I Garrett Davis Enraged. , Uproar in the Senate Chamber—A l Senator $ Fist in Ben Bailer's Face— A Trickster Ihronounced a Bcoun~ | (irel —Henri/ Wilson Preventing a Disgraceful Fight. Washington, March 30,—An extraordi- i nary scene was witnessed in the Senate Chamber to-day, which, while it lasted, created a profound sensation, especially in the galleries. Garrett Davis had been speak ing for some time upon Sherman's resolu tion instructing the Judiciary Committee to report the Ku-Klux bill, and had work ed himself up into a passion at what be . characterized as the unjust charges of dis orders made upon tbe South, when Gen. Butler entered the Senate Chamber. At this point Davis was facing his Democrat ic colleagues, and was apparently exhort ing them. Gen. Butler, seeing who was speaking, marched over in that direction and took u sent ncxtto the KentuckeySena tor. Th en si retch ingh is 1 egs out he w heel - cd his chair around, threw his head back, and looked at Davis with an expression ol mingled insolence and contempt. The galleries thinking it a piece of bravado, en joved it hugely. Davie, whose back was *till tinned, had reached that point in hi* speech whare lie. *'* claiming that tha stories ofttouthern outrage* Wrra gto*ly • xaggc rated. "They are ogt" lahl he ; "they are the vile invention* f impitnci plcd adventurer* and hearties* scoundrel*, made to continue their ill-gotten hold on political pewer. They are" and here turn ing round in tha warmth of hi* feeling* he beheld Butler slmort at hi* verv elbow, looking Mraight at him with a face immova ble a* *tone. Davis instantly paused in hi* half-finish i ed sentence, placed both hands on his desk, and glared at Butler with the feroei -1 ty of a tiger. Butler returned the Kcn tuekiau's took unflinchingly, only growing a trifla paler. This tableau continued for 1 several minutes, neither changing In. alti tude a particle, while the galleries looked ■ on in pninfUt suspense, and the surround • ing Senator* held their breath and affected an uncoucern which no one felt. Pinallr Garrett drew himself up, thrut hi* clenched fist almost in Butler's face, and said; "Here, here is the man! This i the class i ef men who concoct stories of diabolical Southern outrage*, and then ask for unlimi ted power to suppress them, hock at the scoundrel! Here heist" And hit excitement becoming Km great for him, be sank back In hi* seat, while the Pre* dent promptly suppressed some threatening demonstration* which were attempted in the galleries. It being one of thoee thing* where interference was a very delicate matter, no one had attempted any thing of the kind thus far, and all tn the hall breathed more freely when Garrett dropped into his seal. Still Butler never moved, nor altered the expression of hi* free, although a thousand eye* were turned upon bim. Garrett was no sooner in his chair than he wheeled it round, and began to draw it up by shortjerk* in the direction ol Butler, until the distance between tbcm was almost imperceptible, when he burst out again with : "Oh. you scoundrel! You rascal!', with a few strong adjective* prefacing each of the above epithets. "Did you come here to insult me?" Butler replied, "Go away from me. What do you suppose I care about you? Go away." Garrett was just about to raise his arm to strike Butler, when Uenry Wilson left his own seat, hurried over to the scene of threatened conflict, and, placing himself between the two men, stopped the disgrace fti! proceedings at once. Garrett, on being appealed to in a calm, considerate way, cooled down, and retired" into one of the Senate ante-rooms. Butler however stalked aruund the Sen ate for several minutes laughing and talk ing to this one and that as though nothing wbalhever had occurred. When Davis was asked later in the day why he had given way to his feelings in such a conspicuous manner, he replied that it was very evident to him that But ler took-h is seat there for no other purpose than to intuit him, and he would allow no i man to do that. But ler, however, says j that he no more thought of Davis when he | sat down than he did of the man in the ] moon, and never had the least of insulting him. The general verdict to night seems to be that if Butler must have row*, he had belter keep on his own side of the house. (J runt's Ignorance. We v6terday published —says the New York sun, a radical paoer —the message of President Grant asking leg islation from Congress to "secure life, |liberty, and prosperity