Latimer and IiiJley became the victims of fanaticism, c;inbir.el with jealousy aud lust of power in Cinistijiii Lierarchs; and while I and the Jews of the ireent day protest against being identified with zealots who were concerned in the pro ceedings against Jctti of Nazareth, ve are far from reviling hiu character or deriding .his precepts. A large meeting was he'd in llonig winery, Ala., on the lOih inst., in relation to Kansas affaire and fr the purpose of forming nn or gauizsnon toco-operate with M-j. Jeff. Huford a citizen of that State, who roj ... to raise a company of men to emigrate to Kan-;.-. The design of the movement is to throw Southern ers enough in that country to counteract the intentions of the Free State men, and in the language- of their resolutions, to defend the right?, honor, and national exigence of the Southern States. There are in the United States 7C0 paper rai'ls in actual operation, having 3,000 engine?, and producing in a year 250,000,000 pounds of paper, which is worth, at 10 cents per pound, $23,000,000. To produce this quantity of pa per 405,000,000 pounds of rags are required, 1 3 4 pounds of rags being necessary to make 1 pound of paper. The value of these rags, at 4 cents per ponnd, is $10,000,000. In the Mipreme court, on the ICth, at Waoli ington, Justice McLean delivered his opinion to the court in the case of Manny's reaping ma chine, argued last summer at Cincinnati, bv Ileverdy Johnson and E. N. Dickerson for Mc Cormick, and E. M. Stanton and Geo. Harding for defendants, Manny & Co., deciding all points in favor of the defendants, refusing the injunction and dioiniiug the bill at McCor znick's cost. According to the Commercio, a respectable Oporto paper, all the worst anticipations of the viutage of the Alto Douro for the past year will be realized. A list is given of 45 cultiva tors, possessing 68 vineyards, and their pro duce for iHoo is compared with that of the average of former years. The result is 3Si pijes, against 5156 pipes. Taking this as a guide for estimating the whole production, it ii presumed that it will not this year exceed 7 1-2 per cent, of the average quantity. In order to obtain actual possession of the property which formerly belonged to her fath er in Now Orleans, Mrs. Gaines is now at lib erty to institute actions of ejectment against tliose now in possession, but it is said she is disposed to make reasonable and liberal com . promises w ith the occupants or owners. We are gratified, pays the Savannah RrpnL lican, to hear from the Tnmr-a Peninsular of the 5th inst., that Lieut. Uartsuli'is not dead, but had returned to Fort Myers wounded, a ball having parsed through his arm and lodged . in the breabt. Lie was doing well. The n.tmes of the four soldiers killed by the Indiar.s are as follows: Ilorth, Foster, Curran and Murtaugh. A large number of balls had perforated thtir heads and chests, they were scalped, and their bodies most shockingly mutilated. The Great Inner Sea of Africa, tw'ro as large as the L!ack Sea, including Az off, the txistence of which Cooley, the African geogra pher, argued for long ago, and the discovery of which has been previously ann xjm ed, has been further verified by explorations; but the sea is not so remarkable as the people in its neighborhood, who are said to rend and write, have no idols, are generally serious, solid, sen sible people, and profess to believe iu God, and have no tincture of Mahotnedanism. From whom did they learn these things, or is il a traveller' etory f The wealth concentrated at the great com mercial points of the United States is truly astonishing. For instance, one eighth part of the entire property of this country is owned by the citizens of New York and Boston. Boston alone in its corporate limits owns one twentieth the property on this entire Uuion, being an amount equal to the wealth of any three of the New England States, except Mas sachusetts. Iu this city is found the richest community per capita, of any iu the United States. The next city in point of wealth, ac cording to its population, is Providence, li. I., which city is one of the richest in the Union, having a valuation of fitly-sii millions w ith a population of fifty thousand. At a recent Convention of colored men held at Sacramento, the total colored Herniation ot California was estimated at 4,915, with an ag gregate wealth of $2,375,000. Queen Victoria has given her official sanc tion to the prohibitory liquor law of the pro vince of New Brunswick, and directs the Governor or Commander in chief, and all other persons whom it uisy concern, to he governed thereby accordingly. The law took tiled on the fiiit of Jsuuary. The Hochesier Trilunt says the cist of wheat now held by mideis iu that city, (iu tore and in transit,) is over $1,000,000, and that the profit of the milhtg business for t.'ie past .awuon already exceed $300,000.

