I shotild• have moved its , rejection at the first reading. But the bill before mei r for the two may he considered as one, does not come from that quarter. It comes from a free State, and un dor the administration of a Pre'sideut elected from a free Stpte; and, under that aspect of its origin, I deemed 1t right to hear what the memberemf the &go States hadtti„sayto it.— It wus , a proposition from tberownranks,.to give up half the Slavery Compromise of 1820, and if they chose to do so, I did-not see how Southern members could refuse to accept it. It was a free State question, and the members from the free States were in the majority and could do as .tliFYpltased. So I stood.tile9f, waiting, to see their lead, but with . out the slighest intention of being governed"by it. I had, my own convictions of right and duty, and meant to act upon them. I had come into po litical life upon that Compromise. I had stood upon it - above thirty years, and intended to stand upon it to the end, 'solitary and alone,' if need be.[Applanse and Laughter]—though preferring comp'any to solitude, and not doubt ing for an instant what the result was to be. In terms ns caustic and severe as they were -bumorous, Col. Benton then , proceeded to ro like the President and his - Secreraries for their constant interference with . the proceedings of Congress, nail their frequent attempts to con trol and give direction to the 'proceedings of boil' houses. Mr. B. said that the,Prosident's opinion could only be made known to Cong ress by.his own messages in writing: all other modes nre,not only unparliarnentary, but a breach of privilege of Congress. ...It is not bribery alone," said Col. B . "attempted upon a member which constitute; it In ( caeli of the privileges of this House. It is any attempt to operate upon a triemberlu vote, by any annajd oration of hope or feat"; favor or alfectien , prospect of reward or screed orpunishment.— This is perliamontarilaw—as old as English Parlinments, constantly maintarted by the British Muse of Commons." In support of this, Mr. B. referred to the celebrated arise which happened when Mr. Pox's India Bill was before the House of Commons, 'and when one of the lot:ils of bed chamber rope;rted that the King was rpposed to the kill, That ho wished it tlt4eated, and had staid that he would consider - mar-member- his - eneroy - w ho; - wou Id ,vote for it, "The House of Commons took fire," added Col. 8., "at this report, and he• mediately resolved: BEND. DARBY That to report any opinion, or pretended opinions of his Alajosty, upon bill depending in either llouse of Parliament, is a high crime and misdetneanor, derogatory to the honor of 'the crown, a breach of the fundamental priv lieges or Parliament, and subversive of the couttitution,of the country." , It is well thus to.refresh the memoriekof Presidents and Secretaries in regard to the ,rigitta wad .privileges of Congress,,and thus to teach Chem, their duty ; and BentOn has done the country a very great service in thus rebuking, in this apparently mild, but,rcally caustic-and scathing manlier, the constant in terference of the Executive in the doings of Congress. As to the President's secretaries, 111 r. Ben- . ton treated thetn, with Korn, mingled with rebuke ; and ; in the' language of Burke, when speaking of the mcddlesontienessuf Chancellor '-Tharlow, said he did rte , t,raro three jumps of a louse for them., But it was the Union, tbo Presidentint Organ, tbai treated with the moat annihilating contempt. ,De spoke orthe public printers, who get their daily bread (and that buttered on both sides) by our gaily print jing, These'•Ltlio publio pruners -ho said, :require the liomoortitic member's oif i thth Clouse, .under tbe.iU4taht linulty of puliticii duthia thin; to, give their adliesion,to every bill which they doll administration; and that iu every ohangoit may undergo, although more change aide than tbo'nh'on.

