Vire Resolution passed, yeas 28, nays 20.
On motion, the Senate laid aside the morn

cans would have remained beyond the Rio

Mews. Sevier, Pierce, Foote, Jefferson, Da
v4lnd Clayton.
_ resolutic;t4was offe red providing
for additional clerks in the Pensions office.—
An amendment was offered by Mr. Cobb pro
viding that the new clerks should be appoin
ted by Mr. Marcy, and spoke at much lengtli
• in its favor.
Andrew Johnsoni of Tenn .ispoke very for
cibly against the resolution, as needless.—
'rho present system cost enough; the clerks
were paid enough; they %%mild work more and
play lees. lie called the previous question,
but it was nut agreed In. Mr. Cache moved
the postponement of the resolution, which
prevailed.
A resolution was 'adopted to stop the debate
on the President's Message ti:l 2.o'clock on
Wednesday.
Jan. 25.—1 n the Senate Mr. Bagby, of Al
abama, submitted a resolution, which lies Over
declaring that Congress lias no power oter
the subject of slayery, and that the conquest
of a count)) , is legitimate 'means of acquisi
tion, and that is Mexietattierritory be obtain
ed by treaty or conquest, Congress nor a Con
ventioti, can interfere with slavery.
Mr. Baghy staled that .The declaration of
his resotutions was recognized by the laws
of nations—thut territory ; hereafter acquired
by treaty or conquest, it will not be lawful to
prohibit slavery, or to impose restrictions up
on other property, by the terms of a treaty or
act of Congress. Every State coming into
the Union must be left equally free as to the
establishment of her institutions; provided
they are of a republican .character. Ile said,
at present, he only thought proper to make
brief explanations, prefacing his_ resolutions,
and that he would speak his sentiments more
fully at a future day.
•
Among other business., Mr. Dickinson, of
New York, offered a resolution proposing to
repeal the act of last session, relatite to post
age on newspapers, franking ; &c.,
Jefferson Davis reported a bill r ppropri
ating $200,009 for the erection of - liospital
and other quarters, on public grounds, near
the barracks at New Orleans, far the accom
tnodation of troops going to and returning
from Mexico. He said nothing more dis
courged enlistment than the sufferings our
troops had experiencad at New Orleans.—
The bill was read to ice, reported and passed.
Jr. Cass moved to take up the special or
der of the day, which was the ten - regiment
bill.
Mr. Crittenden first wished the Chairman
of Military Affairs to answer the follott ing
questions—first', whether General Scott had
been recalled orsuspended; secondly, wheth
er General NVortli had been i'elieved from ar
rest. or remained iiispexied.
Mr. Cass replied, that General Scott had
been suspended, loud that the command of the
-army now dehott l ed on General Butler. Ile
said that Geoeral Scott will attend a Court of
Inquiry nt Perote, when all difficulty with the
higher officers would• be investigated. He
believed that Gen. Worth had been relented
from arrest.,
Mr. Crittenden said that he felt obliged to
the chairman fur the information communi
cated; but that he had heard with astonish
ment the proceedings adopted with regard to
Gen. Scott. •
- The special order of the day was then ta r
ken up, then Mr. Clarke. of Rhode Island,
spoke oneshour in opposition to the bill.—
When he bad concluded, Mr. Dix, of New
York, signified his desire to speak to the bill,
but gate way to a motion made by Mr. Cam
eron to go into Exccutive session.
• After some tame spent therein, the doors
' were opered and the Senate adjourned.
• HOUEC.--In the House a bill was reported
from the Committee on Claims, ronkinv , pro
vision for the widows and 4rpliatia of soldiers
and officers of the army, killed in service; or
deceased of wounds.
On motion the House resolvel itself into 'a
Committee of the, hole on the state of the
Union s , iu refteence to the Preeidant . * annual
meesate.
Mr. lkdinger of Virginia, spoke inia r fctice
of the President ' s refusal to communicate Mr.
Correspondence. He was willing to
-vote for all calls for information, because he
had confidence in the judgment of the Execu
tive, and did not deiire to place him in false
position, by appcariog afraid to make any call
demanded by the House. The President in
reply did answer and gifie - all the information
be could cc mmenicate - consistenly tt ith the
public service, lle had told them how Santa
Anna got'into Mexico. Ile had only refined
to state what the public interest required
should be kept concealed, lie sustained the
President by various precedents during the
Administrations of Washington and Julie Q.
Adams, and stated the circumstances of the
- last case, and the remarks of John Randolph
thereon. 11c - charged Tompkins %%WI untruth
in saying Polk's reliisul was based on a sort
of royal prerogative; it was on public inter
est. He regretted the blood shed in Mexico,
and wished it would stop; but, he asked,
would gentlemen be willing to buck out and
forsake our rights? No, no—no turning
back, this great country must ""go ahead"—
that is the motto. The President admitted
Santa Anna because he knew him to be capa
ble of fighting nothing but chickens, and to
kick up a row in Mexico. Our goternment
woo's' have found it more difficult to hate
Prosecuted the war had Paredes retained pow
er, tt ho,was our worst, most effect ire and dan
gerous enemy.
After lie bad concluded, Mr. J. Dixon Ro
man, of Maryland, neat tut k the floor, and
made an nble argurnentagaitist the %tar. He
showed it to be unuecesary and unconstitu
tional. He went , into the consideration of the
' boundary Tiestion, Ile said Gen. Taylor did
not white the movement to the left bank of
the Rio Grande. When told by the '3'ecretti
ry of War that the Rio Grande was to be his
destination, Gen. Taylor said, if that is to be
the ultimatum, the best course will he to take
up a position ns near the river as possible.—
,When he bed concluded, Mr. Green, of Mis
souri, next took the fluor and made a patriotic
speech in support of the war and of the ad
' ministration.. Ile particularly replied to the
argument, so often used us to the war being
onuecessatily begun.

had received a letter from the acting Secre-'
Secre
tary of the Treasury; stating the increased
expenditures in the War Department, amount
ing to four millions of dollars, reit icied it in
dispensible that there should be immediate
action ou the loan bill. This rcpu'rt of the
Secretary of the Tieastry had aft yet been
laid on the desks of the members, and for the

Mr. Asl mutt replied that the printer was
now in the liousi., and that he at eted that the
said tables we're now in the hands of the Sec

report was` wholly ou ing to him,
Mr. McKay ansuered that the gcntlctnen
had information enough, and urged to early ,
action on the bill. ,
Mr. Huchoncsiated that the bill had been

General Scott has issued an order ass - 'sping

from the papers received from the capital.
The American Star, of the 31st December,
says that it was known'that a large force of
