WASHINGTON, MAY Cd, 1858.

w AShlNniON' NuN -'' i''p'
A number Of Southern Democratic Mem
hers of Congress have united in requesting
the President to- confer on Judge Loring of
Mass, the position Of Judge Of the Court of
Claims, made vacant by the death Of Judge
Gilchrist.
The Northern Democrats do not relish it.,
and it is doubtful.
Last night, u large crowd collected at the
Presidents House, where he was ecrenaded
by the firing of cannon and the music of the
Marine Band Senators Bright, and Green,
and Representatives Clancy Jones and Eng
lish were screnaded Mt their residences, and
made speeches of exutation over the passage
of the Kansas Bill, regarding it as measure
for peace not only for Kansas, but the whole
Country
Gov. Walker, in his recent letter to Nlessrs.
Cox and Lawrence, said the Conference Bill
was interpreted by him as in precise conform
ity of his views and course, not only in Kan
sas, but since his return, and in following the
path where his duty and his conscience led
him, he must support it. lie adds, the odious
Lecompton Constitution born in fraud and
baptlsed in perjury, will be defeated by an
overwhelming vote of the People of Kansas,
thus demonstrating by practical result the
truth of my Interpretation that the bill docs
in fact submit the Constitution to popular
suffrage for rejection. With such bill, and
such decision of the people under it, no
formidable effort will ever be again mad
to withhold from the people of inchoato
States, vote for or against ratification or
rejection of their State Constitution, and the
olirarchic doctrine of Constitutional Sove-
reignty, will be abandoned
