1hs Wv Congress-Pr Progress Of the Campaign
The Days Do,ags.
nfR Senate scene was presented not of re-
quent occurrence, and which the actors have not
delntivey disposed of Colonel Davis, some
weeks SINCE presented TO that body the first flag
that waved over the halls or the Monezumas: and
to-day, he stated that he had received report from
Captain Roberts, OF the Mississippi Rifles calcu-
lated To give a history of that uHiurllng of the
stars and stripes. Mr.. Foote gave notice that at
future time he would do Justice TO distinguished
officer, in connection with the transaction, (Gen.
Quliman) as there existed contention as 10 who
hrst raised the flag. MIR, Davis denied that such
q contest was known 10 the higher officers; they
Were willing TO leave their fame impartial hsto
~. Mr.. Foote accused his colleague of presump-
ton; and, tor himself he should defend General
Quitman, against all odds. Mr. DAVIS would not
notice personalities; there was another means and
another place OF adjusting difficulties Mr. Fooe
declared himself ready 10 assume al personal res
possibilities. Mr. Foote is duelllst, and has
had dozen or two of shots al antagonists; be-
sides, he is in favor OF hanging abolitionists who
may stray into Mississippi. We trust that the
shonorablc" mode of settling difficulties may not
be resorted TO; is enough that the squabble has
occurred. Here let the farce terminate We be-
heve il was Sam Houston who once pocketed
challenge and cooly told the bearer of it, that he
was "coward"' and the late Hon. J. @ Adams,
on being challenged, acknowledged over his own
signature, that he was not gentleman" We
have not as yet heard whether either of them in
losi love ana regard OF decent
and honorable men.
But IN the House there was war. of another
kinda war OF politics, OF platforms and issues.
II was truly rehef, during this hot weather, to
have so pleasant breeze: Toombs, of Georgia,
with all his energy and eloquence, ''ardent as a
Southern sun could make him." tore up the demo-
cratic platform, throwing the tmbers on the heads
OF the locofocos, and causing fears that the ter
rlble work of slaughter was TO be continued. Mr.
Mcclellan, of Michigan. defended General Cass
from Andrew Stewards charges of quadruple pay,
and an oSer-reaching pecuniary propensity and
stripped the gentleman o, the arguments he had
manufactured for himself out of the proceedings
General Cass with reference to the soldiers
clothing. Mr., Cobb, of Georgia, held up what was
lett OF the democratic. platform, and spoke, as
loudly as the voice &c from the Toombs'' and as
earnestly. MIR. Hilliard and Mr.. Ashmun were
lnterrogated to the Philadelphia Conventions
opinion of the Wilmot proviso; and in return they
asked questions of Mr.. Cobb as to what the Bal
timore Convention thought about it. Mr. Tourney
obtained the floor, and had not proceeded far with
his speech when he yielded to an adjournment
Thus we have had lively times in both houses,
prognostlc OF what is to come. FELIX.
