Another Disgraceful Scene in the C.
8. Senate !
Senators Renton and Foote
On the 17th inst., Mr. Foote's proposition to
raise a committee of thirteen came up in order
and was discussed at length, various amendments
being offered. Mr. Benton opposed the proposi
tion to connect the admission of California with
any other question. After voting on several
amendments, Mr, Benton moved the amendment
heretofore suggested by him, covering fourteen
'different points, on each of which the connection
of California with other subjects is objected to,
and said he would ask a vote by yeas and nays
on each.
Another debate ensued upon a:question of or.
Mr. Cloy objected tO'lle aritentnent,'‘in the
ground that it was inconsistent with the proposi
'Eon is Which . the Sendte hod declared that it
'Would not instruct committee.
The Vice Vresideiit decided that inconsiite'ney
'might be a good teasOn for the tejrction of the
'amendment, but was not A ,Pliestion for the
'Chair to decide as a point oforder.
Mr. Clay appealed from this decision.
Mr. Benton addressed the Senate in sappOrk
f his amendments. His object was to show by
the votes of the Senate, on the several points
'Whir/site lead presented, that the fears of the
South had been groundless—that there was no
danger to the rights •of one section of the Union.
lie also incidentally all-tided, in no complimen
tary terms; to the Southern address, and those
who originated it.
Mr. Butler said that the Senator from Missouri
- was much mistaken if he supposed the Southern
people would be satisfied with votes upon truisms
—such votes were not to be safety valves by
-whirls to avert the dangers impending.
Mr. Foot arose to address the Senate.
1' fie Vice President reminded him that
the question before the Senate was upon
the appeal, and suggested that he con.
.fine himself to that point.
Mr. Foote declared his design to pro
ceed to order. He had endeavored to
avoid discussion, as the Senate would
bear Witness. He felt that the time had
tome When patriots should write for the
purpose of saving 'the republic from the
danger which Throated it. It was very
well known that he would not, after cir.
cumstances which had occurred, here
condescend to notice any thing coming'
from a certain quarter, (Benton.,) if it
were not that an unjustifiable aetrick had
been made upon a measure With Which'
himself and other gentlemen were iden.'
tified—the southern address--which.
many of them had been proud to sign.
The history of that address Was a glo
nous one, and would lire in the esteem:
of patriots in the future, when those
who impugned it should long have been
forgotten. Who was its author 1 The
senator from South Carolina,over whose
death the nation now mourned ; and who
was it that attempted to impugn that ad.
dress, and to designate those wilt) signed
it, as agitators 1 It was an individual
known as the oldest member of the Sen-
ate. Mr. Foote was proceeding with
some sarcastic and pungent remarks,
evi-1,n! , :. in allusion to Mr. Benton, but
had said nothing sufficiently open and
offensive to justify the chair in calling
Lim to order, when Mr. Benton rose,
much agitated, and throwing his chair
from him, proceeded by the narrow pas
sage outside of the bar, towards Mr.
Foote's seat, which is on the outside
row of scats, near the main entrance to
the Senate.
Mr. Dodge of lowa, and Mr. Dodge of
Wisconsin, and others, apprehending a
collision between Mr. Benton and Mr.
Foote, endeavored to detain the former
from moving from his seat. Overcom-,
ing all resistance, he continued towards
Mr. Foote, who leaving his place, step•
ped down the main aisle, and took a po
sition in the area just in front of the Sere'
geant-at-Arms' scat, at the right of the
Vice President, at the same time draw
ing a pistol from his bosom and cocking
it.
The scene which ensued is IridesCri.
bablo.
Loud calls for the Sergeant•at-APfns
were made, and cries of .order!" re
sounded from all sides of the chamber.
Many persons rushed from the Geller
les, end out of the chamber, in appre-
hension of a general melee,
Severn! Senators surrounded Mr.
Fcote, among whom was Mr. Dickinson
who, securing the pistol, locked it up in
his desk.
Mr. Benton in the meantime was
struggling in the hands of his friends,
Who were endeavoring to prevent him
frtint reaching Mr. Foote. While thus
pinioned as it were, and yet almost suc
cessfully resisting the efforts of those
who held him. Mr. Benton boldly denoun
ced Mr. Foote as an assas:•in, who had
thus dared to bring a pistol in the Sen
ate to murder him. He said, "1 have no
atrms—exatnine me-1 carry nothing of
the kind—stand out of his way, and let
the scoundrel and assassin fire."
In tittering this sentence, Mr. Benton
threw off• from either side, those who
held him—tore open his vest, and invi•
ted the fire of his antagonist.
Mr. Foote, in the meantime, was re
strained from advancing towards Mr.
Benton.
The Vice President, after repeated
and vigorous efforts, succeeded in resto
ring a comparative state of quiet.
Mr. Benton and Mr. Foote having re
sumed their respective seats,
Mr. Foote rose and inquired if he could
proceed to order.
