SENATOR BRIGHT'S GnEAT SPEECH
KAI.SAS QUESTION.
During this long continued and vexations
Kansas controversy, it has been our aim as
an editor, to do everything in our power, so
far as our influence might extend, to assuage
anything like bitterness of feeling between the
members of the great nation& Democratic
party. We have believed that it behooved us
as a young Democratic editor, not to attempt
anything like dictation, nor to force down the
throats of our readers, opinions which, at
least to a portion of our Democratic friends, we
know would have been distasteful. We have
la:ored to inform our readers upon this tines ,
Lion as upon others which have come before
the public, and with this design we have, pend
ing the Kansas debate in Congress, published
at length a number of the princie al speeches
which have been made on either side of this
difficult question. At the out start, we pub•
lished both Mr. Bigler's and Mr. Douglas'
speech in the Senate, and we either rubli hed
entire or gave copious extracts from a nuru•
ber o' others. We have preferred to let our
readers know what the great leading lights or
the Democratic party had to say, rather than
verbosely to argue the question ourselves.—
When occasion appeared to demand that we
should approve or disapprove, we have done
so independently and fearlessly, but we have
considered that our large list of subseriners,
especially those to the Weekly Pont, preferred
to read what the distinguished statesmen in
Congress said, rather than lucubrations.—
That we have not been over modest in this re•
apect, our la - ply increased subscription list
within the past three m nths, has telly
proved to our own perfect satisfaction.
In the course adopted, we have tried to give
both eidesa fair chance to be hand on this
question of admitting K 5718113 as a State under
the Lecompton canstitetion. Mr. Montgomery
last occupied oar oelumns and on Wednesday
morning we shall lay before ou - readas entire
the speech of Hon. Jesse D. Bright, of Indie
ana, made in the Senate of t;:. Unite I Sates,
on the 20th of March. With the publication of
this we shall move the previous question"
upon the publication of long Kansas speeches
so far as the Post is concerned. We think
we have fully done our share towards the en..
lightenment of the public upon this issue, and
regarding the distinction which has temper
arily obtained of "Lecompton" and • anti-Le
compton" as of little moment where all are
'Popular Sovereignty National Democrats," it
gives as pleasure to say, that our readers will
find in the remarks of Sereeor Bright the
ring of true Democratic metal. Ile is one of
• the great statesmen of the west, and in the fa,
tare of our party, and the nation will occupy
a marked and enviable position—a position in
which his talents will place him, and to
which his patriotism will entitle him. We
have already taken our position upon Mr.
Montgomery's bill as a fair ground of compro
. mise, and in publishing Mr. Bright's speech,
we do it in this spirit of giving both sides an
opportunity ott being beard. We go in for
Montgomery's bill—ethers may hold opinions
with. the Indiana Senator—but Lecompton or
anti.Lecompton—all are Democrats, and have
a right to .the respectful hearing of their fel.
low Demi:amts.
The Utah Expedition.
It has been stared in the newspapers that
Gen. Harney had received orders to repair to .
Utah tu,' take command of the army of that .
military department. The fact is that Gen.
Tersifer Smith has been ordered to Utah a a
well as General Harney, and that the chief
command will devolve upon Geueial Smith.—
General S. is one of the most accomplished
and popular officers is the service---a soldier
by choice and education, of thorough and ma,.
tared study in military sei , nce, of great ex
perience zs an effil . .er, and endowed withal by
a high and acknowledged military genius.

trained horses—the learned elephants and all
the other "fixings." We are not ashamed to
acknowledge a weakness of equestrian and lac,

