. The business .'of Legislation is; pro
gressing as rapidly as could be expected.
-But as most of the members are new,
and each one feeling the awful responsi
bility of his position, and the absolute
necessity of amending and changing our
present laws, as well as the enactment of
an abundance of new ones, the work of
the session promises to be' arduous
With" one hundred and four members of
the House who must go "kiting" to im
mortality upon the bills they introduce,
or not go at all, it will readily be. seen
that the tables must "groan'' under the
weight of that kind of literature. It is
nbt necessary to encumber "our letters
witH abstracts of all the "bills." They
must, however, ; go through the mill,
which will occupy much time; but in the
end most of them will be strangled, as
they deserve. 7 .
-A. very interesting discussion lias been
had in the! Senate upon a bill to revive
the ten percent, interest law. ; The prop
osition was introduced on the first day of
the session, and was disposed of in that
body to-day by an indefinite postpone
ment. ' Some of the ablest of the Sena
tors took opposite sides, and the debate
demonstrated the fact that in that branch
of the .Legislature there is some of the
best talent in the State. The decisive
majority by which the bill was indefi
nitely postponed after full discussion,
settles the fate of that measure for this
session. A large number of. the mem
bers of the House, if not a majority,
would vote for the change; but the deci
sive vote of the Senate demonstrating,
as it does, that the measure cannot pass
that body, will save the consumption of
time in its consideration by the House.
Mr. Harrison,' an able Republican
member, of the Senate, but strongly
tinctured with old hunkerism, and rep
resenting a constituency of the same sort
in part, introduced to the Sonate, on the
first or second day of the session, a bill
to proteet our "Southern brethren" from
military invasions from this State. This
"apple Of discord," although not so in
tended by its author,1 has ' revived the
drooping hopes of the Democracy in an
ticipation of a conflict, in the ranks of
the Republicans, 'It is very well known
that but very few of the Republicans
can vote for the bill, but it is hoped that
enough can be induced to do so to pass
it, with the aid oi the entire Democratic
force'.. -Mr., Monroe, from tho Committee
to whom the bill was referred, has made
an able and, we think, unanswerable mi
nority report, showing why the bill
should not pass. Final action has not
yet been taken upon it ia the - Senate,
and jt has not, of course, come up in the

j Quite a spirited discussion sprung up
to-day on a motion to print the usual
number of copies jof Gov: Dennison's in
augural address. ' The Democrats came
down upon the document in. regular
South Carolina style. "Such sentiments
were wholly unfit to go before the peo
ple. . That if read by the Jeople and
sanctioned by them the Union would be
dissolved, as the South would never sub
mit to remain in the Union if such sen
timents were permitted to be proclaimed
in Ohio, &c." Some indiscreet gentle
man demonstrated their entire sympa
thy with the Despotism which has sup
pressed the freedom of speech and the
press in the Democratic States of the
South, and that all that was wanting was
the power to inaugurate the same Des
potism herei But before the vote was
taken it was discovered that, by a law
passed several years ago, the inaugural,
as well as other messages, were required
to be published, and the number of cop-
lies fixed, so that the "incendiary" docu
ment could not. be suppressed.
There is also another Democratic bill
before the House, which will come up in
a day or . two, and will doubtless elicit
some discussion. Indeed, the object of
the bill is simply to make "Buncombe"
speeches upon. It involves the "negro
question," of course, as do. also several
others already introduced. But we will
wait until action is taken before analyz
ing the bill. It is sufficiently atrocious,
however, to suit the taste of even Ala
bama slave drivers. Oae section of it
makes it a crime punished by heavy fine
and imprisonment for any person to bring
a slave,, (no matter of what color, coun
try, or under what eiicumsten e,) into
this State "for the purpose of emancipa
ting tuck slave." Other provisions pun
ish, with fine and imprisonment, any
person iu ihjs State, who shall, in any
manner, harbor or employ any free nc
gro or mulatto who shall come into the
State after a day named in said bill. . We
don't think the bill can pass. We know
it could not pass in Austria or ' Russia.
But that may be owing to the absence of
Democracy there.. "

