POSITION OF SENATOR DOUGLAS The Wash.
ington correspondent of the New York Courier,
dating March "a, writes as follows in regard to
the political position of Senator Douglas;
II am informed by many persons who.have op.
portunlues of knowing that Mr.. Douglas does not
expect any reconciliation with the party of which
he was so lately the admitted popular leader He
considers that party incurably corrupted and per.
verted by the influence of the administration, and
by the seditious and incendiary schemes Of the
Southern secessionists. These men, Mr. Doug
las thinks, have had the power to debauch the
Democratic party. 1t has, under their lead, left
the line Of progress marked out by principle and
Is hurrying along the downward road which leads
to civil cOmmotion and disunion.
Mr.. Douglas regards the administration as an
enemy to the peace of the country and to the
Union. He considers that the very first act of
the executive after the admission of Lecompton,
should that misfortune come upon the country
Will be to bring on civil by an attempt to
force spurious government upon kanzas
lie thinks, therefore, the first duty of all par
ties is t. break down the present corrupt and
treacherous administration. That will be follow.
ed he believes by the reconstruction of sound,
national, and conservative party in the South,
which will break the force of the impending Sc
cession movement, and will afterwards secure the
punishment OF the conspirators against the
Union.
1t is the impression among Mr.. Douglass
friends that he expects the election of Mr. Sew
ard to the presidency in 1860. The next four
years Will be occupied in restoring to the country
that tranquility and order of which the disorgan-
lzing measures of the Democratic party for the
last eight years have deprived it. Such are said
to be the views of Senator Douglas"

WASHINGTON, March PA Democratic
caucus was held this evening, and between
sixty and seventy mem bers were present. Mr.
Cochrane Of New York, was called to the
char, and Mr.. Seward of Georgia, was ap-
pointed secretary.
Mr.. Stephens of Georgia stated the object
of the meeting to be to eoufer together-the
Leeompton and Gnti-Lecompton Democrats
and see If come arrangement could not be
made to unite the discordant elements. He
was ready to hear any suggestion from those
gentlemen upon the Kanzas difficulty.
Mr.. English Of Indiana then offered the
following resolution:
ResOlUsd That Committee be appointed by the
Chair, 70 consist Of ten anti Lscompt Democrats and
ten Ls7ompJon Democrats, whose DUTY it shall be to
confer together and ascertaia whether anything
done to secure haruny and concert Of action in refer
ence to the question Of admitting kauzas into the Union
alu that sad Committee report the result Of their deb
erations to this on Thursday evening next at
eight O'CLOCK,
Mr. English said he concurred in what Mr..
Stevens had said in reference to to the har-
mony of the Democratic family. He liked
the concliatory spirit OF his speech and deep
Iy regretted that such spirit had not been
earlier manifested. He urged the committee
on each side to meet on terms of equality
and as members of the same Democratic
house, hold counsel together. The resolution
was then adopted and the caucus adjourned
TO Tuesday evening next.

Adjournment of the Le2tstHTure.
Both branches OF the Legislature were hard
at work Saturday afternoon and evening, in clos
ing up the business of the session, which, they
doubtless did at late hour. II this is the case,
the Legislature will have occupied eighty one
days in the performance Of their duties. The
length of the last regular session was one hum
dred and forty five days. 1t has been stated that
the present Legislature has sat more hours, dur
ms its brief duration, than its predecessor
The recent Legislature has been eminently
working body. Many acts have been adopted by
it of great Importance The number OF acts and
resolves approved BY the Governor will nearly
reach two hundred We quote from the Boston
Transcript the following statement OF some OF
the most important laws enacted:-The first in
point of precedence is " an act to establish bet
ter system for the administration of the finances
of the Commonwealth" which in fact establishes
the system of general appropriations long the
practice in the general government.
The act to regulate the compensation OF mem
bers of the Legislature fixes theic pay at three
hundred dollars.
An emergency fund, placing in the hands Of
the Governor $4,000 for any contingency, has
cen created by the act for the purpose.
The bank bill which has been adopted makes it
incumbent upon the banks of the Commonwealth
to maintain IN their vaults specie to the amount
Of fifteen per cent. upon their deposits and crcu-
lstion.
The compensation Of the Lieutenant Governor
and members OF the Executive Council is fixed
at $500, with additional pay for every days ses.
sion beyond that of the Legislature.
The bill to change the jurisdiction in mattsrs
of probate and Insolvency merges the insolvent
and probate courts, and is measure of vast mo-
ment. It goes into effect July /.
Among the many resolves adopted are the an
nexed One in favor of the Massachusetts,
Eye and Ear In6rmary; in favor of Albert H
Nelson in aid of the erection Of fence around
Fort Washington, aPpropriating $4,000 therefor;
in favor of William H Ella, granting $500 to this
unfortunate person.
The measures of political cast passed by the
Legislature are the Kanzas and bred Scott re-
solves, both of which series we have already pub.
lshed in full
One amendment to the Constitution has
oeived the necessary two thirds vote of the Leg
islature. 1t makes a residence Of two years in
the State after naturalization necessary for the
foreigner to acquire the rights Of citizenship.

