Mr. Badger quoted from the Old Testament and the New Testament, to show that slavery isa divinely re- cognized mstitution, and that its age is cosvat with the eraof Abraham. Upon these quotations he based an able and consistent defence of rlavery as it exists in the South. and the good policy of giving a portion of the new territories for its overflow. Mr. Badger conti- nued bis defence of the slavery of the South with fro- quent illustrations in its defeuce. Five o’erock P.M. MI. DIX GOS FOR FRER SOIL, Mr. Dix raid that the North tad proceeded on the ground of non-interference. Where slavery was found actually existing, there they left it. They had not in- terfered with slavery with the States. With the single , they left to extend where it nly nominally. They had stood firmly upon the ¢ on of the constitution. They had al- Ways done so, and will continue to doso, More : they had opposed all interference with slavery in the Dis- trict of Columbia, where Congress is authorized to exercise jufisdiction in all cases whatsover. He re- ferred to the fac-simile of 2 letter of Mr. Monro», dated Mareh 4th, 1820, to show what were the opinions of the cabinet of the President at that time, on the ques- tion propounded by Mr. Monroe, 1. Has Congress @ | right, under the power vested in it by the constitu. tion, to make regulations prohibiting slavery in the territories? 2 Is the eighth section of the act which | pasred both Houses (prohibiting slavery north of 36 30) | consistent with the constitution? Mr. Causoun, who was Secretary of War at that time, said that he was satisfied that he never could have given An opinion on the subject. Mr. Dix remarked that he had received from the son of Joh Quincy Adams, then Secretary of State, an extract from his diary! He read it, to the effect :— “On the 34 of March, 1820. when I came this day to amy office, [found a note requesting me to call at one o'clock at the President's house. It was then oni I went over. Mr. Monroe expected to receiv Dills, (one for the admission of Maine, and the other to enable Missouri to make a constitution) for his signa- ture. He had summoned all the cabinet. to ask their opinions in writing on two questions: 1, Whether Con- gress, under the constitution, has the right to probibit slavery in the territories ? and 2. Whether the eighth section of tbe act for the admission of Missouri into the Union (interdicting slavery north of 36:30) was | applicable only to a territorial State, or extends after | the territory becomes a State? The first question was | unanimourly agreed to—that Congress has power to | rohibit slavery in the territories.” The tact, Mr ix believed was, that there was some difference of opinion ; Mr. Adams conteuded that Congress had the right to bind « State. On the 4th of March, Mr. Adams remarked that the last question, to procure ‘unanimity, was to be modified. Onthe 5th of March, | he says :— The President sent me yesterday the twe questions in writing, to be deposited in the Depart ment of State. The first question was in genoral terms; the second was modified, so as to inquire whe- ther the eighth section of the Missouri compromise Dill was consistent with the constitution. To this I can answer by a simple affirmative. On the 6th of March, I took to Mr. Monroe my answersto the two constitutional questions. Mr. Cacnoun—Is that an extract from Mr. Adams’ journal? Mr. Dix—It is. Mr. Ca.uoux—When was it made? Mr, Dix—At the time. Mr. Catnounx— Have you examined into the State Department, to see whether the document is there filed? Mr. Wrstcort—I made an examination, but I could find no such paper. Mr. Ca.noux—If Lwrote anything on the subject it las enirely escaped my meimcry. The facts of the Platement do not correspond. Probably there is sone explanation of circumstances of which we know no- thing. If Thad given a written opinion, I could not have forgotten it. I may have assented to the first proposition, Dir. Jonson, of Maryland. took up the fac letter of Mr. Monroe, und showed what interlin were made; also, to remark that the word “unani- mous” was stricken cut. There was no doubt that Mr. Adams had spoken as to bis own views. Mr. Catnoun suid, that if the Cabinet ex- ressed opinions on this subject, they must be in the State Department. He would take an extract from no man’s journal. J know, eaid he, the circumstences attending the passage of the Missouri compromise. The Northern men who voted against it were racrificed when they went home, In 1819 and 1820. wy ever (to be lamented friend, Mr. Lowndes, and myself, boarded in the same house.

