From Washington.

WASHINGTON, May 10.-The Senate com
mittee on territories will meet tomorrow to
consider the Kansas bill 1t is clearly evil
dent, from former conferences on this subject,
that the democratic majority will report an
amendment altering the boundaries, as | an
nounced three months ago, with view to de-
teatlng the admission this session, knowing
the House will never consent to such atera-
ton. This purpose appears more fixed since
the developments at Charleston.
The Senate judiciary committee have under
consideration the Sanborn case, together with
the resolution referred to them some time
since, and will shortly report bill giving full
authority to the Senate, through its officers,
to compel the attendance of witnesses. They
intend to mature bill giving them the same
authority and power that the courts possess in
compelling the attendance of witnesses, which
will meet all cases that may hereafter arise.
The steamer Philadelphia leaves here to-
morrow for Norfolk, and will bring up the ia
panese, who will be allowed some DAYS rest
before the government lavishes upon them the
honors now in preparation.
The bill passed by the House to-day repeats
all laws in New Mexico establishing African
slavery, and also repeats section prohibiting
the courts from taking cognizance of any cor
recton which masters may give their ser
wants.

tate action on bill of such great Importance
Mr.. ADRIAN insisted upon the report being

MIR. MILLsON moved to reconsider the vote,
ordering the main question.
MIR. BINGHAM said the democratic side chal
lenged Us TO take the vote without discussion.
Mr.. HoUsToN-We said we were ready TO
challenge discussion, not vote. But you
have a gag upon us, and we are willing to
meet the issue.
Several democratic voices called for vote.
Mr.. MILLsoN's motion was rejected.
After further debate the bill passed-97
against 80.
Consideration of the territorial bills was re-
sumed.
Mr.. THAI Err moved substitute, proposing
to create the jefferson land district with a sur
veyor general, &C.
Mr. GROW raised the point, that the substi-
tute was MT germane, and the speaker sus.
tanned this view.
An appeal from the speakers decision was
tabled by I majority.
Mr. GARTRELL desired to offer an amend
ment to each of territorial bills, five in mum.
Der, prohibiting the territorial legislatures from
excluding slavery.
Mr.. ADRIAN gave notice of an amendment
leaving the people of the territories free to
regulate their own institutions in their own
way, subject only to the constitution.
MIR. HAsKIN also indicated an amendment
authorizing the holding of convention, to
form state constitution, when each territory
shall have the requisite population for mem
Der of congress.
On motion of Mr.. Grow the bill was post,
poned to Saturday and amendments ordered
to be printed
The House went into committee on the
tariff bill. MoRRILL's bill, with few slight
notifications not affecting its general princ-
pies were agreed to, 80 against 81 The com.
mittee rose and much confusion ensued, prin-
cipally as to getting in an amendment raising
aduty on tiax-seed, from ten to sixteen cents
per bushel. Rejected The bill passed, 105
