ss-PoIicy Of Mr. Clay = The Nep Southern Organ ~
Hs Objects Increment for a Great Union Party.
Both houses stand adjourned ever to Monday. Tie
hall of the House is undergoing its fitting up with
straw mating &C, for the summer; and wo expect
that order has been given by the Senate for the
same Transformation Of their chamber, another 3D.
journment for that object Monday win be carried
to Thursday next, and from Thursday to the Mon
day following so that 1t is likely the compromise
Is suspended in the Senate for week to come Some
OF the Senator'S who reach home for day or two,
desire to to attend to their domestic affairs which
after an absence of six months require looking Aer.
w may also have Il committee appointed to accompa-
ny the remains of Mr. Elmore to South Carolina. We
presume, then that the desire OF Mr. Clay to hurry
the Oomprsmise will be overcome by all these conside
ratons and that all action will be suspended upon IL
In any event the debate in the Senate is good for
month 10 come, Tor We expect sundry very long
speeches. yet ana among others, by the following
BY Mr.. Dayton, who has taken mp the challenge o
BY Mr. Dpyton, who has taken up the challenge OF
Mr. Clay and intends defending the plan Of the Pre-
sident.
By Gen Cass in defence of tho bill of the committee
BY Mr. Clemens, in support of his amendment for the
Missouri compromise line the Southern boundary
Of the State of California
By Mr.. Webster, in faver Of the plan OF the commit
tee by pece-meal First the bill for California and
secondly separate bill for the territories.
By Mr. Corwin powerful speech in support OF the
Presidents plan
By Mr.. Truman Smith ditto, far Prosy Tru-
man can add anything TO COrw1n
by Hon. John Bell, great speech-probably in sup
port Of the Presidents pan-probsbly In support OF
the commitee-no telling just now, as Mr. Bell Is on
the fence. He wants to sustain Old Zack and don't
like to desert Henry Clay.
ny Mr.. Benton, tremendous speech in favor OF
California by hcrself lie has been collecting mass
OF authorities against the plan Of the omnibus and all
who heard his late controversy with MIR Clay the
appointment Of the mittee. admit that he 10 only
second to Clay IN parliamentary tactics
A number OF incidental speeches from Henry Clay.
II is his duty to fight for the bill at every point Of the
debate BY common consent, IL is admitted he Is most
by Gen. Foote, several explanatory speeches. Some
OF the explanations Of General foote occupy whole
Day ana he must explain and No has perfect right
| to explain.
BY Mr. Seward, a speech against the bill, and the
payment of bonus 20 Texas for the surrender OF the
disputed boundary, and q general debate that
branch OF tn. bill All the cabinet expected to be in
the Senate when Seward speaks, and Ewing will give
| party in the evening-perhaps.
And we may have number of other speschcs-so
that for month TO come, we may count upon the
Compromise bill monopolizing the regular debates Of
the Senate.
The final result stin doubtful. The extreme South
hold the bill in their hands They kill II any day,
IL they choose-they delay it, they pass it
they hold the bill in their power and they do not see N
| to like 1t any better than when first reported
The people tired OF this everlasting dispute Some
way or other they wish it to be settled And in tn:
that Mr.. Clay's plan is the best.
We do not count much upon the letter OF the Hon
Andrew stevenson Of Virginia to Cen; roots s Is
and the Gen. Is identified with this compromise This
letter Of Mr. Stevenson therefore cannot be taken az
any expression Of the public opinion Of Virginia. with
the mission to England in the prospective
We do however, place some value upon the letter OF
John Tyler lie Is out Of the line OF succession Hs
and doubtless also from desire lie has young vito
he has interesting family OF young children growing
up, around him. lie has a rice plantation
convenient TO the herring and shad fisheries OF James
river. and the oysters of Chesapeake bay. lie Ia no
aspirant lie Is no friend Of Henry Clay, and when
hr Txl NM mt In favO of
mony is worth something exposition OF the pub
lie opinion in his section Of the country And We pre-
sumo that Mr. Tyler represents the opinion OF larger
portion Of the people of Virginia than Mr. farewell AL
though we suspect Mr.. Tazeweu has majority OF me
politicians Of southeastrn Virginia tthe pld Domi-
Mon proper, in his support.
But we have very good indication from the south
west Of the country in the hearty support which the
Nashville Un.on gives to Clays compromise IL thai
support Of that Is to be taken the opinion Of
the Tenneses democracy Il Is possible that the Com,
promise win get another vote not heretofore counted
upon--the vote OF Mr. Turney.
And yet with these evidences Of the growing popu-
srty Of the Compromise in the southern states u Is
the policy of Mr. Clay 10 hurry the bill because the
adherents OF the President la the North rapidly
gathering strength and consistency.
Upon the whole, the prospect is Just as doubtful as
ever, Of any settlement at all.
The Sofhern Prsis about to be established here, Is
not to be considered mere temporary thing. which
TO be suspended in the event Of the passage Of the
Compromise. IL anything passes short Of the Mis-