There is no time to One ; and we would earnestly impress upon he masses all over the State the impor rance of immediate action. Go to work at once, and let us have an enthusiastic meeting, such as the conservative inas.ses of Tennesssee have been accustomed to in times past. The Candidate!, for SocaUcrUen. Zol licoffer' IiHerrog-atorir. We spread before the readers of the Patriot this morning the replies of Mr. IiiciURosox, the Democratic, and Mr. Ful ler, the American candidate for Speaker, to the interrogatories propounded to them by Gen. Zollicokfer. We have deemed it unimportant, for the present at least, to republish the replies of Messrs. Banks and Pen'nington', as the former is beyond ques tion a sectional candidate, and the latter gets but a few scattering votes. We copy the reply of Mr. Riciiaudsox from the Na tional Intdligemer, that of Mr. Fcixer from the Congressional Globe. We have barely room to-day to call at tention to the important fact that Mr. Rich ardson believes the Wilmot proviso consti tutional, and holds other opinions inimical to the rights of slave-holders in the terri tories of the United States ; whilst Mr Fuller shows himself to be a national man, in whom the strictest Southern Rights slave-holder can confide ; and that, notwith standing the dark spots upou Mr. Rich ardson's record, the democratic members, whilst professing nationality, continue to support him. A New I'have of Proscription. The Union and American is "happy" in announcing that the parent Roard of the Rank of Tennessee have determined- to manifest an ineffably mean and malignant spirit of proscription in the selection of Boards for the Branches of that institution. It gloats with unmistakeable and heartfelt gusto over this morceau so well suited to its palate. A grin of almost savage satis faction is stamped upon its countenance as it unblushingly records this incomparably the smallest of all the acts of the party of which it is prond to be the organ. Yet while thanking the parent Board for having adopted this resolution, it takes them to task for having in one instauce relaxed the rule and appointed one of these villainous Know-Nothings a director in the Branch at Columbia. It tells them they have ut terly disregarded the wishes of the people of Maury by so doing. It tells them that Democrats will not and should not approve conduct 60 outrageously un-democratic. We are surprised that the democratic ma jority iu the parent Board are so ignorant of the commonest precepts of their party. Appoint a political opponent to office ! Why what were they thinking about ? What penance can they do to re-instate themselves in confidence after so Cagrant a breach of party discipline. We advise them as they value their own standing and the good opinion of their party never again to permit a sin so heinous to be laid at their door. Another such misstep and they may have to answer the waked np wrath of that rigid disciplinarian ami ran corous partisan who gore them the power thus to throw away office upon "traitors'' and midnight '"thieves." Let them not think that he is so ignorant of what demo crats require of their servants as they have shown themselves to be. The chiding whii h the organ gives them is most oppor tune. Let them profit by it. But what will the common sense and com mon decency of the world think of a party who can be guilty of such acts of ruthless proscription, and without a blnsh blazon them to the world as commendable, and yet fill its newspapers with unstinted abuse and denunciation of the opposite party, charging proscription as their gravest sin ? Can any man with a spark of political hon esty iu his composition entertain respect for a party who proclaim certain conduct base in their opponents, aud yet in the face of this, excuse aye even endorse heartily the Kamo conduct in members of their own party ? That man is indeed low who can consent to glorify his own baseness, who can boast of nn act for which he denounces another. All kinds of meanness is con temptible, and political meanness can as well inspire disgust as any other kind. It has been a long time since we have met with an article which contains more of this spirit than that iu which our neighbor re. cords his endorsement of this most tyrant:'. c:il abuse of appointing power. We un hesitatingly pronounce it the grossest out rage which an intolerant ami dorniueering majority has ever perpetrated in this State. The American party have no right to ex pect in the distribution of political offices a shadow of favor at the hands of their oppo