The bill amendatory of the uct to promote tho ellicieiicy of the Nnvy was taken up, and a desultory discussion ensued on mi miry amendments. At 4 o'clock an unsuccessful motion was made to adjourn. Mr. Toombs obtained the floor, saying, thut as the Senate was anxious to discuss the (ticstioii now, he would proceed to give his views ut large. Mr. Hunter Will the Senator yield the floor for n motion to adjourn ? Mr. Toombs. No sir. The Senate has just refused to adjourn.

Mr. Toombs proceeded to give the history of the rise und progress of tho Navy, going back to the foundation of the government. Very few Senators remained in their seats, und there was much conversation going on in audible tones. Tho Speaker several times railed tho Sen ate to order, when Mr. Toombs said, "the talking does not disturb mo in the least. 1 am glad to hear Senators discussing the sub ject.

The declination of Judge Ives gives rise to many conjectures ns to the cause. C3"Tho friends of Mr. Fillmore nre deter mined to stand by their man, as will bo seen by the following orticle from the 'Amcricun Banner. Ono thing must be conceded by ull parties, and that is, that Mr. Fillmore is a candidate, creditable to any party that might nominate him : AMtllllANS, WILL YOU KVYAI.LOYT THE ru.L? Will the friends of Millard Fillmore in Pennsylvania vote for Fremont Electors' Will they a llil iu to with u parly just us hostile to the American party as the l.ocofocosT Wo think not.

Are you prepared to (.wallow that pill Americana? Let the result bo as it would, you would ho voting for ynur opponents. Should the Republican color lead, Americans would virtual! j bo voting fur a Republican President. Should the Fillmore ticket suc ceed.

Nfl better plan could be sug gested to elect Burhur.aii. Thousands would leave the Aiiiciu'un parly in disgust. Americans, "row" your own boat," uud use vo-ir own our i. meiit to the pending resolution objection was made. Mr. Meacham moved the previous question, which was ngreed to. Mr. F.dmundson, by general consent, made n statement all'ectiug himself. Mr. Kdinunsoii said he did not complain of the conclusions of the Committee as to the effect of his testimony, but objected to the grounds on which they proposed to celiMiro him. While he had been interrogated on all points concerning his knowledge of the affair, was it nut singular that the Committee did not serve a notice on him to uppear iu his own behalf? The Committee sought to celi suro him because, having bton in'onnid of the contemplated assault, he did Hot lake the means to prevent it, or inform Senator Sum ner of his danger. Now, he thought if any one was iu danger, it was Mr. Brooks, who hid only a walking stick, while the report had cone out that M r. Sumner was uriued. He would have degraded himself if ho had re vealed what hud been privately suid to him by Mr. Brooks, uud the condemnation of the llotise could produce no chung.i iu his mind on that point. If he was to bo punished for not turning traitor to n friend, if degraded for this, then be was ready for his sentence. He had no idea of taking any pait in the oc currence, unless som.! third party should attempt foul play on either tide. In that event ho would have adopted the Kentucky und Virglnfii doctrine, und insisted upon fa r play. He was there to do justice or nothing, flu's was the only ground on which lie wus invited to be there, nor would ho have been there on any other terms. Tho committee, in their report, say that his conduct was rep rehensible. This was un unjust word, und wounded his Sensibilities, lie said, iu re spouse to n question by Mr. Dunn, thut the first intimation lie hud '.hat the committee designed censuring, wus from the correspond ent of a newspaper, and further, he would have satit-lj d the committee, had he had uu opportunity that he wou!d liute interfered only iu case of foul play. Mr. Pennington said, so far as be was Con cerned, he was anxious that Mr. Fdiuundsoii should bu heard bel'oro the committee, hulas the gentlemiin had made no such request, Mr. P. cume to the conclusion that lie hud nbuu dolied the desire. Mr. Ldmiinds.'U replied that it was too late for him to avail himself of that courtesy after the character of Ihe report had been determined upon. As justice had been denied him iu the tirnt place, he preferred uppculiug to the Douse. Mr. Orr desired to know whether Mr. Sumner's te stimony was, on the evening of the same day it was taken, furnished to the newspaper press by the uiilhoiity or conni vance of the comuiil tee. M r. Campbell, of Ohio, gave this an urn - qtuvocul uud omphalic denial. Mr. Cobb, of Georgia, corroborated this statement, saying that tho testimony alluded to was not procured from uny ono connected with the Comiiiitten. Mr. Campbell, of Ohio, said, Mr. Orr had made a charge which involved his integrity us a member, namely, thut the Committee had sought, by this report, to muko political capital. Mr. Orr then replied, thut ho did not im. pugn the motives or the gentleman or his ussociates but the report itself looked us if they" hud gone into the investigation to make Presidential capitul. He stuted expressly, that ho did not intend to reflect peisonul'y on tho gentleuiun. Mr. Campbell expressed himself satihficd. He said that up to this morning liu bad not only been willing, knt anxious that gontlo mnn implicated in this transaction should present facts. He argued that the real question involved strike nt tho very exis tence of tho government, whether the people pliull havo the power to govern or whether tho Constitution and laws shall bo on one side, nnd the freedom of the cudgel on the other. Tho llotisn then voted on Mr. F.nglish's substitute, that the llonse declares its dis npprohution of the assault on Senator Sum ner, nnd deems this a lit occosion to express Its disapprobation of the use 01 lanuiiiice in debate iiersonallv oS'ensive to individual members of Congress r Slates of the Union, and it wns rejected veas do, nays 1 Tho substitute of the minority of the Coin luittee for tho resolutions reported by the mniorilv. vi ; that, tho House bus no inns. diction over the tissual! committed by Mr. Brooks upon Senator Sumner, nnd therefore deem it improper to express nny opinion on the subject, was voted on nnd rejected jeus C.ti. nnvs 145.

