WARRINGTON, Thursday, Feb. IS, 1859.
When the Senate Committee on Territories met
to-day such was the haste of the majority to get
the subject before the Chamber, that time was not
allowed for reading the various reports. Iney
were presented by each party without any knowl'
edge Of the contents Of the reports OF the otner.
Mr. Green was asked whether the rumor In the
newspapers representing Calhoun 81 having made
statement was true, and answered sfirmatively
with some excuse for not having laid il before the
Committee. As this was partially embodied in his
report, it was suggested it should be stricken out
to which consent was given, though passages are
believed to have been subsequently restored upon
some alleged Misunderstanding
The conclusion of Mr. Douglass report was not
written till o'clock this morning, but was in tune
with Collamer's to anticipate the intended snap
judgment of the majority.

Tuesday next to give members an opportunity OF
