But the Seimto? touches nothing which he does not disfigure—with error, sometimes of principle, sOiaetrhies of fact. He shows an in capacity of accuracy, whether in stating the Constitution or in stating the law ; whether in the details of statistics or the diversions of | scholarship. Tie cannot open his mouth but out there Hies a blunder. Surely he ought to be familiar with the life of Fraidclin ; and vet he referred to this household character, while acting agent of our fathers in England, as above suspicion ; ami this was douc that he might give point to a false contrast with the agent of Kansas—not knowing that, however, they may differ in genius and fame, hi this res pect they are alike ; that Franklin, when in trusted with the petition of Massachusetts Bay, was assaulted by a foul-mouthed speaker, where he could not be heard in defence, and denounced as a " thief,'' even as the agent of Kansas has been assaulted en this floor, and denounced as a " forger." And let not the vanity of the Senator be inspired by the par allel with the British statesmen of that day ; for it is only in hostility to Freedom that any parallel can be recognized. But it is against the people of Kansas that the sensibilities of the Senator are particularly aroused. Com ing, as he announces, "from a State" aye, sir, from South Carolina—he turns with lordly disgust from this newly-found community,which he will not recognize even as " a body poli tic." Pray, sir, by what title does lie indulge in this egotism ? Has he read the history of the State which lie represents? He cannot! surely have forgotten its shameful imbecility 1 from slavery, confessed throughout the Revo- i lotion, followed by its more shameful assump tions for slavery since. lie cannot have for-I gotten its wretched persistence in the slave ! trade as the very apple of its eye, and the con- , dition of its participation in the Union. He j cannot have forgotten its Constitution, which 1 is republican oniy in name, confirming power j in the hands of the few, and founding the qual ifications of voters on " a settled freehold es- 1 tate and ten negroes." And yet the Senator to whom that "State" has in part committed the guardianship of its good name, instead of ! moving with backward treading steps, to co- ! ver its nakedness, rushes forward in the very ecstaey of madness, to expose it by provoking a comparison with Kansas. South Caroiina is old ; Kansas is young. South Carolina! counties by centuries where Kansas counts bv years." RI FFIAN'ISM IN* WATIUNGTON.—A desjiatcli from Washington gives an account of a ruffian ly and cowardly assault ujion Senator Sum ner, in the Senate chamber, yesterday. At the close of the p < ce din rs of the Senate, Mr. Brooks, of South Carolina, went 1 up to Mr. Sumner, and first knocked him down with a cane, and then continued to heat him till he was insensible. The motive for this brutal violence was to punish Mr. Sumner for his re marks in the Senate, the day previous, in re ply to Mr. Butler, in which Mr. S indulged in considerable severity of language. Mr. Brooks is a relative of Mr. Butler, aud took this unjustifiable and cowardly way of vindi cating that gentleman's honor. Iu England, where the Parliamentary privilege is greater than here, and guarded bv special enactments, such a gross violation of law and the sancti ties of a legislator would be punished prompt ly by I'arliHiuetifc as a breach of its privileges, without the perpetrator being handed over to tlie criminal court. In this country, where the Constitution guards fiie inviolability of the citizen, the legislative privilege, in practice at least, is more restricted. Congress very rare !y—in bat three instances, we believe, in its history—having undertaken to punish breach es of its privilege. It has preferred to ban I the offender over to the courts of law, where the character of the offence and the extent of the penalty are both well defined, though the power to provide for an umli-turbed exercise of its functions nndonbedfy stili remains with Congress. If this assault upon Mr. Sunnier is not a breach of privilege, it certainly is a flagrant outrage of more than ordinary turpi tude, for it is not only a cruel personal as sault, but it is an act. tlie ten e cy of wlich is to restrict the freedom of debate in our Na tional Councils, to interfere with the repre sentative iu the discharge of his duties to his constituents, ami, therefore, endanger and impairing the functions of the lcgislature.- Tlie Senate, therefore, owes a duty to itself to see that the offender is handed over to the Grand Jury for indictment and trial ; and if the House consult its own dignity, and has a proper regard to the protection due a legisla tor, it will expel Mr. Brooks from his seat in that body, for we presume tire offender is the member of that name from South Carolina. — In all the e.xpi rieitee of ruffianism in Congress, we have never heard of a more wanton, brutal and unmanly act, than that attributed to Mr. Brooks. — Led tier.
