Il was oar good furtuno to occupy a seat on the floor of tl.o United State Senate Chamber on tho til Ii inst., during tho delivery of Jud.p Douglas' great fcpiech ou the Pin sidchU message, iu relation to tho ofi'airs ef Kansas. After tho reading of tho message the day previous, Judge Douglas took excep tion to that portion which refer to thoall'airs of Kansas und stated that lift intended to give his views on this important subject. Sena tor liigler on the oilier band, gave notic8 i but ha concurred in the views of Ihe Presi dent, aud intimated bis readiness to defend him. The galleries and the floor of iho 5en- DruiiJiUto were crow di'Q w:thnxious spectators.

At tho conclusion there was great applause iu tho galleries ond on tho floor. Senator Mason, of Virginia, moved to clear tho gal leries, but was induced to withdraw his mo tion. Mr. Mason complimented the Senator from Illinois on having mado a powerful speech, but contended that it was founded on fallacies, which ho attempted to explain. Judge Pouglas eoon settled tho Virginia Senator. He then turned his uttcntiou to Uov. Higler, who bad intimated that tlio weight of the administration res tod upon his shoulders, and attacked tho views of Mr Douglas. We do not wish to detract from Uov. Digler, but his utter discomfit urn iu every encounter with tho "little giant" was painfully evident to all who wero present. One of the most striking scenes was when Uov. Digler referred to some private inter views at M r. Douglas' house, when, accord ing to Uov. Digler, it was resolved to prepnro a Constitution for Kansas, which wns not to bo submitted to tho people. Judgo Dou glas indignantly asked if he was present and participated in any such conversation, or was in any way privy to such nn arrangement. Uov. Digler's answer was still ffpiivucal. Judgo Douglas again persisted in having n direct answer, und asked the Senator from Pennsylvania not to insinmtto that which ho daro not uvow. Mr. Digler replied that it was in his house. Judge Douglas contempt uously asked, "What has my house to do with this question ?" No language can describe the withering rebuke and scornful sarcasms if tho "lilllo giant" in this scene. We observed Lord Napier and the French Minister listen ing wilh great interest to the debate. &ri:i: u or ji vuv. doigi.as. Tho following is an extract of tho creat speech delivered by Judgo Douglas, in the I U. S. Senate, on the tub inst. Judgo Dou- gins took exception to that portion of tho President's Message which relutcs to shivery. Wc regret that wo have not room enough for tho whole speech, which is nn over Imbu ing orgnmont in favor of his position nnd against tho adoption of the Lecomptoti Con stitution : It is sufficient for my purpose Hint the Administration of the Federal government unanimously, that the administration of the territorial government, iu all its parts, unani mously understood tho territorial law under which thu convention was assembled to mean that tho constitution to bo formed by that convention should be submitted to the people for ratification or rejection, and, if not con firmed by a majority of tho people, shoufd bo null and void, without coming to Congress for approval. Not only did tho National government and tho territorial government so ui dorstund tho law at the timo, but, ns I have already stated, the people of the terri tory so undentood it. As a further evidenco ou that point a lurgc number, if net the ma jority, of tho delegates wero instructed in tho nominating conventions to submit the consti tution to the people for ratification. I know that the delegates from Douglas county, eij;ht ia number, Mr. Calhoun, President of the convention, being among them, were not only instructed thus to submit tho question, but ibey signed and published, whilo candidates, a written pledge that they would submit it to tho peoplo for ratification. I know that men high in authority and ir. the confidenco of tha territorial nnd national government, canvassed every part of Kansas during tho flection of delegutes, and each one of them pledged him self to tho people that no snap judgment was to be ukon ; that tho constitution was to bo Eubinitlod to tho people, for acceptance or rejection j that it would be void unless that waa done; that tho Administration would spurn and scorn it as a violation of tho prin ciples on which it came into power, nnd that u Democratic Congress would burl it from their presence us an insult to Democrats who stood pledged to seo tho people left freo to form llieir dome.-tic institutions for themselves. Not only that, sir, but up to the timo when the Convention assembled, ou thu flint of Septem ber, so far as 1 can learn, it was understood everywhere that the constitution was lo be submitted for ratification or rejection. Thpy met, however, on the iiist of September, mill adjourned uulil after the October election. I think it wiso and prudent that thy should thus have adjourned. They did not wish to bring any question into lh.it eleciion which woulJ divide tho Democratic party, oud weaken our chances of success in the election. I was rejoiced when I saw that they did adjourn, so as not;to show their hand ou any question that would divide and distract tho party until after the election. During that rec8s, while tho convention waa adjourned, Uoverror Ransom, tho Democratic candidate for' Cohgrc'js, running aguinst tlio resent delegate from thut territory, Was canvassing every part of Kansas in favor of the doctrine of submitting the constitution to the people, declaring that tho Democratic party weiu in favor of such sul imiision, nn l that it was a slander of tho DUck Repiiblicani to intimate tha charge that tho Democratic party did not iutend to carry out that pledgo in good faith. Thus, up to tha timo of the meeting of tho convention, in October lust, the pre tenco was kept up, tho profession was openly made nnd believed bv me, and 1 thought be lieved by them, that ihe convention intonded lo submit u constitution to the people, nnd not to attempt to put a government iu opo. ration without such submission. 