Colcmbcs, January 12, lPfiO.
" A. week ago we gave some account of
a Republican caucus, with strictures upon
some members elected by the Republi
cans, but who disclaimed the name and
were understood to be disposed to act
with the Democrats in defeating an elec
tion of an U. S. Senator. Tbe caucus,
as then stated, adjourned for one week,
and met again last night. The Senntors
were all present, and all the members of
the House except eight, and four of these
were necessarily detained. The session
was long and the interchange of views
perfectly free, and entire good feeling
prevailed throughout. It-was clearly
ascertained that if any were disposed to
act factiouslyj there were not enough of
them to accomplish the purpose of de
feating an election. To do so required
six members of the House, and it was
ascertained that that number could not be
obtained for such an object. A few,
however, insisted' on postponing the
nomination, and the majority, in defer
ence to their wishes, consented to defer
a nomination until the first day of Feb
ruary. X He conlerence passed on pleas
antly, and all those prescntwho were ex
pected to,- make difficulty, gracefully
yielded the point, and agreed to go into
the nomination at the time named, which
will secure the election of some good Re
publican. :
No vote was taken to indicate the
choice of the majority, although it is
pretty well understood upon whom that
choice will fall. ,. There will probably
be but one name brought before the cau
cus, and the nomination will be unani
mous. Thif, however, is not certain. If
Gov. Chase is not, on that evening, found
to be the unanimous choice of the entire
caucus, then the names of Corwin, Stan
ton, Sehenek, Delano, Horton, and per-;
haps others, will be presented, and the
nominee, whoever he may be, will re
ceive the entire Republican vote in both
Houses. If Gov. Chase should be se
lected there will be three, and possibly
four, of the members who call them
selves "opposition" who will vote against
him. If any of the other gentleman
named should receive the nomination, he
will receive the whole Republican vote, of
course. : If. Gov., Chase is not nominated
we think Hon. V. B. Horton stands de
cidedly the best ehance of any other L
man in the State. With either of those
gentlemen we think our constituents
would be satisfied.
As surmised in our lust letter, the
Statesman is down upon Gov. Dennison's
inaugural address. In the position in
which Northern Democrats are placed by
their necessary subserviency to the
Southern leaders, the slightest reference
to the former action of the Government ; liepublicans.

out of the popular xniad. if possible, thej aid we should stand or fall by what

slave drivers. The task is a hard one,
and we don't think it will pay.
The bill referred to in a previous let
ter, which sought to further depress the
colored population by the most barbor
ous enactments, was iip to-day in Com
mittee of the Whole, but elicited no ex
tended debate. The author of the bill
made a long and incoherent harangue
without point or argument.
After the usual slang of his class,
that the Republicans universally were
in favor of marrying negroes, and plac
ing them above white men, &c, he went
off on the opposite track and asserted
that the Democracy were the only true
friends the negroes had in the State or
in the Union. In proof of this he
went on to show that negroes ne er
did and never would settle in a State or
Co inty where the Republicans largely
predominated. " Nobody could guess
what the gentleman was aiming at. He
hid doubtless gathered up some scraps
of. that kind of literature which- Joe
Geiger, and his like deal in, and having
used it on the stump among the unterri-"
fie J, supposed it would make a sensation
in the House. We must do the Demo
crats here this j ustice to say that they were
thoroughly disgusted, while the Repub
licans enjoyed the fun. It failed to elicit
any discussion, although a good deal of
sport was made over it. It was finally
referred to its author - as a select Com
mittee. No bills of any importance have yet
been matured, although they are com
ing in by the score. You will be ad
vised of them as they progress. ;
Congress is still unorganized, and
some scenes of filibustering and disor
ders are kept up by the factions op
posed to the Republicans. Sherman
still lacks three votes of an election. It
would seem that the Democratic mem
bers would get tired of their nauseating
repetition of threats to dissolve the
Union ' But, bringing, as they do, from
their plantations the manners as well as
dispositions of overseers, they apply the
same methods to Northern members that
they do. to their slaves. They know of
no other government than that of force,
no motive of action than that of fear.
Hence their bluster. Well, let them
fume, and let all slaves submit. .

till Monday.
. House. Mr.. Smith, of Va., said
there were two propositions in the reso
lution of Mr. Clark, of Mo.' The first
was that the doctrines of Helper's book
arc insurrectionary and hostile to the
peace of the country, and was not this
true to the very letter? He asked the
question.'
The next was that no member of this
House, who endorsed and recommended
the doctrines and sentiments , therein af
firmed is fit to be Speaker of this House.
Was not this also true? He wanted an
answer.
. Mr. Bingham, of Ohio, wished- only
to say to the gentlemen of the House
and of the country that when the gentle
man denounces that book without limit
ation as an incendiary production, he
denounces the last wiil and testament of
Washington, a copy of which is con
tained in that book.
The resolution denounces the Declar
ation of the Convention of Virginia of
1774, instructing the Congress at Phila
delphia in that year. The resolution
denounces the living sentiments of Jef
ferson, copied from his own Notes of
Virginia, namely: "I tremble for my
country when I reflect that God is just,
and has no attribute to take sides against
the slaves for their rights and liberties."
Mr. Smith replied that he hoped the
House understood that the member from
Ohio endorsed the Helper book.
Mr.. Bingham I' ask the' gentleman
whether he repudiates those sentiments?
Mr. Smith- That is not the question.
Mr. Bingham It is not, eh?
Mr. Smith I wish ' the House and
country' to understand that he endorses
the book, and for this he deserves the
detestation and scorn of every man who
forms a part of the American Union.
Mr. Smith pointed to various clauses
to shov the" slavery, compromises there
in, and said: "Why does not the gen
tleman respond?" :
Mr. Bingham "I want the gentleman
to know I am not his slave." :
. Mr. Smith "No, if. you were, you
would do better than ybu do now. You
would get what you needy"; (Laughter.)
' Mr. Bingham "Will you let me an
swer in my own manner, or will you di
rect me what to say." "'':
Mr. Smith I direct you to take, your
seat. . .
Mr. Binghan I ! regret the gentle
man is so ill-mannered.
The subject then dropped.

