The Democrats of the Senate held The most import
ant caucus of this session yesterday and discussed
the report of the Select Committee to whom Messrs.
Browns and Dayiss resolutions were referred from
IL to O'Clock. The attendance was large, Mr.
Hammond and a few others only being absent. Mr..
B,ger went to Philadelphia to arrange the pro-
grsmme for the Reading Convention on Wednesday,
bus signed the report, which was thus raade uRan--
nous.
This agreement was reached week ago, as L
then announced, but was delayed for day, when
they would stand adjourned. The Committee re-
commended Mr.. Days's resolutions substantially,
with modification of the fourth in phrase, but not
in substance, defining the right of protection to
Slavery in the Territories, and the remedy, in case
the Territorial Legislature and the Judiciary were.
unable to afford it, by Congressional legislation A.
long ard animated debate followed the report, in,
which a majority of those present participated.
Messrs. ToOmbs, Pearce, Clins9ao Salisbury,
and few other Southern Senator's, questioned tho.

Party ought TO nominate Douglas; we hold also
that the People ought to defeat him. Not merely
because bis doctrines and inculcatons respecting
Slavery are unsound but because he ia the respon-

every American who deplores Human Bondage in
our country-Ougbt to be reused to special activity
by such nomination. That is q selfeyident

to the Conservative sentiment of the country to
array itself against him. Our Conservatives pro-
fess to deploIe and condemn Slavery agitation.

A dispatch from Halifax announces that the
clearance of the wrecked steamer Hungarian has
been found, from which it appears she had three
hundred and sixty passengers on board. This, in
all probability, is an error. A LIST of names, tele
graphed from Boston, purporting to be the list of
cabin passengers by the Hungarian, proves to be a
list of passengers sailing in her on her last trip out
from this country MessIs Sabel & Seare, agents Of
the Grand Trunk Railroad line, publish a list of
twelve steerage passengers "bOoked" at Liverpool
and Cork. The Purser Of the VigO which arrived
here on Friday last, thinks the Hungarian had
nearly forty cabin and some sixty steerage passen
gers, when she took her departure from Queens
town. This is the sum of all the information we
have and so much time has elapsed since the wreck,
that we fear there never will be much more obtained
to add to it, except the names Of the lost as re-
ceiyed from the other side Of the ocean.

The steamship Baltic, with California dates to
the 9th inst arrived at this port early on Sunday
morning. Among her passengers was the newly
elected United States Senator, NJ. S. Latham
The main features of the news have been antic
pated by the overland mails which arrived last
week. Our correspondents letter, however,
contains many items of interest. The news
from South America is unimportant. From b.
li7ia we learn that President Linares was labOrng,
under great disadvantages, to raise an army with
which to meet the attack of Castillo with his Peru
Wan legiOns. The whole country was in great
state of discomfort, and cOnspiraces were going on
everywhere. Peru was about as badly of. Bush
ness was very dull, and high revolutionary spirit
prevailed. BY the treaty between Peru and Ecua-
dor, il is said, the latter has lost everything, and
become mere dependency upon the former.

Col Lane tried to decline in favor of Mr. Nor
ton, who canvsssed the State for Governor four
years since, but the Convention insisted that Lane
should run and he consented. He was regarded
as one of the ablest young Wings in the XXVIlth
Congress, nearly twenty years ago. He has hardly
been since in public life, but presided over the Ma
tional Cony ntion that nominated Fremont and
Dayton. Mr., Morton, being pressed TO accept tho
second place on the ticket, consented-an act Of
magnauimity which will be gratefully remembered.
Mr. Harrison is grandson of Old Tppecauoe.

Each District delegation chose its own Delegates
TO Chicago without dctation or interference from
any other quarter and the result is msst satisfac
tory, though there is doubtless wide diversity of
preference among the Delegates as 10 National can
ddates. No attempt was made to pledge or fetter
them in any way, and all go to Chicago free and
anxious to make the strongest possible nomination.

then selected, as follows:

The proceedings of the Court of Oyer and Ter
miner on Saturday last which we report in another
column, possessed unusual interest. Young Lane,
the profigate clerk of the Fulton Bank, who, to
crafty his passion for mistress and his love of
display forged upon the Bank to very heavy
amount, involving his aged father in pecuniary run
was brOugh. up for sentence. He had no word to
offer in his own behalf Judge Ingraham in q brief
and feeling address, sentenced him to three years
and three months in the State Prison. In sentencing
another culprt, Mortimer Shay, for murder, the
Judge reverted to the fact that during the present
term he had tried no less than three persons for
murder committed in the same place, Crowns
grocery, Five Points. Of the fourteen cases of
homicide tried by him this term, there was not one
which was not clearly traceable TO indulgence in
intoxicating liquors. The criminals, toe, were all
young men.

OF these proceedings, it was not for the Presdent

refusal to exercise the electoral franchise could in
validate an election fairly held under lawful
ity even if they had not voted at the third election
1t is true that the whole Constitution had not been
submitted to the people, as l always desired. but
the precedents are numerous of the admission of
States into the Union without such admission. 1t
would not comport with my present purpose to re-
view the proceedings of Congress upon the Lee
compton Constitution. 1t is sufficient to observe
that their final action has removed the last yestige
of serious revolutionary troubles The desperate
band recently assembled under notorious outlaw
in the southern portion of the Territory to resist
the execution of the Laws and to plumber
citizens, will, doubt not be speedily brought to
Justice. Had treated the Lecompton Constitution
nulty and refused to transmit it to Congress,
it is not difficult to imagine, whilst recalling the
position of the country at that moment, what
would have been the disastrous consequences both
in and out of the Territory, from such deriection
of duty on the part of the Executive.
Peace has also been restored within the Territory
of Utah, which, at the commencement of my ad-
ministration, was in state OF open rebellion

mated by fanatical spirit, and entrenched within
their mountain Businesses, might have made a long
and formidable resistance Cost what it might, It
was necessary to bring them into subsection to the
Constitution and the laws. Sound policy, therefore
as well as humanity, required that this object
should, if possible, be accomplished without the
effusion of blood This could only be effected by
sending military force into the Territory, sufici-
emily strong to convince the people that resistance
would be hopeless, and at the same time to offer
them pardon for past ofenses, on condition OF
immediate submission to the Government. This
policy was pursued with eminent success and the
only cause for regret is the heavy expenditure re-
qured to march large detachment of the army to
that remote region, and to furnish its subsistence
Utah is now comparatively peaceful and quiet, and
the military force has been withdrawn, except that
portion of it to keep the Indians in check
and to protect the emigrant trains on their way tc

they can keep him from doing so. This
is certainly strange oversight in the
Constitution, to compel the President
to execute the laws, and still not give
him the. right to do SO. Our Union is
worth but little if the power nowhere
resides to keep it united. 1t is pain
fully evident that Mr.. Buchanan is not
equal to the present emergency. He
evidently desires to satisfy the South
that his mild objection to the doctrine
of secession is only designed for pub
lie effect, and that be has no ''personai

On the FIRST day of the present ses-

the Homestead Bill, introduced by him
Immediately after Mr.. Buchanan vetoed
the Conference Bill, passed by both
Houses last session, and we are happy
to say that through the resolute conduct
of its author, it has already passed the
House. Whether it will pass the Sem
ate or not, we have our doubts, and if
it does, it will probably encounter the
Presidents veto. The passage of the
Homestead Bill thus early in the ses-
sion. proves that the Republican Rep
resentatives do not intend that the dis
union Juror shallinterfere with the peo-
pies business. -