nents. But uutil this monstrous move oa the part of the majority of the parent Board of the State Bank it was never dreamed that the management of a great money institution erected by the whole peo ple of Tennessee for the benefit of the while should be committed to the fcole and exclusive charge of the political party who hapjK-ned to be in power. It remained for this immaculate Democratic party, w hose lou j and bitter dcuuututiouji of proscrip tion during the I a ft canvass ure yet echo ing through the hills tia j valleys of Ten nessee, to inaugurate the practice of pro scribing their ft'Ilow-citizeus la portly busi ness transactions on account of their politi cal opinions. If we recollect aright it was this.Muia purtr weo were so horrified .at what they called the "social feature fu the obligations of the Atuericun order.- The charged that Americans werev bound to cease all social intercourse with those who did not belong to the order, and upon this text their orators Wasted (or rather expen ded, for any use of guch breath could hard ly be called waste) a vast amount of breath They drew frightful pictures of family quarrels, and domestic disturbances which snch a course would induce, yet be it remembered this charge was unfounded and slanderous, and only made to subserve par ty ends., But in this action of the parent Board we see a principle equally as bad, and fully as deserving of severe condemna tion, lauded as right and proper and en dorsed as just what democrats demand and expect from those whom they invest with the distribution of office We have a question to propound. Does the Board by this action mean to say that because a man is a "Know-Nothing" he is dishonest, and in their judgment an unsafe depository of a trust involving the control of money ? We cannot think so. We are at a loss for a motive to which to attribute this course. Our confidence in human na ture is not yet so sadly shaken as to make us ready to charge it as an attempt to get a great money lever in their hands in order to make use of it for party purposes. We shrink from and repel such a thought. We will not entertain it. But an explanation of this thing is due to those proscribed, and if this system is carried out in every Branch in the State there will be those who will continue to think that committees of the next Legislature will be compelled to demand explanations from the proscri bes also. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Fatckday, Jakcart 12, 1S."C. Mr. liicnARDFON, of Illinois, then pent to the Clerk's kk the question that had been propound ed to him by Mr. Zollicoflvr, and requested that the first interrogatory be read; aud was according' ly read, as follows: "Ain I ripht iu supposing that the pentleman from Illinois (Mr. Richardfon) regards the Kanoju Xebrafka bill as promotive of the formation of free States in the Territories of Kansas and Nebraska?" Mr. Richardson. In reply to the question of the gentleman from Tennessee, (Mr. Zoiiicoffer.) I have to Fay I voted for th bills organizing the Ter ritories of Nebraska and Kannas because I thought them juH to all, and I defended that vote belore my constituents upon that ground. I intended then, and I intend now, that the people who go there, or who have gone there, shall decide the question of slavery for themselves, and so far as I could, to admit them as Stes, with or without slaverv, as the people should leeide. In common with North ern and Southern gentlemen, I have said that, in my opinion, slavery would never go there; but I have never here or elsewhere, urped that as a rea son why I voted for that bill. I voted for the bill because it was just, right, and proper, and wanted nothing more to defend myself. I repeat here un argument I have made over and over agnin before my constituents, and it is this: if a Majority of the people of Kunsas or Nebraska are in fnvor of sil very, they will have it; if a majority areoppo?edto if, then they will not Lave it. This is the practic I result of every theory advocated by the friends of the Nebraska and Kansas bill. I guve my sanction to this principle in supporting the Territorial lulls of 1850, and have unilormly supported the same principles fince, whenever presented for my action, and shall continue to do so in all furture cases that may aiie. It is a principle lying at the foundation of all popular Governments that the people of each separate or distinct community shall decide for themselves the nature and character of the institu. tions under which they shall live: and by this prin ciple I am prepared