Ido not wish to see such times again, and therefore ant fhoinst reviving them by breaking up the settlement which quieted them. The Missouri Compromise of 1820 vtas..l‘; partitioning between the free and slave States of a greet province, tatting the character of a perpetual settlement, and classing with the two great compromises which gave us the or dinances of July 13, 1787,.and the Federal Constitution of September 17t,h, of the. same year.. There are three slavery compromises in our history, which connect themselves with the foundation and the preservation of this Union. First,' the territorial partition ordinance of 1787, , with its clause„forthe,rocovery of fugi.., five. sin ve , ; secondly, the . cotetnpora mobs constitutional recognition of slavery in the States which choose to have it, with the fuli• tive slave recovery clause in the same instru ment; thirdly, the Missouri partition lino of 1820, with the same Clause annexed for the recovery of fugitive slaves. All three of these compromises aro part and parcel of the same policy, and neither of - them l could have been formed without the other, nor either cif them without the fugitive slave recovery clause ad ded to it; Tim-'Constitution could not have been formed without-its recognition of-slavery ht the States which chose to have it, and the guaranteeing of the right to recover slaves fleeing into the free States. The Missouri controversy could not have been settled with out a partition of Louisiana between free and slave soil, and that partition could not have been made without the addition of' the same clause for the recovery of fugitive Slaves Thus all three Compromises are' settlements of existing questionS; and intended to be perpet: ' ual. They are all thre'e of equal moral valid• ity. The Constitutional compromise is guard ed by a higher obligation, in ' Minsequenee'of its incorporation in that instrument. but it no way differs from the other two' in the circum stances which induced it, the policy which guards it, or the consequences which would flow its abrogation. A proposition to destroy the sla'tzy compromises-in the Constitution would ho nn open proposition to break up the Union. The' attempt to abrogate the comprb edam; of 1787 and 1820 would bo 'virtual at tempts to destroy the harmony of the Union and propaft; It for dissolution. by destroying the confidence and affection in which It is founded."• , . The Missouri Compromise of 1820 is n eon ' tinuatioq of the ordinance of 1787, by- its. ex tension to the since acquired territory west of the Mississippi; and no way ditiering front it cithet-iu principle or detail. The ordinance of 1787 dificied the then territory:l)f the U. S. About equally bPtweeu the free , and slave 'States. The , Missouri . Compromise line did the,same by the additional territory, of the U. States ns it stood in 1820, and inloth cases it was done by act of Congress, and was thcrset.. tletnena of a ddliculti uht.h was to last foreve er. 1 cu,noider them both with their Ingitiv slave recovery clauses, and the similar clau s e iu ilic . oom;titution, ns part and parcel of the ,: samrtransaction—different articles in the iap.a general settlement. The anti.shivery clause lathe ordinance of 1787 could not haVe teen put in, as Was proved by its three year's rejection, withbut the fugitive SlaVi3 recovery clnuso ndtleil - to it: Tito 'Constitution could not have 'bee'it framed arithout the -recognit lOC ' of slavery in the States which choose it, and (he right of recovering slaves fleeing -to-the free States:' The Missouri controversy could not have beett Settled eicept by the prohibition of slaveryin the upper bele of the territory of Louisiana, , watt..that prohibition could bet have been' obtiiincd'wlthoue thp'right'to recover fu gitive slavesfrom the pa 4 mule free.' :Titus the throevnensurei are 'ono, and the ordinn . nbe of 17'87 father to the other two.

And how called upon? Not by the in. habitants, not by 'lvry one human being living cr expecting to live on therritory tb he af. footed, but on a motion of °egress; a silent balting,_creeping,firquintlng, impish motion, conceived in the dark, midwife(' in a committee teem, and sprung upon Con gressarid the country in the style in which Guy Fawkes intended to blow up the Parlia ment House, with his five hundred barrels of gunpowder hid in the cellar . under the wood. [Laughter.] My answer to, such a motion is to bo found in the whole volume of my polit ical life. I have stood upon the Missouri Com prondso for above thirty years, and mean to stand upon it to the end of my life; and in doing so shall not only ebt according to my own cherished convictions of duty, hut accord ing to the often declared convictions of the General Assembly of my own State. It is said that the measures of 1850 super seded this compromise of 1820. If so, why treat it now as if still existing, and therefore to be repealed by an exception, in order to get rid of it? If it was repealed In 1850, why do it over again in 1854? Wh,y kill the [lend? 