He then i.

examined the reasona advanced for the slml anion of Kaasaa under It, Ha- thought the argument that it would give peaee to the oountry was unstatesmanllke. Benaiora should do justly and fear not. He believed that the bill would not produce peace( but the sword. Me would neither threaten himself, nor be swayed by threats from other, and yet these sort of argument had been flerd by statesmen to statesmen In the Asseitean Senate. Recurriag to the Leeomptoa Coa-etifatkm, he utterly denied the right of Congress to alter or amaad it; if any alteration Is made- it toast be tent back, to the neonle ef Kaa- ana.

Many States, he sUd, nam bees admitted without the subsntasicw of their Oonsrltottan, and he thought the Leeompton Conven-Iten woo Id have acted more In accordance with the nrtnctpl of the country if it bad not subsaltted the Censtitanion to the people, either In whole or ia part. Vur wovcrnment ia aot a Democracy, but Republican. To this point he emoted President anise, aiding that our fathers knew a pure Democracy is mere the voice of a Demon than the voice of God.

History has proven that a pure Democracy ia the snost rapacious of tyrannies, wholly irresponsible, acknowledging no master, because It is law unto itself. It is even ready to carry Into excess the prejudice of the hour, rather thaa principle. He regretted the growing proclivity towards Democratizing, or rather mobocratizing, every department of our Government. This, he asserted, ia the Red Repub-neanism ef Revolutionist sheer radicalism. Goi forbid that It should eupersede and swallow up the philosophical Republican princlplee of our fathers.

Turning next to the ooeauon of Slavery, be remarked that property was always tbe foundation of the social labile, and that in the formation of our Constitution Slave property was specially protected. The Uatoa owed fta being to-day to the institution of Slavery, and slave property la sheltered under the sgi ef tbe Constitution, Notwithstanding these facta, there is a party in thia country pledged to the extermination of that proper ty.

IIocitox on his courage in the field as wall aa wisdom in council. Mr. Hocstosi replied that every American cltixen had courage, and if he had ever displayed any In an eminent degree, It was when he stood up here against the opinions of his friends, and opposed the Nesraaka bill. He regarded that bill aa a fatal sneasure, foster ed by demagogues, ot iginated by ambition, and in tended only to unite the South with a few Northern States, to make a President. Mr.

Clst answered thathe Missouri restriction placed a badge of inferiority on the slavebolding Stale. Tbe Legislature ef Texas had condemned Mr. Hontoa for rotinr against that bill, Mr. UousTon said be made the State of Texas, but did not make tbe people. They came there anyhow but their condemnation of his vote did not dis honor hint.

Mr. Dosxxb, of Wisconsin, said that he intended to make a speech, but bis health being poar, be would gat his colleague to read it for him. He took strong rruund as-alnst the Lecomnton Constitution, and re iterated the arguments generally urged on that side.

Giuux, Scuts, (N. CO ami Wiuioi, the Special Committee to investigate the Pennsylvania Bank affair. The bill for the increase of the amy by the enoli- ment of four regiments of volunteers was taken up, Mr. Fattluibb of "Virginia, from the minority of the Military Committee, offered an amendment to the following effect To retain that part of the bill pro-tiding for the organisation of a regiment of mounted volunteers for the defence of the frontier of Texas, but instead of authorizing the President to accept tbe services of our regiments of volunteers for the pur-poce of quelling the disturbance of Utah, and for the protection of supply aad emigrant train and the sup pression of Indian hostilities, to add to the present military establishment one regiment of dragoons and two regiments ef infantry, to eerve for two yeara. The amendment was rejected by yeaa 43 nays 141.

Mr. QtrrtaAJt's bHl for the raising of five regiments of volunteers was then ordered to be engrossed for a third reading, by 138 agalnat 74 and was finally patted by 134 against 7. Tbe bill as passed authorizes the President to re ceive into setvlce one regiment of Texas Mounted Volunteers for the defence of the frontier thereof and for the purpose of quelling disturbance in Utah, for the protection of supply and emigrant trains, and the suppression of Indian hostilities on the Itoi thern and Nuith western frontiers, the President is authorized to accept the services of any number of Volunteers, not to exceed in all ljur regiments tue same, or any portion thereof to be organized Into inounte 1 regi-mt nln or Infantrv.as the President may tie ern prooer. The Volunteers are not to be accepted in bodies of less man one regiucni, wnoie ipmcer suati oe appointed in the manner prescribed by law in the several States Snd Territories to which said regiments shall respectively belong. Tbe House Deficiency bill was taken up, and Mr.

