District. After some debate, this
lmotion was lest yeas Q, nays al.
The bill was postponed, and the
Senate went into Executive session.
and afterwards adjourned.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
The House met at III o'clock
The Journal OF yesterday was read
and approved.
The bill granting land to Illinois,
Mississippi and Alabama, to aid in
the construction OF a railroad from
Chicago to Mobile, was finally pass
ed and sent to the Senate.
Mr. Herris, of Illinois, made 81
movement TO introduce Almon A.
Babbitt as a delegate from Utah; but
on motion of Mr.. Ashmun, the whole
subject was laid upon the table.
Onmotion ofMr. Bayley, the rule
was suspended. and the House re-
solved itself into Committee of the
Whole (Mr. McLane in the chair,)
and entered upon the consider alton Of
the bill providing for the further ex-
ecutlon of the treaty with Mexico,
by making an appropriation of 81
36OOOU to pay the instalment due to
That government on the 3Ist Nav,
1851. ~.
Mr.. Disney moved an amendment
to the bill providing that the pay
ment OF the money shall be by and un
der the direction of the Secretary of
the Treasury. Mr.. ID. alluded to
and condemned some conditional
contract which had been already
made by the Secretary of State with
an English house. He was, there.
fore, in favor of fixing the response
bllity for the proper management of
the matter upon the Secretary ofthe
Treasury, where it should Ielong.
This he was anxious for, because
under the late administration. the
Secretary of State and the Secretary
OF the Treasury both attempted to
avoid the responsibility. ~ t'p,,
Mr.. Jones said he intended to move
TO amend the amendment by striking
out Secretary ofthe Treasury and
insert the President of the United
States, and thus leave the RESPONSE
hllity with the President instead of
the Secretary of the Treasury
Should his amendment be adopted it
would leave the responsibility where
the bill now leaves it. So
An animated discussion followed,
in which Messrs. Bayly, King, Jones,
McClernand, Vinton, Disney and
Carter participated. The bill as
amended by Mr.. Jones, was report
ed to the House and finally passed
yeas 1873, nays sc. 'a Yn

TIE PosITroN OF THE SoUTH.-
To all those Southern moderates, in
Congress and out of Con, ress, who
have promised us an 'honorable ad-
justment," to these and to such as
these we would speak, and not to
Clay, or Benton, or Footc, for long
since, in the night of our necessity,
silently and stealthily did they steal
from our camp away, TO the ranks of
the enemy. Their treason, foul and
unredcemed, and darker than Ar
no!d's treachery, threw a deeper
gloom over us then, bringing despair
to the weak, and shaking the faith of
many an honest heart in the truth
and worth of mans humanity. In
Toombs and Stephens, and such
men as they, we never had any con-
fidence, we never placed any trust,
and were therefore but little disap-
pointed with their disaffection. We
knew that their feverish brains were
full of cunning sophsms and visiona-
ry schemes, and that their hearts were
deceitiul and desperately wicked
We knew that, to their understand
lags, honor meant the applause of
the powerful, and patriotism their
own elevation, and therefore we are
not surprised to find them wanting in
this the hour of our adversely, or to
see them clapping their pnny hands
and shouting in the midst of the host
which is triumphing over us. But of
you, who were our leaders, in whose
counsels we trusted, of you, we the
millions of the South demand ,chere
IS the fulflment Of your promises2
Where as the peace, the security, the
"honorable adjustment ?" Where is
the triumph Of right ouer might, of
truth oUer .fandticism, that you hare
promised to Sho,o as? Where the
restoration of .1raternal feeling, and
the rc-knitting of the bonds of union
which were TO bring back the golden
reign Of the Constitmioa, when all
worshipped at the altar our fathers
built, and no sacreligious hand dared
to touch the sacred shrine?
All tie measures have been con.
sumated, the consumation of which,
we were taught to believe, would
work our political destruction, and
bring dishonor to the memory and
shame to the very graves of our
fathers. The fair fields and golden
shores, with all California's immeas-
urable wealth and illimitable prosper
ity, has been forever closed against
us. New Mexico and Utah are
gone, and with them large part Of
Texas. Our extension is forever
prohibited, our prosperity cut off,
while around us, in the madness OF
fanaticism, are arising millions upon
millions who wrathfully threatento
press us to death a92k

Appearances are decoitful, for
though the South sustains to the
Union, something like the relation of
an injured younger, to old and tyr
annical brethren, when natural love
and affection half obliterates the
sense of wrong, yet repeated injury
will at length produce a total cs-
arrangement, and natural affection will
be converted into ferocious and un
natural hatred. This hour has come,
and tiercely will she turn upon the
brethren who would sell her into
Egyptian bondage.
MASS MEETING AT PENDLEToN.

meetings are being held in many 9TH
