After the presentation of petitions, Mr. Yue moved to take up his resolution submitted yesterday, in re- lation to the invasion of Cubs. Mr. Haze hoped it would not be taken up; as it must lead to debate, and the time had now arrived for ta- king ups special order. Mx, Wensren hoped it would be taken up, it was an important subject, and ought to be disposed of. The question being taken, it was agreed to consider the resolution. Mr. Wataex moved to amend by adding a proposi- tion, requesting of the President by what authority ho has despatched vessels of the United States to inter- cept or suppress the supposed revolution, Mr. Yoier accepted the amendment, and addressed the Senate in support of his resolution, From infor- mation which he had received, he was inclined to be- Heve that the expedition refereed to was not a mili- tary expedition.such as cont: mplated by our neut: Obligations. He reecgnised m the highest deg Importance of preserving our neutrality ob! and designed to make no ebjection to all pre stitutional measures to that end. What he desired to call the attention of the Senate to, was what seemed to him to be a gross usurpation of power by the Pr dent—an attempt to cover up ® deiinquoncy at homo, by the commission of a at wre abroad An expedition had left our shores, not for the commission of any act upon our own pos- feasions or upon the bigh seas, and when beyond our had taken It the Exeeutiv: movements juriediction altogether, Tmonures to arre was io prevent its and to prevent the Natioual law provided that when- r the fing of revolution is Migerent parties in the J right of any citizen of sell his vessel tor the pur- of the belligerent parties with dupplics ef arms, or apything cleo, This right the Bx- ecutive was charged with having violated, in a ma fiable and inc ared, that while ce to this ox- » republicans, mselves from ty om of commerce. ra civil war | unturled, there field, it laa ne n, Mr formation gretied that Mr. Walkerhad thouglt eoorsary to move the amendment he had off use it was rather offen s it inquired under ‘act bad been done, before am nof that act had been furnished.

What country? What colony? What province ? was important that we should govern ourselves by, some didinct understanding of the neutral duties of thia government, and of all her citizens, as defined by the Iaw of 1815. If we meant to be neutral, we were toconsider our treaty stipulations.

That he admitted to be true, but when such civil commotion was aided on the one side or the other by the fitting out in this country of an ment, that wae against the law of 1818, aud what that law was ex- pready designed to prevent. The Senator had also thrown out a feneral remark, that he was afraid this act ef the President was another of several sots calculated to les o the suspicion that the policy of the administration is rather anti-republican. Mr ‘Wobdeter thought the remark gratuitous and anfound- od; —ho believed the President d to exeeute the Jaw honestly, fairly and firmly. [le knew of nothing in his lite oF Rete to lead to the i that the President was not as good a republican as the rest of them to tions in the had done was correct; Mr Ccar looked upon the movemont as altogether and did not design to enter into its dis- vote, the hoped that the Senate would not have their attention turned from the admission of Callfor- pia by any expedition fitted out in the South against Cuba. Hoe moved that the resolution be laid on the ta- bie, for the purpose of taking up the special order, which was agreed to CALIFORN}4—THE COMPROMINE—ALATERT, ETO. ‘The Senate then reeumed the consideration of the Omnibus bill, and Mr. Soulé addressed the Senate in support of the amendment submitted by Jefferson Davia against the proposed compromise scheme 1 reference tothe former questions pend- the North and Sonth. he subealtted some on the Texas boundary question, and objec. ted to the provision of the bill which cut off two and » half degrees, which, by the compact with Texas, foil iding territory.

It wasa little remarkable, that the objections to Dente tlave bill came from those States who suffered or none from the escape of slaves, while it was entirely eatisfactory to those States which suf- fored most from that cause. Mr. Cray proceeded to defend the bill from the ob- igetone whe Mr. Soule had urged. In the course of remarks, Mr. Sovze, interposing, admitted that slavery was ebolished by the Mexican law, but contended that the constitution ofthe United States set aside the law of ebolition—co instanti.