Mr.. TILLoTsoN's SPEECH.-The following is
the substance OF the remarks of MIR. Tillotson of
Worcester on the subject OF the repeal Of the
Personal Liberty Law, made in the House of Re.
representatives. Of Massachusetts, on Friday even
ing, March 26, 1858. The question before the
House was the motion Of Mr.. Cushing of New.
buryport to repeal the Personal Liberty Law:
Mr. Tillotson said that be did not intend to
trespass long upon the patience of the House at
that late hour lit being ten o'clock in the even
ing,) and he should speak at all il the subject
wss not one of vital importance, and one in which
his constituents well himself felt deep in
terest. 1t had been suddenly crowded upon them
just they had reached the very heel Of the
sion in such way that they could not debate it
SO thoroughly they gladly would.
The sentiment Of liberty said Mr.. T.. is dear
to the people of Massachusetts. He mad felt its
pulsauons at the heart Of the State, and knew
that it beat true to freedom there, It did in
other parts Of the old Commonwealth. And the
Personal Liberty Law would he about the last
which he should think of repeating.
Mr. I. went on to show that personal liberty is
upheld by the law OF nature-the New Testament
and the constitutions Of the United States and OF
Massachusetts,.
Having thus given his reasons for sustaining
the Personal Liberty Law, Mr.. 7. proceeded
to close. And, in closing he would say, as he did
in commencing, that liberty is very dear to the
people OF Massachusetts,. The excitement upon
this subject, said MIR. l.. is not feverish and
to pass away. 1t is the result of deeply seated
principle, which will be as abiding as life itself.
The waves of freedom flowing on in all parts
Of the earth elevating and blessing mankind.
BY both precept and example the great and the
good OF the past and the present are urging us to
be true to liberty. The spirits Of departed heroes
which finger around the battle fields of Licking
ton. Concord, and Bunker Hill, all inspire US
onward. God and heaven are on the side OF liber-
ty, aud woe to the man who endeavors to stife
its voice and stay Its course it proudly march
es on to victory.

PROSPECT OF DEFEATING LEcoMPToN The
Washington correspondent of the New York
EUening Post who is well informed as to the
opinions and movements of the radical Republi-
cans, says
" 1t is generally conceded that the opposition
will support Mr.. Crittenden's substitute. Some
Republicans will vote for it as the best weapon
a, hand with which to slay the Administration,
and thus compel peace in Kanzas. 1t gives the
people of Kanzas the power, under their present
Legislature, TO crush out Lecompton. But for
this they could not be justified in voting for it,
Those who are here as the representatives. of the
people of Kanzas say that they will be satisfied
with it, and will hold themselves responsible to
make kanzas free State under it. They would
prefer something better, but if by this substitute
they can prevent blooodshed and civil war, and
secure freedom to Kanzas, they are willing to
take it, Republicans can vote for it under pro.
test, with this explanation. This substitute
goes back to the Senate if it passes the House,
and that body will have to take the responsibility
OF defeating it. BY that time Kanzas will be here
with her legally framed Constitution, now in the
course of construction. Then let us see the AID.
ministration party keep her out of the Union
under it."

speaking III support of the admission of that
territory as State of the Union, branched off

his remarks, defended the deeds and memory
of the Pilgrim Fathers.
The House then adjourned.