tolive and die. I theiefore voted for the Nebraska and Kansas bill neither as a pro slavery nor anti -slavery measure, but as a measure of equal rght and justice to the people of all sec tions of, our common country. Will the Clerk now read the next question ? "Am I right iu supposing that he advocates the constitutionality of the Wilmot proviso ? that in 1 850 he opposed its application to the territory acquired from Mexico only upon the ground that it was Hitnecetsnry, inasmuch as the Mexican local laws in tliose Territories already abulinhed tlavery, which ought to be surflk-ient for all Freesoil men? and that he committed himself to the position that if Territorial bills silent upon thesulject of slavery (and leaving the Mexican laws to operate) where de feated, be would vote fur bills with ilia Wilmot pioviso in them?'' Mr. Richardson. This question requires a more extended reply. In lSt'3 we acquired Louisiana; it was a slave territory. In 18"J9 we dirided, by line of 80 dt g. SO uiin., that terrtitorj: north of the line it was to be free. In 1S45 we annexed Texas; that was slave territory; we divided that by exten ding the line of 30 dog. 20 uiin. through that; north to be free. In 1818 we acquired territory from Mexico; that was tree. I voted repeatedly to extend tim same line west to the Pacific ocean. I voted for that line with a lew Representatives from the North, and the whole body of Southern Re pre sentatives. Wheu I cave those votes I did not believe then, nor do I believe now that I violated the Constitution of the United States. If you have power under the Constitution to exclude slavery from half of a Territory, I think you have power to exclude from all, through turn an exer cise would be ui just and wrong. I have uever, therefore, voted to exercise thut power, upon the pineiple of ccuiipronne. In this connexion I desire to rend tiinn a speech of mine delivered in this ball April 3, 1850, and nuke a word or two of com ment upon iu "T ere is I regret to sit, a willingness upon the part of thrt democruts of the North to ee this pro viso pat-sed, that Gen, Taylor may be compelled to show to the world and 'the rest of mankind' who was cheated in tiie last Presidential election whether il was his friends North or South. Tney know that a fraud was practised upon the one or the other. They know that in the South Gen. Taylor was represented as all that any one in favor of slaveay extension could desire; that be was bound to Southern institutions by two hundred bonds. At the North it waa (aid that he was for confining slavery to its present limits. One or the other was cheated, but I submit to my Northen friends if the peace and harmony of twenty millions of people, ami the perpetuity of our free iustitu lions, aie not of more importance than the expos ure of this bad faith upon the part of an Admiuis tratiou that, if let alone, will fall by its own weight? The public voice every where indicates iu cerUiu aud inevitable overthrow. 'In times past our policy sooner or latter has prevailed, and we should stand firm, however daik the hour, encouraged by former success. We should not be driven lioui our poniuons becau-e our opon ueuU have to coma to tuera for salety. I mi-ht utk ihein if they are to be driven from their firm and stem opposition to a Uuited Suites Dank because ihce who ones thought that o ruin ruia would lay waste ihe land unless such an institution was incoi poiated have changed tin ir opinions and hUnJ witn us in opposition Ari they willing to be drireu iu opposition to the independent treasury becausu (hose ho once opposed now support il ?

We hhouli never survive the existence of this Government. "There is one thing that I wiih, in this connex ion, Mr. Chuinuan. to cay to the c.-n Icmeo Irorn the Soa.h ai d the Northern WLIs: If the bill for Territorial Governments, silent upou the subject of slavery, shall be defeated, tbco 1 am for bill wita the WiliuotprovUo, to order to give Governments to the people iu lbs Territories; and 1 sprak for lour of toy colleagues, assured that tney will Irei constrained to pun-ue a like course. And if Gen cral Taylor bail approve the proio, tUcu il will lave panned; aud it is for them to determine what shall or t.a;l tot be done, and K I the responsibility rest with itnin. 1 lake tail occasion to say that the seoiimenl U-t quoted, uttered in a moment of ticitenin.t, I, upon feiJoction, repudiate as uiju&t and improper. I ibabk m ciiUriuan that tin has affoJ J uie the opportunity to give this publie eiprrien of my d.rapprovl of that statement.

