Missouri, from the Committee on Territories, reported the bill for the admission ot Kinsas, submitting n lcng report which was mot Mr. Douglas, of Illinois, and Mr. Collamer, of Ver mont, also submitted minority reports, which were_ t4ecerally ordered to be printed. Mr. Green gave notice that be should call up the tuautr at an early day. The consideration of the army bill was then re seined. Th, fourth section of the original bill was struck out; y elm 24, nays 23. Mr. Wilou's amendment that the reduction ut tho end of two years shall not operate on any officer in commission at the date of the approval of the act, was adopted. Mr. Iverson contended that the bill reported by the Military Committee was more accordant with the views of the administration than Mr. Johnson's. Volunteer were always more expensive and lees re l'able than regulars. Ile instanced the company at Tenno-see volunteers at Cott) Gordo that ran at tho first shut. The Tennessee. Senator's argument seemed to defend polygamy. It the Tennessee volunteers cat-rtain,,d similar opinions, he would be the last man to send them to Utah; instead of whipping tho Mormons, they would be more likely to join them, pOt lally it Lathan Young gave them half a dozen wives apiece. r anilin's motion that in no caHa shall 0:0 force thi , act coniinia , in seriii , e , .ver two yours.

Mr. Sewi.rd explained the views he.exprossed on the bill, which had been criticised. Mr. Brown said it the volunteers sent to the Utah war would' follow Brigham, they would not fight unless forced. The Senate adjourned. MOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. 11. Winter Davis, of Maryland, made a personal ex. planation, reading extracts ffom the speech of his colleague, Mr. Bowie, containing strong language against tho American party for their conduct during the Baltimore election, saying, while looking toward Mr. Davis, "You, sir, will hare a day of reckoning; I will put you under udy loot ; you shah not live an hour," etc. Mr. Davis wished to know whether his colleague applied that language to him. Mr. Bowie replied that when he thus epoko he per sonified the American party, and did not mean to apply them personally to Mr. Davis, but to the party w struck down the Democracy of Baltimore by force and bloodshed. He repeated that a day of reckoning would certainly come when there would box war of the people against such wrongs. He did Dot say how tar Mr. Davis counselled such wrongs, but it' he did he should take the responsibility. Ile had not any personal unkindness towards his col• league, and felt grieved to think that ho had wounded his feelings. He would tell the II use and the ita- tion that he believed in his utmost soul that such lincw Nohingism would lead to bloodshed and to revolution, and ho would coucsel those trampled upon to re6ii41.1300. Mr. Davis replied, that as to the opinions of his c,lleague touching the Ainer;ean party, the Ilouae was not the appropriate place for the-diEcusslon. He roe merely to inquire whether the !anguao applied all, to himself; his colleague's re,pense was sa.l-t .cyry. Th [louse wtnt into Committee of the Whole on tho Indi.n Appropriation bill. Mr. Shorter, of Alabama, epoko on the Kansas .11oFtiun. He said that all the S , mthern. States were now united on the Georgia platform, and Pledged to resist, even to the dissolution of the Union, this re fusal of Congress to admit Kansas because of the ex sten,.e of slavery there. He cared not whether this was a constitutional or a revolutionary right of the South ; he was prepared to defend it. lie contended th at the Lccompton Constitution was legally adopted ; it was Republican in form, and Congress has not the power to r,mand Kansas to her territoTial condition, ,he beiog an independent sovereignl State, by the consent of Congress. He expressed surprise that Mr. Douglas had abandoned the princip'es of the Nebraska bill, fleeing before the first gun was fired; tel like a Barthian throwing his poisoned arrows behind him. He did not went the votes of Mr. Douglas and his followers ;:,;f they did not reflect Northern opinion, the sooner the South knew this the better. Ho contended that it was never designed to make Kansas a slave State. Five Governors sent there were all Free Soilers, including the traitor Walker. It had been said that the admission of Kansas would light the flames of civil war; if so, let it come; let the fires rise even Heaven high. But he thought the refusal to admit her would rather en gender civil war; referring the question back to the maple would inevitably invite this result. The South cannot remain in the Union except on an equality with the North; in such circumstances the South °mere would not be a brave and gallant p epic; but were captives chaiued to the victorious car of the N'orth, he could rather be a vas,al of Old than 'New England. He said that the word " compromise " wag ffensive to him ; he would make it a penal of fence ior a Southerner to use it; it was suggestive in his mind of surrender, a base submission ; it sounded. se the language of M'Duffie, like the bugle blast of a r.d.ber band. Mr. Shorter continued in a Siinilar “rain, closing with the remark that the religion of Plymeuth Rock is intolerance, bigotry and fanati cism. Northern clergymen violated the seventh tilinandnaent a ter evening lectures, and when their rinse was exposed, they were courted and feted by ho fair sox. Mr. Zalliceffer made a personal explanation in eforenco to Mr. Hatch's FpocA yesterday. lie said ir.; Mr. Llat;dl had seen; proper to indulge in per ,onat remarks prejudicial to him and other members, Anti had also read rcrtain obligations purporting to ,long to ;ha American party. Mr. 7AlicotTer Ras member of that party. These obligations differed in letter and spirit from those he took. in Tennessee. Mr. Batch had denounced the obligations so treason able and unconstitutional. In doing so he had ;oral a falsehood, with which be now branded him, and fool; the retponsibility. Mr. Batch was not present. Mr. Tompkins made a speech in oppmdtion to the Loco:Lipton C,ns'itution. Ile would not inquire ;.vhether it met the sanction of the people. Time was oboe he would feel justified in voting fi.r the admit' , ion of a slave State south of 36:30 ; that was before tie repeal of the Missouri Compromise. That repeal muoved all national obligations, leaving him free to cute as conscience dictated. Mr. Clemens argued the legality of the Lecompton Constitution, contending that it was not necessary to submit it to the approval of the people. The Presi dent bad performed his duty fearlessly and man. ;ully. Mr. Burroughs got the floor, when the House ad• 'ourneed. From I,Velshington WASHINGTON CITY, February IS.