Correspondence of the Baltimore Patriot. IN SENATE Feb. 20. After the presentation of petitions by Mr. Dix and others, the Senate took up and for sonifl time considered the bill authorising an increase of Generals in the army. Before any definite action was had on the bill, it was, on motion, laid over and the Senate proceeded to a further consideration ofthe three million bill. Mr Simmons resumed the speech which he commenced some days ago, and spoke at length, in part on the merits of the bill and in part in reply to the speech of Air. Calhoun on present ing his resolutions yesterday. He sent up to the Secretary’s desk and had read some of the doctrines of the late Geo. Mason, of Virginia, one ofthe framers of the Constitution, against the institution of slavery, and then commented on the same. As for the complaint ofthe gentleman from South Caro lina, that the free States were outnumbering the others, and that the equality of former days which was guaranteed to the slave-holding States was not observed, he could not for the life of him see the justice or propriety of it! When the compact was formed between the old thirteen States together with Vermont which fought out the revolution on her own hook, which made fourteen in all, eight were non slave holding and six were slave holding States. The free States then had a majority in the Senate, a majority in the House of Representa tives, and a majority in the Electoral Colleges! This was the Union which South Carolina joined. How stood the case now ? Including Dela ware, which was a slave-holding state, there were fifteen States in the Uni on on that side of j the question, represented in that chamber, and but thirteen non-slave-holding States wiih sen ators in that body. The Senators from the t\\ o new States, lowa and Wisconsin, would make the parties equal ? Was there any thing in this that ought to alarm the gentleman from South Carolina, and cause him to call upon the South to resist tremendous out-numbering of the free over the slave States ? As to the emigration of citizens of slave States to new territories, taking their slaves with them and keeping them there as slaves, nothing of the kind was allowed at the time the Constitu tion was formed, and why the complaint that it should not now he allowed ? Mr. Calhoun replied with spirit and re-as serted his doctrines. Mr, Simmons rejoined with equal spirit, and the scene became hignly interesting. Finally Mr. Soule obtained the floor, when, On motion, the Senate adjourned. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. The House devoted considerable time to the | consideration of private bills, several ol which 1 were passed. Several bills from the Senate were taken up ! and passed —among which was the one lor dis posing of mineral lands on the shores and Islands of Lake Superior The House added an amendment. The House then went into Committee of the Whole (Mr. Cobb in the Chair) and took up the River and Harbor bill, reduced from the bill of last session to about $500,000 in amount. After considering the same for some time, the committee rose and reported the bill, and the House passed it by a vote of 89 to 72. On motion, the House adjourned. FELIX C.
