Mr. Pryor is still in Virginia, and has

no connection betweea toe homestead bill
and the slavery question. . The homestead
bill was a great beneficien1, philanthropic,
and Cliristari measure,' rising above party.
He believed if the ten commandments "or
the Lord's"' Prayer Trere under conside
ration the negro would be introduced some-'

tron of the slairery question. - The bomc
stead principle was introduced in 1791,'un
derlhe administration of General "Wash
ington," who, he believed, was from the
Old Dominion, and "be signed the bill.
Ho believed that he (Washington) was as
great a tnan as any of the modern lights
and lie preterrea loitowmg nis guidance.
Mr. Jefferson also' endorsed the ' principle,
and. be 'preferred being 'associated with
Washington and Jefferson that with those
wb6 now represented Virginia. "'
Mr. Johnson was quite caustic In his al
lusions to the -Senator from Virginia," and
defended the homestead principle at consid
erable length.- - In the course -of his: re
marks, he pointed out that this: principle
had been frequently adopted in bills which
had passed during the term of the Senator
from Virginia, and yet be had not protested
against them. ' This argued want, of fidel
ityon his part, and should disqualify bim in
the eyes of his constiuents.' . He also read
Mr.Mason's rotes in pas treats to alio w that
be voted for the same principle as contain
ed in the bill now tinder consideration.
Tennessee did not stand here to be rebuked
by the Senator from any Stale. Now, as
heretofore, she could take .care of herself
either n the field or in the council cham
ber. The Republican party, being short
of capital, had seized opoa the homestead
measure because it was popular, but it or
iginated before the Republican party existed,
and . of Democratic 1 origin. Ho re
plied to Mr. Wigfall's remark that poverty
was a crime, and said if this was so the
country was full of criminal?. , .ss
. Mr. Johnson discussed a large variety
of topics and in the course of his remarks
said that Mr. Calhoun was more of a polili-
siaa tnan g isatesmanv tie bad not the cast
of mind to found- a great . party, and had
only established a sect. .7 - -; ...,flSi , , (
Mi. Mason replied that be was surprised
that the Senator bad poured out the' vials
of .his wrath upon him.'- He bad suppo
sed that they were on the same side of the
channel, and united by a common interest.

the measures brought forward by the, Re
publican organization for the avowed pur
pose of breaking down Southern insula-.
Hons.; He .defended. -.himself from the
taunt that he had been silent . while bills
embodying this principle had passed the
Senate.? He denied that the principle of
inn homestead but was contained. 10 tiie
legislation -of 1850.- .The policy recom
mended by the earlier Presidents, and car

the subject. He said be was tired of this

thai the homestead bill was a Democratic
measure, and asked when it became a part
of-the platform. It bad been adopted by
the s Republicans. - Anybody who; denied
that this Government was, simply a com
pact between the States was no Democrat.
He reiterated that the homestead bill con

this subject came before the House under
different 'circufflstaacasi than it- did two
years ago, when tha 'contest was between
border ruffians and emigrant aid societies',
petween Sharp's rifles and bowie knives.
Blood was tben flowing from' the - wounds
of Kansas, and her virgin soil Was dosecra

in the House. He opposed the admission
of Oregon and Minnesota, because their re
pectjve Constitutions'" permitted alien suf
frage; afuTbesides, h did not believe that
Oregon now ha a population of 50,000.
Ha referred tc. the Tennessee Opposition
platform, in 'which 'the extension of the
period of probation for foreigners is advo
cated and itis detlaredii foreigners, not
naturalized, should be prevented from vo
ting at elections. On this declaration,
.aereftv out. -ten -lfieaBberarof Congress

