Washington, July 90.
SrsArE.-Mr. Houston presented the
proceedings of meeting Of numerous
citizens Of Texas asserting the right OF
that State to all the territory claimed by
her, condemning the acts Of the Federal
officers in preventing her from exercising
her rights Of jurisdiction, and declaring
her determination 10 resist such interfer.
ence at all hazards, and to the last ex.
remity. Mr.. Houston was entirely
confident that the declaration was made
in good faith. and that they would make
it good.
Mr.. Foote submitted an amendment
providing that the State of California
could moi exercise jurisdiction over any
territory south OF the line of 35deg. 3Om.
until nfter the question Of the establish.
ment of territorial governments should
have been submitted TO the people.
Mr.. Clay took the floor and after a
few remarks, proceeded and addressed
the Senate in favor Of tie bill and in an.
swer 10 objections, urged against it. He
commenced by expressing his firm CON.
viction, that danger to the Union, does
exist nnd that to arrest i, required Inn.
mediate action. He was no alarmist but
mus. be much mistaken in the signs of
the times if they did not betoken danger.
He named the solemn resolves of several
legislatures in favor of extreme sectional
measures in the event Of admitting Cali.
fornia, passing the Wilmot Proyiso or a
bill for the Abolition of slavery in the
Distric, Of Columbia. II he should
have occasion to refer to the plan recon.
mend by the late president he hoped
that il would be understood that he did
so without feelings of unkindness.
In this connection, he passed beauti-
fol tribute to the memory of Gen. Tay-
lor. He said he had known him prob
ably longer than any other man in WASH
ington. He knew his father well, as
one of the best and most intelligent citi-
gems of kentucky. He had known the
late President siuce the time he had en-
tered the army. Although he had not
met him often, because of their respec.
tive positions in different services, he
had always known him TO be a good
honest, brave man. He had covered
his whole head with laufels, and had al.
ded honor and glory to his county
Without saying any thing as TO what
would have been his official course had
he lived. ne must say in reference to
his administration, in connection with
foreign affairs, tina. they had met his hear
~ andcordlal appreciation. Peace to his
ashes.
