The Courur des Eats Uais professes great
horror OF fbustering in Nicaragua, but is o; the
same time great advocate for, or at least apollo
cist Of -Ruffianism in Kansas. The strong
inclination of that journal for making Kansas a
Slave Territory, by force and violence If 1t can't
be Gore otherwise of course makes it bitterly
hostile toward all who favor the Free State cause.
There must, however, be some still more personal
and special for that btterieroclty with which
that Journal assails the citizens of New York be-
Cause at the great meeting at the Tabernacle on
the Sumner outrage they chose to call for aud
70 listen to the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher That
attack is, indeed, nominally upon Mr. Beecher
himself whom the Courier denounces as "soi-
disant minister Of the Gospel profaniog his pulpit
by open appeals to civil war" guilty of sacrilege,
because Border RIffians couple his name with
Sharp's Rifles, he tribune of AbolitOnist yio-
lence, and thereby the provoker of Southern vio-
lences, himself more guilty of the attack upon Mr..
Slmner than anybody else; and being such man,
totally unfit person, as the Courier alleges to ad
dress the great meeting at the Tabernacle.
Mr.. Beecher, it is we'll kn0wa did no. volunteer
TO address that meeting. He spoke OnlT at the
very close of it, end after having been repeatedly
and most urgently called for. To say, then, that
he was urft 10 address the meeting, is direct at
tack upon the meeting ITSELF BY which ne was
called out. All the abusive epithets hurled at him
are not 80 much aimed at him Is at the meeting
that insisted upon hearing him. The urgency with
which be was called for by that most respectable
assembly and the abundant evidence given at the
time, that he was the very man, of all others, that
the assembly wanted to give expression to the feel
ing which pervsded ir-this comp iment, from
the citizens of New York, will, perhaps, some what
console Mr. Beecher for the dreadful misfortune Of
falling to enjoy the appreciation Of the Courier des
Etats Unis, aid of suferiog the fslsebO IDS with
which il chooses to assail him.

There has been an election IiOt here to-day.

vented it from sdjourning over TIL Tnursday 70

Brooks sent message to the Senate that he
meant no ofense to that body.

During our municipal election to-day there was COZ
siderable fighting. In one precinct a man was dan.
gerousy injured. In the Seventh Ward the igLtiag
was very sharp, and several slightly M ured. In
the fouIth Ward clubs aud stone were the order OF
the day. We cannot learn that anybody has been
killed. but is reported that in tae Fourth Ward the
mob after creating riot, were dispersed by the police
with pi-ol shots and that several of the rioters

New-York daily tribune., 1856-06-03

We learn from Washington that the Republc,s
Members Of Congress are overwhelmed with letter,
asking for copies of Mr. Summers speech to sap,lJ
neighborhoods, townships and even whole district
The writers appear TO imagine that speeches ara
somehow printed at the public expense, when IN
fact it is only the wrapping and postage which s,e
cbargcable on the Treasury, and every Member
who distributes this speech must put his hands i,
bis pocket and pay at least $50 per thousand for i,
beside the labor of procuring, directing, franknt
and mailingit. In view of these facts we respect
fully ask gentlemen who want to circulate this or
any other speech whether they prefer to ride fee
horse to death We believe we could name one
Republican Senator-but it is not necessary to name
him-who has paid for documents that he h.s
lranked and sent away during the present session
more than his entire pay as Senator. Il i.
generous, is it just, to sponge in this way Where
copies of a speech are wanted By hundreds aud
thousands, should not those who believe its circua
ton would do good put their hands in their pockets
and send along a 80 or so note with the letter
requesting the copies. This would make things
easy, and not require Members, as now, to pay out
for speeches money which they actually need for
the support Of their families.
New-York daily tribune., 1856-06-03

