Sl'ATE OP CONNECTICUT, L'hen personally appoared Henry Kellog, Secretary of the i j- tNo.2.1 reported a bill to amend the act of last session to remodel the Diplomatic and Consular system; which was mado the Bpecial order for Moaday next.

Tua principal changes proposed making the salary of the Minister to France the same as England, raising the Austria full mission to $12 000; the salary of the Minister to the Sandwich Islauds $6,000. The Ministers to France and England are each allowed a clerk at a salary of 1 ,500. The bill to amend the act to promote efficiency in the Navy was called. Several amendments were made, among which was one striking out the section for review grade Admiral. Adjourned.

House. Mr. Cummins, of said hehad heard no terms of condemnation of tue assault, which did injustice to the perpetrator. In contemplating the report of the Committee and the issue involved, all political and personal feelings sank into insignificance, tie asked not sympathy for Mr. Sumner, nor a vindication of Massachusetts, but implored every member who loved peace, quiet and order, to join as one man and roll back the tide of ruffian violence, which was becoming prominent, prevalent and arrogant.

The murderous blow which felled Mr. Sumner feli hot on Massachusetts more than any other State. The slave power having failed to sustain itself in intellectual conflict, resorted to brute force, and with a bludgeon beat freedom over the head. The slave power has trampled the Constitution in the dust. There is very little more for the gentleman from Georgia (Mr.

Cobb) to do than to draw marginal black Hoes around it and write the word "expunge" across its face. In speaking, Mr. Cummins alluded to the mission of South Carolina, when Mr. Aiken interrupted him, pronouncing one of his (Cummins') statements false. This produced some confusion.

Mr. Letcher rose to a question of order. That what may have occurred in South Carolina had nothing to do with the issue pending. Mr. Houston likewise interposed, saying, the remarks of Mr.

Cummins were irrelevant. Mr. Giddings earnestly culled him to order. The Speaker defined the rigiits of the members not to interrupt Mr. Cummins.

Mr. Letcher did not insist on his point of ordr. Mr. Cummins resumed, expressing his amazement at the stern solidity of the Senate concerning their privileges and dignity, at which a deadly blow was aimed. In conclusion, he referred in commendation to the remark of Jas.

Watson Webb, that the outrage merited death on the spot, to be admi by any one present. Could the friends of Mr. Brooks object to his expulsion from the House. Mr. CobO, of Georgia, said he had hoped no disposition would have been evinced to avoid the issue as furnished by that assault.

It was made in m-sequeace of Mr. Sumner's anti-slavery speech or sentiments, and was not founded on truth nor supported by evidence. Let the question be met fairly. The testimony showed the assault was made in consequence of a personal insult offered to a friend and kinsman of Mr. Brooks, and indignantly cast on the State which Mr.

Brooks in part represented, and so stated by Mr. Sumner as the reason given by Mr. Brooks at the time the assault was made. As to drawing black lines around Constitution, as recommended by Mr. Cummins, he who was prepared for the damnable deed might do it.

It was no part of his daty, and the invitation met no response in his heart. Mr. Cummins said he alluded to the slave power. Mr. Cobb c-intinuing, remarked that he raised his voice in behalf of the onstitution, planted himsulf on its provisions, and called on the gentlemen to enforce them.

He then argued that this was not such a question as justified the jurisdiction of the House. The Constitution protected the members only so far as was necessary to legislative purposes; beyond this they were on a level with their humblest constituents, and responsible for libels they might Utter. With regard to Edmundson and Keitt, whom the majority of the committee proposed to censure, they were guilty of no disorderly behavior within the province of the House to punish. Neither was principal nor accessary to the assault, but because they took no steps to prevent the perpetration of the act, or inform Mr. Sumner of hi danger, the committee say their neglect is reprehensible; thus in effect proposing to punish the man who, receiving a confidential communication, fails to become public informor.

Mr. Pennington ramarked if Mr. Orr yesterday in -sinuated, what was not broadly asserted, that the object was to make political capital, it was utterly unfounded. In lact, so far as he was concerned, and therefore he ffave it a flat denial. He argued in support of the principles advanced by the report of the committee, saying he imputed to Mr.

Brooks no murderous purpose, but in the eye of the law the weapon used was a murderous one and wielded in a murderous manner. rids is to certify that William S. Vernon, as asent of the Phoenix Insurance Company, of Harttora, uonn at fforson county, has filed in this office the statements and exhibits required by the provisions of an act, entitled, in act to reirulste Aeencies of Foreism Insurance Comoan-es." approved March 3, 1856; and it having been snpvm tha sa tisfiction of the undersigned, that said company is possessed of an actual capital of at least one iiunareo id fifty thousand dollars, as required by said ajt, the said William S.

