Correspondence Of The Tribune
WASHINGTON, Thursday, Nays
The reception the Report Of the Commit
tee of Thirteen met with yesterday on the
part Of portions of the Southern Senators, BODIES
no good to a speedy aud satisfactory termina-
ton Of an embarrassing question, that has al
ready too long absorbed the time and the at
tep,ion of Congress. Those who supposed that
the scheme of Disunion expired with the breath Of
its author the late Mr. CALHOUN, were undeceived
Yesterday 10 the irregular debate that followed the
reading Of the Report. CLEMENS OF Alabama who
has not the sagacy nor the self coatrol to conceal
the real design of himself as well those VINO are
acting with him, avowed determination on their
part 10 oppose not only the Compromise under all
circumstances, bat even the admission OF California
with her present boundaries. The ultra Southern
men. like the ultra Northern men, are determined
that the agitation throughout the country shall be
kept up; and if a separation OF the Slave from the
Free States does not follow, it will not arse from
the want of a combination between the ultraists OF
the two extremes OF the Union.
One great object the South is aiming at was
not revealed in anything that as yet has escaped
them in debate. 1t is this They are deto mined
If possble, to defeat the admission OF California,
either with or without her present boundaries as
well az the admission of any other Free State
until such period that Slave State can come IN al
the same time. II Mr. CALHouss doctrine oil al
"Egu,librium" cannot be maintained anywhere
ese they are determined to struggle to the bitter
end for its preservation in the Senate The North
then by continuing its war upon compromise
founded upon The provisions OF Mr.. Clays PROPOSE
ton. are contributing to the very result that the
ultra Southern men are struggling tor II Cahior-
mia is admitted with her present boundaries, she
must come in under the Compromise proposition
or abe goes over TO another session OF Congress
This il the opinion OF our shrewdest Legislators
here and the proceedings in Congress for the next
few weeks viii test the accuracy of such conc.u'
sion.
There is also a Political movement connected
with the Southern opposition to the Report OF the
Committee of Thirteen that it may not be out OF
place here to notice. Mr.. BUCHANAN is playing
not only high, bat desperate game for the Presi-
dency The ground be intended occupying in the
early part of the session as bid for the Southern
Democratic support, and which was foreshadowed
in letter be had written for publication but was
subsequently suppressed, was taken from him by
CAss and others, who anticipated his movements
He at length determined to become more S0atAeF"
than any of his rivals and visited this city and dis
closed to the South that be was for the Missouri
COMPROMISE line to the Pacific, with full recogni-
ton Of the institution of Slavery South Of that line
He has made the CALHOUN men believe that if
every other Compromise 10 defeated, and the ad-
mission Of California procrasnated, they could Sc
cure the Missouri Compromise line to the Pacific as
the price to be paid for the admission OF California,
and tina, he could bring them strength enough from
the Free States to consummate so great desidera-
'tum 10 them. This, from what have gathered
from Southern source favoring this project, has
exercised large influence in bringing about the
demonstr alton that was made yesterday by the
South against the Report OF the Committee and
the principles il embraced. We will see whether
in tho end this desperate game VIII add to the
chances of Mr. BUCHANAN for the Presidency. /
admit he has made the most advantageous bid for
the Southern vote that has yet been attempted but
before il 10 accepted the South should ascertain
whether Mr. BucHASAS is politically solvent, or
whether in fact he 10 not bankrupt even in his own
State.
