itealidently look for the "sober sewed thoughti" to resume
its sway, and in the end the great, and only ndiloaal patty
of the country, present as unbroken a front to the enemy as
it did when it achieved the triumph of populareovereigntyl
in the territories by the passage of the Kaniew Nebraska
bill. The cardinal prindiple of that great measure is that
the people of • territory, like those of a state, shall regu
late their own affairs in their own way—sutdiet always to
the restraints of law and of precedent. Attd this is tide
doctrine of the message. This is the principhil upon which
the President asks that Kansas shall come In under the
Constitution framed at Leoulapton. That Conatitution,"is
the President clearly shows, is the result of several legal
acts, lielind which neither the Flecutive not Congress
have any right to go. These legal acts, upon which rests
its legitimacy, are predicated upon the pewees conferred
, upon the people of Kansas by the Nebraska bill. The
author of that bill, Ildr. Donates, in discussing its provis
oes, July 24, 11156, said, "All power which it,is competeol
for Congrets to cotter upon the territorial legislature, ip
conferred by thin act;" and hence it follows, as • Disturb
sequence, that no enabling act was necessary' to enable the
legislature of the territory of Yapese to mill • convention
to frame • Constitution preparatory to admission as •
State. That power was eooferred upon the Legislature by
that set; and the Legislature exercised it. Oar republican
friends, however, tell us that the Legislature was not a
legal body—that it was steered by fraud—and therefore
its acts are not binding. This assertion—for it is but
assertion—may be a good reason why republicans should
vote against the admission Kansas now, but it seems to
us that it ought fd" have no weight with Democrats. Tb
charge that the legislature, which aathoriaeil the calling
the Convention which framed the Lecomptoo Constitutiab
was not a legal body, is only on a par with, and is in faei
one of the same brood of "shrieks" against which the De
mocracy achieved the triumph of 1856—and hence it ought
to have no terrors for Democrats. And it has noue ! The
Democratic party believe and know that the territorial
legislature of Kansas wee a legal body It possessed, as
Mr. thirotas asserted, "all the - powers" which it wet com
petent for Congress to confer upon It, and among those
powers was the right to call a convention to frame a Con
stitution. This right it exercised on the 19th day of Feb-,
ruary, 1857, by passing a law for the election of delegates,
itc. AC., This law, thus passed, was pronounced bs Sono
tut DOUGLAS in his Springfield speech, July 12, "to be
just and fair in all its objects any purposes"—and that
"there was every reason% believe it would he fairly later-
Kited and impartially executed." And to far as the proper
i-often were coneerned, it was "fairly interpreted and im
partially executed ;" but the enemies of the Democratic
party in Kansas—the men who were determined never to
recognise the legality of the territorial legislature, and the
authority of the Federal officers in that territory—refused tii'
vote. In vain did Goy. WeLitta urge them to do so,
oromisiog the protection of the federal troops —in rain did
he tell them that "those who abstain from the ozonise of
the right of %drags authorise those who do vote to act
for them"—that "the absentees are as much bound, under
the law and the Constitution by the act of the maJonty as
those who do vote"—to vain, me say, did Gov. Walker call
tffe attention of the people of Kansas to the.e well known
principles—they refused to vote—because, as the President
says, "they determined to Still resist the authority of Con
gress" and, "ai all barcamls to adhere to their revolution
ary organisation, and defeat the establishment of any
other constitution than that which they bad [Awned at
Topeka." They therefore allowed the election for dele
gates to the Convention to pass by default—when, sa has
been acknOwledged by the Kansas Herold to/ Pnrettrio.—
their organ—lf they had "coussifted their best intersiesi in- .
