Col. R. w. Johnson's speech on the slavery
 Question.
N BYRNE. Bishap
 of Little Rock.


 We regret that we could no, get into this weeks paper the speech of our Representative in Congress on this all absorbing topic. It s short, very much to the point, and has all the pIainnesI and force which so distinSIy characterizes what he uters.-- We find, in the hennsylvanian. The following notice of it, from its Washington correspondent:
 "The attack on Mir, Stanley made yesterday by the fiery menbet ltcIn Arkansas Mir Johnson, was he principal sRbect coayersed last night in the public places abont Washington. IL seems 10 be taken for granted that J 's purpose was 10 "get a fight out of" $. To tell the truth. his remarks were far more personal derogatory. bitter. and denunca. tory than 1 ever before heard spoken in the Hall by one sonthein gentleman of another. The rasping which Mr Stanly himself gave PaIsou Tilliard some monlhs ago, was mere child's play 10 the cathaul- ing which J gave him in return. Johnson, who is a gentleman of hne abilities. is the nephew of Col Richard NJ. Johnson, and his Arkansas training upon such stock. renders it any thing bat amusing to get intoa personal affair with him. Though he is quite old member this s the first oec asion which he has manifested temper in the HAli.- His harsh remarks were the result of the sHset of Mir Stshley's singular coarse"
 We will publish the speech next week.

THE coMPRoM,sr.

Nothing decisive has bsea enacted la relation to the Ofnaibus Bill /" up to oar latest dates (l7Ih ult) from Washington. A correspondent at the capitol. of that d4ts say. to us, 1t Is the imprss- sion here. at this moment, that the bill will be magnificent falIurc. The southern men are be- coming, every day, more and more united against it. On Thursday last the greatest excitement pre- vailed In the House upon an amendment, offered by Mir. STANTON, of Tsnn-, to the amendment of Mr. GREEN, adopting the MissOuri eomPromise Iins.-- Mir. STASros's was to the following effset;
 "Propided That It shall be no obstacle to the ad- mission iutO the Union of aRy State which msy he realer be formed cut of the territory lying of the parallel sf latitude oi S6o sV, that tho stitution of said State may authorize establish African slavery thereia."
 This was lost by vote of yeas 7s, nays s9. Not a single northern whig voted for It. and it sllered as an uniuteatiOnal expression the part of lhs majority, that no State acknowledging sla- very shalI be admitted under any circumstances. The question will again come uP on Monday, when it is expected that much larger majority will be against 1t. It has had good effect, at Ieastthat of opening ths eyes of luke- warm southern mem- bars as tO their condition, and bringing them a sense of their own weakness unless they firmly united.'
 Our correspondent seems to have received the im- presson, and expresses a regret that we have gone far u favor of the bill presented by the commit tee of thirteen" He is in error in supposing that would approve it so long there is hope that measures more acceptable the South could be ob- tained. We nave always said that it was objection able and unjust, and that would fight as long as any hope of modification existed. We have never expressed willingness to submit to t except when there to be any alternative between that and disunion. But we have pointed out, as clearly as could, it's most odious features. We never could support it while choice left. or when we had to swallow that or something infinitely worse.

The Missouri Senator has delivered himself Of the great speech which he has been compiling since the eo,nmebcemer rt of the session, and from the impress sion made upon some of hrs hearers, it would seem to have been a most contemptble failure. Il was bu, feeble. and intellectual support to detestable cause. The Uuion of the l3lh, in referring 10 the speech, says |" disappointed those who heard it. Such, at least, is the opinion o all who have spoken 10 us about if. IL was supposed that, after the long time he has had to prepare it, he would have said something which would have scattered some new light upon this important subJect Bat his matter was as pueriie as his manner ridcu- lous. IT, played the buffjon more than the states man, and the dull historian instead of the profound politician. Instead of producing powerful argu.
 nenis in behalf of his positions, he seemed conen- ted to raise an insignificant joke at the expense Of his opponents.
