Quite « gathering of white, pink, and blue bonnets, over the border, and on the sofas below outside of the outer circle of the Senstors Mr. Webster is expected to spevk to-day, and the ladies desire to hear his solemn thunder. MORNING BUSINESS. During the morning hour, the following resolution, by Mr. Cuanxer, came up :— Reeol That the President of the United States be requested to transmit to the Senate copy ef ‘a de- spatoh to the United States Coneul at Monterey, I. O Larkin, Eeq? forwarded in November, 1545, by Capt. Gilles} ot the Marine corps, and which was by him destroyed before entering the port of Vera Crus Mi ANNEGAN desired to know what application that i, resolution bad to the business of the Senate. Mr, Cianxe explained that the paper asked for wan the copy of w letter which had been lost or destroyed by Capt. Gillespie; and that it had an important beariag upon the eubjeot of the claims which had arisen ia Cali fornia, growing out of th tions there, under Com Stockton and Lt Col Fremont We had had a decument printed of the evidence upon those claims, but it was important to havo ail the infor mation that existed in relation to them. In the bill re- cently brought before the Senate, these claims were pro- vided for to the extent of $700,000. We want, sir, ell the information touching the state of affairs as they existed ig California. and in explavation of the events which have recently taken place. Mr. C. had no objec- tion to giving the President @ discretion in furnishing or declining to furnish the letter, as the pubiic interest may iu his opinion demand. Mr. HanneGan euggested an amendment,to wit: ‘or so much thereofashe may deem consistent with the pub- lic interest.” The amendment was acceptid, and the resolution agreed to. POSTAL CORRESPONDENCE. ‘The following resolution, offered by Mr. Nives, was agreed to:— Resolved, That the President be requested to com- municate to the Senate copies of the correspondence be- tween the minister of the United State: Loudon, and any authorities of the British government, in relation to 4 portal arrangement between the two countries, - . * BILL OF TEN REGIMENTS. The auestion being upon the recommitment of tho ul, Mr. Bernsen took the floor.—With a preliminary ex- planation of the grounds he should assume, he entered upon the thread of his argument He objected to the Dill, because it contemplated wres!ing from Mexico by force what we might fail to get by treaty, or it was to make them yield by treaty what they might not surron- der by their free consent. Sucha proceecing was dir- raceful to a Christian‘people actuated by principles of justice. He denounced all wars of aygression—the sei- zure of territories as the result of such wars by the Uni- ted States; and the contemplated prosecution of the war in the event of tho failure of the treaty, asa part and paroel of the dostrine of seizare by ‘physical force ho question now is, whethor we rhail adopt the men- sure proposed, to oor ro Mexico to the cession of her ter- ritory. We protess to practice juntios—we profess to reverence ths rights of others ; and yet, the proes teems, and voices are bold in the streets, in declaring what must be the ineviteble destiny cf this Union—doctrines os wild as the wildest absurdities of the French revolu- tion. Even in thi: ©, there opinions cf our inevi- table destiny had been boldly avowed. Senators could not be aware of tho evils of such doctrines, and the dan- ger of giving them their countenance. Butthis measure bad been brought in es necessary to preserve our nation al honor. I cannot imagine how the national honor is to suffer by any act of forbearance, or concession, we make to so weak and défenceless @ power as Mexico. ‘Tne measure, too, hed been urged as a question cf expedien- cy, leaving the question of right out of view. Accord- ing to the system of ethics in which Mr. Berrien had been fastructed, the question cf right preceded the q' tion cfexpediency. tle drew an instructive moral f the history cf Athens and Aristides; then Athens, eightern centuries ago, posterity upon higher ground than this nation, in this enlightened aga cf the Christian dispensation? — ‘The President tells us that we are in possession of New Mexico and California—-that we cannot relinquieh them —that we must prop up ® government which will agree to surrender them ; and that if we fail in this, we shall take the territories as by rightof conquest. If we shail, then, accomplish the particl dismemberment now con: templated, what then ? Mr. Footr—The remarks of the Senator in relation to a matter of great secrecy, aro too distinct (o permit