''- He moved that the bill be recommitted
to the CoTOmiltee'On Territoriewitb' in

exclude all the lands belonging to the Cher
okee Indians. Thrs we owe to the Amer
ican character and our treaty faith -with
this tribe. J '- - ?;"' ' .;" . .'--"
Mr. Gooch, of Massachusetts, in reply lo
Mr. Clark,' of Missouri, denied that the
people of Kansas, in the formation, of the
Wyandottee; Constiution, have' acted "in
violation of the law.'- No; Congress ' has
power to' say that the people shall not send
up a petition asking for admisiotr into the
the Union. - The English ! Compromise
was not an enabling act. It should not
take away any" of the rights secured under
tho Constitution of the United States.
There was the authority of that Constitu
tion,'' and a precedent for the -admission
of Kansas into the Union, and the peo
ple acted precisely as they should have
acted.. The Englishill imposed no res-'
traint on the power of the-present Con
gress. The admission of the new States
was a matter of discretion. He would go
still further, and say that, even if he bad vo
ted for the English bill though he wonld"
have cosidered that the most unfortunate
act of his life if would not preclude him
from voting for the adraLsion of Kansas
under the . Wyandottee Constitution. 'It
had been shown that there is sufficient pop
ulation in Kansas, which has every element
to organize an .efficient State Government.
He answered the objections as to boundary,
saying that the Indian territory was pro
tected by a treaty which Congress cannot
infringe." And whatever might bi" the
merits of the question with regard to voters,
he thonght it would be unfair and unjust
to apply to Kansas a principle not extend
ed to other new States. " He trusted that
Kansas would be admitted into the Union,'
and thus the strife which has so long exis
ted be terminated. ' ; : ' ' ' "
' Mr.- Quarlcs", of Tennessee, opposed the
bill on the ground that the provision inclu
ding the Indian lands with the boundaries
of Kansas is violative of the treaties with
that people Xhey should have complied
with the English bill. ' The population
was not sufficient; and besieds, the Wyan
dotte Constitution was anti-republican ac
cording to the definition of the Constitu
tion of the United States, because it per
mits foreigners to- vote. Having repudi
ated the English- biH," Kansas was here
without the authority of law. "- a - "A
Mr. Cox, of Ohio, declared himself in
favor of the bill, as a friend of the jeople
of .Kansas. ' He repudiated the extraor
dinary speech delivered yesterday by the
delegate from Kansas (Mr. Parrott) believ'
ing its tendency was to jeopardize "the ad
mission, of "the State." It was open to the
charge of unfairness, and splenetic, show
ing more temper than wisdom whnlever
might be, its 'merit as an oratorical pro
duction., it might be in the line of his du
ty to lecture the members of the House.
, Mr. Parrtot (interrupting) claimed that
he held his seat here' by' a right'equal to
that of the gentleman from Ohio, and asked
him to sepecifv the objeclibnab!e language-
i ' Mr. Cox, resuming, said that Mr.'Parrott
bad not done justice to tne men who un
dertook here to remove the Lecompton
Constitution from the balls of Congress.
1 ho' delegate, while, cliargmg that the
English bill was intended to keep Kansas
out of the Union, made no exception to
his sweeping libel., lbe intention of some
of those who voted for it was ,'to" enable
the people of Kansas to reject the Lecom
ton Constitution, and this was his (Mr,
Cox's) declared purpose. To" call the
English bill, as did the delegate from
Kansas, "a mean and false contrivance,"
was unjust to those who stood up in favor
of the rights of the people of Kansas.
As a "man of honor, he (Mr. (Jos) was
bound to vote for the bill." There was.no
difficulty with him as to the population of
Kansas. . He refered to the evidence of the
voles and tho registry. ' If the Democrat?
had had fair play , in the election there,
the people would not have been thrown
under the corrupt rule, of the corrupt lie
publican party. T ile would vole' for the
bill because be thought it right, and not
merely to get rid of. the question. When
be voted for the English bill ho reserved
bis discretion, - He could vote for Kansas
whenever she came hero with a - constitu
lion approved by the people. He so staled
ai the time He showed that Kansas had
complied with the English bill. The en-
abliug act, with toe ceucus in it, was not
restrictive. -It was only a proposition to
Kansas. If she accepted it, well and good.
If she refused it, very well. She can do
as she pleases. Congress can act as it
pleases at every stage . of its proceedings.
It can repeal as well aa enact, r All the
substantive parts of th& Euglish bill Kan
sas bad accepted. He referred to his jus
tification of his vote by his .constituents,
Bhown ' in bis coming here wilh double
his former majority. In spile of all ; the
vituperation and abuse, and a most, unex
ampled personal contest, ; It was returned
here, and as the crowning act of that tri
umph, he will vote for the admission of
Kansas. - -
Mr.1 Pryor, of Virginia, rising to a qucs-
lon of privilege, read from the Globe the
report- concerning the difficulty in the
House on Thursday last, and quoted the
following: '' '' t ' ' " ''' ; m"r !