" - " Mr. Richaedsox. .The constitution does not, in my opinion, carry the institutions of any of the States into ihe Territories; but it affords the same protection there to the institutions of one State as of ano her The citizen of Virginia is as much entitled io the common territory to the protection of bis property under the Constitution as the citizen of Illinois; Jbnt both are dependent upon the k-iia tioa of the Terirtorial Government for laws to pro tect their property, of whatever kind it niy be. Thus it will be Been that, though there may be upon this point a difference theoretically, involv ing questions for judicial decision, yet there is none practically anions the friends of non -intervention by Congress, as the practical result is to place tiie deci.-ion of the questions in the hands of ihose who are most deeply interested in its solution, namely, the people of the Territory who have made it their home, and whose interests are the most deeply in volved in the character of the institutions under which they are to live. If this great principle of non intervention and self government is wrong then indeed the American revoiutiou was fought in vain, and it is time we ceae to venerate the memory ot the patriotic dead,whopurhastd with their fortunes and blood the free institntions of the separate, independent, and coequal States forming the IT-ino under which we have so prosperously aud happiiy grown to be so great. Mr. Zollicoiter, of Tennessee, by way of show ing that he had made no idle interrogatories, but that they were based upon the record, rcterreJ to page 424 of the Appeniiix to the Congressional Globe for 1850, from which Mr. Richaruson had read, and desired to read other jjoi tions of the speech of Mr. K. as therein recorded. lie was, however, ii.tenupted by Mr. Clikgmam, of North Carolina, who objected, stating that the House was acting under a resolu tion requiiins candidates to answer ceitain interro gatories. They had been propounded to and answered by one of the candidates, and he thought it was but juit and fair that the others should answer belore a general debate should commence. The following sentiments expressed by Mr. Richardson iu 1850, iu the saiu speech from which he read the luregoing extracts, are to be found at the page of the Congressional Globe allu ded to, and appear to be those upou which some poitiou of the interrogatories of Mr. Zollicofkis.r were based : "I have sought in vain to hear some reason for the passage of the Wilmot proviso. There is a necessity to abol.sh or prohibit slavery iu Teirito lies wherfc it exists. With this view the ordinance ol 1787 was passed. It had application to territory where slavery did exi.-t by operation of the laws of Virginia, to which the Noith western Territory be longed. The Missouri compromise aiso abolished slavery north of 36 3o That compromise was passed, i ot to keep the territory lice north of that latitude, but because the laws of Louisiana, when we acquired it, recognised slavery, and cairied it, consequently, unless repealed, to all the Territory. But I maintain, sir, that slavery is the creature ot of municipal kw, aud does not and cannot exist one moment without it. If territory is free there is no neees-ity to pass any law; it will remain so. "The people of the non slavcholding States be lieve that tiie territory we acquired from Mexico by the treaty of peace brought with it laws not incon sistent with our Constitution, and that these laws excluded slavery. If there is any Representative from t ic nin slaTeholdiug States that denies either of these propositions, I ask him to rise in his place and say so. There are none who cau or dare deny it. "This is a universal sentiment at the North, and I might refer to all the speeches that have been made at this session of Congress aud the last to show that every one from the non slavcholding States, Freesoilers and all, hold that the Territoiies are now free. If this is true, what more can you do? They are free now, and will ever remain so; thev are free by the law of nations, they are free by the laws of nature; they will remain free, trom causes to which I have ulready referred, forever. Tnis should satisfy all, in my judgment, who are opposed to the extension of slavery. The position is so unanswerable that the distinguished Senator from Kentucky (Mr. Clay) says it is 'incontestable truth.' "Why, then, I ask is thi proviso urged with so much zeal and pertiuacity? It can do no possible good, and its passage may disturb the harmonious relations of the people of this Confederacy, and overthrow the proudest fabric that God has ever permitted man to erect. 'The Representatives from the slaveholding States maiuUiiu that wherever our flag floats over teiritory of the United States, and not within t'ue limits of a sovereign State, the Constitution carries and protects slavery. If this is true, any law passed by Congress impairing a right thus secured is null and void, and the pooviso, agitated or passed, is poweiless and harmless. 