First, n The Leisure Mo• monis of Miss Martha Ilaines Batt, A. Ei.," ph. lisbeel by B. D. Long, New York, who also sends a couple of columns of bigh•poppered praise, from "the editorial fraternity and others, after perusing advance sheets of this work." These million aro all taken from New York papers, and give us the poorest opinion of Now 'Yolk oritioinua. One oritio SAO: WhO Mine Butt in, and by what means she hes endeared herself to the American people, wo need not now repeat; suffice it that alto is a grant favorito, and is fully deserving of that 'mitten." Another, desoribing bliss Butt as the well.known and accomplished literary belle of Norfolk, Ara., says "The volume has been issued under the supervision of the authoress herself, and reflects, an only a woman's writings can, the piCturesque con• trusts, the brilliant light and touching shades of the world in which the writer has mowed, admiring and admired." A third declares that the young lady "is very favorably known in this country for bar talent, her writings, and tbo soiontifle degree Mistress of Arta) conferred not long ego by the eollego of Harrisburg, Pa." A fourth, arriving at a grand climax, says that the book "me in the world of literature what the belt of Orion to in the heavens." We confess that we were wholly ignorant of bliss Butt's writings and reputation until we rend them highly-seasoned eulogies. Turning to Alllbone, our usual resort when small-unknowns are named, we find that Miss Butt, born In 1834, had previous ly published a .Antl-Fanatielem ; a tale of the tionth." The contents of her new book, the object of the abortequoted praise, nrostories, rhymes, anti a few weak imitations of Fanny Fern. Their quality Is of the namby-pamby order—so feeble and BO wordy that lit 0 doubt whether Peterson or Godey would publish them, in their magazines, oven if contributed gratuitously. Barely such " fugitive pieces," as Ziiss Butt calls them, should have remained fugacious. 'lltere is a poetical dedication, to a very estimable young lady, and the tint atunra above what pretty grammar thin :Mistress of Arts uses : Fair one, thine eyes of deepest Woe Dort fill my noel with rapture great ; They speak a silent language, too, 1 he innate dont my no ul elate. The plural nominative eye., to the eingular verb cloth is more original than proper. The hist &tame of this dedication rune thus : Who would not court the heavenly The him thy gentle charms impert. Oh wore I only sure or We, Would mute the throbhinso °cm, henrt. Sure of what? Thoro is sound, not Rowe herr, and the sentiment, poorly exproesed es it is, is ut terly extravagant when applied by one young 00- man to another. Finally taking leave of Miss Butte "Leisure Moments," wo must deolaro that the book 1.1 not, "in the world of litoreturo, what the bolt of Orion le in the heavens," Very different in quality and manner is a volume called "!tits at American Whims and flints for llama Liao," written by Frederick W. liawyer, author et "A Non for Amusemouts," just pub• lished at Boston. A groat Immber of subjects— literary, sooial, dramatic, foreign, domestic, philo sophical, and so on—aro hero discussed with spirit, freedom, and fall knowledge of what tho author writes, about, and we hive not mot with a more readable volume for some time Mr. Fstwyer writes excellent English, and his satirical vein romiada us of Thackeray's, °leapt that It Id not at all 11l natured. Who book reminds us, of another which we reviewed last year, '"Xhe Vagabond," by Adam Baden% • Dr, Smiles, author of the Life of George Ste phentiou, the Father of Railwayistn, lately pub. tithed a very interesting volume . , an the plan of " Pursuit of Knowledge Under Difficulties," which has beau republished by Ticknor ,tFieldp, of liof. ton, and harper b Brothers, of Now York. The farmer house bring out an author's edition. We do not take part In publishers' dispute., but are glad that, in this ease, competition snakes a good book cheep. This "Solt Detn-it br Dr. Settles should tre in the Imotts=in the mind—ef every young American. It chews bow, all &or' the world, truly great men have been—industry, tact, temperance, perseverance, and character being the steps of the ladder. There Is also a capital Index liforphyte Chess-Games, with Analytical and Critical Notes by J. Lowenthal, yublisbcd by Ap. platens of New York, (and very beautifully printed it is,) we recommend to all Cheaa•Playora. It con.

