mont, Senator from California. who said-h
for his opposition to the amendments to the
California bills. Mr.. F. answered that he
could make no apology, as his course re-
1uired aone. Col. Fremont then shook his
finger at Mr.. Foo,e, and said the latter was
"sno gentleman;' whereupon Mr.. Foote
struck Col. Fremont in the face. fight
being about TO ensue, the two Senators were
separated by gentlemen near them, Col. FIRE.

ed in elections there is generally no want
Of conveyances to carry voters to the polls;
they can be had then free of charge. But
lie, there be general election, in which no
one feels Immediately interested, then the
reverse is the case. Hence we conclude,
that selfshaess goes, with some. before pa