1 hear gentlemen, alter urging this constitutional right, with astoni.-hmeut declare that they and their constituents are out raged aud wronged by this invasion from the North. It this right exists by the Constitution, it will be as valid alter the passage of the Wilmot proviso, or any other proviso, as it is now or ever was. Hut they say the people of the South will be deterred from goiiig with tneir slaves to the Territoiies by the passage by Congress of the proviso. One of to inferences is irresistible: they are satislied thia constitutional guarantee does not exist, or the peo ple are not desirous of. going into the Territories with theii slaves. "I do not and cannot believe that our Constitu tion carries and protects slavery, except iu States, nor do I believe that its fiamers intended that it should extend this institution. I believe it was formed for far higher and nobler purposes. It was formed to preserve forever a union ol these States, and to guard and protect each and every citiz-u whose lot might be cast iu it in his person and property nd conscience. - "I believe Congress has full power to pass such laws as they may think proper for the government cl the Territories. There is, cont-cqueutly, no cou btitutional dillieulties in my road."J Mr. 1'cLLtn, of Pennsylvania. Mr. Clerk, I voted for the resolution offered by the gentleman from Tennessee (Mr. Zollicofier,) yesterday, because I cordially approve ol the principle embo died in that resolution. Earlv in the session I felt il a duly, in ju-itice to myself aud to those with whom I had oeen acting, to declare the opinions I entertained and the course of action I hou!d pur sue upou certain questions of public policy. I de.-ire to say now, sir, what I believe is known to tl.e majority if not to all of those who have honored mo with t'. ir confidence, that I have been ready at any and a I times lo withdraw my name from this protracted canvass. I have felt unwilling to stand, or to apprar to stand, in the way of any lair organ:" zatiou oi this body. In answer to the specific interrogatories here presented, I say that I do not regard the Kansas and Nebraska bill z. promotive of the formation of free States ; and I will further say, sir, that I do not believe that it is promotive of the formation of clave States. Cries of "Good I"' The eecotid interro gatory relates to the constitutionality tf the Wilmot proviso. I was not a member of the Congress of 1S50, and have never been called upon to attirui or d'Miy the con-tiiutionality of the Wilmot proviso. I have never assumed the position, that "if ter ritoiial bills (silent upon the subject of slavery, and leaving the Mexican laws to operate) were de feated, he 11 would vote for a bill wiihtiie Wilui it proviso in it." That question relates to the legis lative action of the distinguished gentleman liom Ii.'inois, M r. Ricuoisov J My political existence commenced since that Hood. Laughter. I was not a member of that Congress, and having never taken any public position upon that sutject hereto fore, I am willing, in all frankness and c in lor, to do so now; siid I do so with great deference and respect for those distinguished men wno in ti.es past have entertained and expressed dillerent opin ions. Public history iutortnsua thai slavery existed te'ore the Constitution, aud, in my ja lemeuf, now exists independent of the Contituioiu When the people of the confederated States n.et, by thi ir representatives, in convection, lo forru that Constitution, slavery n.sled in all but one of the States of the CoufeJracv.

Its legislation and administration should be con trolled by the Constitution ; and it cannot justly employ its powers thas delegated to impair or de stroy any existing or vested rights belonging to the people of any of the States. ' Mr. Barksdale, of Mississippi, submitted the following interrogatories, stating that he expected each candidate to answer them : " 1. Are you now a member of the American or Know Nothing party? "2. Are you in favor of abolishing slavery in the District of Columbia and iu me United States dock yards, ic. ? " 3. Do you believe in the equality of the blick and white races in the United States, and do yoa wish to promote lhattqudity by legislation? "4. Are you in favor of the entire exclusion of adopted citizens and (toman Catr-olirs from office? "5. Do you favor the same modifications of lh tariff new that vou did at the last ses.