1 he rice tion being over, the Deri.ocintic party being ilelealou ly an overwhelming Vote, the pppo sition having triumphed and got possession of ooUl branches ol tho legislat ire, ami having elected their territorial delegate, tho conve- lion assembled and theu proceeded colM" ploto their work. Now let us stop to inquire low the.v re deemed the pledge to submit the ennstd ition to tha people. They first , "''' I?" .tt . mm V uiaKe u schedule, in eons itution. I hcj lW t!le eou3titllUu ' wluch they rr,eeiuber-ll,e p,ejL-..t .nontL JdUll be submitted to ull the lutui Ve iuhabi. tints of tho territory ou that day for their free acceptance or rejection, in the following manner, to wit : thus acknowledging that they wero bound to submit it to tha will of tba people, conceding that they bad no right to put it in pporalioii without submitting it to tho people providing ir, tho iustrmuent that it shoulJ take effect from and after thn dute of its ratification ond uot before; show ing that tha constitution derives its vitality, iu their estimation, uot from the authority of tbe Convention, but from that voto or tha pooplo to which it was to be submitted for their free acceptance or rejection. How is it tobosubniitte.lt It shall ba submitted in thi form : "Constitution with Slavery or Constitution with no Slavery." All mon must vote for tho constitution whether they , liko it or not, in order to be permitted to voto for or nirainsl slavery r. Thus n constitu- ticn mado by a convention that bad authority to assemble and petition for a redress of grievances, hut not to establish a government -va constitution mado under a pledge of bluer that it should be submitted to tho people before it .ook effect ; a constitution which provides, on its face, that it shall have no validity except what it derives from such submission is submitted to tho pooplo nt nn election where all men are at libvrly to come forward freely, without hindrance, nnd vote for it, but no man is permitted to record o vote against it. That would bo as fair an election ns somo of the enemies of Napoleon attributed to him when hn was elected First Consul. Ho is said to bavo called out his troops nnd hnd them reviewed by his ollieers swindling j for knaves, with nothing but brass with n speech, patriotic nnd fair in it1? profes- Tor their capital, aud that in their faces in sions, in which ho snid to tluini, "Now, my stead of their coders, nro induced to Ftt up soldiers, you ore to go to tho election nnd j manufactories of r.mall paper, to bo pent voto freely just ns you please. If you vote j abroad and Funic upon the hands of those for Napoleon, all is well j voto against him, among whom it U scattered ; all that is so nnd you nro instantly to be shot." That was i sunk bsing clear gaius to tho manufacturer. a fair election. Laughter. This election ! 7. It induces and even compels people to bo is to be equally fuit. All men in favor of tho ; wasteful of their money ; for such is tho nat constitution may vote for it all men against ural, honest and just contempt and distrust it shall not vote nt nil. Why not let them of email notes, that bo or fhu that receives voto against it 1 1 presume you bivo ashed I one, hurries oil to lay it out fur something many a man this question. I have n?ked n 1 not needed ; whilo a piece of gold of the very large number of the gentlemen who j oamo nmount would bo valued nnd cherished, framed tlio constitution, nirtu n number of , aud laid by and kept and ndduJ to, uutil delegates, und a still larger number of per sons wlio nro their mends, and 1 have re. ceived the sama answer from every one of them. I never received any other answer. What is that? They say if they ulbnved a negative vote, thn constitution would have been voted down by an overwhelming major ity, and bonce the fellows shall not bo ullowed to voto at all. Laughter. Mr. President, that may be true. It is no part of my purpose to deny tho proposition that that constitution would have been vMed down if submitted to tho people. I b'lievo it would have been voied down by a majority of Tour tn one. I am informed by men well posted there Democrats that it would be voted down by 10 to 1 ; somo say by 20 to 1. Dut is it a good reason why you should de clare it in force, without being submitted to the people, merely because it would have been voted down by fivo to one if you had submitted il ? What does that fact prv8 ? Dors it not show undeniably that an over, whelming majority of the puopln of Kansas are unalterably opposed to that constitution ? Will yon force it ou them ngainst their will simply because they wmiM have voted it down if you had consulted them ? If you w ill, oro yon going to foico it upon them under thu plea of leaving t,P; perfectly free to form and regulate their domestic institutions in their own way? Is tint the modo in which I am called upon to carry out the principle of self-government and popular sovereignty in the territories to force a constitution on tha people against their will, in opposition to i their protest, with a kno.vledL'e of tho fact, ftnil I'.utTl tn r.Sl!."-. n. ..nnsmi fi-.t. nil fvrnn- nv that they wo Sid bo so' obstinate" nnd so perverse as to vote down tho constitution if 1 had given them p.n opportunity to be con j suited ubout it? Sir. 1 deny your rifiit or mine to inquire of thesf, people what their i objections to that constitution nre. They have a right to judgo for theni5elves whether they like or dislike it. It is no answer to tell me thai the constitution is a pood ono nnd unobjectionable. It is not satisfactory to mo to have the President say in his mes sage that tho constitution is an admirable one, hue ull the constitutions of the new pre.-.-ion oi mo popular win must not be in states that have been recently formed. ! terrupted by fraud or violence." No one can Whether cood or bad. whether obnoxious or bo surprised that, looking to the letter of his not, is nono of my business and none ol your? It is their business, and not ours. I care not I what they bavo in their constitution, so that j it suits tiicm. and does not violate tho Con- . stitution of tho United Stales and the fundu- i mbntal principles of liberty upou which our ! institutions rest. j There is no necessity for crowding this ; measure, so unfair, so unjust ns it is in all its j aspects, upon us. Why can wo not now do ; w hat we proposed to do in the last Congress t Wn then voted through the Senate nu e;ia- bling act, called "the Toombs, bill," believed j lo bo just ond fair in all its provisions, pro-i nounced to be almost perfect by the Senator j from New Hampshire, (Mr. Hale.) only he did not like the man then President of tha j -- United Stntfs, who would have to inako the!

