SPEECH OF
HON. S. A. DOUGLASS.

In compliance with our promise we pre-
sent to our readers the speech of Hon. STE
PHEN A. DOUGLASS, Of Illinois. The ques-
ton before the House was upon q motion
providing for the payment Of the troops who
should be called into the service the same
as those of the regular army. Several mem
bers participated iu the discussion, some ol
whom denied the title of the United States
to the territory on the east bank of the Rio
Grande. Among the members Of the oppo-
sition was Mr.. Delano, from this State, who
declared that we were in war without be-
ing in the right. He denounced it as illegal,
unrighteous, and damnable. After Mr.. Del
ano had taken his seat, ...... ..-.
Mr.. DOUGLASS next took the floor. Sew
eral members proposed that the committee
rise, that he might proceed with his speech
in the moraing. He declined to avail him
self of their courtesy, as he had but few
remarks to make, and those principally in
reply to the gentlemen from Ohio, who
had Just taken his seat, Mr.. Delano. The
gentlemen from Ohio, (said Mr.. d. has
been so kind as to herald my advent before
my arrival, and announce that was about
to follow him in the debate. suppose that
he drew this inference from the fact that

|concldded that it was her brother whom h
referred to, and VINO he had supposed to b
his rival. She being somewhat mischiev
ous,, ,and perceiving him already jealous
determined to keep him in suspense for 6
few moments and then undeceive him.
She accordingly at first seemed trying tc
avoid his question, but he still persisting in
his demand, she asked him why he presum-
ed to trouble himself with matters that did
not concern him. ,. ...
''Thou shalt see,'' he exclaimed, and
drawing pistol from beneath the folds ol
his cloak, before she was aware of his in.
tention he leveled it and fired. Leoline
groaned and fell to the earth. The report
Of The pistol was heard in the palace, and
in moment he was clenched by d strong
arm and thrown TO the ground. The ball
had entered the young lady's side and from
the wound small crimson stream was
issuing She was Immediately carried to
the house and all assistance possible was
rendered, but it was unavailing-she ex-
pired in few hours, blessing her wretched
murderer. The feelings ofthe young man,
when he was informed of her never ceas-
ing fidelity to him, and that the man he had
seen by her side was no other than her
brother, cannot be described. He was TAX
en- to prison raving maniac, and though
his senses seem to have returned, it is still
plain to perceive by the wild glance of his
eye thathe is now laboring under the bit
terest remorse of conscience. Though he
is considered to justly merit the punishment
which awaits him; he is still looked upon
with pity by all who know the circumstan-
ces Of his fall.'' ........
"(t is truly sad affair."" said Delarron.
''and the young man merits the pity of all
but, it is also necessary that justice should
claim its victim"
Alfred replied that he was of the same
opinion, and that he was far from advoca-
ting the young mans cause farther than he
could in justice, when the bell rang for
supper, and they all repaired to the great
hall of the castle. After supper, Delarron
bowed to Alfred, arose and left the room.
Alfred still sat silent and thoughtful; he
wished to have a few more moments con-
versation with Liona, for he had resolved
to throw off all disguise and tell her his
whole heart, and if she returned his affec-
ton, to ask her of her father, if not, to
leave the castle forever. He accordingly
asked her if she would not like to walk in
the castle yard. To this she consented,
and they strolled from the castle. After a
few moments silence, he told her his feel
ings, and it resulted in full confession of
love and attachment from her-there did
each form VOWS which they determined
should be plighted at the alter.