Mr. Johnston, from tiio CjaiMit83 on Printing, reported in favor of a mitioa to print twenty thousand extra copies of the Kansas bill as by the Senate, bat adversely to the Hion to print the amendment proposed and the yeas and nays therefor. Mr. Trumbull thought if the Senate were going to send this forth us an electioneering document, action taken on the various amendments ought to be with it, so as to present a fair view of the case. Mr.

Weller wished the report conenred in. The positions held by a majority of the Senate had been very much misrepresented, and they desired that the public mind should be set right. Mr. Wilson was willing to send the country as many copies of the bill as the majority desired. He regarded the bill as intended to arry on the work which border ruffians from Missouri commenced in March, 1855.

The people so understand it and why was this Dill not brought in at the early trt of the before Kansas was conquered? Since that tims Kansas Has been twice or thrice FreeState men murdered, while others were driven out of the Territory, and those on their way thither were disarmed, and sent back to their homes in the face of facts produced by the Kansas investigating committee. The proposition now brought forward takes positions precisely contrary to those a sinned six months ago holdine out the appear anoe of fairness and justice, but "keeping the word of promise to the ear and breaking it to the hope." Mr. Wade took ground similar to that of Wilson and was willing toscatter thebill broadcast over the country, for it showed that the doctrine of popular sovereignty was renounced and entirely given np by the Democratic party. The bill also virtually admitted that the Territorial legislation was a fraud, for it legislated right over their heads, and anm led many of its acts. Mr.

Douglas vindicated the Senate bill, and said that the Republicans did not want peace until after the election, for it was all gammon for political effect. Their capital for the coming Presidential election was blood, and an angel from heaven could not frame a bill to settle the Kansas difficulties with which the -lack Republicans would be satisfied previous the Presidential election. Applause in the gallery. The Chair called the House to order. Thebill presented was fair, just, and equitable.

They oould not denv it; yet they were not satisfied with it. He thought it a little remarkable that the Republicans, after contending that nine-tenths of the bona fide inhabitants were free State men up to the nour wnen xoomDS presenieu nis proposition, should suddenly turn right about and cry that all free btate men had been driven out of the Territory. Hale opposed the bill, drawing a vivi'i picture of burning dwellings, mourning widows and weeping orphans in Kansas, attributing all devastation and suffering there to the removal of the old landmark by the of the Missouri restrictions. Fessenden argued that the design of the repeal of the Missouri Compromise was to make Kansas a slave State. Toombs denied that the measure introduced by him had any other object than appeared on its face.

It was to protect tbe inhabitants of Kansas and restore peace. There was no design to make it a slave State unless the inhabitants should so desire. Mr. Crittenden vindicated his course on the Kansas bill. Mr.

Wilson denied he had ever misrepresented the bill. The adoption of that bill would close the question and make Kansas a slave-holding State. He had never uttered a sentiment calculated to excite malice in Kansas. Free State men have nothing to gain by violence. They only desire peace, order, security, and protection in their rights.

It is not feme that the Emigrant Aid Society caused the trouble. Thai was a peaceful, lawful organization, and had spent JfUU.UUU in erecting noteis ana sawmills in Kansas. He had heard so much about chivalry, that with him it was another name for scoun-drelism. During the debate, Mr. Bigler, in reply to allusions on Mr.

Buchanan's political orthodoxy, denied that he had 6aid if he had a drop of Democratic blood in his veins be would let it out. If Buchanan had tried the experiment he would have bled to death, for he was Democrat all over. Mr. Bigler insisted that Mr. Wilson misrepresented the Kansas bill, which warranted no conclusion that it entailed making Kansas a slaveholding State.

After further debate, the motion to print was adopted, and the Senate adjourned at 9 o'clock. House. Campbell called up the report of the Select Committee, relative to Brooks' assault on Sumner, which concludes with resolutions to expel Brooks, and expressing disapprobation at the conduct of Edmundson and Keitt. Cobb, of moved a substitute, declaring the House had no jurisdiction over the subject, and therefore, deemed it improper to express any opinion thereon. Campbell, of Ohio, said the resolutions were predicated on complaint to the House, by the Senate, charging hat the privileges of" the Senate had been violated by a member of this body in his assault on the person of a Senator from Massachusetts.

The testimony on the subject is full. The facts, as stated in the report of the majority of the committee, are not controverted by the minority; that violence was committed is established beyond a doubt. He claimed that the House has full power r.o protect its purity and dignity as recommended by the majority of the committee. Mr. Clingman said this matter had produced great excitement in the country.

