Wasjusqtos, Jane 25.
Tin credentials of'Mr. Bartnrell.of &C.,were
yesterday presented, and be was qualified andtook
Vis seal. Mr. Clay, though be wi. the night be
fore, quite indisposed, was at his post. The attend
ance of Senators was neusfly full nod the gelfe/^
ies were crowded, in eooreqoence of the expecta
tion that Mr. Soule would speak. Mr. Soule was
listened to with deep attention, and" with eri-
dent satisfaction by some. He was expected to
bring forward some new eiewe, and be did vt, and
especially one that to Mr. Benton was eery ttowel-
cotne Mr. Soule offered a substitute for that part
oftbeadjartmeat bill which provides forth* ad
mission of California. He proposes, in aubatanee,
that California be admitted, upon the proclamation
of the President. aa soon as sbe shall by. an ordi
nance, adopt, maker Soolhern boundary, the Mis-
aoeri line ot 86“ 30' north UUtad*. and also secure,'
to the United 8tates, the sole right to the primary
disposal of the soil. The revenue, collected by the
(Jnked flutes in California, be restores to ber and
he provides for the payment of ber Senator* and
Representatives elect. The part of California,
sooth ol.tbe line 36°1RH, J»e propones to form into
^-»4tftitpry« to be called SoMkrCaliforiua, with the
same provisions for its government aa that of Utah,
and with the farther provisions that, when it forms
u State Coastitstfon, it may come into the Union as
a free ee slave 8ute, as the people of the territory
may choose. This is substantially hi# proposition
The general remarks with which Mr. Soule open-
ed Ills speech, were very eloquent aad^AjjCjust.
The argument, a# far as he proceeded in it, yester
day, vre. directed to one object—to show that the
whole or nearly the Whole public domain of Cali
fornia—with gold bearing lands ofa value equal to
tbeaameaC of the aggregate debts of every nation
in the world—would pass to California, as soon as
—'eEt is admitted as a State, by the passage of the
bill before the Senate.
He argued that California bad not, by ber Con-;
stitution, protected the United States in the right
to the soil, and that, in a certain ordinance sent here
subsequently to the presentation o! the Constitu
tion, and lb* printed copies of which essentially va
ried from the original words, which bad been al
tered by some unknown band, it was promised
that, after reserving eleven hundred thousand acres
for the purposes pf schools, tbs vacant sod unoccu
pied lands be relinquished to the United States.
There would not be much land left vacant and no-
occupied, Mr. S. said, in a country where there were
now twenty thousand agricsltirists and a hundred
and fifty thousand gold diggers. He wentintova*
rious arguments and statements to show that Cali
fornia waa not a party to the hill, and would not be
bound by its provisions, and that it was necessary,
in order to reserve the rights of the United States,
that California should girt her assent to the condi
tions of her admission before she was actually
roads a sovereign State.
Mr. Souls wilt resume his argument Unlay and
he will, I presume, satisfy many that there are'
some vast land projects at the bottom of the scheme
for hurrying California into the Union,la a State
Mr. Benton was much annoyed by these views,
and will, I presume, reply. Dr. Uwio was present,
and will famish materials fora reply to Mr. Soule.
Mr. Houle will, to-day. offer an argomsnt in favor
of dividing California by lh« Missouri compro
mise line. If Mr. Soule’s amendments be adopted
they will be assented to by California and it will de-
ilay her admission only three months.
| Alter the disposition of Mr. Soule’s amendment
another amendment wilt be offered tor the purpose
of dfwimlbn ‘*P e trough

The discussion of the
nate, will still ocqupy some time. Jl will
Senate, in caa* it obtain the vote of either of the
following Senators—to wit: Mr. Hooter* Mr.
Morton, or Mr. Berrien.
The House is still engaged upon ibt general
bounty land bill. A caucus was held, by tbe
""friends of the measure, oo Saturday night, and
scheme agreed upon which embraces tl»e officci
and soldiers of the Indian wars in the North-Wjjst
and in Florida, die., the Isle war with Great Bri
tain, and the staffofficers who-aerved in Mexico.
It does hot embrace the field officers who served in
Mexico, for there are nine oi them in Congress, and it
would look as it they were taking care ol them
selves. Tbe plan embraces the three, six
twelve month* men of the war of 1813. The
calls for an appropriation of ahouttwo millionsol
acres of pablw lands.
VVxshi.vgtox, June 87.
The reply nfade, yesterday, by .Mr. Douglas to
Mr. Soule, on the subject o! the pnbli
entirely satisfactory. Air. Douglas showed that
the bill, as tistands,'-protects the United Slates. A
further reply will be made to-day', and it is hoped
that the queries will be taken on the amendment.
The Senate bavtLdetermined to mee| coply and set
late, in order to press the bill to a final vote.
Though the bill has lost come friend* lately, yet it*
frieuds w*r* yesterday very confident of carrying it