Mr. Benton (inn very loud tone and
much excited) damanded that the Sen
ate shall take cognisance of the fact that
a pistol had been brought here to assas
sinate him.
---
Mr. Foote explained, he Lind no inren ,
tion to attack anybody. Ilis Whole
course had been that of the defensive.
Fie had been informed that an attack
upon him had been intimated. Suppo
sing, when the Senator from Missouri
advanced towards him, that he was ar
med and designed to attack him, he
had himself advanced to the centre of
the chamber, in order to he in a position
where he could meet Mr. Benton, in the
main aisle, upon equal terms.
Mr. Benton protested against an in
timation that he carried arms. Ile nev
er did so.
The Vice President requested Mr.
Foote to take his seat until it could be
ascertained what course was proper for
the Chair to pursue.
' Mr. Hale regretted the necessity
which seemed to impose itself upon
one of the youngest members of the
Senate ; but if no one else moved in the
premises, he should deem himself un
worthy of his seat, if he could let such
a transaction as hadjust !been WitnessiOd,
go out to the country without investi
omen,. The Senate owed such course
to itself.
Mr. Foote, (in his seat.) I court it.
Mr. Borland said he had apprehended
no danger. and instead of the matter be
ing a serious affair to be investiga'tecl•,
he thought it one of which the Senate
shouli , be ashamed, and should any as
little about as possible.
Mr. Foote expressed his assent to the
proposition for investigation, but sol
emnly protested that he had only armed
himself in View of a premeditated attack,
against which ho had been warned.
- Mr. Dodge, of 11 isconsin, thought a
court of investigation should be appoin
ted. He stated that he had known Mr.
Benton thirty-five years, and never knew
him to carry arms.
Mr. Benton, (in his seat, still much
agitated,) never! nev er!
Mr. DO'dge moved that a committee of
seven be appointed to investigate the
subject. It was a duty to the Senate
and the country. Mr. Clay expressed
the hope that Mr. Benton and Mr. Foote
would go before a magistrate, or else in
the presence of the Senate, pledge them
selVes not to commit a breach of the
peace, in the further prosecution of this
Mr. Benton-1 have done mulling to
authorise a charge of intention to com•
mit a breach of the pease, and I will rot
its jail before I give a promise by which
I adinit such n thing—(even by implica
tion.) I carry no arms, sir, and it's ly
ing and Cowardly to insinuate any thing
of the kind against me,
Mr: Cloy said his suggtstion had no
reference to the past, but to the future.
Mr. Foote said he was a constitution•
loving ; and law-abiding man. He only
wore arms when he had reason to believe
he was in danger of being attacked.—
He prefercd another methOd of settling
difficulties, and had always left the door
inside open ; in order to avoid the neces
sity for any other mode of settlement
than referred to. He declared that he
had no design of proceeding fUrther in
the immediate controversy which had
occurred, but intimated that as a man of
honor, he felt bound to take the proceed•
ings elsewhere.
Mr. Benton greeted the last remark
walla contemptuous laugh—loud enough
to be heard throughout the chamber.
Alter some further debate, a motion
to appoint a committee was agreed to,
and before any further action was had,
the Senate adjourned.
To Prevent the Potatoe Rot.
We Were informed a few days since
by our friend Hugh Hamilton of West
Middletown, that of between one and
two hundred bushels of Potatoes which
he raised last season, not a dozen have
rotted: He states that having furrowed
the ground and dropped the seed pota.;
toes in the usual manner, he covered
them well with coal ashes ' end the ashes
ti
with the natural earth, ad that he never
raised finer potatoes, while all his neigh-
bors who purstied the old mode, lost
nearly all their crop, by the rot.
James Patterson, Esq. ; "Patterson's
Mille t " to whom we mentioned the above
fact, assured us that he tried a similar
experiment last year, with complete suc ,
cess. We hope our farmers will adopt
this plan, at least to a sufficient extent
to test its efficacy, and note the result.—

MILLIONS OF PIGEONS ROOSTING.—Let
tars from Indiana complain that some of
the pigeon roosts coVer the forests for
miles, destroying the timber: A letter
from Laurel says: "I am completely
worn down. The pigeons are roosting
all through the woods: Our neighbors
and ourselves have, for several nights,
bad to build large fires and keep up re
ports of fire arms to scare them oft
While I write, within a quarter of a mile
there are 30 guns firing.
The pigeons come in such large quan
tities as to destroy a great deal of tim
ber, break limbs off large trees, and
even tear up some by the roots. The
woods are covered with dead pigeons,
and the hogs are getting fat on them.—
Our old friend Hendrick killed 50 at
four shots.
FOREIGN NEWS.
