He denied th r eny State sovereignty. Mr. Doolittle undertook to say that every de- © sion of the Supreme Court, aud every writer on the subject had invariably mantained the eovereignty of the States, The conversation among Senators, which had continued without intermission duriag the whole evening, became at this tine so loud that Mr. Doolittle refused to proceed until the Chair enforced oraer. Mr. 1). would tell the Senator from Indiana that his doctrine of centralization was jus’ as dangerous as that of secession Mr. Doolittle, in the course of his remarks, referred to the reconstruction acts of Congress, And expressed the opinion that bat Caref Jus- tice Chase joined with the rest of the Supreme Court and decided those acts unconstitutional, tbat he would have been nominated at New York and, more than that, wonld hav+ been elected: but be hesitated and suffered Congress to steal his jurisdiction from bim. Mr. Drake was one Senator who denied ihe Tight of the Supreme Court or any other tribu- _ e declare an act of Congress unconstitu- tional. Mr. Whyte would ask the Senator whether if the legal tender uct. the constitutionality of which was now pending in the Sapreme Court, was declared to be uncosstitutional. whether that decision should be respected. Mr. Drake.—Not at all, sir. Not for a mi ute, and Congress would have to come to his Position, or else tt would have to sweep away the men who aimed to override its decisions, Mr. Patterson (NH) asked Mr. Drake to Yield for a motion to adjourn. Mr. Drake said he was waiting tor that cock to crow of which the Senator trou Kentucky spoke, Mr. Davis,—You are the game cock of Mis- souri, Mr, Drake.—No, 1 am ouly adrake. (Langh- ter.) But when 1 attain to the years of my yenerable friend trom Kentucky, it I am as game a cock as he, I can cry cock a doodle doo. Mr. Patterson, of N.H., thought they were not doing themselves any good before the country by the exhibition which they were making. aud ibe best thing they could do was to go home. At 2.304. m., Mr. Norton moved to adjourn | remarking that it was getling very late. Several Senators respomded that i! was very j early; and the motion to adjourn was not agreed to. Mr. Davis aza:m took to floor. and spoke for five minutes. er Was the next S nd pat ins cood word for the nezro, who, although the equal of the Anglo-Saxon had in him that germ of development which, under ovr gemial institutions, would yet warm mv whar would be creditanie to hi asel! aud tous. At 4 a.m., Mr. Sommer moved to acjouru, which was disagreed to. Mr. Norton arzned that this suffrage prop- | Osition was dictated by the fell spurt of Fader- | shism which foucht in the earlier day- ot tne Kepublic with such flerceness, bat fiually had to go down before the sturdy democracy He replied at leng:h to the arguments used by Mr. Suinner the other day and continually ad- dressed himself to that Nenator, who <at fast asivey im bis arin cha At 5 o'clock, Mr. Norton was floor, and the sworivg of Mr. Morgau wae lay ma chair propped up against the wail, pro- duced a no. mbarmonious accompaniment to the voice of the speaker.

At S43 a.m., Mr. Norton adyanced toward Mr. Stewart and thundered im bis ear that be thought it would be fair for the Senator who had this measure tn charge to wake up; where. at Mr, Stewart roused humself witn’ a start from his peaceful slumber.