in all parts of; the United States;" and also alleging! that "a condition of affairs now exists j iu some of the States of the Union, j rendering life and property insecure. I and the carrying of the mails and col lection of the revenue dangerous."; This message affords a new proof of. President Grant's utter ignorance of] the Constitution of the United Elates, and the limits to the authority of the Federal Government which it fixes. Congress has aothing to do with passing laws for the protection of life and property. That is the dutjr of the State Gerernments. There is no authority in the Constitutiou for the passage of any law* to protect the life or property of cititcns iu any State. That power belongs exciuire ly to the Legislatures of the several States; and when the President calls upon Congress for the enactment of laws of this description, he calls fbr legislation which transcends the pow ers of that body. As for the carrying of the mail* and the collection of the revenue, which the President says are now dan gerous, he already has as much power for the removal of that danger as he should desire. The army of the Uni ted States is under his control for pre cisely this service ; and if its forces are not sufficient to protect the mail car riers and the revenue collectors, he ha* a right to call upon the Governors of th Kates for the militia for that purpose. When ha invites Congress to pass new laws upon this subject, ha simply gives conclusive proof of his own ignorance and incapacity. The Ku Klux Kian. A True History 'he Organization— Its Origin, Objects, Signs, Grips, and Passwords. From tbe Louisville Courier-Journal. J The body of men which first assumedthe namo ofthe Ku-Klux-Klan was a very dif ferent organization from the thieve* and robbers who now p*owl about for purposes of booty. The latter have borrowed the liv.ry of tbe formehto serve the devil in, and hence that originally genteel organi zation is mado tha scape-goat of every out rage in the country. The original organi zation is gone out ofexistence entirely, and a reliable gentleman, now in-thiscity. who was a member of the K lan, is responsible for the following statement of facts: The Ku-Klux-Klan was peculialy of Southern crigin, and was intended to counteract the "Grand Army of the Republic" and the Loyal League," and fur the better protec tion of tbe families of Southern wsn from the depredation* ef the robbers turned loose on society after the war. Their object was to protect, not to depredate; to build up, not to destroy. A* evidence of their mo tive* —peace and good order—the oath each member took uuon himself was a pledge to "support the constitution a* given by our forefathera, and U> protect Die weak against tbe strong." This shows that it was only the disturb ars ofthe public peace, tbe land-pirate* who follow cloeupon the heel* of tucb disor ganization of society as ensues after a long war, who had any cause to fear the terrible bugbear of Ku Kluxism. It* name was suggested by the noise which the old army mu*kut make* when springing the lock and discharging the piece. Ku—Klux—Klang—the first two sylable* made by the lock, the last was the bang, or Klang of the discharge, the final "g" being afterward* disch rged for the sake of euphony. Their signs grips were few and simple. A member was recognized by returning, twice, a gentle pressure of the hand, or when band-shaking was not practicable, passing the fingers of the right hand gent ly through the hair, in reponse to a like motion from the inquirer. The Klan was organized, a* before stated, in a sentiment of peace aud good will to all, and malice toward none. It was es tablished by the very best men in the coun try, the leader* of tbo Confederate armies, and extended from U> th Rio Grand. It was composed ol men wh" loy- Ed peacp for its own SRke; it was a perfect knight errantry ofthe Southern States, n* harmless, aud intended to be fur more use- fill and jul'H'nicntofgood HiornU than the L<ty„l teaMeafd Urn Gfiind Army-hut thabuenndWy 41-4fj|a||*t, ami epeflfcl* \v Ue fact that every \ ilJain aonn< d It* virtue* for the purpusa of perpetrating hi* ottirage*, fir-ally induced ad rhaiulinent of the organisation Tito Frvnrli < i vil Wnr Fighting ha* really begun around Pari*, •t he bridge evrr the Seine at Sevrc. vvu* carried l>y Due rot'* men, but a much more aariou* engageinent took place on "nil at the bridge of Ncuillv, where several thousand National* were rented, anddriv •n into the city.