On con- sultation with him, we came to the conclusion that the great question was, whether Missouri should be re- manded back into a territorial state, Our opinion was, that ehe should not. This being decided, the only remaining question was. whether Missouri shall be a State in or out of the Union. The speech of ny friend satisfied all intelligent men that Mis-ouri should not be remanded. The argument is conclusive; and then gentlemen from the North found themselves in this position: shal! Missouri be an independent State’ In that event, she would Lave been mistrees of a very large domain. The purty were, therefore, glad to get the compromise Mr. Dix was willing that the question should remain as he had stated it, and the testimony as he had found it. Mr. Foorr asked, as Mr. Adams was a violent parti- san and a fanatic, whether (he statement was sworn to or not? Mr. Dix replied that he had read it simply as a state- nt of fact. It was a diary of the time the cirew ces occurred. He then referred to what was said by the fathers of the republic against sl Flerida and Texas, he said, were acquired at the expense of the blood and treasure of the people; yet the people of the North did net ask for a portion of the scil.

Mr. Burien made a few oxplanations as to his re- mark: delivered yesterday. Six o’ctock, P. M. MR. DAYTON UPHOLDS THE PROVISO. Mr. Dayton commenced a speech by say'ng that he was dispoted to look at the bill as a matter of compro- mise. He wiched to say a few words, to justify the, vote he should give. At this point Mr. Manoun, with his hat in his haud, approached Mr. Dayton, ané said something to Lim in a low tone of voice Mr. Davtex (to Mr. Mangum)—“ Not on my ac- count.’ This was understood to refer to the motion directly after made by Mr, Mancwn, that the Senate do now adjourn Mr. Haxnecan asked for the yeas and nays, which were ordered, and being taken, resulted—yeas 17; nays 30, (While the vote was being taken, we heard a Sena- tor say, “ We might as well sit out the bill;’ and ano- ther, “ Oh. yes; we'll remain here until daylight, if necessary ; and s third, “ We'll have to stay here tome night, and we might as well stay this”) Mr. Darron, (at twenty minutes past six.) said that, although he should vote against the bill, he looked upon the measure asa fair effort of compromise.

Why was not the Missouri compromise before the Senate?’ What bas become of the proposi- tion of the Senator fran Kontucky and vbat of the Senator from Indiana? Mr. Crarros explained that those measures were lost—4 to4, This bill was then agreed to. His opinion was that there could be noadjustinent of the questioa unless this bill could effect it. % Mr. Bent. inquired woether this proposition was pre- viourly thought of at all? Mr. CLavton replied that a suggestion of some of the principal features of the bill was made im private cou- Verration among members. ‘The system was never fully developed untii afcer all others had failed. Their consultation took place, and this b.llwas matured step by step. Mr. Canovn said that the committee were brought toa dead siapd. ‘bo impression was that they could. do nothing more.

Mr. Be: it came by chance, Mr. Ca.noux—Every part was deliberated upon. Mr Ber1i—1 mean that this was a thought that flashed on the committee, Carnoun—It was made precisely as the conati- tution was made.

