Of Committee.

Correspondence OF The Tribune.
WASHINGTON, Monday, July IS.
This morning the regular labors Of the Senate re-
commenced, after the interruption occasioned by
the sad event of the Presidents death and good
progress was made After the morning hour in
which several bills were passed, Mr.. BUTLER re-
sumed his speech, which was interrupted week
ago by the adjournment upon the announcement
that President TAYLOR was in dying condition.
The long parenthess and the changed circumstan-
ces and the cold and dreary effect ofrecommencing
after such an event what had been an excited de.
clamation in its inception, evidently embarrassed
the speaker and tended to shorten the speech
What was said was rather temperate, considering
the latitude whence itemanated andthe state of the
barometer ia the climate of South Carolina.
Mr. BUTLER insists as a sine qua non on the line
of So 80, with clear recognition Of the right
the STAKEHOLDER to carr his property to tia;
portion of the territory, including that division Of
the present State of California which lies South of
the line. 1t is surprising that people won't die
when their brains are out, as they used to do
These Southern gentry are so accustomed to carry
all before them, from the cradle 10 the grave-so
unused to meeting any opposition which cannot be
overcome by the strength OF wIl-that II seems ut
tery unaccountable 10 them.
They can [ be made TO realize the fact. They
won't believe the evidence of their own senses,
that in the Congress Of the United States, where
thew have stalked over all obstacles and done their
own pleasure for half century without let or HIM
drance there should have grown up power 10 re-
sist which is not all sham, and which cannot be
frowned nor scolded, nor bulragged into nonentlty
Slowly as the north comes up to the sticking point
vet il evidently does come up and there are now,
almost for the first time since We had a Govern
ment some things which the North positively VIII
NOT do and among them is this one OF extending
the Missouri Compromise line TO me Paclnc ocean
Nessrs BUTLER and SOULE, and DAVIS, and MA
soy and CLEMENS, &c. should make up their minds
70 that They should die when tneir Drains arc
out like decent Csristain people
These Southern gentlemen are acurlous stl1y
for the anthropoOgist. The perfectly unsopnisu'
Gated good faith with which they believe tnem'
selves 10 be the pOtentates oil the inverse anus

don't cross their vein they are glorious fellows fal
Of courtesy conyviality and tobacco juice, but try
for one moment 70 bak them OF an object 20 .hwart

ever unjust or tyrannical IN It's conception aud you
