In the Senate this afternoon, a motion to take 'up, the resoluiious apjKjTntlng.CQtb-roTjsiouers apjKjTntlng.CQtb-roTjsiouers to Virginia, and consider them lmmcdioteIytAvas voted down. by J7 to 0. A motion to consider tliem to-morrow was also voted down,. The subject was postponed tilt Monday. Senate, Feb. 1st, Tho President's message was taken up. Mri Latham mudo a onion speech. The people of California breathe but one sentiment of loyulty and devotion to the Union, and "will ratify any settlement which will satisfy, 'the South, and if such satisfaction is refused, a large majority of that people will say, let thcin'go in eacc. In the language of the senator from New Yorkf the people of California speak for onion, vote for union, give their money for union: and provided he can show them how, by outfighting can maintain the liberty lib-erty and equality 'of their southern brethren breth-ren n the Union, will fight for hnlou. But if he cannot perform that difficult task, the people of that coast would never Imbrue Im-brue their bands In the blood of their southern brethren. Ho was willing to vote' for tbe proposition of tho senators froa Kentucky aHd Illinois, but thought the wisest plsu was that of his friend from Minnesota. -The cipasideratien of the message was postponed till Monday. The diplomatic appointment bill somewhat some-what amended, passed. The executive and Judicial appropriation appropria-tion bill amended, passed. After an executive ex-ecutive session, the Senate adjourned. Hoist, 1st Mr. Conway rising to a question of privilege, read the resolution Introduced by Mr, Hindmnn yesterday, instructing the committee on judiciary lo Inquire whether-be bas been constitution' ally and legally elected representative from : tbe state of Kansas, As this was the first time bis right to a seat bad ever been questioned? and as be yesterday took the ootb front the Speaker, without any objection, ob-jection, he thought Mr. Hindman should inform tho House the reason which nromrit- ed him to tako so extraordinary a position, posi-tion, 1 Mr, Hindman said it afforded him much pleasure to do to. It was without any lutentioii to assail particularly the gentleman, gentle-man, npd grew out of no hostility to him or his state. It occurred to him that the question ahonld be settled as to what time a state becomes entitled to a representative representa-tive In Congress. Having been informed, and believing the election under whlcb tlie gentleman claims bis scat, took placo foug anterior to tho admission of Knusas into the Union, It seemed to him evident thitt the right of representation docs not rest under that election. It seemed to him quite cvidem) that Kansas becomesputltled to a member of tbe House at, tlie-. time tbe tIeeeX.a J.'J'Xfc he waM rIoTB:' the I0f4 Territory m., OOOprevlou, to .U irtTjtf punxise'of redeeming treauirZ:,rtt balance of the stalTOt Tl discussing the crisl, ftfSi which; Mr. Kellwg.o InlTi, as a sulistiiuto ft ffi f- mitleoof 03,joint resol,6' amcidrntnu of tb, CoWtutUr!K manner Indicated by that tn.. ? project ocirthajoAbT&t compromised Mr tClcrnCS 1 ' td see such preposition &tit"m t bfattbuthIMf;5 After on)c fuulitr delwie .b. adjourned- until cg,Q. scsste0'wltla.t 20th, The Courier Mtrcant& rmtii, ''cr from Naples, djhe;lK lug. tbak levcralthousand rpand of Gen.