'l3ut it was "riot superseded, ime"acknowledgeil and confirmed by every speaker in 1850 that refer'red to the subject, and by every net that mentioned it. This being a matter of fact, and proven by all sorts of testimony, parole, written and record, it has to be given up, though a test of political orthodoxy as long as it stood, and something else put in its' place'. Thereupon supersession was itself - I:44pm soiled by inconsistent—"out of the frying pan into tho fire." (Laughter.' Inconsistent signifies inability to stand together ; two things which cannel stand together from con and sisto. Not , what i; the fact with respect to the compro mige of 1820 and 1850? Gan they not stand together? And if not, why knock the one down that is already down? It is now four years sines the inability to stand together took effect, and how do the two sets of measures make out together at the end of this time ? Perfectly well. They are both on their feet standing both upright, and will stand so for ever, unless Congress knocks ono or the oilier of them down. This is a fact known to every body, and admitted by the bill itself ; for if the first is , incoostsfentowltlyhe second, and unable to stand/. why all this trouble to put it down? Why trip up the heels of the man al ready flat on his back on the group' I Then comes another reason that this compromise of 1820 is inoperative and void. If so, those who are against its operation should be con tent. It is id the very condition they wish it, useless, powerless, inactive, dead, and no bar to the progress of slavery to the North. Void is vacant, empty, nothing of it. Now if the 35 degrees 30,eeconds is inoperative and void, it is in the condition Of a ienile pullea drin rind the rails carried away, and the field left open fur the steak to enter. But tile fence is not pulled down yet. The line is not-yet in operative and v lid. It is an oxisting substen tire line, nlive and operating, and operating effectually to bar the progress of slavery to the North, and will continue so to operate until Congress shall stop its operation. Then comes the final reason—that there never was any such lino in thb world ; that it was uncon stitutional and, void ;, that it had no existence _Seem the beginning, and that, it must not be rbpealdd by a direbt act, for that would be to acknowledge its previous existeetee, and to nullify the Constitutional argument ; and what is more terrible, involve the authors of the doctrine in nu inconsifitenoy of their owtt,';nil thereby make themselves inoperative and voi'd. And this is tho analysis of the reasons for the Nebraska bill; that part which is to got rid, of Gar qompronaise of 1820, is untrue, I contradictory, suicidal and prepostereus. And why such a ferrago of nullities, incongruities, rid inconsistencies 7 Purely and 'simply to throw,uponpthers—upcin the Congrese of '5O and the innocent Constitution the of what the bill itself is doing—the blame of de 'greying the compromise of 1820, and with it destrOying all, confidence between the 'North and the South, and •arraying one-half the Union against the Other in deadly hostility.-- It is to be able to throw blatne. And whistle all. this hot-patch for?, It is to establish a principle, thyy say-s,the princ"ple of non-in• tervention," of "squatter eovreignty."

But this blase is not accidentally hero; it is to keep up the degma of the Con etitution in . te'rritories, but' only, there in re lation to slavery, and khdt for its admission not rejection. „ Three dogmas now afflict Ihe land, videlicet, squatter sovereignty, non-intervention, and no power in Congress to legislate , upon, Slavery in Territories. And this bill ati , serts the whole three, ;and beautifully illustrates the whole three by knocking each one on the head with the other, and trampling each under foot in its turn. Sir, the bill does deny squatter sovereignly ; and it doesint;rvene and it does ' legislate upon slavery in the territories, and for the proof of that see the bill and see it, as the lawyers say, pasaim, that is to say, here and there and everywhere. It is a bill \of as sumptibns and contradictions, assuming ,what is unfounded'nnireelitrailiedinO• what it as sumes, and balancing every affirmatitin by a 'negation. It is a tee-saw bill, but not the in nocent see sew which children play on n plank stuck through .n fence, but the sip and dovin game of politicians, played at the expense of the peace and harmony of the Union, and to, the sacrifice of ,alt business in Congress. It is on araphiholsgical bill, stuffed with mon strosities;' hobbled with contradictions and hadger:ed with a proviso. [Laughter.) At this paint Mr. Benton's lieur expired, and tho Chair Man's hammer fell, announcing that tact. There was.n brisk contest for the floor. The Chairman, Mr. Chandler, nssigned it to Mr: Weuttvorth, of Illinois, who said—'l understand that the gentleman from Missouri (Mr. Benton) wishes to speak but a few min- utes longer, and I am therefore desirous, with. the consent of the-Cinimittee, to yield him a portion of ray.time for that purpose.' Objec tions were here raised by a number of the Nebrnskaites, and a running fire ensued for sometime. Finally, Mr. VWentworth succeeded in procuring for Mr.. B. the opportunit t y of continuing his remarks. ltlr.' Betittin amplabology was thirpoint nt: which rwas stopped. • Amphibology is a cause for the rejection 'of bills, not only s hy Congress-but by the Presi dent, 7,11 ea carried to him 'for his approval. 'Gbh. Jackson rejected one for that cause, and It was less amphibological than this. It was the last night of the last day of his last ad ministration, And a quarter before midnight Congress bad sent. him a bill to, repeal the specie circular, arld juntugurate the paper_ money, of a thousand local banks as the cur rency of the Federal government. It was.an, object not to he avowed nor to be done in any direct or palpable manner. Paraphrases, eh: , cutillocution, ambinedterity, and ambiguity were all necessary to cover up the design, and it was piled on until it was unintelligible The President rend it and could make nothing ,of it; he sent It to his Attorney , General, who ,Was equally puzzled. , Ile ilitiieturned it with a message, to. the:. Senate, refusing to. sign, the bill for nmphibology. We should re ject this bill for the same cause, if for nothing else. llard.is the fate of party fealty, It, has to keep up with the over changing' mens uro.

