TeIegraphic Summary.

The Senate were engaged, yesterday, ia the
discussion of knotiy point, viz, whether Robert
Ran oul, who has been recently elected u fill the
place Of Mr.. Winthrop in that bedy, is a member
thereof he not having signled his acceptance of the
sfice cr whether Mr.. inthrop, who APP
pointed Senator by the Governor of Massachusetts,
10 FL the place vacated by Mr. Webster, on that
gentle mans becoming Secretary Of State under
President Fillmore, has a right 10 hold over. To
avoid any demonstrations, Mr.. Winthrop pre-
scented a certificate Of Mr.. Rantoul's election as
his successor, and thereupon vacated his seat.
Mr.. Clay, Mr.. Butler, Mr.. Rhet, and others, took
par in the debate; but the Senate adjourned with
out arriving al any conclusion in the matter.
The House of Representatives were engaged all
day in considering bill establishing a Board Of
Accounts, to consist OF three commits oners, a. a
salsry Of four thousand dollars yea, each, whose
decision on claims should be final.
Additional attempts were mad, yesterday, By
the Massachusetts, Legislature, TO elect Uaited
Sisies Senator for the long term, but without any
esu!t Mr. Sumner, on the second ballot, waited

Our Washington correspondent. informs Us that

very evident that the branch mint was defeated
because of the California branch, and because of

Arrival Of the Empire City-Two Weeks
Later News from California, Oregon aud
the Sandwich Islands

The steamship Empire City, from Chagras, ar
rived At this port yesterday afternoon, and the pra-
cipel facts contained in the news brought by her,
were published in our evening edition We have
hes Of San Francisco newspapers to the frs; Of
January, inclusive, from which ~e select further
items Of intelligence
The Empire City has brought aboIi a million
dollsrs worth Of gold, and large number Of pas
sepQers. The weather at san Francisco was very
exhlsrating and healthfu towards the close OF last
year, and the cholera had ceased to scourge the
uhaDi, ants Business was without any remarkable
activity, AMI prices were low generally, without
much demand for goods he mining still pro.
oeeds BY slow degrees, but il s anticipated that the
qlar'z-c crushing machinery, which will be brough,
90 operate during the spring campaign, viii turn
out very Proitably.
There is considerable activity ia the political
movements IN California. The Legislature was TO
meet on the sixth Of the present month at San
Joe, though there is much hope that the seat OF
government will be removed, temporarily, to san
Francisco. The State s without funds, and either
loan would be necessary, or the federal govern
meni must vote the civil fund, so much desired,
for the necessities of the youthful State.
The approaching election Of Senator, however,
seems TO have been the chief political topic The
friends of the various candidates were working a,
nil points, TO make the best Of tine and means
for their several objects The impression seems to
be that Col Fremont-who published an address
90 exrlain hIs position and views-wiil be thfown
aside, and that a wing Senator will be elected.
Edwin Bryant and John Wetbered, Formerly
member Of Congress from Baltimore county, Mary
hand, from 1sI3 to 1857 are the wing candidates.
The democrats and all other parties see n to be
weak compared with the wings, who have a ma
joriiy in The Legislature, and who will be able, no
doubt, 70 concentrate upon one Of their party.
Whether the plurality or majority rule will prevail.
- doubtful; but il Is to be hoped that the Cafor-
nisns viii not, as Rand olph has expressed 1t,
"es.sblish precedent, which, II established, may
put en- end to this Cove eminent, which Is founded
on the principle that the majority shall govern
Oiher topics connected with the domestic, com.
urrrcal, and mining operations in California, will
be found in our columns; together with some later
news from Oregon, New Zealand, and the sand