The Sneaker said tho' (louse lias refused to agree to the resolution, there not being two-thirds in its favor us required by the ( oustitution in such rases. Mr. Brooks rose to a question of privilege saying that he had felt that tho lights of his constituents uud the rights of members have been violated by tho action of the House. Mr. (iiddinus I wish to know what the ques-tion of privilege is. Mr. Brooks 1 will state it. Mr. Dunn 1 ask that by unanimous con sent the gentleman from S iuth Curolina be heard. M r. fiiddiugs For one I shall give no sncli consent. I object to anything out vf onlt from that conth-ninn. The Speaker The gentleman from South Carolina states that ho rises to a privileged question. Mr Dunn I trust tho House wi'l enter tain n motion for the suspension of the rules M r. N ichols Delicacy may have prevented the sciitlcinuti from sneakinir heretofore, and it. is proper he should bo heard now. 1 pro test, in the name of truth und justice, against keeping him silent, if he desires to speak. Mr. Ilustis It would be u cross violation t.r courtesy and decency to deprive him of his privilege. Mr. Florence The gentleman from South Curolina had risen, and was stating Ins ques lion without oliiection. It wns not in ord for Mr. Oiddings to object to his proceed lug. Tho Speaker U was competent for the gentleman from Ohio to ruisu the question of order. Mr. (lidding? We have voted nnd did our duty, and ought not to listen to a speech out of order. Mr. Campbell, of Ohio, earnestly appealed tn Mr. (iiddings to withdraw his objection. Mr. Brooks ought to be heard, as iio was vi tally interested. Mr. Comins likewise appealed to Mr. (iid dings to withdraw his objection, nnd Ml'- Oid- tiings yielded only on the ground ol sntislytng his friends. The members crowded in the neighborhood of Mr. Brooks, and the spectators intensely interested, leaned over the galleries to hear him. Mr. Brooks said that Mr. Sumner had ut tered a slander on his Statu and n venerable relative, who nt the time wusnhscut; nod not content with this, he published the libel on his State and blood. Whoever insulted South Carolina insulted him ; be stood readi ly nt ull times, humbly und modestly, us a son to perforin his dutv. lie should have forfeit ed his self respect, nnd the good opinion of his countrymen, if he had permitted the of fence to pass unpunished. It was a personal nll'.iir. and in taking the redress into his own hands he tveunt no disrespect to the Senate or House, ucr -"d he mean any disrespect to Massachusetts'. Ho was aware of the per sonal responsibility I..- incurred, and was pre- pared to meet it. liu Kti.v tic was aiuenuoie to i lie laws, which oll'ored tho s.'.l'n protection nt Con gress or in the private walks ol life.

It is true, a few trimmers to head olf thu immaculate Colonel, at our last county meeting procured the adoption of a resolution conceding the next nominee for Congress to Northumberland County. This pel haps is not very far from justice, had it been coupled with the idea who the nominee should be, iiiusniiich as the frieiidsjtnd oppo nents of Unit resolution, with few exceptions, nre decidedly in favor of thu nomination of omo person belonging to the Democratic iii-yiu Norlhuiiibeiland (..ounly, w ho pos sesses the requisite talent, integrity uud re spectability, ami that such u person may be found uinoug our friends there no one here doubts.

If, however, on thu other baud, our friends in Northumberland County should determine ollierwiKe, nnd nguiii think of fiiisliug upon lis one. who has mil lung to recommend him either at home or abroad but n cnllh instead ol abil ilies, they will most assuredly find their error upon a count of tiiu ballots on the second Tuesday of October next.