In tho account with the Delaware Rsilroad, that road is ohorgod with the expense of operating, and oreditod with the proportion of earnings due to it. The proportion of the earnings due to thb Philadelphia, ,Wilmingtoe, and Baltimore Rail road is addedAllreelly to our own revenue. In order, therefore, to understand' the relation of the Delaware Railroad to our own road, tho following explanations tqf hocessarf During the °Won month! ending Ootobar 81st, 1850, the Delaware Rai/road has increased the re.

Wo„think tall those who road the following ' will adinit that Judge poroLts has put Ids Southern opponents very close to the wall. It seems that tie, moment Judge DoroL.ts ap peared in the discussion ho Wan attacked in detail by nearly all the disuolonleta. Flow ho met them, lot the report of the Globe of Friday answer, as follows : • Mr. Guava. I *aid that when that. remark was first made, I . regarded it as a mere sodden:al ex. preasion, in the ardor of debate. I never said that he (Mr. Douglas) was removed from his posi tion as chairman of the Committee On Territories in consequeneo of it—never. Others may have said so. I was opposed to hie removal; and if it can restore harmony and unity in the Democratic party, I am willing to resign my place to-day. not only as chairman of that committee, but as a mem ber of the American Senate. The good of the Amulets's) Union is superior to my position either as a Senator or chairman of a committee. But the Senator from Illinois repeated that declaration in seizral speeches, at Memphis, at Nees Orteane, and Miler places, is his triumphal march to the Capitol. I do not know, but .I. suppose it was in consequence of those repeated remarks that it was taken se a settled opinion rather than as a mere accidental expression.. Mr. Doroeaa. Does the gentleman mean that that remark kayo um a triumphal march in all the slaveholdipg bless where 1 reputed It? Mr. Oahu. I certainly do nut ; but that the Senator in his triumphal march repeated the tame thing. Then, however, ha said always that the cad was to be accomplished by unfriendly legislation, by indirect means, never lay a direct Territorial prohibitory act. • Mr. Donotas. I will simply state that at Free port, in reply to a question, I did say that slavery might be excluded trout a Territory by son-notice, and also by unfriendly legislation. I have made the same remark in the Satiate over and Over again, in 11350, and Sarin every evasion of Congress from that time to the period when I. was removed from the ohairmanship of the Committee on Territories livery member of the donate during . that whole pe riod la//057 that I held those sosituuents. I had been eleven times appointed cb.atrmau of the Com mittee on Territories, by the unanimous vete of this body, after 1 bad repeated those remarks over and over again. If gentlemen desire to make an issue en this Tutus, I will show the feet from the record. • vs is a. lair. One ea. I remarked yesterday, that after the Died ftoott deI:NOD, no wall had ever uate,eu ai.. ocrt/t nucnc aniadva^.r, ref.. as r ktww until the Senator from Illiuots expressed it.

After It was decided that Congress Lad not this power, thou, fur the first time, the Bonnier from Illinois raiecol the question, unfortunately—l regret fur hie sake and for my owe, and (Cr the Coke of the country—that a Territory oeuld do it in deskite of Congress, without any derivation of power Irma Cotivess; and lee elate is revues:lde for it.

