H The Senate and House of Representa-
tiyes, have both recently been disgraced by the
use ofcourse and scurrilous epithets on the fiool
and we are sorry to say in both cases by South
ern men. And, unless, this course is arrested
those houses Will soon lose the respect and
authority heretofore accorded to them. Not q
day passes, scarcely, without the most selfex-
ulting proclamations in those bodies of our su.
periority, over the rest Of mankind. Yet, what
deliberate assembly in the world, but our Con.
gress, is subject to such reproach.
It's a remarkable fact that the most decorous
political assemblies known to history, are the
councils of the North American Indians-and
with these models before US, why is it that our
Congress falls in dignity below all othersa
We thought when General FooTE resigned
that there was prospect that the Senate would
resume something of its former responsibility
But some of the language used there yesterday
as will appear when the debate is published is I'll
only for the columns of the Louisville Journal
and is hardly exceeded by those of the New
York Tribune, when its philanthropic editor is
in a rage.

gress and of electors for the ensuing Presidential
election in November next. The act of '92
which have quoted, is specific in its provision
that this shall be SO. The condition that il pre-.
scribes, namely, that the apportionment under
the new enumeration shall have been made prior
to the election, is provided for in the act Of
1850, and will be fulfilled by the Secretary Of
the Interior, who, by simple arithmetcal com.
putation, will, as soon ms the returns ahall be
complete, ascertain and announce the apportion.
meut, and that certainly before the election in
November next. And, as If to make this inten-
ton and provision the more clear and emphatic
the propiso at the close of the section makes an
express and contrasting provision, that in the
event that an apportionment under any new
enumeration shall not have been made prior to
the election, then the number Of electors shall
be the same as under the old apportionment
This to my mind, is conclusive of the ques-
ton. Moreover, the uniform practice in all pre-.
|ceding Presidential elections has been in accord
ance with this opinion, or might, perhaps, with
more propriety, say that my opinion has been
based upon the Constitution and laws, as ] have
quoted them, and as they are calculated by the
uniform practice of the government.
do not think have overrated the import
rance Of this question. II certainly involves the
highest rights and interests of the States---the
exercise of the elective franchise in the election
to the highest offices in their gift To enjoy that
right, and exercise that franchise in an effective
manner, it is indispensable for them to know
how many votes they are respectively entitled
to. But upon this point, as have before re-
marked, there are opposite opinions; some con
tending that they are to vote under one appor-
tionment, and others insisting that another ap
portionment is to determine the number Of votes
they shall give. If the old apportionmen is to
be observed, my own State will have but three
electoral votes whereas, under the new one
she will have four. Differences much greater
than this, with other States, will be made by the
adoption of the one or the other apportionment.
Some States will lose, and Others will gain votes
and relative weight in the election, to the extent,
in several instances, Of from three to four, and
perhaps Of .fue votes.
urge, then, not only the importance of the
question itself, but the urgent necessity Of dis
posing of it, by early action upon the resolution

Committee on the Judiciary.
The motion was agreed to.

tF The Charleston Standard makes the
following comments on the case of Ex. Consul
OwEs:
The ADMINISTRATION AND Consul OwEs.-
Several weeks ago we published the letter of
Consul Owen, in which il was manifest that he
resisted the defence of his official conduct in
Cuba upon bis instructions from the govern.
ment IL seemed 10 us from his statement. that
he had not In any respect departed from bis
instructions, unless his interference, at all. in
favor Of the prisoners be regarded as such de.
parture.
When Mr.. Ovens defence appeared, we pub.
llshed II without comment, excepting that some
denial or explanation would be made by the
confidential friends Of the administration. But
we have looked in vain for such explanation.
and as the matter now stands before the public.
the opinion must be that Consul o wen has been
disgraced and called home for obeying instrue.
tons. II Is claimed for the present administra.
ton thf0t pursues an independent and fearless
course, Aanding up manfully for the law, and
boldly meeting its responsibilities in the face OF
popular clamor We grant that in some in.
stances II may have done so, but the case OF
Consul Owen is not one Of them. Ia his case,
unless the friends Of the administration can
make some explanation OF the matter not here.
tofore suggested, every honest mind must con.
clude that the subordinate has been sacrificed for
the act Of his superiors. The proclamation OF
the President, the subsequent correspondence of
the cabinet and the published statement OF
Mr.. Owen, all lead TO this conclusion, and II
the matter is permitted 10 rest here, the char.
acter Of the administration for independence
cannot, hereafter, be regarded as altogether es.

During the recent discussion on the Maine IL
quor law in the Massachusetts, senate, Mr. VIII
SON, the president of that body, thus defined
what he termed democrats Democrat"
The senator from Suffolk had protested against
his remark that the legislature dare not 60 home
without passing this bill. He did not mean by
that to say that senators dared not 10 act up to
their convictions of duty, but that with the
knowledge Of the peoples sentiments on the
subject, we dare not fail 10 do our duty, be-
cause by doing so, we may disturb party ar
rangements For himself, he had no fears, per-
sonal or political, and gave some further reasons
why it should be kept out of political mixture
or agitation, and protested against any attempts
to identify this measure with any of the politi-
cal reforms of the day, passed by the coalition
majority. Mr.. Wilson's party amounted to some
$4,000 or 30,0OO-all temperance men. The
Democrats with whom they had acted could
speak for themselves He would say what was
his definition of Democratic Democrat. He be-
ionged to political association oich believed that
all men ,oere created free and equal, including
every human man, whom God has made, and for
whom Christ has died who recognise the prin-
ciples Of Democracy, and carry them out in the
broadcast and strongest sense. receiue The
hunted fugitive siaue, and believe that Austria
has no law more odious than t! at which COM
pels the poor fugitive to take shelter under the
flag of the British Queen and however gen.
tlemen here and elsewhere hold back, the cause
of liberty and progress will 60 on. Mr.. Wilson
observed that it was usual to call Free-soilers
men of one idea but he referred to former pro-
ceedings in the Massachusetts legislature--to
the anti-slavery resolves of 1885, for which forty
senators voted, to show that the principles Of
his party had been coincided in. He said that
he was Democrat before that time, and that
he became an anti-slavery man in 1885, at Wash
ington. In reference to what he said about
men believing that they were born booted and
spurred" to ride the people, he said he did not
speak of the Wing party, for he believed the
majority of them to be imbued with Democratic
sentiments; but there had been class of men,
from the days of Governor Hutchinson to the
present time, who believed that the Democrats
we're sort of outside barbarians, and that the
Free soilers stood below that mark--who form
/" Goldfish aristocracy." These men never sub
scribe to any reforms, though they live under
them, and it would be found that all liberal
measures passed. within twenty years, had been
passed by Democrats and Wings with liberal
sentiments.
