The Union, in an article entitled ‘‘ England the Representative of Free Institutions in Eu- rope—the Anglo-French Alliance,”’ says: “* However much we may find to condemn in our great cousins, we have no just right te sus- t them of treachery to the cause of free insti- utions. They maintain a monarchical system, but their progress towards popular enfranchise- ment bas been steady, uniform and certain, ever since the great charter was wrested from King John. * * * # Indeed, if we were ambi- tious of the distinction of prophecy, we should say that any attempt on the part of France to in- tervene in American affairs for the purpose of re- establishing monarchical rule on this continent would test the strength and ultimately break the back of the Anglo-French alitance.”* The same paper contains the Report, in full, of the Secretary of the Interior.

If we are not mistsken, more than one Senator who ultimately voted to select another in Mr. D.’s stead expressed such a disinclination. However, the motion to make the change prevailed by a vote of about 17 to 9. On voting next to select achairman, Mr. Douglas received but one vote. Itis un- derstood further, that even that Senator will su:- tain the action of the caucus; which we hail as evidence that the Democracy of the Senate will under no circumstances temporize upon Mr Douglas's new squatter sovereignty doctrine. If continued as the chairman of the Territories Committee, and acting as the representative of his own sentiments and those of the Reput- lian party, rather than of the Democracy, as last winter en other vital slavery questions, he can do far more harm to the Democratic party than as a simple member of the committee. It was but the duty of the Democratic majority of the body to guard, at any hazard of news- Paper misrepresentation, against the results of any such contingency; and that duty has been fairly and firmly discharged. Earnest wishes were expressed in the caucus that Senator Douglas may renew his affiliation with the Democracy ; in which none share more sincerely than ourself. But, while his last published opinions are flagrantly at war with the doctrine of the Democratic rarty on the slavery question with reference to Territories, and while his professed followers in every non- slaveholding State are in open alliance with the Republican party, pursuing to the bitter end, kuife (political) in hand, every Democrat in public life who sustains the policy of the Democratic party of the Senate upon the Ter- ritories slavery question, we feel that to have failed to substitute some other gentleman as chairman of their most important committee in @ political point of view, would have been an act of timidity and weakness combined, by no means to be justified by any plea of a desire to harmonize the party. Mr. Douglas can bring about ‘‘harmony in the party’? inaday, by openly abandoning his support of the anti- slavery heresy he holds in common with the Republican party of the Senate chamber, and at the same time taking due care that hereafter thoze in Indiana, Pennsylvania, and elsewhere, who ¢laim to follow his teaching—to be his im- mediate supporters—cease to make common cause with the Republican party, against the candidates. principles and measures of the Demceracy. : P. 3. Perceiving a despatch in the Baltimore Sun, of this morning. naming Senator Hunter as among those who (in the caucus) sustained the propriety of continuing Senator Douglas at the head of the Territories Committee, we have tossy that that inference is wholly unwar- ranted by the position he is well known to have taken in thediscussion. Thus, he is un- derstood to have avowed his emphatic belief of the necessity for baving the sentiments of the Democratic majority of the Senate on ery questions faithfully represented in those of the chairman of the Territories Com- mittee; at the same time expressing sincere Tegret that, to accomplish that object, it had become necessary to make the change in the absence of Senator Douglas; and also on account of the possible injurious politi- cal effect of newspaper misrepresentations of the proposed action of the caucus. He is far- ther understood to have voted against Mr. Douglas when they proceeded to yote on the nomination. Sgcarrer Sovergianty 1x tue Hovse.— The notification given yesterday in the House by Mr. Morris, a Douglas member from Illinois, of his intention to introduce a bill virtually to surrender the Government of the Territories hereafter into the hands of equatters in them, is in capital keeping with his leader's new doc- trine of the legal right of squatters to legisiate against the security of slave property in their limits. With that doctrine admitted as a sound one, and the privilege of electing the territorial expounders—Federal judges—of constitution and law, accorded to the first hordes sent into new Territories under the operations of Aboli- tion aid societies, what will the South's rights of coequality in the Territories be worth, pray? The notification given by Mr. Morris involves Pretty strong evidence that the protestations of identity with the Democracy now being made by Mr. Douglas in New Orleans, are r ly worth about as much as his promises ere leaving Wash- ington that in his canvass he designed ignoring bis issues of the last session with the Democratic party; redeemed, it will be recollected, by his subsequent declarations that the Democracy of Congress had endeavored to perpetrate a great fraud on the principle of civil liberty, and that their Republican-party opponents on that oc- Montgomery, Lower Peach Tree. lear, cold. lear, 36°. lear, cool. lear, cool. lear, cold. clear, cold. lear, cold. clear, cold. «clear, cold. cclear, cold. 2 Lelear, cold.