He had not been here many years, and yet had seen much stronger cases than this of fights when the House was in session. He recapitulated those personal rencontres, remark ing that tne itoase uia not tase action onanyot them. His object was to show the occurrence now under consideration was sought to be magni fied with a view to mate politioal capital for a cer tain party. Thinking tneir sands ol lite are running low, they want to get up a great excitement, i'here was nothinir to justify it. He thought the argument of tho minority of the committee took tne proper grouun, anu conteuaeu no ureacii oi privilege had been committed by Brooks.

Were he to speak of Sumnsr's speech as its character deserved, he would have to adopt a collection of coarse and offensive expressions. Men of courage are rarely abusive, Duttuose wno taisiiy are generally cowards. He believed Sumner was closely identified with the Garrison and Phillips school, and was for disunion. If that Senator wanted to degrade the country and Senate, he might well indulge in such things. Mr.

Clingman, in conclusion, said there was nothinir in the assault to iustifv the indignation of the country; it was not a matter for the House to in- tertere witn, ana ougnt to oe leu to tne juuiciui tribunals. Mr. Bingham submitted to tho House that, while Mr. Clineman lectured members as to propriety ol conduct, he indulged in as gross and outrageous personal abuse as could' fall from the lips of any man. Who constituted Mr.

Clingman censor of the dis tinguished gentleman from Massachusetts Freedom of speech and security of person underlies every representative system of government, and on the maintenance of this great principle depends the life of a State. Wjthout its observonce there could be no free government and no free people. This case involved more than an assault and battery. It involved a violation of representative privilege and contempt and crime against tho great principles of iree speccu. civu liiuuuui uih ut uia house.

Justice Storey, when speaking of privileges of the two houses, says these rights are the rights and privileges of their constituents, yet gentlemen here represent thi3asan ordinary case of assault ana battery. Mr. Brooks violated the spirit of that Constitu tion he had sworn to support; that Constitution which protects a Senator in the freedom of speech and debate the Senator being beaten and left drip ping in blood, for having denounced tyranny and slavery, which makes merchandise of mortality, he was felled and made to bleed. A bludgeon was used, the weapon of barbarous ages; the instrument was in perfect keeping with the act. Mr.

Brooks expressed his gratification that Bingham had disclaimed personal unkindness, and asked him whether he understood him as saying that he (Brooks) was guilty of moral turpitude or perjury. Bingham That consideration never entered into my mini. Brooks replied that it was altogether satisfactory Orr said Bingham, after indulging in a beautiful paroxysm, asserted that. Sumner was stricken down in consequence of pleading, set np in behalf of the iniured neoDle of Kansas. It was attempted to pro duce such an impression in the public mind, but it was not true in point of fact.

Sumner was punished for libel on South Carolina, nnd slander on Butler, the ancient relative of Brooks, who so informed Sumner. Franklin was right, when he said freedom of speech was' freedom of cudgel. This was no more against a Senator than against a newspaper editor, whose foul slanders against private individuals are after punished by blows, there being no remedy at law. It was not true that Sumner was struck down with a bludgeon. The testimony showed it was an ordinary walking cane, ana wit ness testifying that it was one inch thick above: and five-eighths of an iDCh below.

Fair play is a jewel. The design of the misrepre sentation is to operate on the Presidential election. Whoever heard before of a persona difficulty being magnified to such an extent as this has been. One alluded to a gentleman voting to-day to print a hundred tbonsand copies of the report on tho Sumner assault as an electioneering document Mr. Hickman, rising amid a confusion I did not vote it as an electioneering doonment, for i owe no allegiance to the Republican party and am opposed to it.

-i Mr. Orr If the gentleman is not; his public position has been much misunderstood throughout the country. It is part of a system to inflame the public mind, and if the gentleman from Pennsylvania" uiuuu. vuie ror tne proposition, no caat avote tne effect of which was to injure the party to which the gentleman professes to belong. Mr.

Hickman desired to reply, but objection from various quarters was made. Mr. Orr quoted the testimony of Dr. Boyle to show the physical condition of Mr. Sumner had been misrepresented for political effeot, and concluded py arguing the question of privileges; Adjourned Thursday's Proceedings: Washinston, July 10, p.

The River yesterday morning, was slowly fall ing, with three feet eight inches water in the canal-tiut in the evening it was at a stand, and tho water exceedingly muddy.

Closing: the Canal Improvements.

