MR.. BIsSELL, OF ILLINOIS.

The speech of this gentleman, in the House of
Representatives on Thursday, is thus described by
the Philadelphia Ledger writer. Col Bisse is
democrat =
''He commenced by sort of Tirailleur charge on
the southern skirmishers; but soon deploved LARGO
masses ON his right and left wing which served to
support his heavy artillery stationed in the centre
All these forces, 1t became apparent, were d-
rected against Mr. Calhoun, and produced a tremen-
dous effect. lie reproached the South with first fore
ing southern gentleman and shareholders s Pres
dent, upon the Union, and then making the North
responsible for his acts. General TAYLOR, said he
is southern man and stakeholder; this southern
man sends another southern man and STAKEHOLDER
Mr. King, of Georgia. to California who succeeds
so Tar as to have constitution brought here by two
other southern men and shareholders, (Mr Gwin and
Mr.. fremont,) and yet when all these things are
done by southern men and shareholders, the south
ern men and shareholders cry out against the az
gresslons of the NORTH This was tremendous
hit
The next blow was payfully struck He ridiculed
Mr.. Clngman's notion about the Yankee girl who
refused to walk or be gallanted or coured, or the
Lord knows what, by southern Senator, because
he was STAKEHOLDER. Col Bissell said that tbe
Yankee girls spinsters were full of notons one
OF these being that of doing about such matters as
the gentleman related, just as they pleased. as had
probably been experienced by many members now
on the fioor lie hoped they would not have Tro-
jan war about this modern Helen.
A third hit, which came down with a crash. was
thls-the gentleman from North Carolina, (Mr Ven
able) had told the House day or two ago that if
after the separation of the Union, an abolitionist
should be found South he was for hanging him on the
spot Very well, said Col Bissell, Il presume the
ilrst man hung would be the immortal CLAW. and len
thousand Kentuckians with him, who voted for
emancipation at the last election. 1t would be fine
spectacle, indeed, to see so many men hung at once
and 1t would produccSuch a consumption of the Ken
lucky staple (hemp) that the delegation from Ken
lucky would no longer require annual contract for
hemp with the navy department. (IIere the ladies'
IN the gallery almost cried; but the members on the
ioor, and great many Senators amongst them burst
into horse-laugh.)
Col Bissell levelled his cannon again. Said he ::
the gentleman from North Carolina called this
washington city, southern ground, and said tho
South could be able to maintain it against the North
and against all hazards. He had no doubt they were
brave and valiant men, and that they had not deterj,

three pieces of artillery, burnt the archives, and left
the capitol smouldering ruin. profound silence and
internal reflections).
As to the idea of Southern confederacy,' Col
Bissell treated it with neflabse and contempt
emphasizing in most hateful manner. Illinois, he
SAID, had furnished nine regiments in the war Of
Mexico, she would double, nay triple and quadruple
that number, TO march wherever the government
might direct to preserve the Union. He laughed
the idea to scorn that one portion of the Union had
more courage than the other. lie did not doubt
southern bravery, the history of the country gave
abundant proofs oft; but he nevertheless believed
the southern chivary were guilty Of two mistakes
the first consisted in undertaking the bravery of 9th
ers, the other he need not mention.
In conclusion, he alluded to an historical fact
which created some sensation. He spoke of the
battle Of Buena Vista, where the gallant colonel had
so slgnaly distinguished himself without the renort
Iof General Taylor doing him Justice; but he was
careful not to introduce himself lie merely smoke
OF the fact that when the Indiana regiment by The
awiwardness of its leaders, gave way, it was not
southern chivary which gained the day, but north
ern yaor, the Illinois regiment and another Indiana
regiment, with portion of the Kentucky regiment
coming to the rescue and driving back the Mexicans:
while the Mississippi regiment stood mile off and
mad not pulled trigger. This was "a little more

Mr.. WINTHRoP's PosITIoN Mr.. Winthrop
takes his stand with General Taylor, advocating the
admission of California and leaving slavery to take
its chance in the rest of the new territory until such
time as the people thereof shall frame constitution
and apply for admission into the Union. We dis
scented from this doctrine when advocated by Presl-
dent Taylor and we dissent from it no less emphat-
ically now when advanced by Mr. Winthrop. We
wish to see the question of slavery in the territories
settled now and the threatened crisis may as well
come now as at any time. We regret that Mr..
Winthrop holds this opinion, although we have no
doubt that he holds it honestly. We by far prefer
Mr.. Clay's compromise to the do-nothing system
presented by the President.