In tHe Sesate, yesterday, after our report closed, Mr. Rice presented several joint reso- lutions from the Legislature of Minnesota, in favor of an overland mail route to the Pacific and other matters; and a numberof memorials from the tame, asking the improvement of t! Mississippi river; grants of tands for railroads; to aid in the construction of a wagon road from some point on Lake Superior to the South Pass of the Rocky mountains; the construction of several military roads, 4c. Mr. Rice gave notice of his intention to in- troduce a number of bills, to wit : For the erection at St. Paul, Minnesota, of & custom-house, post office, court rooms, and other United States offices; for an overland mail from St. Pau: to Puget’s Sound; for a wagon road from Fort Abercrombie to the Pa- cific; and for an appropriation to defray the expenses of volunteers. Adjourned. Ix tae Hovsz, Mr. Chapman continued, at considerable length, to argue the charges against Judge Watrous, in advocacy of the resolution for his impeachment. It seemed to him, that after Judge Watrous had been called upon by the Legislature of his own State to resign, after public confidence in him had been shaken to its foundation, he owed it to himself and the integrity of his court, to seek no longer to avoid atrial. He should either demand it or resign; for what availed it if the House dis- missed thecomplaints? The public mind would not be quieted until be had left the bench or vindicated his innocence. Mr. Tappan replied to the charge of one of the papers in Texas, that he bad signed, as a member of the Judiciary Committee of the Thirty-fourth Congress, the report for the im-. achment of Jede Watrous. and that now e had signed the report exonerating him. The whole proceedings at first were cr parte; neither Judge Watrous nor any friend of his was be- fore the committee. A majority of the com- mittee decided that whatever prejudices there might be in the State of Texas, the committee had nothing to do with them, and that Judge Watrous could not be permitted to defend him- self from them. The Speaker laid before the House a com- munication from the Treasurer of the United States, containing the accounts of the third and fourth quarters of 1857, and the first and second quarters of 1853; ordered to be printed. Adjourned Preceedings of To-Day. in tae Smxate, today, communientions were received from the Secretaries of the In- terior and Treasury Departments, transmitting certain documents called for by the Senate at the Ll ession. Mr. Hale moved that when the Senate ad- journ it be to meet on Monday. Mr. Allen moved that after the reading of the journal on Monday. the Senate proceed to the election of the standing committees. Mr. Hale objected, as he had heard of no ar- rangement to that end. Objection subsequently withdrawn. Mr. Rice presented a bill for the construction of a wagon road from Fort Abercrombie, on the Red River of the North, to Seattle, on Puget Sound, in the ferritory of Washington. Re- ferred to Committee on Military Affairs. Also, a bill authorizing the Secretary of War to pay the expenses of Captain James Starke’s company of volunteers, incurred by the order of the Governor of Minnesota. Referred to same committee. Also, a bill for the establishment of a North- ern Pacific mail route; referred to the Commit- tee on the Post Office and Post Roads. Mr. Ward offered a joint resolution for changing the plan of the custom-house at Gal- veston, Texas: read twice. and laid on table. On motion of Mr. Clay, the Senate adjourned. In tue House, Mr. Boyce moved that Mr, Maury be admitted to a seat on this floor, as a delegate from the Territory of Arizona. Mr. Jones, cf Tenn., said that Arizona was not yet an independent Territory, bat part of New Mexico; and, therefore, was not entitled to a representative on this floor. The resolution for impeaching Judge Wat- rous, of the E»stern District of Texas, ause of alleged high crimes and misdemeanors of an official character, was taken up, and Mr. Billinghurst proceeded to address the House, holding that this case was very differ- ent from charges made against a legisiative or executive officer of the government. In the latter case, the people could reach the parties casion were the saviours of the country. It is| themselves, and elect a successor.

In relation to the removal of one of the cases in- volved, Mr. B. said, that as party to the suit Judge Watrous had consented for the removal of the case from his Court at Selma to the State Court at Austin, and then asa juage on the bench he ordered the removal. He summed up these charges to show that Watrous is guilty, first, of entering into a cor- Trupt feagie tac the unlawful institution, in his own court, of suits, in which he had large per- sonal interests, for the purpose of removing them beyond the reach of the opposing litigants and of Texan juries; second, entering into a conspiracy to deprive people of their lands through the instrumentality of forged papers; third, presiding at the trial of causes in which he was personally interested ; fourth, that he permitted the officers of his court to perpatrats numerous illegal acts, without rebuke. Mr. B., to show how well these charges were sustained, read portions of the testimony of lustrated by the movement of which his sympa thizing House colleague gave notice yesterday.