Lbtchbb explained tome items. Mr. Mostooxxit spoke on the Kansas question, lie said, disguise the question as gentlemen might, it was, whether the Constitution could be forced on the people of Kansas against their will Not a member had come to the defence of the Prealdeni. He remarked, aad he thought with all due deference to the Ex ecu-tire, that no man would undertake it, Tbe President has informed us that the Kansas-Nebraska act required to be submitted to the people the question of tbe lr domestic institutions, and a few others. Now if these few others have not been submitted, then the President is himself a witness that Lecompton Is illegal The domestic Institutions include the wbolee Internal civil policy of a State, of husband aad wife, of guardian and ward, as well as master and servant.

So it waa not true that the Slavery question was submitted. It wat submitted only as to whether slaves shall here-afUr be imported into the Territory of Kansas from places ouiakle. He repeated that the Slavery question waa never submitted. Slavery existed in Kansas, and under the Lecomnton Constitution would exist until twilight time. The Kansas-Nebraska act, he contended, gave the people but one thing that was tbe power to legislate lor toeruselves.

There was nothing else In it but the Lecomnton Convention repealed, destroyed, paralyzed it. He defined a constitution to be a compact, which, after having been agreed on by agents, is to be ratified and confirmed by principals. This point he explained at length, quoting from Wttirrji la its tup-port. Tbe people, he contended, never had aa opportunity tn vote for defecates to the Lecompton Con veation. Nineteen counties wero exelu ied.

If you have the right to disfranchise nineteen counties, you have the right to disfranchise all but one, giving mat single county the power to form a constitution. If this be right, then despotism haa a deep, solid foundation, aad the representative eystem no foundation whatever. Tbe Legislature of Kaasaa, aad delegates from the Territory, solemnly protest against forcing the Lecompton Contilution upon them, la the name of God, he asked, have not the people of Kanna pro. tasted in a saost solemn form against this act of usurpation Mr. Raaaax, of Texas, admitted that lnregularittos had existed in Kansas but.

he said, it was enough for the bate to know that she now presents herself for admission into toe Cnion, with a Republican Constitution. Be rose to speak ef the general aspect of the blavery question, regarding the Kansas agitation aa one of tbe acts In the drama. He thea proceeded to defend Texas and the South from the prejudices against them existing at the North. Some gentlemen ha-1 branded the people of the South aa tadels and alave-drivara. lie believed ia this they only gave expression to the feeling of their constituents.

He would talk plainly to these gentle-men. While they are eompUiaiag of the Lo-eomptoe Ceaatftottoa on too ground that it does not embody the will of the people, they als. when closely pressed, declare they will admtt no mere Slave Stasia into the nton. lie believed that tbe Rewreeeatatrvoa of South, if true to theea. elves aad the chivalry of their fi-a-ea, would ptoee taemsalvaa eisttoeUy eat record.

The South, he asserted, are to-day bettor prspaiad for the torue than they ill he a year hone. Be would meet the tone nl the thraahOML He then aduded to the Teaaa rmn. Juiisnt, pietisf for the electa of deegtot to the NEW-YORK, SATURDAY, MARCH 20, 1858. Southern Convention, contending that they were nsi ftanf but pretmntknsary. They look not aaeraly to Kansas, but the whole Anti-slavery excitement.

They look to the decMoa. of the groat question, whether the Southern Stales are be equal Sover-eigatle under the CoasUtuuos. If this be denied, tr-ea Ihe South must took to the people for a docMnn. whether they are. to remain bound to tbe cotossal power of the North under a violated Constitution, or whether they will preserve their rights aad independence under a separata Government.

He trusted that Texas had taken a position front which se would not rati eat. All the protection the South wants la unmolested enjoyment of her rights. jMijmuneo. Penauer Cord Yeeaabo nnd of the L.eeow Ptannlea The ntteo Clew. Qafta tann Army BUI, ebe.

Tret Oar Own Oerreenendeeit. Wasaunevea, Friday, March IS, 1853. There ia little of interest here at present outside the debate on the Kansas bill of which distant read ers probably hare bad a surfeit. Here, however, the lag giag interest has beea revived by the speeches of Mr. Caif iaasear yesterday, and Messrs.

Toona, Carr- Txxaxx and Bxu to-day. The Senator from Georgia probably care as little for the Lecompton bill as any aaan In Congress, earnest and energetic as be has been in its support. He is a dlsunlonlst as thoroughly at wx. Iaotb Gaxxisoa ia an Abolitionist. I use toe term tn no offensive tense.

Mr. Teenaa has brought himself tobalieve that the interests of both sections of tbe Union would be promo hud by a separation, hence he desires to bring about the aeparatioa if it be pos sible, aad this struggle over the Lecompton Constitu tion haa seemed likely to present the meet favorable opportunity for such a consummation. Of course the North would not secede even though Lecompton were to past. That Mr. Tookxs knew very weU.

