Mr. Visson, (dem.) of Va., said this whole matter had been invested with an impo:tance quite unmerited. When the facts were developed there could be found no- thing but personal controversy. The House had only limited power over its members, and could not punish for “‘cisorderly bebavior’’ unless committed in oven ses- sicn, and could wot expel for an offence elsewhere. Mr. Eon, (nigger worshipper) of Pa., sald the House owed it to themselves for the protection of their riguts, and they owed it to the nation in the defence of a great constitetional poe. to pass the resolution of expul- sion, and much as be regretied the necessity he was con- strained to vote for its passage. Mr. Guineas, (nigger mecibivos) of Ohio, tendered to Mr. Brooks the whole sympathies of his heart, for he reco lected that, fifteen years ago, he himself stood here accused, but on a different charge, without being per. mitted to open his lips or a friend to utter a sentiment iu his behalf, He said Mr. Brooks had gatistied the law relative to hit assaultapd battery on Mr. Sumner, but had not atoned for the great crime committed against the constitution and the blow made against the sovereign rights ofthe people. He endorsed every word of Mr. Sumner’s speech. Mr. Casvamis.

Reeder prevailed; but in the platform adopted, aml in the organization effected at this Gonven- tion, there is nothing but the admission of Kansas as a free State, or a fight for it between the North and the South, as between Russia and Turkey. ‘The Buffalo General Northere Conven- ‘tion have appointed “a National Karsas Coin- emittee, to“ whose discretion the whole conduct of their sacred cause is intrusted,’”’ one member from every State, where the right sort of .man can be found, and five additional nembers re- siding in Chicago—they call for mevthly sub- scriptions. of money to this committee; and the sum of one hundred thousand dollars for each month is demanded; Northern emigrants are to go to Kansas through Iowa, &e. TheConvention also resolved “that the attempt to force slavery upon Kansas, must, at whatever cost, be de- feated, regardless of the action of the federal government "—* that the new Kansas bill just passed by tthe Senate is deceptive and fraudu- lent,” and that its enactmént into a law will “make of Kansas a slave State,” &e.,.dtc. Such is the solid substance of this Buffalo Con- yention-—a consolidation of all the Northern operations in behalf of “free Kansas” into the hands of a national and central committee, whose headquarters shall be Chicago, and the pouring of free State emigrants into Kansas as fast as volunteer contributions to the extent of a hun- dred thousand dollars a month will do the work. And let not the Southern men in Congress delude themselves with the idea that these monthly contri- butions cannot be raised. Under the tremendous Northern excitement of this Presidential struggle the money can be raised; and the mew can be raised to go, if they are paid and subsisted for a season. The sources of supply from the vast mul- titudes of the unemployed, or idle or restless free soilers, adventurers and loafers of the North, are inexhaustible. All that is wanted to raise a monthly army of a thousand Northern volunteers for Kansas, is the money; and this new move- ment for the sinews of war, unless speedily inter- cepted by the bill of Mr. Toombs, will probably result in war—civil war—not alone between the free State squatters of Kansas and the border uffians, in regular warlike fashion, upon the soil of Kansas, but ina war which may be carried by way of retaliation into Missouri, by an inva- sion from Kansas. The way to put an end to this perilous trouble is to provide at once by act of Congress for the admission of Kansas as aslave State—why mince the matter and quibble about it, Mr. Douglas’? —we repeat, as a slave State, according to the intent of the bill of Mr. Toombs. That bill of the Senate, now before the House, will do it. It places the requisite agents and power in the hands of Mr. President Pierce to secure a State convention in Kansas, and a State constitution for Kansus, recognising and protect ing the institution of Southern slavery. What more do the South want?) What more can thty atk? And now is the time to strike while the iron is hot. The bulk of the free State squatters have been driven out of Kansas by fire. sword, and terrorism, and ere they can retarn the work muet be done, or the South, to recover Kan- sas, may have to fight for It as Turks against Ruesians. Shall all that has been done by Mr. Douglas, Mr. Pierce, Gov. Shannon, Col. Sumner. Gen. Atchivon, Dr. Stringfellow, and the border rufiana, be lost? They have cleared the