I did knew him to advocate the doctrine of sovereignty in the Territorial inhabitants--the power to do what they pleased, I .hink, was ob3ut the extent of file doctrine. I did not concur with him ; I opposed that doctrine. .51r. Doan Las. I mutt correct the Senator. I never claimed for a Territory the power to do any thing inagnsi3tent with the Coartitution of the United States. Mr. DAVIS. Oh! a State cannot do that. So• vereignty, as it is understood in oar Uoverntuent ; sovereignty, as it Cline?, under the Constitution, in the 'States : that It what you clahnoa for them. The Senator's opinion, I think, trent to that oz tent. Ile went beyond the venerable Senator from ftt(Algae, now the Secretary of State; and I re collect once, in discussion between the Senator from Michigan and revolt; the Senator from Illi nois thought be foll so far below the true standard of splatter sovereignty that ho had to take him to account, I, therefore, certainly was aware that the Senator at that period entertained the doc trine of spatter sovereignty in all its length and breadth—equatter sovereignty as we understand it; the Senator may have another name. Mr. Docomts.. I do not wish to engago in a controversy with the Senator from Illissisaippi while the Senator from Ohio holds the floor, and has not finished his speech. I apologized a mo ment ago for having done something of the kind. I will merely say that I certainly stall, from the record, controvert the Senator's recollection of our relative positions at that time ; and I will say, fur thermore, that he Id mistaken in the position be assigns me then, although I then held precisely the opinions I do now. Mr. D tvto. I believe the Senator then did hold CID Op/Liana be decd now; but I think there was an intermediate period when ho was more sound. I think, about the poled of the enactment of the Kansas-Nebraska law, the Senator woe mere sound than he either Is now or was in 1530. Mr. Docutots. When the time comes for dis missing it, I will show that at that period, on the very mght the Kanszts•Nobraska bill was passed, I stated that the role object of the repeal of the :therein t rett triton war, that the people of the Territory might introduce or exclude slareey through. the Territortal Legislature while a Tr, , t tory; as tee!! as after they hceante a State; and no man who heard me then ran hare as excuse, far ant .1 'towing that held the Ter11(01 LeA , srlatare, ere the Tel t trot tag eapaett y, conid tto it. The record in tile Weld will sustain me. Mt. Davis. .1 do not doubt the Senator's RCM' I rate recollection of what he said on that occasion. I had not the honor to hear bird. As be to aware, I I way not then a member of the Senate. Mr. Doutiosa. Its the Senator did not bear me, "hope ho will not expre.m an opinion on my sound corn At a time when he did nut know what my opinions were. MR, DAVI:I. I exprima no opinion on that speech of the Senator; but I think the Senator's soundness may he inferred froth the general language of the bill itself. The language ol the bill ahem that the, s aat itcr had somewhat changed his views as enter- I Mined by Wm in 1850. I merely thought It neces sary to say this., in order that I might not, with others, be put in the category as having endorsed the Senator through a long period, holding a Cer tain opinion which was subsequently objectionable; for, unlike the Senator from Missouri, I am among them, who do not regret that the Senator from Illt noia was not continued at the head of the Com mittee on Territories. I thought it eminently proper, when he differed from the majority of the Senate upon the Territorial question, when he hold opinions which rendered him unfit to be the organ of that icsjority, th at be should cocoa to he the chairman of that committee; and I have yet to learn front himself that ho would Ithe to hold the position on such terms. Ur. DOIRILAS• I did not know that I held opt nions which were not entertained by the majority. I believe that I bold opinions which aro entertain ed by three-fourths of the Dernocraoy of the nation. 1 believe loan show from the record that a majori ty of the Democracy of the Serrate , at that time, understood the Kansar•Nebraska bill as I then did and now do. lem prepared to show from the re• cord, also that a difference of opinion en that ques tion was considered no cause of discrimination in the formation ofsommittoes 1 will show you, too, that in the Rouse of Representatives, after the ]Canape-Nobraska bill was passed, the question wan put to Colonel Richardson, as the Democratic DO txtinco for Speaker, whether he thought a 'territo rial Loginatuyo could exclude slavery;by A Taunt-- nal enactment during its Territorial existence, and Ile answered in writing; and after that a»s?t , t) every Souther n lamina hut the re voted for Mc,. as sound on the Territorial 'lineation. Mr. D.tvls, Ido