Northern men 10 fight up 10 the issue, or they
might lose the respect OF Their constituents and
those eight dollars a day and the mileage We
shall have a struggle upon California; but the
South are in a slim minority, and We cannot divine
how they are To prevent the passage of the bill.
From the day Of such unconditional admission, we
must look 10 the !shvle Convention. Ii that
snould fzze out, the old parties will drum up
agun into line on Cuba and the tariff Let US pray.

House taking Recess, after Some Tai ID s'rS-

Governor Crittenden was yesterday sworn INTO
the office of Attorney General lie was in the
Senate today, looking so natural and at his ease
that one could hardly realise that his old familiar
face had not been there, smiling upon his brother
Senators every day, for the past two years. Take
John j. Criuenden By and at large, up and down,
inside and outside, among friends and among OPP
ponents, and there is no other such man to be
found. He is great, good and honest, and is uni
versally beloved by all who know him, without
regard to political afiinites
Mr. Mckennan arrived last evening, and he and
Mr. Conrad will, no doubt, Immediately enter upon
the discharge Of their respective official duties.
The cabinet is complete. The members of it,
and President Fillmore, are now known as able and
patriotic wings. Their W orks in future, will speak
iJT them. By these ye shall know them.
The course OF the Senate for ten days past, has
been such "a deserves and will command the
hearty appreciation Of the country Its passage of
the Texas Boundary BILL the Utah Territorial BILL
the California Admission bill, and the New Mexico
Territorial bill, all by large and respectable M 10
rites, cannot fail TO have great weight with the
members Of the House, when they come to act
upon the same important measures.
II is earnestly hoped, no doubt, by very large
majority of the people of the whole Union that the
House will pass the bills which the Senate has
Iase,d, for the settlement of the slavery question
and The preservation of the Union These passed,
and the passage Of the fugitive slave bill in law
also, will cause such state of rejoicing tn rough
out this broad land as has never yet been known
while the old world will look upon us with more
respect and admiration than ever
But let the House defeat those healing and con-
servative measures which the Senate has passed,
and thus give rein TO wild agitation which looks
speedy dissolution fthe Union, and what mourn
ing, and sorrow and gloom will follow all this
broad republic, and with all lovers Of freedom in
Europe
Lei us hope for the best Let us hope that the
House Will pass all Of the important bills in ques-
ton. And lei US hope that both houses will then
60 straight To work and pass all the general appro-
priaion bills end such other mertorious bills, both
Of pubhc and private nature, which wisdom and
justice proclaim ought to be passed.
In the Senate, to-day, the protest offered yester-
day by Mr.. Hunter, in behalf of himself and nine
other Senators, against the admission Of California
INTO the Union, with her present limits and which
was discussed at the time for an hour or two was
again taken W, and its merits discussed warmly
and eloquenIly by Messrs. Hunter, Benton, Bad
and hers
AT TOUR O'Clock p. M the discussion was going
on. Mr.. TurasY, of Tennessee, had the floor and
was warmly defending his own course Of conduct
a few minutes after he had concluded. and Mr..
Benton had, boob and eye-glass in hand, given the
history OF the protestsi the British House Of Lords
The protest was laid on the table by vote of %
yeas TO 10 nays
The Territorial bill for New Mexico was then
taken up, and read a third time and passed yeas 27
nays 10. The Senate then adjourned over TO Mon
day, alter toing into executive session.
The House went early into Committee of the
Whole, and took up the Civil and Diplomatic bill
MIR. Duer made powerful and effective speech in
defence ct President Fillmore's coarse relative to
the affairs Of Texas and New Mexico. lie upset
Mr. stephens, and endorsed Mr.. Toombs com
pletely
Mr.. McLane followed with an ingenious speech
ogains, President Fillmore's policy.
Mr.. Nenabie followed in n vehement speech, on
the came side 18th Mr.. Nc Lane.
Mr.. Ashe next took the floor, and spoke against
the Presidents policy, for some tirse, when he
gave wBy for motion to be made, which was for
the committee 10 take n recess until seven O'Clock
ShisestpinP, which was adopted.
The Houye shows that Il means to pass the Civil
and Diplomatic bill without much further delay
Money IL wanted. The members want IL aud, OF
course, they will soon pass the bill which is TO
Tcplenieh their pockets.
The bill for tn Ebony line OF steamers; and the
proposition for the purchase by the government Of
the great Winder building, now occupied by go
vernmeni, are gaining friends here daily. II is
pretty generally believed that they will both pass
Congress.
IL suggested that Mr.. Bolts or Mr. Pendleton
will go To brazil or TO China. Both will not be APP
pointed. Mr. David Todd has been long enough
al lilo. wing will soon have his place
IL is stated that Mr. ID. ID. Barnard, OF Albany,
New York, has been rendered the mission to Ber-
I'm. THIS may prove u mistake, and the mission
may be tlled by the accomplished Mr.. lIilliard, of
Alabama. NOg roTons,