—The report made to day by Mr. Green, from the Senate Committee on territories, recites at length the events in Kansas, and assorts that the majority of the people may ,imply, as in ancient days, in mass meeting, make Cm Constitution ; they may elect representatives to make one for them, or elect representatives to draft one to be submitted for approval or rejection. The last method has been the most approved during the past few years, though formerly the second method was very generally resorted to. The calling of a Convention, as ii\--khis case, was corceded to have been strictly legal, an lso the election of delegates. not logical to infer hat the Convention was ',gaily elected and clothed with authority to make a Constitution, which can no more‘e interfered with by Governor, Judge or Legislature, either to increase or litnini.h its power, or alter, modify or nullify its acts, than the people could be interfered with had they assembled no ~tame instead of representatives? In conclusion, the Committee says that the Abolitionists in Kansas have thus far sought power by methods un known to law and by violence, not through the peaceful agency of the ballot box. Claiming to give a majority of the voters of the territory, and there fore able to elect a Legislature and Convention, they ask Congress to wrongfully do for them what they may at legal times and legal places rightfully do for themselvk ; that is, to change or abolish their Con. Con stitution, and, in casi Congress refuse to comply with their constitutional demands, they threaten to afflict the country with an attempt at bloodshed and 1",volotion: Unless Congress will do for them what t icy assert they ore anxious not to do for themselves, ut which they wilfully refuse to do, they threaten to plague tie country into civil war. This conduct i so exceedingly unreasonable as to force the con y ,ttion upon the mind that they are conscious of be g a powerless minority and only expect to be able to compass their unwarrantable ends by departing A in the general way of peace and quiet. If year Ofiumittee are not greatly mistaken those reckless men misjudge the American people, anewill be rew quired to seek for peaceful methods for the redress of all their greivancem, wtv.ther they be real or aginary. The bill reoites that the people of Kansas framed for themselves a Constitnticn end Statetriverntheilt, republican in form ; and the Convention:held at Le,, compton has, in their nameand behalf, naked Con. grees to admit her. There it is declared that Kansas, should be admitted into the Union on an equal foot- Mg with the original States in all respects whatever. The bill prescribes boundaries, and contains the usa al regulations relative to and grants of public lands as in the case of Minnesota, lytiri_gives Kansas for the present, one representative in the Rouse of Represen tatives. . Mr. Douglas' in his report, dissents from the vie ws of the majority for reasons, among others, that no satisfactory evidence exis's that the Constitution framed by the Leeompton Convention is the act and deed of the people of Kansas, or embodies their wilL Ho shows that the Convention wag not clothed with competent power to establish a Constitution without the assent of Congress, which has been expressly with. held in this case; hence the Convention only had such power as the Territorial Convention could rigl.t• fully confer. and no More, which Was to form a Con stitution and send it to Congress as a memorial for admission which could be accepted or rejected, a. , cording as it embodied the papulsr will. Thdt all the proceedings of the Convention should have been held in strict obedience to the authority of the Teri tor government, white in fact it was declared to be o force, and take effect, in defiance of the authority of the Territorial government, as well as without the consent of Congress ;, that the only lawful election held on the adoption of the Constitution was that of the 4th of January last, which was in obedience to the law framed by the Territorial Legislature established by Congress, with full legislative power on all right. ful subject within the Territory. Messrs. Collamer and Wade, in submitting their views, say that the territorial government of Kansas was never organized as provided in the original act ; that is by its own people—but was usurped by a foreign force, conquered and subdued by arms, and a minority installed in power, which has ever since been sustained by the general government, instead of being examined into and corrected. This has boon done to establish and perpetuate slavery. The Le compton Constitution is the result of these proceed ings, and is contrary to the will of a great majority of the people legally expressed, and for Congress in its discretion to consummate this protracted atrocity, especially for such a purpose, is a violation of the fundamental principles of republican government, and can produce no permanent peace or satisfaction to the people of the Territory. In the late territorial election, they have reclaimed their rights, and the territorial government is, for the first time, now moving peaceably in its legitimate sphere to prom ised freedom. lhe Lecomptun Constitution and its adoption was concocted and executed to supercede the triumph of justice; to admit it by Congress is but to give success to fraud and encouragement to iniquity, and to turn over that people not to an elec tion fairly and legally conducted, but to such State officers and legislators as Calhoun shall hereafter proclaim, and on such contingency as he shall deter mine; and his long, mysterious and inexcusable in decision and'reserve, but encourages expectations in both parties, one of which is certainly doomed to disappointment. Gen. Calhoun, in his published defence, says that he has written to Denver to procure the sworn state ments of judges, respecting the controverted Dela ware Crossing precinct, and have them taken under such circumstances as will secure a free and unbiassed exhibition of the facts by sworn statements so ,pro cured, and he shall be governed by the facts in 'give in g the certificates of election to members of the Leg islature from Leavenworth county, even if it shall, as it probably will, place the government of Kansas in the hands of his enemies. No one will rogret it more, yet he shall honestly discharge his duty. Jack Henderson, Clerk of the Surveyor General of Kansas, and Mr. Marshall, the pro slavery Goys ernor elect of Kansas, have both arrived in this city. Mr. Winston has been appointed United States Marshal for Kansas. He is the same person who, some time ago, was appointed Indian Agent of the :lam territory, but was removed.