For several days past, says the Ledger, the
hares of G'rarel Bank have been declining in
price—not largely, but enough to elicit inquiry
as to the reason. It is alleged that come months
ago, when the paper of a certain house, then
in good credit, was offered for discount, the
President met some opposition with the re.
mark that he ould guarantee it. The firm
having Eince !alien into discredit, it is said to .‘fi
'the purpose of the bank to hold the late Presi•
dent to his guarantee, although it is not pre
tended, as related, that any minute of such
guarantee was made,or that any consideration
therefor passed. It is further stated that the
estate - of the late President presents, and
means to press a claim for seta:), as chief ote
ficer of the bank, during the time he was et
its head—no salary having been paid to him—
the understanding being, on the part of the
bank, that the services were gratuitously per
formed. Mr. Boker was the President of the
institution some twelve years, for which it is
said, $25,000 is claimed—a charge certainly
very reasonable, if the claim is considered
allowable. These statements are very cir
cumstantially made on the street, and may
or may not he correct as stated ; we allude to
them merely to state that admitting them to
be true they involve amounts so inconsiderable
as to be quite unworthy of consideration in
establishing the value of the stock. The paper
of the firm alluded to is considered to be betier
than that of the suspended• houses, and it is
.the general opinion, will ultimately, and not
very remotely, be paid in full, with interest.

From the St. Paul (Him sota) Tunes we
lean that the office of Mrs. Swissttelm's paper,
the Vistter, at St. Cloud, was broken into on
the night of the 24th ult. the press taken to
pieces, and part of it carried off, the type all
scattered over the streets, and thrown into the
river.. The outrage was conducted so quietly
that nothing was known of the affair by the
citizens generally until morning. On the ta
ble of the office the following notice was
found :
APRIL 6, 1858.
ST. CLOUD, March 24,:1858.
EDS . oY TUB VISITED.: Tee eitiZellb of St.

You will never have the opportunity to repeat
the offense in this town, without paying a more
penalty than you do now.
By r of the Comin , ttee of Vigilance.
The citizens of St. Oloud,indignant at this
outrageous assault upon the freedom of the
p ress, and doubly Indignant because the injured
party was a woman, highly esteemed for her
talents and many exeellent qualities ; issued a
call for a meeting to be held at the Stearns
Home on the ensuing evening,and invited Mrs.
Swies'aelm to speak on the occasion. Although
but a few hours notice had been given, says
the Times, yet so large and respectable an sue
dienee was perhaps never before convened in
the Territory north of St. Anthony. Nearly
the entire population of the town—men, wo
men and children, turned oat en masse, while
large delegations were present from Sank
Rapids and the surrounding country.
Swisshelm read an address of consid
erablele'ngth, opening with some interesting
passages in her personal history, and then
giving the h•story of her connection with the
Vastter Mr. Brett, a Germau Democrat, had
engaged her to edit the paper, with the under ,
standing that it should be mainly devoted to
advocating the advantages of the country, bnt
that she should be allowed to speak with free
dom -an all subjects. So far all was well.—
But there were certain prominent Yankee Deme
ocrats, who claimed some control over the pa-
per—Col. Barstow, Gen. Lo wrie, and James
Shepley, Esq., a brother-in law of the former.
Barstow bad lectured at the east on Mit:lnce%
ota, and Mrs.S. spoke in complimentary terms
of his lectures, which offended Lowrie, who
feared that such indorsement might compro
mise Barstow with the powers et Washington,
where he had some job to be engineered
through by the latter's agency. Then Mrs. S.
talked with great freedom upon the institution
of slavery, and ;his naturally shocked some
people. Then the quarrel became somewhat
persona, and Mrs. S. drew a graphic pea and
ink sketch of some anonymous lady, which
the public recognised as a female friend of/the
aforesaid Shepley. Rut we need not -go'. fur
ther intodetails. One who hss read the wri
tings of Mrs. Swibshelizi will understand hew
a vulgar clique of politicians would writhe
under her sallies u; wit arid sarcasm. They
couldn't stand it, and accordingly sneaked
into the Vtsiter office in the middle of the
night and perpetrated the outrage above spo
ken of,
Mrs. Swiseheim's address is a very racy
production. In conclusion she says :
The threat rf further violeulie you can all ap
preciat?. 11%,u my sin, [the spoker drew
out a pen aad held it up,] midi/aisle my weapon.
These my opponents are honorable men, all hon
orable men, and it appears they cannot muster
quite euffietout force to manage so fortnidable
monster. It has been decided. that the pulpit
and the forum and the press are not sufficimat to
kill the drago,, and aow they are ready to res.irt
to" bowie knives and Colt's revolvers. I move
they call out the volunteer companies organised
to fight the Indians; and send on for Gen.
Scott, with a detachment. of "horse, foot end
dr.goons."
It is apprehended that my life will actually be
offered up a sacrifice to propitiate the spirit of that
glorious institution of woman whipping which a
clique of deniogogos are
„ straining every nerve
t extend over car native country, and perpetu
ate to remotest ages.
It you chink, gentlemen, that it will be well
for the honor of St. Cloud that I should die here,
and in this cause, God's will be done 1 my will
made, my pledge will he redeemed, my vow ful
filled, and my life given in the cause of God's suf
fering poor.
The response of the meeting to the; spirited
lady's appeal is embodied in a series of reso
lutions. The pe,ople in Minnesota will find
"Our Jane" rather a hard woman to manage.
First or last she will have her own way—you
may depend upon that.
Thanks.
We are under obligAtiona to Messrs. Irwin
and Foster for favors from Harrisburg.
Briefly in yesterday's Post we noticed the
result of this meeting. The following from

