SENATE.-WAsHINaTos FEB. IT, 1s45.

 The Senate Chamber this morning filled with expecia,,on that Mir Choate of Mass would speak 1; but Mr. C. yielded the floor to Mir Woodbury, in order to give an interchange to the discussion and speeches.

 Mir. Dix presented memorial from New York against the annexation of Texas for the abolition of Slavery.

 Mr. Dickinson presented memorial from New York for the annexation of Canada and Texas tho same time.

 On motion of Mir. Lewis, of Ala. the privilege of a seat in the Senate Chamber was granted to Ex- President Lamar of Texas. .t

 Mir. Woodbury renewed the debate upon the Tex as question al one o'clock. He against the motion of the Committee on Foreign Relations for the indefinite postponemeDt of the bill from the House, and in favor of the J0nt Resolutions. MT. w. commenced his speech in a high tone of voice and in a manner which showed great deal of per- sonal and political feeling.

 Mir. W. repeled lhe charge of the measure before the Senate heinz act of high handed majority. The friends of annexation, he claimed, were as good friends of the Constitution as those who op- posed it.-He complained bitterly of the fierce op- position which had been brought to bear against tile proposed nnexaon hefore Ihe people, and regarded rhe people as in favor of il, and labored 10 show that they had so decided at the recent election. He was willing to concede that the opposite party were honest upon this question:; but while he grant ed tnls 10 others, he cai1ieu as muc" TUT hi"ioe" and friends.

 Annexation, in MT. w E view, was no revOu- tionary measure but the admission of kindred peo ple into our own circle. It WAS not like annexing Paraeon,a or the Celestial Empire 10 annex Texas, bpcanse Texas was, it were. part of ourselves, with similar laws. institutions, form of govern ment, Sc. :.

 Mr. w. also rrofessed himself to he little dis satisfied wit, the Resolutions of the House, but he did not like to endanger their passage by amending them.

 The Constitutional question he rested soley upon the ground of the power admit new States into the Union. He considered it sufficient. A distinction was drnwn between acquiring territory, as in IeoS aod lSl9, and annexing State from territory az proposed m the Resolution befre the Senate. Mir Jefferson. he thought with Mr Buchanan, must have changed his mind upon the subject He deaied, too. that there was any danger from annexation, to the Uujon.
