statement He drew his pistol in self-defsnce,
and we saw no indication Of purpose to use it,
to assassinate his opponent. We do not believe
that be harbored any such intention.
No deliberative body, however grave and dig
nifed, is entirely exempt from these sudden out
bursts of passion but generally, the best correc-
tive Of the evil is, the deep modification of the
parties concerned, the just indignation of the
body, and the stern rebuke administered by an
outraged public sentiment. Violent remedies
would rather exasperate the evil, by arousing a
revengeful spirit in the parties sought to be pun
ished and by provoking sympathy in their favor
We trust that an event so humiliating to the
whole nation, may not pass without IFS lesson to
the Senate. That body has rendered itself re.
sponsible, to great extent, for what has hap
pened, by its connivance at personalities An
impulsive speaker, with an active Imagination,
and passion for invective, in the excitement of
speaking is very apt to run into inconsderate
personalities, unless checked by calls to order.
If not admonished, without any clear understand
ing of what he is about, Vthouta malignant pur-
pose be is sure to say things extremely offensive
and tending to provoke violence.
Is he alone blameworthyl Or, should we not
equally condemn the conduct of the members,
who, sitting calmly in their Seats and seeing
clearly the tendency of his remarks, permit him
to go on, till it is too late to repair the mischief
of his incorporate remarks? We have seen
such speakers in Congress, men of kind hearts
but hot impulses, who would really have thanked
member for calling them to order, thereby
preventing remarks which none would deplOre
more than themselves in their cool moments.

that IL there be valuable mines as it is said there
are in New Mexico, the same kind OF labor will
be found to be exceedingly remunerative there:
and to his statement that the strongest antsavery
feeling prevails in that country, we oppose the
fact, that the counsels of Mr. Foote and his
Southern associates proved more than match for
il, when, under their influence = Territorial Gov
eminent was decided upon instead of State
Government, and all action restricting slavery
was carefully abstained from.
What effect the proceedings Of the present
Congress, so far as the report has reached New
Mexico, may have upon the People-it is difficult
to say Perhaps the State Government party
may desire new arguments from the condition OF
things here, in favor of their position, and renew
under better auspices their struggle for State
organization. If the question be kept open much
longer we should not be much surprised to see
New Mexico coming to Congress and asking adj
mission as State movement, we apprehend,
that would be very unpalatable to Messrs. Clay
and Webster, who seem bent on throwing con-
tempt upon the Presidents policy of non-action.

Mr.. BENToN.--Mr. Benton has distinguished
himself by the gallantry, the frmness and consis-

California. His zeal in her cause and his present
course have been attributed to the fact that one
of her Senators is his son-in-law. 1t so happens
that he manifested equal zeal for the territorial
organization of Oregon, where no such motive
could operate, and that the policy he now pur-
sues dates long anterior to the election Of Col.
Fremont 1t will be time enough to charge him
with such petty selhshness, when he shall violate
the principles he has always professed and de-
part from the policy in relation to the Territories
of Oregon, California, and New Mexico, which
he has always pursued
