The House passed the bill annulling the territori al legislation of New Mexico on the subjects of Slave ry and Peonage. The Protective Tariff and. loan bills also passed the House. AN ABORTIVE SCHEME. Some days ago an effort was made in Washington City, and telegraphic dispatches on the subject were sent throughout the South, lor the purpose of paralys ing the efforts of National Dcmocaats to have a repre sentation at the Baltimore convention on the I8th of June. The affair got into the hands of bunglers, and they only succeeded in making themselves ridiculous, without arresting the efforts of the people of the non represented States to provide for the calling of State conventions. A special dispatch to the Charleston Mercury says : " So far from the submission address to the south delegates to the Charleston couventioa, being ed by every Democratic member of Congress, not a single member of the South Carolina or the Alabama delegations will sign it." Another dispatch says .- " The Congressional address to seceding delegates from the Charleston convention, to induce a return at t Baltimore, and union of action among the southern delegates, still hangs Are.
