To tha Editor of The Chicago Tribune. Cincaco, Jan. 3—In a Inte Issue you copy: from the Washington Evening Star an ace count of © Brawls In Congress,” from which. Lout the following: It was in April, 180, when the compromise meaauren were under discussion, that tha ecene between Foote and Benton teok pince In the Bennte. Foota was inaking a speech and ninks ing ullusion to Reitton. Benton rose hastily from his seat, pushing bis chair violently from him, and, without remark or gesture, moved up the aisle toward Foote, who Waa about, twenty: feet distant. Lenton had no weapon in his hand or upon bis person. Foute, peresiving Benton's tmovemont, advanced to mect him, drawing and cocking it five-chatnbered revolver. Metnbers intervened, and order was rustored, Benton said a pistol had been brought to nasasinate im. Foote replied ho had only brought It far self. defense. Benton replied that was always tho protext of an assasl. Thils Is the account given by the man-hnnt- ers of thatday; but it is not true, “The compromise measures under discussion” was the FugillveSlave bill which had becn tacked on to that for the adinission of Call- fornia ns 2 State,—one of those compromises by which the South got all she could, at the time, by making promises, and afterwards, by brenking them, took more than she had orlg- nally claimed, By tlits “compromise” Call- fornia was to be permitted to enter the Union a8 a free State, provided she and ali other free States were given up as hunting grounds for, alave-catchers; and provided “all good eltizens” were required to assist said slave- catchers in securing their prey. President ‘Taylor and Col, Benton, both Southern men, opposed this compromise as an insult to Cal- fforntn in particular, and to the elt. tire North in general. Gov. Foote, of Mississippi, was oa very fiery com pronilser, and between hjin and Co), Benton was the tong-standing feud of the Fox and the Lion. ‘The Lion had forbidden the Fox to spenk to, or of, him; but Fox armed him- self, took the floor, and, In course of a sneer- ing speech, referred to * the gentleman from Missouri.” The words were but uttered when there was a scuflle, off to the right of the Speaker; and the scuffle soon caine to be a verfect hurly-burley of overturning. chairs, inen springlog over desks, crying" Order! Order!” ond, above all, the roar of the Liun, “Une hond me! Stand off, gentleman!” and sim- fiar ejaculations, roared fn’ the yoive of a Stentor, All eyes were turned in that direc- ton, and all members seemed anxious to gain the spot where Benton was roaring and struggling to get away from as many men as could get hold of lin, his cont tern back from lls shoulders, and he trying to leave it in the hands of his captors, ‘Inspite of all they could do he got into the spice running around the sents, and Made some progress toward the place where the Fox stoad,~-i, ¢, on tie edge of the iniddls aisle back near the door.
