quanled with its good citizens and could therefore speak
freely with them on the topics in question.
II affords me pleasure advise you that have not yet
conversed with single citizen, either democrat or wing,
who IL net ruling and anzous TO have this difficult and
dangerous question settled in the mode and
ner proposed by the committee, although they do not APP
prove OF all the features OF the BILL rather than let

More Cheering signs.


The Senate is now earnestly proceeding to action. Sew
ersl votes were taken the three last days. which
were Of important character. The Wilmot Pro-
viso has been voted down by a majority Of ten. An
amendment Of Mr. Baldwin, Of Connecticut declaring the
Mexican laws in force in the Territories rejected
on Thursday An amendment Of Mr. Yulee. declaring that
the constitution Of the United States is OF force these
Territories was adopted on the same day.
Various other motions have been made, and decided
to give cheering signs of the success OF the scheme Of
adjustment Werepeat with more confidence even than
could have said few days ago, that the skies
brighter. and trust that the day coming for the settle
ment Of this distracng question, and giving peace to
country When some Of friends who have appeared
little bitter upon certain points have amended the bill
to suit their own views tried in vain to amend il,
earnestly hope that they win be found voting for the
Adjustment in that spirit OF Cancellation and compromise
which s 30 necessary to reconcile the complicated inter.
esis and feelings Of this great confedemcy.
