TIE CLOSE OF THE SESSION.
ROWS IN rlIr SENATE AND uousE
Important Measures Aclcd On.

The report Of the proceedings OF the close OF
the second Sc sion Of the Thirlie,h Congress, is
replete with interest, though it will be seen that
thfee OF those mortifyng scenes Of violence have
ngain desccra,ed the floor Of Congress und that
blood has been split within tho hals OF legislation.
~ difficulty, il seems, lirst occurred between
MIR: GldiIngs, Of Ohio, aud Mr.. Meade, of W.,
which, although causing sumo Disturbance, did
no! proceed 10 personal violence. This origina-
ted we believe, in reference to The territorial
question and tho Wilmot proviso. The second
row occurred at very late hour, helween 10.
bert w. Johnson, Of Arkansas, Orlando I}.
Fckln, Of Ohio, and William nj. Inpe, of AL
ALBANIA. AIR. Ficklinl called Mr.. Johnsou a
puppy" when he seems TO have been Jointly
attacked by Mr.. johnson aud Mr.. Inge, lbs
latter striking him with a cane, which drew
blood Gonl,ih head with which, i. came in con-
tact. The House, shortly after. adjourned, us
order could no longer be preserved
The Senate was also dsgraced by a scone Of
somewhat the sumo character, between Mr..
Cameron, of Psnnsy lvuna, and Mr.. Fooie, Of
hlississ'ppi-the latter receiving, blow in his
face from the former, us a relor. to sumo ollcu-
sivc personal remarks. b

The Slavery Question.

The Wing ratification meeting, held in Phila.
delphia to ratify the nominations Of the late
State Convention, passed the following resolu
ton on the Territorial question:
ResO!red, That the progress of human liberty
makes more and more evident the propriety OF
the great principle proclaimed at the asst polit-
cal canvass, viz: That no extension of the in
stitutiOn of slavery can be sanctioned by the
Government of Republican America; and while
il is the solemn conviction Of this meeting that
the provisions of the Constitution Of the Uni
ted States with regard TO slavery are binding on
all good citizens, it is no less the purpose OF
this meeting to make open profession Of its de-
termined hostility 10 the extension of slavery
into any tentory acquired by the National Gov-
eminent. And as we have called en- Pennsyl-
vanians 10 rally TO the support of their great
pecuniary interests, so do we invoke the action
Of our fellow citizens, by all the high moral
principles by which they are distirgu shed, TO
vindicste the sanctity Of human rights.