track; all that is now required to hold the ground in be- half of the South, and her rightful claim to a ba- lance of power in Congress, is to pass the bill of Mr. Toombs. Let the Southern democrats in the House, and the Southern Fillmore men, make this bill a vin qua non with the Northern supporters of Mr. Bu- chanan, and they can pass it. It is the test ques tion of Southern rights, under the compromises of the constitution. Let the bill be passed, and let Kansas come in asa slave State. The South Head and teil up, and with his legs well thrown out, heruns like the wind. Already ‘this new candidate from the Rocky Mountains has more newspapers at his back than Mr. Buchanan, and a party im his support truly formidable in men, means,tatent and enthusiasm. Whigsand demo- crates, Catholics and Puritans, natives and Ger- mans, Know Nothings and Irishmen, young and old, a: rallying, right and left, East and West, under the banner of Fremont. He and his army of supporters are fairly in fer the sweep- stakes, and they may win; but if they do not win, they will at least make a most terrible shaking among the old dry bones of the retten democracy, and will probably carry up Fremont to Congress the highest of the three candidates from the people. Mr. Buchanan, on the other hand, is already slackening in his gait very perceptibly. His pa- pers are deserting him here and there, and his most active drummers seem te be laboring in vain to get upa little enthusiasm. The stuff of ewhich popular enthusiasm is mage, however, isn’t in him, and cannot be brought out of him. Through his whole life he has been a cold and timid man, following in the wake of other men; while Fremont has been a veritable and notable pioneer, leading the way in the path of empire. and opening up hitherto unknown regions to sci- ence and Anglo-Saxon civilization. We don’t hear anything of late of Mr. Buchanan. Had the Presidential election taken place the day or the week after the Cincinnati Convention he would have hardly had a show of resistance; but he has been losing ground ever since. Even Captain Rynders, with his well-drilled Empire Club and his faithful little six-pounder, cam hardly make noise enough for the democratic candidate to be heard beyond the iron railings of the Park. Thus, then, they stand: Fremont ahead all over the North, Fillmore bristling up in the South, Buchanan losing ground. At this rate, where will the democracy be in November? Accordingly, they do’ These Paris fire- Markets. New Onteaws, July 9, 1856, Cotton easier. Sales for the last three days, 3,500 bales, at 103gc. a 10%Xc. for middling.

Our Coast Defencee—The Court of Claims: Opposition to Ir in Congress—The New Naval Bill, dc. These arc emphatically the days of section! squabbles and party demagoguism in oar national Legislature, and it is refreshing to one, compelled to watch and listen to the daily proceedings here, to see or hear of a movement of a truly national character. The United States possess three great maritime fronts—on the Atlan- Uo, on the Pacific, and on the Gulf of Mexico—and a line of 6,000 miles of sen coast to guard from the attacks of hostile Powers. To the proper defence of this great extent of sea coast the attention of Congress was called, a few days since, by the Hon. Lemuel Dale Evans, of Texas, who, Iam pleased to say, has turned his atten- tion to this great subject, so fraught with national in- terest; and no man in Congress, perhaps, is better suited to the giant task of arranging and submitting a proper and efficient system of coast defences than Judge Evans, and certain y no State in the Union is in a more exposed and detenceless condition than the Lone Star State of which be is a representative. The petition of William M. Storm was presented by Judge Evans, praying an appropriaton to aid him in test- ing the nautilus system of coast defence. In bringing this #ystem before the national Congress, the inventor claims that by the application of the new nautilus principle, in combination with elements of power already ap proved by military science, with the addition of others elaborated by himself by careful and repeated expori- mente—the whole to be governed at will by the electric wire—he has produced a class or series of mulitary engines which, if duly placed and managed, will render ovr harbors apd channels absolutely invaigerable to naval attacks. ‘The pautitus engines are, in effect, portable fortilles. tions, They may be prepared complete, and kept in reserve, in the forts and aseenale ashore; and when de- imanded for use, they may be easily transported, by sea or land, and rapidly located wherever the emergenc; rcquires their copcentration.
