DEATH OF MIR. CALHOUN.

The melancholy intelligence OF the death OF
this eminent statesman was received in this
place yesterday morning. He expired on Sun
day morning in the City Of Washington, at half
past seven o'clock. We gather the following
particulars of this mournful event from the tcle-
graphic despatch of the South Carolinian:
WASHINGTON, March 81, 1850.
Particulars of Mr.. Cdlhoun's Dedfh.-Mr.
Calhoun died this Sunday morning, at half
past seven o'clock. Feeling that he was sink
ling, he reused his son, DR.. Calhoun, who was
lin tie room with him, about four o'clock, and
desired him to lock up his papers, (alluding to
the manuscript and proofs of his work on Gov
|ernment, which he was revising for the press.)
He remarked that he was fast going. Mr.. Ven-
able, ofNorth Carolina, and others, were prompt
lily summoned, and Immediately attended at his
bedside. Mr.. Calhoun failed gradually, and
died calmly and composedly, and free from
pain. He retained full possession of his facul-
tiles almost to the last moment. He said but
little; but when speech failed him, he showed
|his consciousness by taking each Of his friends
by the hand, for the long farewell. His face
since death is perfectly lifelike-no greatchange
being perceptible.
Clark Mills, of Charleston, is now engaged
IN taking cast of his face.
The correspondent of the Mercury says:
With his son there were at his bedside, Mr..
Venable of North Carolina, and Messrs. Orr,
and Wallace of our State. Mr.. Venable has
been devoted in his attentions to him for weeks,
and is richly entitled to our gratitude. The
body will be placed in metallic coffin, and de-
posted in the Congressional Burial Ground
until the wishes ofhis family are ascertained

This was great day IN the Senate. The war
upon the administration has commenced Mr..
Cl-meps's resolution, IN relation 10 California, was
laid on the table by the casting vote of the Vice
President. The South will insist on the informa-
top as they believe the State of California fraud.
MIR. Dickinson's resolution, asking the Postmas-
ter General TO explain his prescription, raised the
question whether the President or the CABINET
have made the appointments The wings consider
II an insult upon the President, and that all resou
TONS respecting appointments should be addressed
to him. the resolution hes over, and will, probably,
be changed TO a call on Gen. Taylor. Seward APP
peared to be in favor of all the information desired.
He has policy of his own.
On The Austrian resolution, Mr. Hale made sar-
castle reply TO Mr. Cas-, strongly mixed up with
abotionsm and the slave trade in this dlstuot. Mr.
Clay followed, in opposition to the resolution, on
the exc grounds fore Swallowed in of our de-
spatches last week He made powerful speech.
The resolution will probably be referred, but the
discussion Will do good in Europe. 1t comes up
again tomorrow. Mr.. Webster is supposed to be
hostile TO the resolution, notwithstanding his Bos-
ton speech. The passage OF Mr. Houston's reso-
luton will, doubtless, furnish important in
formation concerning the Texas boundary. Mr..
Benton proposes TO pay Texas for surrenderlng
the dis puted territory-a plan suggested by Texas
herself Its adoption would settle the first diff
Guilty, but would add greatly to the necessity of
loan. The second difficulty is the proviso we
expect that to 60 to General Taylor, and that an
explosion of the cabinet will follow.

nee, as Clerk Of the House, is becoming doubtful ;
