The cue an iu sole object the freedom of the territories from slavery, and entered into a organization during the Presidential conttst, merely because the Whig candidate was net, in iu judgment, to be trueled on that question. The olher faction, represented by men as Chase, Towushend and Hauiliu, are intriguing for partyiuweudeucy, merely for the fur- theraiico of Iheji'own schemes of personal graiidizemeuyrrhe faction includes the corrupt leaders of the old Liberty party, who care not a pin for the freedom of the slave, together with a handful of disappointed outcasts fron: ths Whig party, while the former branch, and much the most numerous one, is composed of Whigs, wbo differ from our own friends only in their distrust of General Taylor.

They arepledgedto full back into our ranks the day that slavery- restriction is secured by General Taylor'eadmiu- istrallon; but "the intriguing demagogues, who now aim to use the Free-Soil party for their own selfish ends, are already straining every nerve to guide their associates into a position entirely different from that of the primary organization, and from which a return, under any circumstances, of the party to 'its original elements, would be impossible.

Gra. Union's announcement of Gen. Cass' nomination for tho Senate has misled the press. He mat nominated "unanimously" by a small portion of the party in caucus, but the 22 who staid away, are bitlerly opposed lo him.

So it appears that the lower branch of the Michigan Legislature went into an election on the 10th, aud Cass had 34 votes, Ransom (L. 11, and the Whig aud Free Soil candidate 17. The Senate, next day, postponed the election indefinitely. This was considered by the Ransom men a great victory. True, it was reported at Washington on the 22d, that Cass had been elected, we place no great degree of confidence in the rumor, and, indeed, on this head, we may well be permitted to doubt if the Presidential defeat be not followed by a Senatorial one.

A despatch from Detroit, dated the 13th, lo the Toledo Blade, says: "Cass will not be elected. We shall get a better man." Is it possible that the Michigandera will unite with the Buckeye Locofocos in "kicking the dead lion?" We shall see. P. S. He VMS elected on the 22d.

An wwu as the Message was read, howevei, Mr. ced the report from the House committee on counting the votes for Governor, which wan the game as that presented to the Senate ou Friday last. A inembor of the locofoco branch moved the report be laid upon the however voted for it The report was theu mousty accepted, and the chair announced the House committee. The House soon after adjourned, no business of general interest occurring, that above iioud.

The Joint Committee then repaired to the "Neil House" aud 3i P. waa the time designated by the Governor elect for taking the oath of office aud communicating with the Legislature. 3 P.

The members are amusing with "calls of the House," question ou sending and dispensing with further proceedings under the call, itmay be supposed to consume time, aud show the socereiynt bow ou- siness is transacted.

Tha usual message having been sent to the Senate of the readiness of the House to receive the honorable members, they soon made their aopearattce under the escort of their Sergeaul- at-Arms. The Speaker of the Senate was hardly sealed, before he announced the "Committee o. 1 Arrangements." The Chairman of the Committee announced the "Governor elect" Mr ForJ was accompanied by Gov. Bebb, and Ex-Oovernor Trimble, and took his seat with tho JoriL-er between the Speakers. Mr.

xxxii. CoLDJmus, Tuesday, Jau. 23, There is a more favorable prospect in the way of legislative business--both Houses have been maturing private bilJs, and those of a public nature have received some consideration. In the Senate joint resolutions relative to postage tax ou newspapers was under discussion, an amendment being inserted by Committee extending the limits from thirty to fifty miles, Mr. Goddard favored the amendment if the "ranking privilege was retained, but as he hoped "or its repeal, he would move its re-commitment with instructions to report in favor of the latter measure.

Mr. Vinal, who bad introduced the bill, tho't was little probability of the passage of a repeal, and this measure was loudly called for by the West, as a protection against the trash that uundated us from the East. The resolution was then adopted by common consent. Plank-road bills are quite numerous this sess- on. They appear lo be admirably adapted to a new country.

Our friends in the North and North-west, are earnest in the movement. The Perrysburgh and Findlay plank road bill was passed, the Senate overruling the riders offered on its final passage, to amend or repeal at the option of the Legislature, or reslrictiag the company from taking timber further than one iiundred feet on ecch side of ihe road. The Painesville Warren plank-road bill was also considered, the Senate refusing to en- grafi an amendment of Mr. Archbold, that no lax-payer who voted against any lux being imposed, should be assessed. In the House the biil for the incorporation of the Ashtubulu Central plank-road was passed.

The petitions also forwarded, show a slrong disposition to exluiid them in various directions. They are alluded to for the purpose more particularly of enlisting that inlerrbt in their behalf which they honorably deserve. jfr. Peuuington introduced a resolution, which was adopted, calling upon a Board of public works, to report at next session of General Assembly as lo the value of improvements belonging lo the State, the amount they might be disposed for, or whether any might be ubuii- doued. special appropriation bill for members was taken up, and the substilule of the minority committee adopled, which is Ihe same as that now before the Seaule--Iho regular appropriation bill.

Some discussion was had upon tho item for the State House, $75,000, but tho bill was passed over with the understanding it should be the especial order of the day for lo-morrow. Tho postage bill, referred to above, was then considered, and amended to dispense with the pre-portlage on newspapers, nd fl iu that form will doubtless During Ihe afternoon tho Senate was occupied in Committee of the Whole, plunk road bills prominent item. The House considered the "Homestead Exemption" Bill in committee of thu whole, which is favorably received. THe press in New York sustain- th-e proposition with earnest 26ul, aud there is no doubt of the passage of such a bill by the Legislatura of that State. The limit of tho value is $10UO as proposed In New York --from $500 lo 1,000 here.

There was some discussion us to the relrospeclivu effect it should have. The Senate committee are warmly devoted to the bill iutrodueed by it--Mr. the chairman, has long been in favor of the measure, uud has the bump of go-ahead-iliveiies slrongly developed. There have been various rumors afloat to-day of the coalition of Townshend and Morse i the Locos to introduce Pugh and Pierce, and though reaching the most respectable sources, il is impossible to believe it. This Towushend is British lucofoco abolitionist, which is not a very common production, and of course we may expect some extraordinary movement.

Mr. Morse is the "Right Bower" of Giddings of the Reserve, which, truth to say, is not the best of z-xOiiiiiiciidalions--so we may be prepared for strange developments.