If the Supreme Cours, in a made-vp trial between John Doe and Richard Roe, should decide adverse to either the North or South, wiald that settle the question? Wouid either party be satisfied if the decision was not in its favor? and the Supreme Court, in any event, would be the vietim. It is said ip the Nerth that the decision would be in its favor—the South, perhaps, claims it also ; and, I ask, if a measure which is capable of such delusion, of being perverted to the ends of both par- ties, is not dangerous and defective? The gentloman from Delaware (Mr. Clayton) ovcupiex an envixble Position | He is not only iid-way as regards his State, ut he will also entitle himself to the gratitude ef tne victorious party; and es he takes no sides—as he will not decide who ‘that parcy will be—he can turn to the losers and say, “I did my best for you!" Could other gentlemen oceupy the same position their task would be easy; but itis not so. Iam not so much in favor of the extension that I would, unless for the preservation of the South, be willing to fasten sla- yery upon an unwilling population. No such cae, however. does exist, or can or will exist, as re- gards the population of New Mexico and Califor- Dia It may be asked, what more do you expect? What more do you expect the North will agree to? I would take the naked Missouri compromise, and trust to the honor of the North, to say would they exclude the South. Mr. Bu1LER—Will the Senator propose the Missouri compromice. with the amendment proposed by the Se- nator from Kentucky? If he does, | will vote for it, for one. Mr. Beri—I did not say I would propose the Missouri compromise, but I believe it does not prohibit slavery, even impliedly, and { would trust to the honor of the North for our just rights. But as to the value of the country of New Mexico, there is not more than three percent of it Mt for cultivation. How is it in New lexico 2 Not one acre in a hundred can ever be cul- tivated. The only portion that is, or can be culti- vated is the narrow border of the Rio Grande, and that is filled now to its capacity of population. In the great busin of California not one acre in @ thousand can be cultivated. It is a desert—a vast and irre- claimable waste of naked sands and mountains. There is a strip of good land along the coast of the Pacific, in Californie; but this was utterly insigniticant compared to the harmony of this Union. There are now 150,000 persons there, and I don't believe the country is capable of supporting a much larger population—and then could only be large encugh for one S'ate. California is certelaly a flae country but it is limited—it could not be converted in‘o more than two States. Ifwe are to quarrel, let us quarrel upon something more than a mere barren abstraction, Let the North and the South not go to war upon a question of no practicul benefit. The Senators from the North who have spoken, h: uttered not their own individual opinion, but th their States. Where does the sting exist? Ia it cause of the horrors of slavery? Is that the cause ? What was the'cause in 1820 and ‘21 of the extraordi- rary uprising, upon the admission of Missouri ? Was it the horror of the slave trade? Was it any sentiment of sympathy, of revenge for wrong done this degraded racy? I ‘never heard it was, Political ascendancy, rendered more poignant by the democra- cy of Virginia, whose sons had been predominant for thirty-five years, was the moving cause. I will not say this is now the only cause, but I wish it to be distinct- ly understood that this feeling enters largely into the dispute. This it is that constitutes the real sting of slavery in the people of the North, and! do not vay it is ap unworthy ferling, or one which would not be in- dulged in by the South, did the same state of things exist. Another reason of the slavery sting is the sup- pored feeling of the South as regards the tariff. There ure additional motives, and I wish the honorable Se- natcr from Delaware to bear them in mind when he votes for this bill. Why, sir, if you were to tack on the Wilmot proviso to this bill, you would place the North in a far worse position than would the bill as it now stands. They would have to search round for fresh subjects for agitation—for poor as is the soil of Califor- nia, it is rich in agitating topics. if you pass the bill as it now is, If you want to punish these gentlemen, pass the Wilmot proviso, and we can then consider whether it is better to part with you ur not, and I confess the country in dispute would have to be much more valua- ble before I agree to dismemberment. Mr. Bell passed into various extraneous subjects, complimonting the people of New Englandas being brave, honorable, cant- ing, ghort seeing people, who when it came to the struggle, would no doubt boldly stand up for liberty, and the political, constitutional rights of the people. An explanation here interrupted the current of the argument—the subject of the controversy being the territories of the Cherokee. Chickasaw, and other tribes, and the treaties under which said territories were ceded to the government, Mr. Bell, Mr. John Davis, and Mr. Calhoun, being implicated in this incidental illustrative branch of the general discussion. Mr Brit, in conclusion, said he would prefer the Wilmot proviso,or their introduction at once as States, tothe present bill, I would, raid he, make them an Indian territory—abandon them to what tribes might chocse toinhabit them. I would prefer, Sir, that the inhabitants of New Mexico and California should de- clare themselves tree and independent of the United States, than that they should create discord between 1 Let them make a New Germany or a New Iroland of the country on the Paci- fic, and I wiil say God speed th 1 do not object to their being a part of us, but ri than they should prove a source of discord between us. | would sever them.

BERRIEN STRONG FOR THE DILI. AND THE souTH. Mr. Branres expressed his regret that he found it necosrary at this late hour (half-past 10 o'clock) to ad- dress the Senate even for a brief period, He denied that this discussion had been sought or brought about by the South. It came by the invertion in the O bill of @ proviso against slavery—a mere usele ton assertion of power on the part of the North, which the South felt bound to move tostrike out. No one ever imagined that slavery could exist in Oregon, and the wanton act of dragging the question into the bill is chargeable solely to the North, The object of appointing a committee was to avoid # discus- sion on this exciting subject of slavery. We ask, will you allow the law to decide, and gentlemen ‘answer no, we will not, We ‘ne- ver will agree toituntil thore is engrafted on it the erdinance of 1787. As be wenton he maintained that the Dill provides sufficient protection for the citizens of California and New Mexico, and their property. He next pleaded a the bill did not skulk the ques- tion. The reason why the committee had not referred in the bill to African slavery, as distinguished from Peon slavery, was, that in ‘specifying in the bill ‘hat the territories of California “and New Moexi- co should have no power to legislate on African slavery, would be to declare Congress that Mr. Urwam enid, that the time had arrived for the settioment of the qu on; now is the time to secure the territory from the foottsteps of a slave. He main- tained that Congrers hes constitutional power to pass laws inbibiting the introduction of slavery into all free territory; that it is expedient now to enact such a law, emd thet the bill mow before the Senate will not se- ure ‘he (orritory therein mentioned from the introduc- tion of slavery. Ifslavery be permitted to go there now, African slavery bad been abolished in her ter- ritorles by Mexico. whieh was a question not for legislative assumption, but for judicial investigation He deprecated and desecrated the principle of the Wilmot proviso, following the grounds taken by Mr. Calhoun, in support of the equal rights of the South to the territories of the Union, He would tell tho Senator from Obio that theee new territories were acquired by conquest, (11 o'¢lock, nearly all the ladios eone from the galleries—a dozen bright samples of the fex yet remaining, howevor. on the sofas outside thy ber on the floor below.) aud that the South, (s reia- forcement of five ladies in the galleries.) that tho South char d in the expenditure of blood and treasure for these nequisitions ; and whem the Senutor from Ohio voted with me aguinst these aequisitions, had not the South, at the of Buena Visra— Mr. Hannecean—That battle was not fought when We passed that bill.