The steamer AMerica, with two weeks later
news from Europe arri”ed at Italifax on Friday
last. The following are the most important
items of news :
Fr.oun..-11altimore and Philadelphia flour has
advanced one chilling per bbl, the former being
quoted at 22. i the latter at 24a, 6d. per bbl.
Western Canal Flour 18s. and 21s. OH Soar
20s. per libl.
Indian Corn Meal 12s. and 13s. pet bby., thini.
innl.
Wheat 4s. 31. and Bs. par 70 ibs. The mar•
ket eloies quietly.
Recent advices from Constantinople state that
preparations wetc being made to conduct Kos
suth and the other Hungarian refugees to KO
tahiah, in Asia Minor, where they are is be
confined, it is said, for five years.
The return of the Pope to Rome was confi
dently announced to take place or. the Gth inst.
FRANCE.
At paris, although there is increased
excitement and greater bitterness be
tween conflicting parties, the only mar
ked events of the fortnight have been :
First—The revolt of one of the regi
ments, Which the government has not
succeeded in quelling. Second—A pop
ular demonstration, in a small way
against Louis Napoleon as he passed
through the streets.
Perhaps the most significant event in
the Legislative Assembly was the prop
osition by M. de La Rochejaquelin, a
friend of the President's, to the effect
that on the first Sunday in June, the na
tion should be called upon to pronounce
definitely on the form of government
which it should choose to select— that
every elector should be called upon to
inscribe on his ballot, monarchy or re
public—that if a republic should acquire
the majority, it should be proclaimed in
the Chamber by the President of the Re
public; and if the monarchy obtained
the majority, it should be proclaimed by
the President of the Assembly. This
remarkable proposal was received in sol
emn silence by the majority, and by de
cisive sneers from the Mountain ; but at
length the proposal was negatived, it
having fallen to the ground in conse
quence of not being seconded, and the
previous question was immediately vo
ted unanimously.
The members of the Mountain recei
ved the announcement with a cry of
"Five la Republique." It is said that
the President of the Republic is so deep
ly in debt, that nothing but the posses
sion of the imperial crown can extricate
him, and that he is at present engaged
in negotiations with Russia for the pur
pose of possessing that, to him, now
necessary protection. The government
are perseveringly employed in intro
ducing their measures of coercion, in
which the majority of the Assembly sup
port them.
The Parisian correspondent of the
London Standard, of a late date, says
that the Government is said to have re
ceived despatches from Germany, which
lead to the belief that a collision be
tween Austria and Russia is almost un
avoidable. The language used by both
powers is partaking more and more of
a hostile character.
Intertsting from New Mexico.
Sr Louis, April 18,
By the arrival here, yesterday, of a
geetleman from New Mexico, we have
received dates from Los Vegas to the
6th of March;
Indian depredations in tltut cobntrY
still continue. The Americans are liv
ing in constant dread and fear, and the
savages are daily becoming more dar
ing.
The writer says a runner, sent by
party of buffalo hunters, arrived at Los
Vegas a few days before he left. The
hunters had encountered a body of Ap
ache Indians, and an engag ement ensued
between them. Two of the hunters
were killed and three or four badly in
jured. The Indians carried off all their
animals, and at the time of the runner's
departure, nearly all the ammunition of
the hunters was exhausted.
The commander at this place Was cal=
led upon to order out a company of mil
itary to protect the Hunters, and render
them necessary assistance. The Apa
ches, satisfied with their booty, had re
treated.
A few days since, three Mexicans
were killed by the Indians at Vernal
Springs, on the road from Los Vegas to
Santa Fe.
Great complaints are made that suffi
cient precaution is not observed by Col
onel Monroe in granting license to tra
ders—Many having been in the habit of
selling arms and ammunition to the hos
tile Indians:
Allegheny City Strip.
The district court of Allegheny coun
ty, on Monday lust, decided that the city
of Allegheny shall pay, beside the
amount of her scrip issued, an addition.
al 20 per cent. penalty, agreeably to the
act of the 12th April, 1828, prohibiting
the circulation of small notes under the
denomination of five dollars. 'rhe case
was a suit brought against the corpora
tion by Samuel M'Clurkan Sc Co., to re
cover the penalty on a certain amount
of scrip held by them. The defence
was a denial that the corpoeration had
issued and circulated the notes declared
upon ; and on the trial of this issue, it
appeared that the notes were issued by
the city treasurer, in pursuance of an
ordinance of the city councils; and
therefore the following question was re
served by the Court, that is to say, "Can
the Select or Common Councils of the
city of Allegheny, a municipal corpora
tion, subject their constituents to the
penalty cf the act of 12th April, 1828,
concerning small notes, &c., by creating
a circulating medium of stnall notes,
contrary to the provisionsof that law!"
His honor, Judge Lowrie, deliVered a
very able opinion in the case, giVing
judgment for the plaintiffs, for the,
amount of the notes, together With the:
interest nt the rate of 20 per tent. per
annum.