The following are copious extracts from Senator Sumuer's speech, deliv ered in the Senate, iu oppo sition to the President's San Domini can policy, allusion to which is nißile in the Congressional proceedings. Mr. Suiuncr in hi* opening para graph detiuitely asserts that it is now en evidence before the Senate lliat the navy of the United State* under order from Washington has been en gaged in measures of violence and bel ligerent intervention —bein; war without the authority of Congress. The whole business, he add* is aggra vated when it is considered that the declared object of this violence in ac j quiailion of foreign territory being ! half an Island in the I'arrihean sea, and still further that this violence has been employed to prop and maintain a weak ruler, hint a usurper upholding him in power that he might sell his country, and secondly it has been em ployed to menace the blank republic Hnyti.' Such a case, Mr. Sumner continues, is too grave for eiLnce for the sake of the navy, the administration of repub licau institutions and for the sake of | the Republican party, which cannot afford to become responsible for such conduct, the case must not pass with out inquiry : but beyond all these eon siderntions, it is a commanding rule of justice. The questiou is not whether the aegusition of San Domingo Is desirable, but whether we are justi fied iu the means employed to accom plish this acqusition, and evidence now before us shows 100 clearly that means have been employe 1 which cauuot be justified. He had aupposed that the proceed ings regarding the treaty for annexa tion were blameless uutil while it was pending before the Senate, the Assist ant Secretary of State brought him a number of dispatches among which was one from our Consular At'* ll ' there, who signed the treaty of anuea- 1 ation, frora which it distinctly appear ed that Baez. while engaged in selling his couutry, was maintained in power by the navy of the I nitcd Slaiw. Other evidence has accumulated to show that we were engaged in forcing upon a weak people the sacrifice of their country, the State Department and Naval Department each contained a record of disgraceful, intolerant ami deplorable proceedings, and still they pressed consummation. The story of Naboth's vineyard was revived unless the report of the State and Navy De partment are discredited. It is obvi ous beyond a doubt thai our Government has seized the wnr powers carefully guarded by the constitution and without authority of Congress has employed them to trample on inde pendence aud equal rights ot two na tions co-equal with ours. The Senator then characterise* Baez and Giant as eopartners in the melancholy affair and carefully reviews the history of tne former and his unscruploiis usurpation, lie re cites the origin pf ihe sphefjie of an nexing half the Island which is gener al'y known. lJaez was obliged to invoke foreign assistance, "Help tne caucus or I sink" cried the citizen. The European powers would not listen, rone of them wanted his half of the Island, not Spain, not France, not England, none ofthetn would tajte ij, but at last he was relieved by an answering voice from our republic. A young officer incxjicrienccd iu life, ignorant of the world, untaught in the Spsnieli language, unadvised in international law, knew absolutely nothing of {he intcrcousc between na tions and uiicouecious of the pomtitu tion of hi* country was selected by the President to answer the cry of the grand citizen. In the closest associa tion with Bars and with profitable concessions not easy to measure was the American Guineau known a* dis loyal to our country and so thorough ly suspected that the military pleni potcntiary before leaving Washington was expressly warned nguinst nitu, but he ut once rushed into the em brace of the selfish speculator who boasted his intimacy beyond all Amer icans with the aamuna, and annexation negotatiens to their class, and who did not hesitate to instruct Unci. It was nut only hi* right but his duty to keiqi an American citizen in person to serve and preUct the negotiation* in which our President was interested, which lie denominates the greul business In baud. By the side ofCnzneau was Fabius, alao'tt speculator lipd life long intriguer, afterward* thi* Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenijto tentiary of Baez in the great buainoiw. A treuty was signed -bv which the usurper pretended to sell his country to the United States for $1,500,000; a so another treaty leasing the Bay of Ha ma n a for all annual rent of $l5O, 000.

The latter arrested him as soon us his second usurpation sucevtded and im prisoned hint, and he was detained in prison by the authority of the uur|>cr at the *|>ecial instance of Casneau and with the contrivance of Babcuck in or der to prevent his iuHuetice against 1 the treaty of annexation. This evi ! deuce is explicit. Gauther, the Minister of Baer, who had signed the treaty, ia an official note to our Consular Agent, dated at ! San Domingo, February 18,1870, at d communicated to the Stale Depart [ment, says: "I desire you will ln ' good enough to assure his Excellency, the Secretary of State, at Washington, that the prolonged sojourn of Ha'oli ; liere has been only to prevent his hos j tile action in New York." Nor is this all. Uaxucau had the j H]ual hardihoad to write to Bibcock, then at Washington, itt.d.r date of Feb ruary 19, 1870, a similar version of the conspiracy, where, after denouno ! ing our commercial agent at S.in Do mingowho was urgiug tho liberation jof Hatch, ho procccilad to sav that | the latter would certainly make use 1 of his liberty to join the Knemie* of .jnNCXuftoii. !

In other days it was said the licst Governments are where an injury to a ring'e citizen is resented as an injury to the who!# country.

Is there any Senator * in earnest against the ku klux, let him arrest it on the coast of San Domingo? ( Is the.e nny Senator ready at all times to seek the elevation of the African | race, here is occasion fo' his best ef forts ? Mr. Sumner concluded : In the evi- i - deuce adduced 1 have oonfined myself | carefully to public documents.