House. A point of order was raised
on Friday by Mr. Leake, as to the ad
missibility of Mr. Pennington's plural
ity resolution, and ' tins morning it was
passed over informally.
Mr. Underwood indulged the hope
that by this, debate the people of the
South had been aroused to their position
in the Union, and have become fully ac
nuHinted with the ends and aims of the

; the floor for nearly four hours.
Mr. Morris replied to a portion of Mr.
Underwood's remarks, and brought the
President up to his record on the slavery
question, on which he arraigned him the

This is a day of great skirmishing in
the House.
Mr. Hutchins, of Ohio, got the floor,
and made a motion instead of a resolu
tion, that the House proceed to ballot
for Speaker, and that the member re
ceiving the highest number of votes be
declared Speaker, and on this he de
manded the previous question before any
Democrat thought of objecting. They
had not anticipated such a motion at all,
and certuiuly not from a new- member,
like' Mr. H utchins, and were much dis
concerted by it. A scene of great con
fusion ensued. . . ;
. The Clerk stated the question: "Will
the House entertain the motion of the
gentleman from Ohio?", but upon the
suggestion of Democrats he modified it
thus: "Is the motion of the gentleman
from Ohio in. order." To both , these
propositions the Republicans cried out,
"good," "that's right:"
If the question could be taken on
cither of these, the plurality rule might
.be .forced; but the Cierk, without put
ting the question, recognized Sickles, of
New York, who offered another proposi
tion, in the share of an amendment
to Mr. Hutchins' motion, atlhough no
amendment could be in order after the
demand for the previous question, and
in this way the Democrats have filibus
tered, in order to prevent any vote upon
Hutchins' motion. ..- '
There is more talk than ever of a night
session to-night. The majority of the
Republicans are now ready. for this trial
of physical endurance, which it is evi
dent must be had, sooner or later. . I
judge now that there will be a protracted
session, though I do not think that the
first experiment of the sort will result in
the election of a Speaker. ' . . .
Washington, Jan. IS.
This morning the House was a scene
of great confusion, caused by Washburn
of Maine, insisting on his point of order,
viz: that the Clerk should put the ques
tion to the House, which he said he
would put. The Democrats then deter
mined that he should not put it, and the
Republicans that he should put it. ' The
Clerk, after an hour of noisy wrangling
was driven by his Democratic masters to
say that he would not put any question
while any member was on the floor, when
ihe point of order was made. This of
course operated as a gag on the ques
tion. Thus the Democrats continue to
perpetuate the disorganization.
. To-day a new breeze sprung up. Car
ter of N. Y., charged upon Briggs, his
colleague, that he had voted for men
who were in favor of a slave code lor the
Territories.
Briggs repelled the charge. : Boteler
of Virginia, who was voted for by Briggs,
declared that he was in favor of a slave
ode ior the Territories. . Etheridge of
Tennessee, declared that he was not.
Carter's charge was fully, sustained by
the acknowledgment of Boteler.
i. Briggs declared that "he believed that
slave property .is protected by the Con
stitution in the Territories, but he was
not in favor of any Congressional action
to give it further protection.
Hickman of Pa., made a speech yes
terday, fixing Upon the Democrats the
responsibility ot the disorganization.
it may interest Douglas delegates to
know that Bowman refused to publish an
article recommending the Democrats to
unite on an Anti-Lecompton Democrat.
He (Bowman) said he would rather see
Sherman in the Chair than such a disor
ganize as he called the proposed candi
date. Wa.dinoION, J: B. IP.
The debate in the House yesterday,
was damaging in the extreme to the De
mocracy. ; ;
The (southern men again pledged the
North-western Democrats to the Slave
Code doctrine. Cox, for himseif and
McClermand, repudiated this test. But
both took care to say that when the Su
preme Court shall decide that Buchanan's
interpretation of the Dred Scott decision
is correct, and that a slave code is proper,
they would then succumb. - .
Mr. Coliax brought out the fact,
which was acknowledged by several
Southern Democrats, . that they . have
signed a paper, pledging themselves to
resist, by ail parliamentary stratagem, a
vote on the plurality rule. . j
The attempt to bring the House to
vote on the points of order, which nov
stand in the way of the adoption of the
plurality rule, is vigorously prosecuted
by the Republicans,; but the .disunion
Democracy filibuster and talk the time
away and prevent a ' vote. The Clerk
eontiuues to help 'them. . -No one pre-'
tends to guess when .the plurality' rule;
will bo yielded and an organization ef
fected.; . ; v ; -':' ' ..
The Senate is discussing the question
of its power to. proceed with , legislation
while the House'is di.-.ofgnized.; :, ;; . '.
i There is less talk.thuti ever, of aban
doning Sherman. TJbey. will adhere jto
him firmly. . Ilindman, of Arkansas, has
just made a strong and. fierce speech, de
nouncing tho Republicans. : . . ; . , j
The Republicans do not now contem
plate night session very soon, but Mill
have to come to it by and by. ;Thus fer,
this is one of the dullest days in the sess
ion. ' ' -
