WAsHIseTos, Monday, Junss.
There was very spirited and able debate IN
the Senate to day, In which nearly hail tue Sens-
tors participated. No one spoke more man ten
minutes At time while listened. Mr.. WEBsrhK
never spoke more clearly and iorcioly. IL 10
ouence be the Art Of Persuasion, be Is greas O'-
tor; and yet he did not persuade me that Il "oaio
b, useless and unadvsabIe TO have the Ne" Ter

will kill the bill; if they don't they will probably
hill it. can hardly see by this corner but o'ie's
may.
But lust think Of Senators, who have been TAX
ing Of Slavery in the Territories these hVe or SIX
dresry months, spologizing for making o'iei
speeches to day by saying that at some J@ture
time, they should express their views more iuiy
on The subiectl How can two or three hundred
men deleht in affecting the ears Of long sutfer-
ire public in this way Have they no bowels Of

most windy Senators do stop your talking and
betske yourselves TO voting
Mr.. CRowELL Of Ohio made good Free Soil
speech to dsy-clear, calm and pertinent lie Kept
almost strictly TO the question before the House
"shtI California be admitted and showed am
pie reasons why she should be. But what avail
resssns when the Propsgsndish will permit no
votes TO be takenl
Mcssrs. BococK and COIcocK the former from
Virginia, and the latter from South Carolina made
Pro5lavery speeches each side OF Mr. Growers
and these wore out the day They were opposed !"
the Comprounse still more 10 the Presidents PLAN
and N G slifornia any how. The Wiimot Proviso
wa. their utter adherence. President TAYLOR was
6eponneed by BococK rs insidiously hostile and
,reseherous 10 the South, and obsequOusly devoted
TO Free Soil By the way Has any one earnest
Propsrandist avowed himself satisfied with Gen.
T,YIoR's course in relation to California and the
Terri.oresl Who can name one
Mr. snvEsrLR Of our State closed the day with
aspeech in favor Of California Free Soil aad the
Union. 1t was good one, they say; but the Cause
wants Votes not Speeches.
Gen. BAYLY has an excuse ready for bis neglect
TO report the Appropriation bills up to the seventh
month Of the session. He has been unable to obtain
a quorum Of his Committee at any meeting for
some time He ought, then, to reportthe names OF
the absentees No man has right to take place
on that vitality important Committee who does not
mean TO discharge its duties faithfully. There is
too much Of this Sinking among members placed
nm important Committees, sometimes at their own
solicitation Publishing the sbsentees frequently
would do great good.
Rut this absenteeism on the Ways and Means Is
Soreeone conclusion. 1t part OF the game. l
think IL can be proved that Mr. BAYLr himself has
declared that none Of the great Appropriation bills
shah pass the House until the Slavery question
sbalI have been settled That is what be means
.ny how, and that is why he has not reported III
now Mr.. yIsros has been for some days good
as,l enero,sed by the EwisG investigation but
,ha concentrations should all have been reported
lone before that began. Beside there is large
ouorum Of the Committee without him.
The late news from New Mexico renders it more
n,yently necessary, in my view, that this session
.houla not close without settlement Of the North
arm boundary Of Texas. l still hope something
may be done. H. g.
