XXXIst Congress.

Monday Jan. l4.-In tho SENATE Mr.. DoU-
GLASS, of Illinois, submitted Resolution in
structing the Committee OH tho District of CO.
lumbia to inquire into the expcdicncy of giving
back to the State of Maryland all that portion
Of the Federal District not embraced in the
corporate limits of the City of Washington, and
also of granting to the City such legislative
powers as are exercised by the Territories of
the United States.
Gen. HoUsroN of Texas submitted pream-
bic and resolution, setting forth that Congress
has no power over the subject of Negro Slave
ry whatever, either in the States Territories or
District of Columbia, and pledging Congress in
advance that ii any of the Territories shall
establish Slavery in the formation of their
State Government, such clause shall be deemed
no objection to their admission as States into
the Union.
Tuesday, Jan. l5.-In the SENATE Foote's
bill providing Territorial Governments for Cali
forna, Dcscret and New Mexico was made the
order of the day for Monday. $500 was ap-
propriated to the Rev. Mr.. Sliccr for extra
praying performed wlAk the Senate was in

The HOUSE elected Mr.. Glostbrenner (Dem. }
of Pa. Sergeant at Arms.
Jan. l6.-In the SENATE Gov. SEWARD
presented n memorial from citizens of New
York for the abolition Of Slavery in the Dis
trict of Columbia, and moved its reference to
the Judiciary Committee. The question of its
reception was tabled, 80 10 10. Among those
who voted to lay on the table, thus smothering
all debate, were nine Northern Senators, De-
mocrats and Q Wings The Democrats were
Bright of Indiana, Cass of Michigan, Dickinson
of n. Y, Dodge and Jones Of Iowa, Douglass
of la. and Sturgeon of Pa; the Wings, Dayton
and Miller of New Jersey. The Frecsoilers
who have been looking for the speedy convcr-
sion of tho Northern Democracy TO Anti-Slaye-
~ had better make a note of the above.
Mr. Benton introduced bill, the provisions Of
which are, very briefly, these. 1t is proposed
to Texas, to cede to the United States all her
territories west Of tho l02d parallel of west
longitude, and north of the south fork of Red
river, which territory probably includes all west
Of the Nucces, claimed to belong to Mexico be-
| fore the war, and all of New Mexico. This
would leave in Texas, about one hundred and
forty thousand square miles. But the bill like
wise proposes 10 divide this extent by the Osth
parallal of Longitude, SO soon as the dis
trict between that and tho l62d parallel
shall contain ono hundred thousand inhabi-
tants, and when il shall have attained that
population then it is to be set off and be entitled
| to admission into the Union as a State, on the
footing of the original States. Texas is also in
| vited 70 concede 10 the United States all tho
claims and rights under the terms of annexa-
ton not already satisfied, and for all these ccs-
sions and Accomplishments, it is proposed "a
agree TO pay her .ffteen millions Of dollars.