The Right Spirit':
in remarking upon the passage of Mr.
Montgomery's Kansas Bill in the House, the
Cleveland Plain Dealer says, " Lecompton
Democrats and Anti•Lecompton Democrats
are no more. There is no longer any such is•
sue. We are Popular Sovereignty Democrats
and can stand shoulder to should._r,togcther ;
and not only so, bat thousands and tens of
thousands of Republicans, formerly Jackson
Democrats, have abandoned the Congressional
interference doctrine and have fully endorsed
the Kansas Nebraska principle of letting the
people of the Territories regulate their own
domestic iustitututions in their own way.'
The Informal Meeting of the Senate.
An informal meeting of the senate was held last
evening, iu one of the committee rooms to hear
'.he question of the repeal of thi tonnage tax
discussed. Mr Hirst, City Solicitor, appeared on
behalf of the City of Philadelphia, and Theodore
Guylor, Esq , appeared for the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company. Tho City of Pittsburgh was
represented by the Board of Trade, and in their
oehaif a resolution was laid before thetneeting,
declining to appear by counsel to participate in
discuTstou which they regard as irregular and
unknown to logislation. Dr. liazzatn, one of the
Sone.tora from Allegheny, afterwards appear - e 1
is the champion of Pittsburg.
The meeting was organized by the appoint
ment of Judge Bell as Chairman. Judge Wil
kins opened the proceedings by defining his po
sitioa in relation to the tonnage tax. He stated
ilea( he represented a divided constituteney ; but
tie was under the impression that those repre
senting the weight of the commerce and bushes
of Allegheny county favored the repeal of the
Tonnage lax, although numbers might bo against
IL
Mr. Hirst spoke about an hour on behalf of
the City of Philadelphia. He stated that he corn
,meneed the examination of this question several
weeks ago, with prejudices against the removal
of this tax which his examination had entirely
destroyed. He statid one circumstance that
.will tend in a great measure to remove a false
impression which is generally entertained.
That is, that the Pennsylvania Railroad Compa
ny were willing, under the bill for the eale of
the main line, passed at the last session, to pay
$1,600,000 for the removal of this tonnage tax.
This condition they could rrt avail then:knives of
because of the decision of the Supreme Court;
and therefore It is held that, to obtain the release
now, the company should pay as much as they
were willing to pay one year ago.
Mr. Hirst showed the utter falsity of this no
tion. The Pennsylvania Railroad Company never
agreed to pay one oeut for the release of the ton
nage tax. The one million and a half addition
al price was purely and exclusively an equival.
ent for the reteaee from other State taxation, and
had no relation to the tonnage tax. A moment's
glance at the factsof-the case demonstrated

This aggregate was yearly increasing. So it
will be seen that the release from the payment
of $85,666 annually, would have been a sufficient
reason, withmt. looking further, for the Pennsyl
vania Railroad Cot pany to pay $75,000 annu
ally. It was intended se a consideration for
release from these taxes, and the tonnage tax
formed no part of the consideration. Its repeal
by that bill as unconditional and unrestricted.
That being a demonstrated fact, the argument
that, because the company were willing to pay
a million and a half for the repeal of the tonnago
tax, one year ago, therefore, they shall be com
pelled to pay it now, is a fallacy refuted by the
figures given by Mr. Hirst.