not Know what the Senator may he able Os prove froze the record; but I stand upon the position which I have just assumed, that the Senator's opinion upon the power of a Territo rial Legislature VAS doomed a sueident cause by the Democracy for not continuing him in the pen eon of chairman of the Committee on Territories There must have been, then, a majority of the De mocratio Senators who did not concur with him. If that he co—ami It appears to be so on the face of it 4'501 90 43 75 215.18 !TER mines TWO CENTS. —then I say they had a perfect tight to ref's% to continuo him longer as their organ on the Territo rial Committee. I soy It was due to themselves, it was due lo him, and I recollect an eminent ex ample. Mr. Benton, of Aiiieonri, rezigmod the rhstrmenthip of a committee, because be teased to be in concurrence with the majority. Mr. Docor.stl• r have never oomplained of my removal from the ebeifilllththip of the Committee on Tertitories, and I never intended to allude to that subject in this body; but Ido assert that the record proves that the Senate knew for eleven year. that I held the identical opinions which I expressed In my Freeport speech, and which are now alleged as the cause of my removal; and do ting those eleven yearn, with a knowledge of those opinions, which are repeated over and over again in this body, within the hearing of every member of the Senate, I was. by the nnanimoms Tote of the holy, made chairman of that committee. At the end of eleven years I wait removed. and the eeitle ...signed for toy remove! Is that I held the ',hod eel opinions that I bad expressed for the eleven years n hen I woo untmirnously made chairman of the committee. If this be the true state of the feet'', VIM'. 11*1`..3 it prove? That those who removed me charged at the end of the eleven years, and I Wel not " sound" because I did not change as suddenly as they. Illy only offence consists in fidelity to the principles that I bad avowed (or eleven years. I challenge the world to show that I changed a hair's breadth on this question during those eleven years. If, at tbo end of that rime, my opinions were Incompati ble with those of the majority, it shows that the majority had changed their policy, but I had not charged my opinions. Mr. Carew. I was only going to remark that it was distinctly stated by the Senate? from Illinois, in 1553, that whether the Congress had power to prohibit slavery in the Territoriee or not was a ju dicial question; that he left it es a judicial Ties lion ; that be would submit to the adjudisation of the Supreme Court upon it as a judicial decision At that time there was, as I stated yesterday and the day before, and now repeat, a difference of opinion amonp Democrats as to whether Conran could, by le lathe 141, prohibit slavery in the Territories,%wetly or luddrectly, or not; but Ida assert that Rarer, la his whole life, either during the eleven years to which he refers, or the years that bare transpired before be, domain eleven, did the Senator assert, until the, treeport speech, that if Congress had not• the power to abolish slavery. the Territories bad; that a Territory possessed more powbr than Congress, awl wall do what Con gram could not do. When the Bred Seek decidon wee 'rendered, which said Congress had net this power, we supposed the whole question was over, and th at we should be at peace forever. This is all I bare to itay on that question; and this new statement, this restatement of the ease, strikes to with astonishebent, and we all regret ft. hlr. Deceits,. In lssa I did asy It was a judi cial question, and I acid it over and over stain before 18.5 d. I have said is since 1856. I declared In my Illinois speeches that it was &judicial qua& ' don. I have declared the same thime In every publication I have made during the lass _year. I assert now that it is a jrulioial question. The poant is that for many year. it was no want of sound ness le principle that I held one side of that Judi- Ohl question, while others held the oppradt bald and I assert that the Senate did know that I bald one side of the judicial question. But men, I bare always laid that I would slide by the decision of the tie pre MO Court, Slat only as te 113141111 . but from considerations of dut. I take the Is w as expounded by th e court I native tbs Drat Scott decision as an authoritative exposition, but , I deny that the point now under dismission his been decided in the Deed - Sean eat*.

But one word more. I arilertt; aDA be debates will pmt it, that the understanding of the Rex eaa-Nebraska bill was, that thhi was a jadeite question, to 44 decided when lt ; ehoald arise on a Territorial enactment. The speech of the Swathe from Virginia thlr.

Mr. Davis. The Senator refer' to that provision being iniredueod into the Kansas-Nebraska bill. Is he quite correct there? Sir..Uoeot.ne. Certainly. Mr. Ducts.