Denton, in a loug aud interesting letter in regard to tho present money panic, lie takes strong grounds against tho issue, of small notesunder tCd and recommend the passago of a Stamp Act by Congress for the pnrposo of driving them from circulation. His objections to email notes are as follows : I do not cxp'.iato upon thu evils of small paper money ; they are palpable to every ob server, and only require enumeration. 1. It drives away all bard money of equal denomi nations j for, in competition between two cur rencies, the meanest is always tho comjueror, and chases tho other out of lha Held. 'I. It is the great source of thn crime of couuter feiting ; for the mass of tho couutei fail con sist (d small notes. 3. It demoralizes tho community ; for peoplo not beiu willing to loso a nolo for which they have given value, instead of burning it whou rejected by a know ing Vne as counterfeit, put it back iu the pucket and oiler it ogaiu to an ignorant per son, who receives it, and then govs through tbe same process wheu rejected in bis bands.- 4.

It pillages tho poor nnd the ignor ant ; for every buso noto, every ono that is counterfeit, or on a broken bank, or on a bank that never existed, although it will run foi awhile, must stop somewhere, nnd, when it does, is sure to stop in the hands of tho poor nnd uninformed, npon tiiut class least ublo to beur the loss, who havo no advantage Irom hanks while in operation, nnd who beur the loss when they stop.

Senator Douglas, in tho debate on Wednes day last, said that ho was rejoiced to find, upon a careful and critical examination of tho message, tiiut tho President had not alto gether npproved the action of tho L'-comp-ton Constitutional Convention, or recom mended Congress lo receivo Kansas into the Union us n State uu ler the. instrument ema nating from that body. That Mr. Duchuiiati j has hot directly made a recommendation of i this kind is perfectly true; but the whole J tenor of what lm says on tho subject is to the j oil', c-t thut it is expedient for Congress t)i accept Iho Lecomptcu constitution.

President di-tinct'y states that he never believed the Kansas-Nebraska act to require that tho whole con.-1 i t u t ion should bo sub mitted to tho people, but only that portion of it relating to slavery; nnd the Lecomptoti Convention having complied with the regula tions of the organic art, it is right and proper that the constitutio'l framed by them .should bu recognized, and Kansas admitted under it. In our comment upon the mess.igo on Wednesday, we pointed out the discrepancy existing between tho position assumed by tho President, in this, his communication to CongrcfS, and his ins'.nictions to Uovernor Walker. Li tho written instructions to Walker, of .March '2-tli, the President says, "a constitution shall bo enbmitted to tho poopio oi iho ii. !ory, tliey uiu-t co protce- ted in the exercise id tne rilit ot voting i;)r or ugtiim-i Jhut instrument, and tho lair c.x. instructions, Uovernor Walker should have assured the neonln in the territorv thai, thev would be ullowed to voto on tho whole con- stitution, and nd pledgo his faith to this end. m believed tho Administration" tho fame thin?, und confidently Doubtless ho pledged to tho same thing, und confidently loosen lor its support. .Neither he nor any one els.-, could have imagined that when tho President stioko of the constitution, nnd of "that li'utiuiiioiil he bad reference only to a slavery proviso. If the slavery proviso alono was in Mr. Duchaiian's mind when he j penned his instructions to the Uovornor. bo certainly was most unhappy ia his mode cf expressing his intentions. rhuada. .urth -1 ricun. j one and two o'clock this morning during the nbsenco of tho Doctor from town, by tiirnin tho key t the front door with nippers.
