CONGRESS-.

In the Senate yesterday, after the transac-
ton of the usual morning business, the Home
stead bill was considered. The Senate by a
vote of yeas 10, nays 20, refused to strike out
the 9th section. Various amendments were
offered, and rather personal discussion took
place between Messrs. Wade and Clayton.
The House Of Representatives passed the
bill creating the Dunkirk collection district in
New York and constituting Dunkirk port Of
entry; also, the Senate bill regulating the time
of holding the sessions of the district and cir
cult courts of the United States for the eastern
district of Louisiana.
The House, in Committee of the Whole on
the state of the Union, had under consideration
the Army Appropriation bill. The amendment
of Mr.. Stanton, Of Kentucky, proposing to dis.
pense with the military and to return to the
civil superintendency was discussed, without
coming to conclusion upon that subject.

COLONEL GEORGE G. WASHINGTON

1t will be seen in another part of our paper,
that this gentleman breathed his last yesterday
morning. To us, who knew Of his protracted and
painful illness, it comes withou surprise. For
weeks, his nearest friends have been without
hope Of his recovery. 1t is with real sadness
that we think of his loss to the extended circle
of which he was o most accomplished orna-
ment; and this sadness is heightened by the
painful fact that almost all of that distinguished
class, known as gentlemen Of the old school,
have passed away. Colonel Washington was
one of them. The not unimpdtant part he has
taken in public life, was always sustained by a
happy blending of firmness and high sense Of
public duty, with the most graceful courtesy
and urbanity while his private relations were
characterized by cheerfulness and gentleness
of manner which made his most hospitable
mansion the scene of the happiest hours to all
his friends. With his cotemporaries he was a
universal favorite, and among them are num-
bered many of the most distinguished men Of
the nation. To young men he was peculiarly
attractive, for while they never forgot the re,
spect to which his age and elevated character
entitled him, they were without the slightest
restraint in his society.
He has gone, after long and useful life, in
which he has done much to honor and nothing
to shade the name of his great relative.

ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND SOUND
DEMOCRATS IN NEW YORK TO
REGIN WITH. tasrT

Amid all the din and clamor of the calls for
repeal gatherings that emanate from the abo-
litionists, freesoilers, and unsound stragglers
from all parties at the north, a firm, clear, and
emphatic voice has made itself heard. 1t has
penetrated the ear of the nation like the call Of
thousand national democrats of the State of
New York. They met at Syracuse on the 18th
instant. They sat in convention but few
hours, but such was their harmony, such their
congeniality, such their unanimity, that in
those few hours they nominated their State
candidates, and passed resolutions endorsing,
sustaining, and approving the Nebraska bill,
embodying as it did essential and fundamental
constitutional and democratic doctrines.
They have proved themselves true among
the false, honest among the dishonest, sound
among the unsound. They have deliberately
and courageously set their faces against the
men around them who disturb the peace Of
the nation, the harmony Of sections, and the
tranquility of parties by the loud cry Of re-
peal.
Some Of their envious foes are accusing
them Of folly for having denounced and cut Of
from them their representatives in Congress
who voted against the Nebraska BILL But no
such denunciations fell from their lips or ap-
pear in their resolutions. They simply de-
clared their own appreciation Of the Nebraska
bill without going further. 1t is, of course,
but fair deduction from their expressed opin.
ions, that they disapprove, and decidedly dis
approve, Of the course Of those representatives
II is bit q fair deduction from the same pre-.
misses that they will abandon, forsake, and
renounce those representatives, if disregardine
all their antecedents, all their professions, anc
all their pledges, they shall unite their fortunes
with those Of the piebald and motley band who
have declared in favor of repeating the Ne
braska bill, the Fugitive slave law, and abolish
ing slavery in the District Of Columbia. While
the resolutions ofthe hards were clear, pointed
and satisfactory, they neither sought to intimi
date by menaces, nor 70 purchase by rewards

SPEECH OF SENATOR DOUGLAS.