The Senator will rind that ono pert of the provision was suggested from the other side, and accepted at once on this side, in the Kan sas Nebraska bill, in order to give the courts juris diction of the question. without reference to the value of the negro involved. Soule gentleman on the other side suggested the habeas earpul patt of the clause, and we put in the other; and it was adopted unanimously. Mr. Davis. It was not now. Mr. Doric - m.ls. I think it was new. Mr. Otteni. I think so, too. Mr. Doceuis. I think you still find that it was new. Uf course I are liable to be corrected by the record; but Ido not think I run mistaken. sow, all I have to say is this—and I must apologize again to my friend from Ohio, and I prowbo him I shall give him the floor in a moment—l am reedy, at I hold myself in duty bound, to receive the de cision of the Supreme Court of the United State', in all cases within their jurisdiction, according to the Constitution. as final and nonclusire as to what the law is; but the difference between the Senator from Missouri and in)self is, that I assert that this question never acme But suppose lam raistakeu.

Why cannot you wait for it to come before the court regularly If you are right the court will decide to the Came way that you think they bare already decided It. Ido not believe they will ever decide that way; but why not allow the question to come before the court on a proper case, and allow the argument et it Lot nay friend from Ohio argue the case be. fore the court. * • • • * 4 Orteee. I shall any nothing on what bas been said by the Senator front Ohio and the Senu• for from Illinois until the latter Ares at the lump, as he calls it, and then he will find the proper re arouse. Mr. Douotae. I wish to stay ono word there. I came here with no eapeotatioc of making a speech, unless I should say a few words on the monstrous end wicked outrage that has been perpetrated at Harper's Ferry. These other questions I had dls otteend until I was willing to let them nand on my men record. Anything that I hate to say in the future on them will bo purely in eelf-defence ; but, as .1 saw a disposition, as I thought, to tt double teams" on MO, as they did last year when a debate grew tip, live or six on one; and, as the state of my health does not enable me to take each one to turn, I 'simply said: ttOentlemen, when you get through with your assaults on my record, on my teilltical character, I will reply to yen in general ;" but I have no amaulte to make on any one. Mr. Geese. That is exact/y - 7:oy condition. My health is worse than that of the Senator from Illi nois, for I am hardly able to sit here In my seat through the day; but, if ha fires at the lump, he will bud a Roland for his Olivcr. Mr. D.tvis. The Senator from Illinois certainly has no right to say there Is any disposition here to " double teams" on hint. lle got up and made a st a t e ment which east an arratgnment of every Dernoeratlo Senator as having concurrently sue tsincd him for eleven years in an opinion for which they had finally decapitated him. That certainly was not my position as one of thellemocratio 'Sena tors I chose to reply to him, and very briefly did I reply. The Senator magnifies himself when be supposes that there is any combination to ,bump on him. Why, sir, I tell hum, on this side of the Chamber there are many who are willing to meet him, man to non, at any time. Ile altogether exalts himself above his level when he euppolea there is a comb'. nation here to pre,e him I Was as willing to leave him without assault as be could have been to leave me. its was not in my mind. I was nut busy about him at all, find if he had not interposed in the de leted to make remarks which 'seemed to render it proper, if not necessary, for um to respond, I eer minty should have said nuthiog in relation to him. Aa to firing on the lump, he had better get through wilts one tatter° he takes the lump lie may and that he has enough t o du when he dnishea one man without invoking all the Democracy to stand up together is order that ho may kill them at once. The Senator from Missouri gave him wager of battle. Ido not know that he has ever won such triumphs over that Simmer that be need to invoke EL . ini hody else ii., corns up and aid the Senator from &Damn ; and I certainly estimate the Senator trots Missouri too highly to deem it at all fumes fiery for me to intercede for any snob purpose Mr. Doccitas. The Senator from Mississippi le entitely mistaken when he saps I arraigned any I simply denied the charge preferred against um, that l had changed my position on the Territorial questiou, end cited the fact that the opinions I new hold, as the record proves, bad boon entertained for twelve years. and uttered on this floor every year for eleven years, in the pre fleece of every Senator then preemie, before I was removed from the chair of the Committee on Ter ritories When I assert that feet in pelf-defence, a fa c t th a t eppearaof record. it labelled an arraign ment' I have no arraignment to make.

