WASHINGTON, December 2S-Mr. Crittenden says
that Yesterday was the darkest day of his life. The
Senate Committee of Thirteen had long session,
and Mr.. TOOMBS forced vote on each proposition
separately-every Republican Senator voting in the
negative This satisfied Mr.. Crittenden that there
was no longer any hope for Cancellation, and Mr..
Toombs announced that all efforts of settlement
were closed and he should's inform his constitu-
ents.
The Committee had quite lively time. 1t was
agreed that whatever the Republicans did not agree
to should not be adopted compromise was use
less unless both parties agreed Five Republicans
and eight Democrats were on the Communicable.
Seward was absent Wade took strong Republican
ground, and was very positive; also Gollamer and
Doolitte Grimes was also firm against conceding
Republican principles.
An four voted steadily against ali of Crittendens
compromises as the re-establishment Of the
Missouri line extended to the Pacifc-an Territory
South to be slave, and all North, free; against
amendments to the Constitution, a change in the
Fugitive Slave law. OF course, the Republicans
all voting against them. They were abandoned, and
nothing was accomplished. All hope of anything
effective from this Committee is now abandoned.

The Senate Committee of Thirteen were in session

slavery below never TO be disturbed was discussed

Messrs. Rice and Powell joined its advocates in
voting for it. and Messrs Hunter TOom5s, and Davis

would go for II if the Republicans would propose II
in good faith The other propositions submitted by