We present to our readers today the speech
delivered by Judge Douglas on the 4th of July
in independence Square, Philadelphia. Judge
Douglas spoke on that interesting occasion
with even more than his accustomed power and
eloquence. The appreciation and sympathy Of
his large audience were manifested by warm
and frequent applause. The subjects discussed
by him were the Nebraska Kansas bill, and the
new and formidable secret political society.
Judge Douglass exposition of the principles
of the Nebraska bill was, if possible, more lucid
and satisfactory than any yet given by him.
He seemed almost inspired for the occasion.
He spoke in such manner as to reach the
popular mind and enlist popular sympathy.
Nor was his exposure of the plans and pur-
poses of the secret political order of "Know
Nothings' less powerful and happy. We are
pleased that Senator Douglas has, in this ex-
posure, exhibited his accustomed boldness and
straightforward honesty. 1t is fit that our lead
ing democratic statesmen, who have the conf
dence of the people, and who exert an incalcu-
liable influence ON the formation of public opin-
ion, should speak out, and speak out promptly,
on the subject of this growing and dangerous Sc
cret order, before the thoughtless are deceived
and the unwary entrapped. The democratic
press has expressed itself with singular una
himity on this subject and against this new and
secret party. If, now, the example set by
Senator Douglas shall be followed up on all
suitable occasions by other leading democratic
statesmen, this new society of unknown paren-
tage, dangerous principles, and evil designs,
will be cffectually and speedily crushed. 1t is
needless for us to invite attention to this speech
for all of Judge Douglass efforts will of them
selves command the attention of the country.

APPEAL OF THE LOUISVILLE JOUR-
NAL TO THE wHIGs OF ALL SEC

NAL TO THE wHIGs OF ALL SEC
TIONs. ~
The Louisville Journal of the 18th instant
makes an appeal to the whig party of the ma
ton. 1t chides the wings of the north and re-
monstrates with the wings of the south. 1t
will not tolerate the idea of disruption and
severance Of the ties that have SO long bound
together the wings Of the north and the south.
The position of the Louisville Journal in its
party, is such as to give to it commanding in
nuenoe at the present time. independently Of
the well-known ability with which it is con-
Quoted, its position in respect TO the Nebraska
bill is such as TO conciliate southern wings and
gain consideration with northern wings. In
other words, its position is amphibious. 1t has
one leg in the water, the other on the land. It
agreed with the northern wings in opposing
the repeal Of the Missouri restriction, and
agrees with the southern wings in going against
repeating atrepeal.
The Journal declares that there is no earth
ly reason why the national whig organization
shall be disbanded-why the wings of the
north and the wings of the south shall separate
II says:
"All Of the democratic organs delight in
proclaiming that the whig party of the nation
is severed, and some Of the whg papers, both
north and south, proclaim the same thing. In
one sense what is thus proclaimed is true, but
in other senses it is not The northern wings
and the southern wings are severed so far as
one question is concened--toe mean the Ne6rds-
ka la,c. They ,cere mostly severed in respect 10
The enactment Of the td,c, and they are undoubt.
cdly serered as to its repeal Now this division
as to q single point is destined to destroy the
party as national party, or TO leave it unbro-
ken, accordingly as the wings themselves
| choose. If the wings north shall decide to
force the repeal Of the Nebraska law as test
! upon the wings Of the south, or if the wings of
the south shall insist on forcing the mainte-
| nance Of the Nebraska law as test upon the
wings of the north, then the disruption of the
| party must of course be complete and final.
But II, on the contrary the wings of the north
shall be willing to let the southern wings think,
| and feel, and speak, and vote as they please
upon the Nebraska law, and IL the southern
\ wings shall cheerfully accord the same free.
4 dom to their northern brethren, we see no rea-
son why the great whig party of the nation
! cannot be as harmonious in all future elections
as it has been in any past election"

and marrow Of the elaborate article of the

Saratoga repeal convention ringing in the pub
lie car. They took it amid the threats, frowns,
and denunciations of the freesoilers in whose
midst they stood.
We sincerely hope that their rivals, the softs,
will follow with alacrity the noble example
they have set, and that both wings of the demo-
cratic party of the Empire State will stand,
where all true democrats should stand, under
the flag of the Constitution.
The movement of the hards is destined to
produce important results in New York, and
will attract to that organization the sympathy
of sound constitutional democrats throughout
the country. Nor is it our desire to see the
credit of this movement confined to the hards.
We earnestly wish that the softs may join in
the movement and share in the credit We hope
that all who call themselves democrats, and all
who call themselves patriots, will unite in oppo-
sition to those men who are now organizing
against the peace, tranquility, and happiness Of
the country.
There are, doubtless, men who were opposed
to the passage of the Nebraska bill, but who
will be found yet more opposed to its repeal
to repeating the fugitive slave law, and to agitat
ing the question Of fabolishing slavery inthe Dis
trict of Columbia. Such men cannot find con-
geniality and sympathisers among the lawless
repealers. They must either range themselves
under the same banner with the hards, or under
banner inscribed with the same emblems and
notices. They have the same enemies to fight,
and it will be far wiser to unite and conquer,
than to divide and be conquered. We begin
to indulge the hope that sound constitutional
democratic principles will yet be triumphant in
New York.