The remarks of the Senator from Alabama only dhow that I was acting oa the -ight principle in waiting until my arsaiiania get ,hough their hill of indictment, and then replying '0 them in a lump. It seems they are multiplying, f ray to the Rotator from Alabama, that while I aura caught to sympathy and desire to sympathy, i Shrink from no vindication of myself. I leave the public to judge whether there bee not been rather a doubling of teams on me every time I have engaged in debate for the last two years. liter fighting an unholy combination in my own State bctwten Federal offiee-holders and Abolition ists, and triumphing over It, did I come hers at the last union and make any parade of that fact ? No, sir ; I remained silent ; I made no vindication of myself. I wade no complaint of my remoral from the chair of the Committee on Territorief . I 'corer ended to it, and the matter would navy have passed my Spa if ft had not been thrust fate my face in debate here in the Senate to-day, and on previous days. The discussion of last year was brought on by others, and not by me; and yet we have been told by a Senator, while Laskin • speech in the country, that those who rumored me from the bead of that committee expected me to defend myself, and complained that I waited until the and of the IeB3IC.V, after having been tried and condemned and execated in my :bonnet! Sir, I had no defence to make. I scorned to make any defence. I stood conscious of the rectitude of my own motives, and the correctness of my own ac tion. I claimed the right to Noll and riadicate ,ny own opinions, and to impeath no other man's conduct, or the Integrity, of his i urpo:e. I yield to every Senator the right of oiTering from me, and I never make a teat on bun deiug The Senator from Alabama ,4t)3 that I harp sat here and listened to certain opinions without re— plying, and that led him to infer that I eonsurred with them. Mr. Ct.ir. I say opinions were imputed to the Senator which he did not contradict. Mr. DOVGLig. Never, that I know of. Mr. exar. I will prove it whenever the once alert ari.es. - - Mr. Dort:LAS. And I shell reply in the lump when the Senator and others get through. I have hut a word more to say now, wad that If on another point. The Senator from Alabama tells me that if be did not soppose that .1 had charged my opinions, be would never here ex tended to me the right band of fellowship as a De mocrat. Well, sir, Ido not know that my Demo cracy would have euffered mach if he never had. I sin willing to compare - records with him as a De mocrat. I newer make speeches proclaiming to the world that I will bolt a Convention if I eannot get my man nominated, and threatening to break up the Detneeretio party if the little faction to whioh the speaker belongs cannot oontrol it; and then talk about the right band of Democratie fel lowthip` Sir, that hamster buss placed himself beyond the pale of Demoeratio fellowship by tbe pronuncisnalento that he will not abide the decision of the National Convention, if the speeches which I see attributed to him in the newspapers are tree. I do not understand this thing of belonging to an organisation, going Into a convention, abiding the result if you win, and bolting if you lose. I never thought that was deemed fair dealleg in Any pro fession If you took the winnings when ;on gained I always thought you bad to pay your bets when you loot. A man who tells me and the world that he only goes to conventions to abide the result in the event of their deciding in his favor bas ae right to talk shout exteuoing the band of Denis credo fellowship. Now, air, I have the kindest feelings toward/ the gentleman personally. Re has a right to differ from me; be bra a right to bolt the Charleston Convention; he has a right to proclaim to the world beforehand that lee means to do so; but ha hen no right to go into the Convention unless he intends to abide by the result. Ile has no right to el sim to belong to the organization and say that be intends to bolt the nominees; and hence, I say to that Senator, with all kindness, thst, if be does not extend to me the right hand of De.moorelio law-ship, I ehail survive the stroke If I should happen to bee candidate before, and the nominee of, the Charleston Conventioo, and be should vote against Me.