Sir. [ was grieved to hear the Senator from Ohio present this Tf gst porfeaiture of the institution he so xbhors.

His object. was simply to ‘neutralize the two extremes by prerenting them iA juxtaposition Mx. Benninn was gratified to have the explanation ; but not even for rhetorical display would he have gone to thisextremity of sarcasm. With some other general remarks, Mr. Berrien concluded bis extended speech in support of the South, and this new compromise. [Twelve o'clock at night, all the ladivs cleared out of the galleries.

Being in a minority on this qu tion, the ayes and noes were called, and at this signal the Senators came flocking in from the lunch room, [After wasting a large portion of seven months time at eight dollars a day, the Senate of the United States, suddenly seized with a fit of economy, resolve that the debate on this bill shall close to-day. ‘The question precipitated upon them. There are Senators who desire to speak at ali hazards; but the resolve is inexorable, and they continue in session ull night long, the hot! day of the year—each party on the case determining to set out the other. the luzislation of the country being resolved in to a simple question between the two parties of which shall outset the other.) Adjourn- ment lost 12 to 32.) Mr. Nixes began with most astonishing energy (at two o'clock and past) to denounce this compromise He said he should only speak for about two hours or so. (Von hu) He would speak in behalf of a class of men, which seems to have been forgotton, the non- slaveholding free white men of the South. ‘This bill was ® miserable contrivance, nota single principle of liberty was sustained ; every free born idea was compromised, and the bill was a misera- ble contrivance to sinuggle slavery into to free territory. In Oregon the will of the people was superceded by & truckling to the slave power; im California and New Mexico the provisional govern- ment ordained was a despotism of three men; for to there three judges you confide the legislative, the ex- ecutive, and the judicial power, Who does’ not see that the bill, with an ingenuity £0 awkward as not to be concealed, opens California and New Mexico to this peculiar bieesing of the South. Mr Niles, im thin strain, softening his tone long heat, spoke on till three o'clock in the worming, when, finding that there were only three or four Senators left in the chamber, he moved that the Senate adjourr. (‘Ayes and noes.” “Why, it’s daylight!

He went on reviewing the history, and object, and the results of the annexa- tion of Texas; the power of the patronage of the exe- cutive; his control of those judges of the territories, and the ulter defencelessners of the bill to against the ingrers of slavery into California aud New Mexico. He continued, as if in a rossion by open day- light to a fail Senate, to speak to the empty seats, (for after the vole upon the adjoura: mearly all the oporable members of the Senate moved out aga‘n into tide rooms to resume, yorbees their brokea siu 1. ders.) and he spoke with ad pint over wll the vart soope of ib hich would be n stale (At three. the recorder hereof went out to the fountain fora drinkof water, ‘The wasted morn Nae upin the East, the morning stars wero shining, varyland market people were coming in with che! the Capitol grounds were dark and silent, and 'y below us was still, and its people asleep, little dr: oming of the speech of Mr. Niles] Yet Mr. Niles went steadily on and one of his objections to the ad- mission of slavery was that it would give new iife to the ocean s!ave trade, and hamper and retard the pro- of the territory in enterprise. population. and in !, mora), aod political happiness.

Almost any government would be acceptable now to those territories, especially tothe Mexican. Oregon is bad off for the want of protection; but New Mexico and California hive no government at all, excopt the Alcaldes. He epoke of the Poon slavery there; and of those poor Irdiaxs who work as naked as they were born, all day lonz,in the fields, and are fedon swill, scooping it cut of the trough with theirhands. There are twenty men in te city who coald prove this to be true. These peop'e wanted protection; they wanted a@government. The publ'c Jands of Califorria were im great confusion, and the debts incurred there re- quired payment. Government wes wanted there, and hence he shovld voie for the bill.