This is the respthise of the South to this been tendered to it by the Northern members under a Northern President. It is the response of silence more emphatic than wards, and worthy of special note in this debate. It argues well for the harmony of the Union, and goes to show what in fact, has been often.seen, that the troubles Of the oountry come from uneasy politicians, its safety from the tranquil masses.

LILY NO 36 COLT IN TILL CAUCA'SOB6, We find the following interesting anecdote, illustratmg the value of a recent American invention, in an English paper of the 18th February: , In Daghestati a young Lesghl'an chief, being , severely wounded during one of the frequent r'izzies of the Russians, took refuge. in A rm.', tried, enkli,* in 'order to nriply bandages to his wounds.. While thus employed be was die-, covered by a party of twelve dismounted dm- • goons, who immediately gave chase on his 'taking flight. Being fleet of foot, for a short'. !bile he outran them, during which time such, of them as had their carbines loaded, fired et, him ineffectually. Having crossed one of the • ffeiible bridges mimeo in that country, and" which woe over a rapid torrent at the foot at, a mountain, the fugitive, finding himself una ble to proceed much further, and having time' to put his arms in order, stood at bay 'tinder projeCtind.rock.' Wilh yells of delight' and, uplifted sabres, the Russians approached the ' bridge. The foremost nearing him cried, • Yield, dog l" " Not whilst I have twelve• lives -at my girdle," cried the undau4ed, mountaineer. The Russians in the rear now, laughed loudly at the boast, but he in advance fell dead, pierced through and through by a bullet, nearly at the feet of the Lesghian.— The second soldier stumbled over his dead comrade, and es he rose received a shot which caused him to fall severely Wounded. tie: next seeing the same weapon, which , bad been twice discharged,- still pointsd,-ruelied but, to the surprise of the Russians, a third shot was fired at him ; untouched, however,. he was abdut to cut down the Ledghian, when a fourth discharge scattered his brains on the rocky parapet, and hie lifeless body tumbled Into the torrent iienerith. Three of the Rue., sinus had'fibtv fallen. " What a devil of a pistol is this, that speaks so often?" cried the survivors to each other. The Lesghian stilt stood firm, merely folding his polies° of sheep akin round his_ left arm, ready to receive' a blow, a precaution not unneeded, since now two Russians;, abreast, were on the point of -assailing. him._ Certain_of their _prey,_theise . 'advanced more cautiously than their predeces, sore. This time two deliberate shots brought them down right and left ; 'each tell piereed near the region of the•heart. The remaining soldiers were amazed. The Lesighiani, faint with loss of blood, and feeling his strength fast ebbing, now drew'forth anothe,pistoli tfi moment unobserved by the enemy, and rapid 4 ly fired three shots at the group -of Russians, some fifty yards distant at the other end'of the bridge. 'Owing to his sight being now dim, only one shot took effect, wounding one of the dragoolisin the shoulder. "Let us ili;" they cried ; " it is the Evil Spirit of the mountains ; be would kill our whole army." , Accordingly they precipitately fled, just as the Lesghinn sank down exhausted at the foot of the rock. At it distance they ventured•to look back. "It bath vanished in the mist," cried Clio 'superstitious Muscovites. The Lesghiau Chief was succored by some of his own people, and ere long recovered from his hurt, as did the woucded Russian; At his bridal feast, some four months after. the pistols which were a pair of Colt's revol ver's, and were a gift from an American her' Captain K—, to the youthful hero di the - Caucasus,' were handed round 'amid the general benedictions of the party. The bride is said even to have kissed them, shying, "Ab, my Deltemet, were all the brave Circassian* armed like thee, there would not be so malty tearful 'rnaidensand bereaved widows in Dag hostas) I" Tho Russian prisoner, neon reconciled by iitid treatment, to his, position, has .had the cruel horse Wit removed from his heel, and has often cleansed hnd loaded 'those identiced specimens of the fatal ,weapons, destined effect such a revolution in the warfare of Abe world.
