Wasninoton, March 16, 1862. ‘The whig friemds of General Scott have become alarmed at the strengta of Mr. Villmore’s administration at the South, and begin to fear that cither Fillmore or Webster may upset Scott in the Philadelphia Convention. To prevent this result, the Scott whigy have had several private meetings, and have agreed to prepare a letter, to be signed by the General, which may be cnleutated to re- move the objections of the South, without compromising his expected support from the abolition whigs of the North. The letter will be worded 40 as to contain @ move- ablo platform, !ooking two or three ways ab once, It will dodgo the Fugitive Slave law, and yet satisfy the South. William H. Seward will agree to this plan of operations, Webster and Fillmore are apparently very. friondly, and take a cup of toa and a chat together frequently. The democratic leaders are in great confusion with their numorous candidates. The Douglas party are getting perfectly wild, and very thirsty, They ave drinking dry all tho grog abops around the Capitol.

Agreed to, THE IOWA RAILROAD BILL. Mr. Brapnvny, (dem.) of Me., moved to portpone the Towa Railroad bill, and to take up the joint resolution roviding for the purchase of the ninth ‘volume of the Lows of the United States, which motion was negatived. Mr. Sumner, (free soil) of Mass., addressed the Senate in defence of his course on the bill; and reqd extracts from the journal. showing that Massachusetts delegations bad always voted for such bills. Mr. Uxprnwoon, (whig) of Ky.. peo ed an amond- ment granting to those States in which thore are ne pub’ lic lands, an aggregate number of acros.of the seventeen millions to be nppropriated among them according to their federal population, the products of such lands to be applieg to purposes of internal improvements and educa- tion. Mr. Bers. (whig) of ‘Tenn, moved to amend the amendment by requiring theso lands to be selected from the territories, and not from the land im any State, Agreed to. Mr, Rurr, (dem.) of 8. C., said he could not vote for the amendment. It appropriated land, which was quasi money, for purposes of internal improvement. He could not vote for the bill, because the State could select within the fifteen miles oa either «Ide of the rond iand not In al- ternate sections. Mr. Doveras, (dem.) of DL, explained that the bill could not be so interpreted. ‘The Land Office had, some time since, with regard to the other bill, decided diffi- ty. bg Rhott, Douglas, and Underwood continued the debate; and Mr. D. said, in the course of his remarks, that Mr. Calhoun advocated the Iinois bill, of which thie bill was a copy. Ma. Joxns, (whiz) of Tenn., was in favor of the amend- ment, and can he had paired off with Mr. Sebastian.

Mr, yas (dem.) of Mo., saked what the Senators from Iowa thought of this proposed amendment. Mr. Joxses,(dem.) of Lows, hoped the amendment would not be adopted. Mr. Case, (dem.) of Michigan, said the bill had been examined by the committee, and the roads proposed had been considered.

Mr, Hare said he hoped that the amendment would be modified so as to give Iowa the other road. inesmuch a4 it would only require 300,000 additional acres to be given away. He thought it likely that more than that would be given away hereafter, and to do it now would bea areat saving f time and money, ‘This bill had occupied six weeks, and unless the additional land was given now, more time would be consumed hereafter.

The Hoaao went into Committce of ‘the Whole om the State of the Unio, and took up the bill for supplying de. ficienciea in the appropriations for the year ending June, 1853. Mr. Hitiyrr, (dem.) of Ga., desired to call the atten- tion of the committee toa remark made by the gentleman frorm Virginia (Mr. McMullen), ® few. weeks ngo, in reply to the gontleman from Florida (ft, Cabell), when he too cesasion to say of the Union pacty. of Georgin, that it wa compased of the factions of all pgrties; and he saw in on paper an application to that honorable and patriotic part of the term “piehald.”” Mr. McMvties, (dem.) of Va., said he did use the r: mark attributed to him by the gentleman, but he did under the excitement of the moment. He was free to ad mit that ho intended nothing disrespeetful to that party for perhaps the gentleman is aware of the fact that h (Mr, McMullen) acted and co-operated with that part; during the last Congress “ Mr. Rrooxs, (whig) of N.