The Sooth alone caa be expected to take the initia tive tn such a policy and, as there could be no pre text on tbe part of the latter for secession unless the Lecompton Constitution is rejected by Congress, of course tbe Senator from Georgia could not find oo easlon for trtartlng the disunion ball until the prospect of such rejection waa near. That time has come at last. Tbe wisest leaders among the Lecomptonltes now fear that the fate of their pet scheme of fraud la sealed; and to-day Mr. Tooass steps boldly forward, and unfurl hit banner of disunion to the breeze, with the significant declaration that, to fifteen States, this Kansas question Is of more importance than the Union itself. Now for the recruits.

We shall toon learn who of the South ern Repretentativei In Congren are prepared to proclaim the dissolution of the Union, abandoning their seats, aad returning to their constituencies to lay tbelr commissions at their feet for that I understand to be the contemplated asedus tperendi. The recruiting sergeant certainly had poor success to-day. It was not a Northern Senator who, with prompt and manly indignation, rebuked him on the Instant that he invited support for a flag with only fifteen stars. It was Bxix, of Tennessee, one of the oldest, as he ia one of tbe wisest and ablest, living statesmen of the South. And the gallant Caimatxit, too whose fidelity to Southern Institutions Is as unquestionable as bis patriotism, and as ardent as ia his eloquence exposed the contemplated treason, and marked Its infamy in phrases kind and gentle as a parent's chid ing, and yet to forcible and thrilling as to draw spon taneous demonstrations of applaese from his audi tort.

It will not do. The wolTa cry hat lott its power. Popular sovereignty will be maintained by tbe rejection of the Leoompton swindle, and thus will the game of the disunionlsts be effectually blocked. I waa not wrong last night in anticipating a change of tactics out Depart of the Lecomptonltes, for Cal- aoctt declarest hat tbe Free-Stale Legislature la Kansas is elected, and that he will issue the certificates accordingly. How strangely opportune this sudden conviction of his duties.

Just when the President see that the Lecompton toad la too heavy to carry. and that his craft la about to sink, behold Engineer Cauovx attempts to lighten it of course because ke haa obtained new light WeU, warn does he intend to issue those certificates At once, certainly. If be Is honest In his declaration. He hopes that thi move will enable the President to obtain three or four needed votes tn Pennsylvania and Indiana bu he cannot expect his promise to be taken on trust Let have the oertiheatca, Mr. Catnoirsr, if you are satisfied, as you say you are; and at hen you have committed yourtelf thus Inevitably, so that Kansas is sure to be a free State, we shall see how many of the Southern supporters of the Lecompton scheme wit desert your standard.

This last trick will avail nothing, for It in no way improve the Lecompton instrument, which is a fraud, and to Constitution, under aay and all circumstances. There It not a man who will yield his oppo siuon tnereto upon nnaing inat tne ree-state men have control of the Government, who has not been a traitor to the cause from the beginning, and who would not 1 ave found some other pretext for selling out to the Administration were tola one wanting, So, too, no true man ill be seduced from his allegi ance to a principle, by the anticipation of political gain for himself or his partitan friends. As a frau 1 a initio, the Lecompton Constitution can be maintained by no just man who gives it a fair examination, for any consideration whatever. To-morrow the House wOi probably pan Gen. QcirxAjT sblll authorizing the President to raise a volunteer force to protect the frontier, and for service in Utah.

I believe it will also pasa the Senate, unless the Administration shall operate to secure it defeat. The chief objection made to volunteers by the War Department, is that they are more expensive than regulars, but when Congreas take that responsibility upon themselves, the Executive can hardly complain-If troops are needed for service in Utah, they will be at the President's command through tbe medium of this bill, probably within a week or two at latest.

I shall hardly attempt to bring up the back work, but shall endeavor to keep somewhere within hall until the Legislature rant into Summer quartere. auaame kastsas Haa at last been finally disposed of, both In the Senate and in the Assembly. It was the special order In the Senate last evening, with the understanding that the veto should be taken this morning. Tbe closing debate was superior to anything which haa transpired in the Senate these many yeara.

It was not premeditated, but came up, the child of the moment, on some chance questions and responses. The sharpest, most keen retorts, and the most glittering sentences were between Senators Divan and Wimvoiix. By one of those peculiar accidents of debates, these two seemed destined to run the hut tills, to break the last-lances They meet with something of the old chiralrte spirit, and la firm and determined conflict championed tha opposing sorcea. On the reassembling of the Senate this morning, the ftnal vote waa taken. Tbe resolution had been to amended aa to substitute toe resolve of the House for those originally offered by Senator Divan.

A aow rn rxra nottsi. I left the House quite an orderly body.

At leist, It was as orderly as could be expected of such a congregation. Going down to the office of the hotel, I encountered a friend taking a hasty glance at the register. I tried to detain him long enough to gather from him a brief narrative of such prominent events as had transpired while I had been taking practical lessons ia the science of medicine. Oh, excuse me," was his response, I must hurry back to the Assembly. I have been out five minutes now, and if I stay much longer, shall nut a fight And he broke away.