We eiye to-day the report of the Committee OF
the House on the breach of privilege committed by
the 4, sassin Brooks. The Senate, in their repre-
sen,aton to the House, saw fit to describe the act
Of Brooks as San assault with considerable vio-
lence." Delicacy, perhaps, TO TOombs, who ap-
proved of what Brooks did, to Douglas, who delib-
Grated whether not lie should interfere but
decided rot to do SO, to Batter, who II
he lad been there, would have spared his gallant
hilsman" the necessity Of acting by step
ping into his place-delcacy to ihese members OF
their own lo]y, as well as a general indsposition
10 DO more tran was absolutely necessary to save
appearances led the Sena.e to the use Of this
mincing pArasec'oey. The House Committee state
the matter with somewhat closer adherence to the
truth. They report the assault as having been
premeditated, made with deadly weapon, and
The wounds inflicted as calculated 70 endanger Mr..
Summers life, ard as unfortunately dealt with
utter recbessncss as to the result.
EThere is one circumstance, however, to which
the Committee does rot ellpde--a very material
circumstance, indeed, and which would have JUST
fed them in going much further. We have called
a,enion in another article to the fact that Brooks
continued to assail With furious violence bis fallen
and bleeding victim long after he lad become insen-
sible, AID until he, the assaant was
interrupted by third persons The conclusion from
tiis, taken in connection with the other cireum-
starces referred TO b, the Committee, is jlst and
reasonable tlas Brooks intended 20 comrut muf'
der, andi that be would have done 81 Douglas,
Toombs and Others standing by without interference
had not Mr. Morgan come to the rescue. Thewea-
pon used wasamurderous weapon, the wounds in-
nioted were OF murderous kind, and the whole
New-York daily tribune., 1856-06-03

We have given elsewhere deta led statement,
derived from The Congressional Globe, of the course
of treatment pursued by the Southern Senators
toward Mr.. Sumner, which course of treatment
reached crisis in the recent murderOus ASSAULT.
We say murderOus assault, because it is perfectly
fair and reasonable TO conclude that brutal villain
who assas another by surprise, and having knocked
him sanseess continues to beat him till he is stop
ped by the forcibe interference of Others, did in
tend to beat him to death, did assai him with that
intent, and would have accomplished that intent
had be not been forcibly prevented.
The details of what had previously occurred be-
tween Mr.. Sumner and his Senatorial antagonists
throws clear and distinct light upon this assault.
Every other method had been tried to silence him,
but in vain. He evaded repeated efforts TO gag
hin, by making use of his superior knowledge OF
parliamentary tactics and adrotly seizug his time.
His perfect camness aud complete selfcommand
made useless all efforts and contrigances TO entange
him in his talk. His steady courage was more than
n match for all the brutal and fufious threats with
which they attempted to frighten him. He stood
unmoved, even the terrible iniliction OF not being
recognized as a gentleman by such creatures as
Douylas. Clemens aud Alabama Clay If there
was q gentleman in either House, he was drawn in
spte of opposing politics. BY the pure force OF sym
patby. into friendly relations to Mr.. Sumner. For
fellow. Senators not to be on speaking terms with
him. did him no harm, while it placed all those
who oined in this attemp. TO dscredt him in great
danger of being reckOned among the blackguards.
His recognition was of vastly more importance to
them than theirs could be 70 him.
Even the attempt repeatedly made to disgust and
silence him by the most low and vulgar abuse, only
drew out from him retorts as keen as they were
p,u,lemsnly, in which, while adheriDg to all the
rules of the most stric. senatorial propr.ety, he
drove his adyersares, ba1led and discomfited
from the field. The combat between him and them
might il deed be compared TO that between Valen
tine and Orson, bis keen rapier being more than a
match for all their clubs, while he carried of the
victory by holding up polished shield of wit
wherein these blackeuards might see themselves
ard all the rest Of the world 700 might see them
reflected. The Southern Senators, thus beaten at
every point Of senatorial tactics have rcsoted at
Ist 10 murderous violence. The issue between tba
| North and the South, which Butler threatened nc
way of answer to Nj. Sumner first pe.ch, hes It
length been made in the very way which Butler
then distinctly indicated. That which the uncle
thIeatencd the nephew has undertaken 10 carry
ou,. That which hitherto has been an issue b..
tw, en- the Southern Senator's ald Mr. Sumner thev
have low made an issue between them and ,ba
great body of the people Of The North and with
such following to back lin they will find Mr.
Sumner, we appreherd, al adversary still more

Amid he great aud salutay excitement produced
Throughout the country by the late atrocious out
rase in tie Senate Chamber, we trust the people
will not forget the outrages of which Kansas is the
scene. We publish this morning number of ad-

other officers holding commissions urder the United

is no law in the Territory, the Free-State men have

for the sake Of peace, they have submitted
70 everything. To ask them to submit further
would be to ask them to resign the Territory 70 the