Capt. Lockhart, the efficient superintendent of the canal, ba3 advertised for sealed proposals for the contemplated work of improvement, widening it, In the meantime, he has a large force at work making a new basin, at the first turn from the head of th canal. The basin is to be 60 feet wide, and 240 feet in length, making a very convenient turnout for boats. It is contemplated to close the canal sometime this summer, probably about the last of the present month. Captain Lockhart will give due notioe, through the papers, and by telegraph, ten days before the time, which will give all boatmen a chance to get either above or below the falls with their boats, as they may desire.

Boats at Pittsburg. We learn that the boats or rather boatmen, at Pittsburg, have fallen out among themselves in regard to prices of freights and to use a common phrase, are "cutting their own throats." We learn from a reliable source that the "war has actually begun" at Pittsburg. On Tuesday a couple of low water paokets, without awaiting their turn.commenced taking in freight' regardless of the established rules of the Pittsburg Union Marine Association, and the result was the loading of no less than seven steamers for Cincin nati, the prices having been reduced to 150 per 100 on dry goods.

He condemned the inflamatory appeals resorted to in this case. Adjourned. Kansas Convention. Buvfai.0, July 10. The Kansas Convention met yesterday, ex-Governor Reeder presiding.

The ob ject of the meeeing being to secure unity and effi ciency ot action uiroughout the country in nenau ot freedom and ilansas. A committee on resolutions was appointed. Most of the session was con sumed in addresses on the wrongs of Kansas. A committee ot uwere appomtea to report a plan aid Kansas. A letter was read from Gen.

Lane, recommending routes by which to march troops through iowa into ilansas. ueierreu to a ommittee. Second Day. This morning, resolutions were adopted to ap point a National Kansas Committee, calling on the friends of justice and humanity throughout the coHntry to organize associations lor moumiy contributions of money for the relief of Kansas, which should not fall short of $100,000 each month Re commending emigrants to take the route through Iowa. Urging Congress to establish dnily mail routes from Topeka to Iowa City and Burlington.

Gerritt Smith introduced a resolution to send armed men to Kansas, to afford that protection to emi- rants which tlie Government refused. Accusing ths Administration with being instigators and upholders ot the outrages in that Territory. Other resolutions less ultra, offered by' Reeder and others were adopted. Reeder spoke warmly in favor of the admission of Kansas under the Topeka Constitution, and de nounced the benate bill. Gov.

Reeder made a long speech on Kansas, and her right to be admitted into Union under the Topeka Constitution, at the close of hich he spoke of Gerret Smith's resolutions as too ultra. Mr. Smith defended them as only recommending to send an armed force into Kansas, to resist the armed force already there. He believed the time tor resistance had already arrived. Me had already given all the money he conld spare for hooka, provisions and agricultural implements for Kansas, and lie telt he was now called upon to contribute means to arm men, to send them ont to fight.

Mr. bmith continued at some length the same strain, and was replied to by Gov. Reeder, who was in lavor ot waiting awhile longer. jNot because Kansas had not received wrongs enough, but because ue thought it better to wait until an effective blow coulu be struck. If it had fallen to him to use the power of the Government, he would not have waited, but the oppressors of Kansas would have, long ere this, been converted into heaps of dead men on the fields of Missouri, tie was therelore willing to wait until they had the power; he would have thus asked, but did not wish to give the South notice of their intention by marching armed men into the Territory; he would like ihe enemy to have first notice blow iu itsdf; the free State party take ground that they will exhaugst all peaceful remedies that being done, they will resist to death, and pile the soil with the dead bodies of their oppressors.

Gerrett Smith suggested that if this ohain of reasoning be correct, the convention should sit wiih closed doors, as the Scuth could not but know that something was to be done when resolutions were passed for raising $100,000 per month. Adjourned till afternoon. From Wnjliington. Washington, July 10, P. M.

The Senate made sundry amendments to the Indian Appropriation out. ine house took up the bills ana resolution, asking that a select committee be appointed, to inquire into the subject of the alleged frauds in contracting for the public buildinirs. Mr. Elliott remarked that the resolution charged the officers of the Treasury with improper conduct. He was authorized to say that Secretary Guthrie will not shrink from an investigation, which doubt less would turn out slander and political falsehood.

Mr. Ball replied there was no insinuation in the resolution agfinst Mr. Gu-hrie. The preamble thereto embodies an. affidavit reflecting on certain officers, and thisis the basis of the proposed inquiry.

After further deiate the resolution passed. Messrs. Ball, Kennett, Burnet, King, and Cadwallader were appointed the committee. The consideration of the report of the Committee, relative to urooas' assault on Sumner, was re sumed. Trial of Herbert Appointments.