stead of standing'be etiquette, they would bare 'Filteb in'
ee id
and elected every delegate to the Constitutional Co yen- ,
don." From these facts the reader will see at on that
the Constitution of Kansas emanated from a legal btly—
that It was a legal body that could have been elected by
the "free state" men, but they refused to exercisd that
power—and having so refused, they are now, by their own
acts, °sloped hem complaint. This is the view of the
President, and it is also the view of every man who does
ant desire as+tation for the sake of agitation. That the
Conventieracted unwisely in not submitting the entire
instrument to the people, we believe ; but that it wad cam
piiant to submit, or not submit, or submit a part of it, as
was done, we have abundant precedent for knowing. Bet
our article is already-long—and we will only add, for the
information of those ikho think themselves wiser than the
President and his Cabinet, that the Democratic party has
been deserted by false friends before—it has been assailed
by open enemies —but—irevill lima! Kansas 1. mooing in

far from it, alter Mr. Olin, of Girard, had spoken against
the resolution, claiming among other things, that there
was no neoesaity of its passage, as se es* doubted ens
democracy, though he disagreed with mi in our support of
thp President's policy is regard to Kansas—we arum and
said that the haws matter was the question at
lieu—
that it had been obarged that In supporting that poliaT
we did sot reflect the wishes of the party fit the Oviatlr
and that then was the time to ascertain the fact. "IC,
said we, "the Naerosr has not reflected the views of the
party in regard to this question, it is time the lilacs should
know it, and this is the body to inform him of it. On
other hid, if be ban relleeted its views, It !aft,' to him,
in view of the doubt east upon hint, that the foot should
be proclaimed." These were almost oar exact woods—for
tee truth of which we appeal to every member of that
body. We shall waste no more words mile the qesstios,
bat we again proeoenee ths - paragrepll la the Guam* fuss
in detail, false in spirit, aad false la eseesce!

The New York Timm publishes the result of
an interview between the editor and the Hoa.
HORACZ 8. ELDILIDOZ I who recently arrived In
New York, direct from the Great Belt bake.
This gentleman is said to hold a prominent posi
tion among the Mormons, having beaus a eon•
vert to the faith twenty years ago, and followed
them through all-their changes of fortune. Of
course he gives the . Mormon view of things, and
represents the citizens of Utah as "an Watkins
honest, honorable coommanity." He declares
that " they hairs never had any didioulty with
United State. Arms who were content to per.
form their duties, and refrain from interference
with the Church." • No man Ms greater rever
ence for the Constitution or is more earnest in
its defence than B/RIGRAIS Youwo.
In givins Mr. Et na'Dal's view of the pres
ent guns, the Times says:
Mr. E was in no way troubled at the purport
of au increased army going oat to Utah in the
Eipiing. If the troops forced their way into the
valley, be thought that a blood/ accosts, would
have to be rendered. The Mormons as a
were peseeable, and had no disposition to = 1. 4
it could be avoided; but they prefrerred an hon
orable war, if forced upon them, to a dishonorable
peace. The resources i n Utah for sustaining the
people would not.probably be considered great.
by any other people; but as they bad fought
through the cricket and grasehoppee wan, whe n
they had to dig roots and boil down cow hides,
and eat them after they had consumed the an
imal, they thought they could live where others
would starve, and were quite willing to try it.
Mr. Eldridge denies the chargges against the
Mormons for encouraging the Indians to steal
property and murder emigrants. The course of
Gov. Young, he says, has been to civilise the
savages—not to encourage their barbarism. Dr.
Hurt might tell his story of his diFtet and hair
breadth escapes; but if the "boys' had wanted
to *jun him they could have easily have done
so. His story looks to Mormon eyes as if it
was prepared to be read in the States.
As to the "peculiar instntion " our visitor was
very modest saying only that it worked well
*sough, and flat .peana prevailed in Utah.
The Mormons have settlements all over the
Territory, even as far South as Santa Clan and
Rio Virgin. Mr. Eldridge thought the indus
try of the people should be an offset to the nu.
merous charges against them. They could not
do so much labor and perform so much wicked
ness at once.
A published statement, to the effect that ma.
ny al the animals belonging to the ambulate
attached to the expedition had been stampeded by
the Mations, is not absolutely eontradicted; but
it is added that, if the animals were driven off,
uerery one of them will be taken care of and
aocrnusted for if peace u broisghe rowed,
Eldridge bad no personal knowledge of the sit
uation of the Expedition. Ile knew the place
well, where they were tab*, and be felt an
stared that if the weather had been se %nue this
winter as is the bust, it valid have been a ad
time with them•
In regard to the rumored proposal to arrange
eximan digit:skies by a sale of Norma peopar-
ty in Utah to the Government ) to-belellowei bp

Mr. Harris of Mb& WI moved the previous
question up* the introdnetioa of his resolutions
to refkr the Losompton Coastitatioe to a Select
Oommitte of thirties ; mid while various OW
does and ploposhioes were being made to the
Home, Kr. Grow (pep.) of Peassylvasis, came
over to the )emus side of the Rouse and
made Nose remark to the Chair, which upon
beiag_ltemal by lir. Kidat t he noterked is
that if be (Grow) wasted to make a motion he
liadletier go to his we side of the Bosse. Mr.