The rule was read, tothe effeet that gentlemen must strictly confine themselves to the question under dubate, and avoid personalities, Mr. Brooxs made this point of order, that the gentle- men are diccussing party matters, and not the deficiency ‘The Chairman (Mr. Mrapr) decided that a literal con- struction of the rule precludes the gentiemen. from Georgia; but, hy the uniform practice of the House, the Chair coulsl not undertake to rule the gentlemen out of order, Mr. Brooxs seid he wos aware the Chair had declded according to usage; but, during the last session, on four or five ocoasions, when public businese was pressing, the House confined members literally to the rules, beeause it was found impossible to transact the public business without this course. He appealed from the decision of the Chair. tied taken, the chair was sustainced— The question Ayer, 79; Noes, ir. Hinnver resumed, He had no objection to excuse the gentleman from Virginia ; but the came principles and opinions bad been avowed hy other gentlemen. Ilo was proud to say, that, instead of the Union party of Georgia being composed of factions of all parties, there ‘was not in it one abolitionist, or free soiler, or one tariff man for protection ; and, 20 for aa he knew, one bank or internal improvement man. But all within this mighty party ore for a strict construction of tho constitution, ‘and the rights of the States. They are # unit. He then defended the union party of Georgia and tracedthe history of its organization, which he insisted was founded on necessity, against those who favored secession. He saw no objection to their fending “delegates to the Baltimore conven- tion, as ambassadors to see that tho convention plant themselves on the basis of the Union party. In the course of his remarks, ho said the Union party cannot act with the whige. There was the whig gentleman from Massachusetts, who voted in the Legi+luture of that State for a law that a Whiteman may marry a negrogirl. What can be the matter with the white girls of Massachusetts ? (Laughter.) ‘This is no Inughing matter, gentlemen, Renewed laughter.) Here isa sovereign State of this nion gravely determined, by legislative enactments, that the negro girla of Massachusetts shail be brought into competition with white girls. There must be some- thing dreadful with the white girls when sucha teste as this must be established by tow. (Laughter. ) Mr. Duncan, (whig) of Mase.. rose, merely wishing to ray that white gontiemen have nover availed themselves of the privilege. Mr. Hittyi:n.—That confession is worthy ofnctice. Why pass a law, the privileges of which no white man wishes to enjoy? Why give him the right, when he does not wish to marry a negro girl? (Laughter.) It is no laughing matter. (Renewed laughter.) When you say a thing 0° that kind there must be something very important under- neath, (Laughter.) ‘There is something there which has not come to light. (Exoeasive merriment.) I have not siluded to this to make you laugh. (Renewed laughter. ) 1 express my opinion when I say that there is not » man on this floor, not even thove who advocated the passage of the law in the Legislature of Massachusetts, who would not prefer the bright eye, blooming cheek, and warm heart, of the Anglo-Sexon girl. to the greasy and aromatic negro wench. (Laughter.) But this way intendod as an insult to the South. Mr. Gropinas, (free soll) of Ohio, said the people of the North hold themselves «4 supremely and uncontrovertibly exempt from the crimes and expenses of slavery. If it has blessings, they belong to the South—if curses, the same ownership. The North says, xlaud back; you shall not involve us with the guilt and expense of slavery. He was sorry to hear the gentleman from Geor- gis, (Mr. Hillyer.) boast of the goed prices of negro ficsh, and surprised that he should endeavor to throw ridicule on the laws of the old Bay State In this city there aro men who are breeding mon and women for market, and by tho profit of the trade sustain themeclves in wealth—and this, too, under the United States law. By sustaining the compromise measures, this kind of breeding is continued. He waderstood that the compromise maintains the slave trade, and the crime which attends it. He wished to know of any Northern man whether he will sustain a law which supports yonder barracoons? Is there s whig of the North who will say he isin favor of maintaining tho slave trade in this dia- trict? No; he would assure gentlemen of the South that uo Northern man would dare so avow himself, One of the objects of the compromise was to maintain the traffic in slaves, and he declared that he would continuo to make unceasing war against tho slave trade in the territories and constwise, (ius speech ccoupled an hour.) Mr. Jacxsow, (em.) of Ga., addressed the committee to defend his own course and that of che Southern rights party, one of whore representatives he ho has the honor tobe.
