WAsHiNGroN, May An address to the
seceders from the Charleston convention,
showing tue urgent necessity tor their return
to the national democratic convention at the
adjourned meeting in June, was in circulation
to day, for the signatures of members of con-
gress. The movement is intended to forestall
the meeting OF the conventions in the seeding
states to supply the vacancies occasioned by
withdrawal OF delegates.
The number OF delegates passing through
Washington on their way to Baltimore to at.
tend the constitutional union convention is
LARGER than it was anticipated. All the states
will be represented, except those of the Pacific
coast.
1t is supposed that not more than about 20
republican members OF congress will attend
the Chicago convention.

Mr.. BURLINGAME, from the committee on
foreign relations reported bill authorizing
the raising of the mission to Sardinia to a full
minister. Passed. Territorial business was
postponed till Friday.
Mr. SHERMAN offered resolution that the
debate on the tariff bill shall close tomorrow
at o'clock. Adopted.
Mr. SHERMAN then spoke on the tariff ones
ton He said the act of 1857 was crude and
i'll digested, and ought never 10 have passed.
Three years ago, when it went into effect,
there was a surplus Of Sl7, 900, 900 in the treas
ury, while now the country is upwards of
sos 000,0 900 in debt. He appealed to facts and
figures to show the ordinary receipts were far
below the expenses of government and point
ed to several sources Of expenditure, where
large reductions could be made in the appro-
priatons, but he had little hope Of any materi-
al reduction while party spirit and sectional
ism were rampant in the land, nor was any
thing in the way of revenue, in the future, to
be expected from the public lands. He there
fore advocated the passage of the pending bill,
which would yield from S60,000,000 to 500,
100000 per annum, alfording at the same time
reasonable projections to the interests OF all
sections of the country.
Messrs. SCHWARTZ and GROW also spoke
in favor Of the bill.

THIRTY Sixth CONGRESS.
SENATE.
MOEDAY. Nav

MoEDAY, May Z.
Mr.. DAVIS spoke in favor of his resolu.
tions, which he said were little more than
a mere announcement OF the principles OF
the constitution Our present political dit
ficuIties he commended were the same which
the founders of the government had to en-
counter. He would not, however, argue about.
natural and Inherent rights, but would plant
himself on the constitution, which all have
sworn to support. That constitution is the
law of every American citizen, and no ques-
ton outside OF the forms OF law and order is
contained in it. One great source Of out diff
cuties, he codtcnded, is the theory that our
government is Il government OF one people,
instead of compact between separate sover-
eighties. The desire Of separate and indie
pendent committees brought about the early
settlement of this continent. The Declaration
of independence was not for colonies united,
but for each colony separate, and the Consti-
tuition was not by the people en- niaSSe, but by
the states sovereignty. Mr.. Davis sustained
these propositions by various historical illus
trations, and closed this branch of the subject
by cOntending that the states could at any
time, when deemed necessary, resume powers
which they had only delegated to the general
government.
After referring to cotton as the great bond
of union between the States MIR. ID. referred
incidentally 10 the question OF prOtectlOn as
sorting that the general government had no
power to limit the importatons OF any state,
and asking if the states are to be taxed for this
protection, by what right is slave property de-
prived OF its benefit! On this issue, after
days discussion, we saw the democratic con.
vention at Charleston, broken UP, and the par
ty waiting joytully for its funeral. He had
faith, however that the democracy will live,
and that it would honestly meet the issue, and
that the masses Of the country would sustain
it. Mr.. ID. referred to the fourth and fifth res
Olutions, which asserted the right of slave
property to protection in the territories, con-
tending it was the duty OF Congress to see this
protection was afforded. He also combatted
at length the doctrine of squatter sovereignty,
denying that non-intervention, as formerly un,
derstood, took from Congress all right to legis-
late with regard to slavery. He quoted Henry
Clay, TO show that he who was the originator
of the doctrine, never gave it the interpreta-
ton claimed by the advocates OF popular SOW
dreignty. His remaks on this point and other
subjects, were continued at length, but much
of his speech was naudible. The speaker
complained Of indispostion.
Mr.. BROWN replied to the remark Of Mr.;
Davis that the second resolution OF his series
afiiliates with the views of Douglas, and he
withdrew the second and third resolutions,
substituting one, stating that it is the duty OF
congress to protect slave property in the terri
tories. Mr. Brown briefly urged immediate
legislation tor the protection of slave property
in the territories. Mr.. Clingman commenced
speech tavoring non-ntervention.
Adjourned.