hia to go farther without cailing bis altention to the fa Mr. Beanien replied that he bad seid nothing but that which was warranted from the declarations of the President's meseage, in regard to the permanent oceapa- tion, inany event, o: the Mexican territories of New Mexico and California. Mr. Foorn—The Senator now refers to tho Presidont’s mersage, and | undergend him. fis allusions at first, I did not so underetand. Mr. Bernren said ifthe Senator from Visriseippt had attended to his openiog remarks, he would havo « vered that his views were to bo bated upon the Preel dent's mestage, ond the declarations of Senators openly made upon tuis floor, in the discussion of this bill Mr. Beanies then resumed his discourse o¢ proposed dismemberment of Mexico by the bx: procees of mere physical superiority. We are to get te cestion of the proposed territories by negotiations if we can; if pot, them the mask is to be thrown,off, her reals tance is to be crushed, and military forces is to settle the question. ‘This fact Mexico is to underetand at the out eet. Mr. Berrien protested that the constitution of the country contemplated no such policy of territorial ex- paveion as this Our wholo frame of government and the whole charecter of our tnatitutions were opposed to it, Mr, B, reviewed the course of Genoral Taylor prior to his march to the Rio Grande, and defended it, snd expressed his surprise that ths President could not have foreseen the inevitable consequencs of marching Gen- eral Taylor to the very banks of the river,.with @ hostile army on the oppowite side of that fordable stream. Wiint a do 1 We had the right to ohas! agg trate her territories—but that dove, our right termi- pated. Did we not chastise her by the batties of Palo Alto and Monterey? Didwe not do tuat which would deter her from further sagression’? The nationsl honor was appeased in the blood of oar enemies, ‘Ths war ought to have been terminated at Monterey, when Gieu- eral Taylor entered into the armistice We should have told Mexico to go in pence. Mr. Berrien stated that those who were active in bringing on the war would, long, have, ou thie subject, the sane feeling that he He mistook, if they do not deeply depiore the errors they committed by prosscuting the war beyond the capture of Monterey. The war, after that time, prosecuted for the purpose of conquest; and the pene- tration to the Mexican capital was to coerce that go. vernment to yield to our demand for territory. Money has been expended and blood rhed. What is to dry up the tears of those who mourn? What Is to convert the emblems of wo into of joy? Wo are to more land! If we hi have that of resi hilis, snd yalleys, end mountains; which arr the dominion of the continent on which we dwoli, from the frczen ocean of the North, to the extreme Southern verge. Gentlemen hed spoken cf the progress to which tho American people are der Uned, They ay our course is onward. We must not pause, but must rogh forth with impstuosity The President, in his message, says thatthe Mexicen States areas sovereign and independent of the federal as Pennsylvania and Virginia are of our We now propose to acquire the noil of two of the sovereign States of Mexico. Berrien de- nied the power; he protested against it as utterly incon- sistent with the cc nstilution of Mexico, which was al most acopy of our own. Iu the case of Maine, we ex- ercired discretion at the time of the Ashburton treaty and did not attempt to deprive herof territory without her assent. He believed that the Mexican government had no power to yie title to the territory. If one be acquired, it must be by force, and so maintained. It Mexico bad the power and the will, he would regard it asagft pregnant with vital conrequences to the best interests ot the country. If the territory acquired is adapted to slave labor, then arises the great quration, esture no ot which isto produce sectional divisions, which ts to ari | brother against brother, and may reeuit in serious con- sequences to the Union, Ho could not perceive how. if | any portion of the territory is adapted to,slave labor, the | question can b determination of the | ‘Northern people to resist the extension of the peouliar | institution of the South, leaves no room to question the sincerity and determination of the people of the Scuth | ts to any territory which may be ao | uired, aud it isa fact, as fixed and immovable that the people of the North will resiat it, He repeated that he would regard the territory asa fatal gift, and he prayed that the period was far distant when the people | of this country will be divided by seotiouel limis.