Grow is mid to bmwmplied, that be would make

a slavadriver's w eireeked over his head, or
moinethisg to that High worth followed,
sad they elisehedi wiles Mr.' Davie ought hold
of Iteitt, and he was squad from Mr Grow
after two or three blows had bees given by the
former, which hit his friend Davis, instead of
Grow.
The ezeitoment biome intense, and members
fkinh all pais of the hones rush.* to the spot.
fro SpasWs hammer came down loud and fre
quent, but to Very pule' purpose. Mr. liarkidab)
of Miss. rushed ut as a peacemaker and same
out with the loss of his wig and a black eye—
charged the blow upon Mr. Washburn, who de
nied it. "Parson Lomejoy" was "pitched into"
by somebody (sansei learn who,) sea he took
asmilant up. in his ems and carried him to
a seat and put him earifally in it. Some thirty
or forty member,wtithpated hi the melee, and
from the astosii few bruised Wes .Or
block fro, it is remarked to day that adetiania"
is not one of the "miasma," in which the bag'
matt see well educated. I hear that Mr. Kam
takes upon himself most of the blame, and it is
highly probable that no "affair of honor" is to
Wee ant of this- grand spectacular (3oagression
el dream
On Monday the House meet at 12, when with,
out debate a vote will be taken upon the resolu
tions of Mr. Harris ; and from present appear ,
sues I think the resolution will pus; and if it
does, the Lsoompton Constitution is probably
oonsigned to t h e iamb of the Copulate for this
session., Nothing like bleeding Kansas for
"Republiean" capital---sad there are fishing
Democrats enough, I fear, to vote with the! on
Monday, to place this matter beyond redemption
for the present.
Jf the flume should pass a bill admitting
Kansas wise the Leoompion Constitution, 1 be
lieve the House would have the power to act
upon mid bill; consequently It may oome before
that body in gush a shape, independent of any
action by any committee. Still, the vote on
Monday will be regarded as a teat—though not
justly, I oeusider--which decides the strength of
the Administration party in Congress.—N. Y.
News.
That law in Congress.
Just before 2 o'clock the House was thrown
laic) a violent excitement, and a fearful scene of
confusion. It appears teat while Mr. Gow, of
Pa. was walking down the aisle on the Democratic
side of the hell; Mr. Seitt, of S. C., and a friend
approached him, and a alight scrabble ensued.
Seim struck Grow, but the parties were separa
ted by tticir Mesas, thily then exchanged words
in au excited and menacing manner. KAU again
dash a blow at Grow, thelatter knocking him
down. Crowds of their repaid,. friends rushed
to the rescue: The various members on each
side engaged in the fight in the area fronting
the clerk's desk. Wasliburne, of Illinois, was
conspicuous among the Republicans, dealing
heavy blows. The Speaker loudly called on the
Seargeaut-at-Arms to interfere. That functioe
ary, carrying his mace of Ace, together with
his assistants, hurried to the scene, and crowded
into the thickest of the light, in which at
toast a donee members were engaged. Some
minutes elapsed before the truly fearful contest
was quieted ' the members having reluctantly
iretarned to their seats when there was dead calm
la somparison with the seen just enacted.
Grow objected to Mr Quitman making tny
remarks. Seitt maid—lf_you are goingg to ob
ject, return to your own side of the House.—
Grow responded that this is a free hall, and ev
r_y man her a- right to be where he pleases..
K.dU came go to Grow, and said be wanted to
how what he melit by such an answer as that.
Grow replied that he meant just what he said—
ekes this was a free tall, and a man has a right
to be 'where, he pleases Keitt, taking Grow - by
tke thrust, said—l will show you. You know
you are a, damned MA Republican puppy!
Gieknieskcid his hand up, saying, I shall wen
plmscneh a kilsee in the hall as please, and no
u er
driver shall meek his whip over me!
• Kegs then again grabbed Grow by the throat;
Grow knocked his End away whin Keitt came at
him. Grow then knocked him down. The fight
tookfleaeat twenty minutes Co two o'clock this
morning.
HOusa.—Mr. Keit rose to a personal explana
tion, saying that the Mouse would remember
that its roeeedrap during the session of Friday
w~irb 111 upon in as unpleasant manner.