Mr. Potter. You are doing the same
thing."
, Mr. Pryov after this extract was read,
aid that it waa due to himself to say that
on that occasion he did not recognise the
giving separate accounts of the proceed
ing made no referrecce to bis presence.
But finding him reported in the Globe, he
would admit that the member was here.
He discovered that tho member bad inter
polated the record m ar manner touching
his personal relations in a ' most material
regard." The "membebad interpolated the
words "let the consequence be what they
may," and "yon are -doing the same thing."
Then; again, after the words as taken down
by the reporters "I do not think that side
of the House has a right to say where a
gentleman may speak," the gentleman adds
"and be shall not." " "
Mr. Potter, of Wisconsin, was very much
surprised to "bear the gentleman say that
he did not see bim on the occasion alluded
to, but he bad no right to say that the
gentleman did see him. He stood with
in a few feet from the gehtlemari, and after
Mr." Pryor had made the remark as to Mr.
Lovejoy shaking his fist, be (MK Potter)
said, "You are doing the same thing.'He
said Ibis, as bethought, distinctly. - As to
the correction of the record, he did what
be had a right to' do, and the gentleman
himself did the same thing.' ' It was per'
fectly natural, where there were so many
talking, that the reporters should not have
heard all the remarks distincly. ' - '
Mr. Pryor'" replied" that the member
might have been here, but ho did not see
bim. He did, in two instances, substitute
one word for another, in no respect chang
ing the sense of his meaning, and'not put
ting himself in a more heroic attitude.
He understood the gentleman tben to say,
that on that occasion ho(Pryor) in a ruf
fianly and violent manner, approached and
gesticulated toward the member from Illi
nois (Mr. Lovejoy.) Was he to understand,
further, that the member intended by that
any menace or offence'.' ; "
Mr. Potter replied that what he meant
was this, that while the member from Vir
ginia was making the . charge about' Mr.
Lovejoy shaking his. fists, he (Mr. Potter)
said, very naturally, you nre doing the ssme
thing. Mr. Poller said that he deprecated
shaking fists on one side as much as on the
other, and he stood by what he said."" He
considered that the member has the right
to correct his remarks from the notes of the
reporters and ' to ' supply omissions. He
would ask Mr. Pryor, did ho not erase Mr.
Potter's remarks after it was put in by the
reporters, and what right had he to do. this
without consulting him t ; It was a liberty
no gentleman should take with" regard to
another, and he would suffer his right arm
to .fall off before ho would do it.
Mr. Pryor. The gentleman wants to
know by what authority I erased the mat
ter inteipoialed.'' I erased no word that
the reporters had wrif-en, but I felt author
ized to erase the unwarrantable anifiorper
tinent interjection made in the notes of the
reporters. ' The gentleman' stands by bis
language. ' I understand him "to give me
the 1'berty of constructing his remarks as I;
choose. Whether or no ho will stand, by
it, the sequel will demonstrate.'" , ILanghter
from the Republican side."! ' 1 " ; 3
Mr. Dawes, of Massachus ells,, said- be
heard Mr. Potler make the remarks. . . ' '
Messrs. Smilh,'of,Virginia,'and Garnet,
of Virginia, severally expressed their views
against the Kansas bill. ' .
Mrl Grow, of Pennsylvania,'. closed the
argument in" favor of the bill., .As to the
boundaries they are the same as the Senate
and House have heretofore approved, the
area being 83,000 square miles. . With re
gard to her population, each house, two
years ago declared that Kansas had' a pop
ulation sufficiently large for a State, She
has a voting population of over 17,000.
One hundred and fifty-two of .the Congres
sional districts each have less. He also ar
gued that nothing ' in the" proposed boun
daries would prejudice . the Indian rights.

open a new chapter in tho history of Kan

States, 'in all respects whatsoever." The