-:on of Cm gress?" , Mr. Ri0HARn-ON ha f examined tha inquiries pro pounded by the gentleman frotn Ohio, (Mr. Bi;a HAM,) and thought that he had answere 1 all of them substantially, with the exception of the hrs,l and fifth. Iu reply to the first question; ho would state that in li opinion lis e Constitution of the United Stales did extend over the Territoiies, so far as it wasap plicable to their condition. Io reply to the Cfth question, be had to soy that by the express terms of the bills organizing the Territories that had been established bubseqiieiilly to the passage of the fugitive slave (aw, that law was in operation in such Ten iiorica. As to the inquiries of tht ijentleman frotn Mis sissippi, (Mr. iiAKKSDALK,) he would state that he belonged to no AiiK'iicau or Know Xotliing pirty, nor to any secret politieal organization. lie was opposed to tin; abolition of, or mtei f.-reuce with slavery in tiie District of Columbia, and to any in terterence with it by Congress iu the dock yards or any other place, lie believed that the Almighty had made the negro inferior to the white man, and he did no', think that they could be placed on an -equality unless the wi ite should be dragged tion j to a level with the other. i la answer to ti e jocular questions of his friend from Mi.-souii, (Mr. Kknnett.) he must eoiif-s-that he sometimes feared that iu that future stale, in which he believed, he and some of his associates woul not be free. Laughter. Mr. Kensett was glad to hear that bis friend was a little anxious about his own condition as well as that of other members of the House, and thought he had great cause. Laughter. Mr. Richardson was not only anxious ebout him self, but his friends. Laughter He bad over looked one ot the questions of the gentleman from Mississippi that iu relation to Catholics and for eigners. He did not dre what a man's religious opinions might be. He would as soon suppoit a Catholic for nlKce as a member of any other denom ination, provided he was qualified for the place and his political sentiments coi responded with his own. He thought that the only safety in a Government like ours was to keep religion out of politics, and that we should never cany our reli Jou to the polls or our politics to church. Mr. ltiNoii am, of (Jliio, deeired to know whether the gentleman bum Illinois had alSrmed or dene d the right of the people of the Territories to make a.iy law depriving any person therein of life or lib erty, "except as punishment for crime upou due convict on "' Mr. Rich a rj son desired to conceal nothing. He had, in tiie remarks he ha i submittt d liiis morning, exprensed the belief that tlie people of the Terri tories of Kansas and Nebraska l ad the light ci her to establish or prohibit African slaven Mr. JJinuiiam insisted on an answer to Ins inter rogatory. Mr. Cobb, of Georgia, said that the aners which had been given by the various candidates to the interrogatories tint had been put to them would goto the country, and the tountiy would ditcr mine windier the questions had been fairly re sporided to. II'- in-isted that the regular course should be pursued. Mr. Dingium wished to know how, if no answer had been given, it could go to the countri? Mr. Conn replied that, if the gentleman from Illi nois haJ declined to answer, the country would s e it. Mr. Ft'U.Kr., of Pennsylvania, remarked that as he was laboring under severe indisposition, he could not pretend to any e!oqu rice on the present occa sion. He would, therefore, answer the questions specifically and diitctlv. Hs replied to the fjrt question, "Are you in favor of restoring thtvMi souri restriction, or do you go lor the entire prohi bition of slavery in all the Territories of the United States?" I am not. t o the second, "Are you iu favor ol abolishing slavery in the District of IVInni bi;i, in the United States forts, dock-yards, &e." I am not. To the third, "Do you believe in the equality of the white and black races iu the United States, and wish to promote that equality by legis lation?" I do not. A 8 to being in favor of the entire exclusion of adopted cit.zcns and Roman embolics from office, he thought, with Gen. Washington, that it would comport best with the policy of this country to appoint nativo born citizens iu preference to luose of foreign birth. Applause in the galleri' S He would proscribe no man because of lis religion, and would denounce no man becanse of his politics, but would a cord to ail th !ar.-it liberty of opinion and of expression, of conscience and of worship. He cared not what religion a man might profess, nor to what denomination he might belong. He he Mahomedati, Jew, or Gentile, he would accord to him the right to wor.-hip according to the dictates of his own judgment. As to fou-ign boYn citizens, he did not. desire to exclude tl.em. He would invite them to co, ne here and enter upon the pubic." land, to occupy the public territory, and to bt ild up for themselves hori es, an 1 teach their children to love the Constitution and laws which protected them; but he would say that in all matters of lcgi!athu and of adiuhiisUation Americans should goveru America. Great applause in tlie Galleries. There being loud cries of "call the roil," the House proceeded to the one hundred and eighth ballot, witii the f. -Mowing result: Mr Rinks, of Mass , . .
