 On the 18th of next month the 1st session of the present, (so far as the House is concern ed) know nothing-do nothing black -repub. ican-" rump" Congress brings its labors @ to close. The House has done nothing, from the election of the speaker down to the pre- sent hour, but wrong and injustice to the con- stitutional rights of the south; and the present indications are that nothing else will be done.
 MT. Dunn, of Indiana, Gan intense American) who stands at the head of the Fillmore and Don- elsoa electoral ticket of Aat State has declared that he will not vote one dollar to carry on the government, unless the laws passed by the Le- gisature of Kansas are declared null and void by Congress. The Senate will never agree to such an outrage, and unless these revolutonsts in the House " back down,' there will be noth- ing to grease the wheels of government with, and Uncle Sam will have to sop It is gene rally believed, as the aforesaid members pock. cts interested to limited extent, in the matter of per diem and mileage, and as the al- mighty dollar is potent with such fanatics, that when the Senate refuses, as 1t indignantly will, to agree to their revolutionary measures, rather than not pocket the dollars, they will pocket the insult.
 On yesterday the House amended the army appropriation bill, in effect decaridg null and void the laws passed by the Kansas Legislature, thus showing disposition to carry out their re- volutonary threats. Should the black repub- licans of the House succeed in defeating the appropriation bills, the effect would be more sensbly felt with their constituents than at the south, as the larger portion of the appropra- tions are expended there. Allow the gold ne- cessary to carry on the government for one year to accumulate in the treasury, and the conse. quence would be the ruin and bankruptcy of the country. sAs 1 before remarked these black republicans and their constituents have too much at stake, to cause the defeat of the appropriation bills, and if they cannot be push ed through by the 18th of next month the session will be extended for that purpose
 As this Congress has done nothing--it may be well to remember who it is that have spent so much money for naught. The black repub- ,,hn tlo .1 House, were elected by and with the aid of the Know Nothings, thus defeating sound national conservative democrats and consequently the aforesaid "intensely Amerecan" party, must bear the responsibility, for without such coali ton at the north, the present House of Repre- sentatives would have been democratic and the legitimate business of the country ere this transacted.
 Another outrage that the present House will perpetrate will be the busting of Whitfield, and declaring Reeder the delegate. No one claims for Reeder that he has any certificate of elec- tion--that he was elected by anything but an irresponsible mob--notwithstading such will be the action of the House.
 The Presidential race is fairly opened, and at the present time the contest is between Buchanan and Fremont, and To one can doubt the result of such contest. It is believed that Buchanan will carry every southern State as the Know Nothings and their conservative nominee," Mir. Fillmore, have committed great taur pas in saying that the repeal of the Mis- souri restriction was unwise and wrong, and the southern Know Nothing presses and orators have not advanced the prospects of their can didate by denouncing the Kansas bill as an abolition fraud MT. Buchanan will also carry New Hampshire, Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Iowa, Michigan, Wisconsin, Indiana, Illinois and California, with good chances for other northern States MT. Fillmore is not in the race at all--so far as his chances is concerned--and the indiscretion of his advocates is weakening him every day for instance, Mr. Campbell, of Ky. a Know Nothing has announced in the House, that he will shortly show up the corruptions existing in the government since MT. Buchanan's connec- tion with it. With the Gardner, Gaphin and iioiAoC' o' S'ii0A S"oOo upOu tuc SklTtS Ol the Fillmore administration, and while he was pro- minently connected with the government as Vice President the less said about corruption the better for Mir. Filmore's cause.
 Correspondents have been stufing the Ame- rican Organ-a Know Nothing sheet published in this city--with the idea that Yell and Fow- Ter will be elected by handsome majorities-- but by the time this reaches you the Know Nothngs will believe the majorities not so handsome after all!
 Messrs Brooks and Keitt have been re-elect- ed without opposition
 The only thing done this session of general interest. is the passage of several railroad grants The Arkansas delegation have had bills report ed for grants to several roads in the State. but they are not likely to pass the present session; if not, however, they will pass the next.
 Yours, etc.,
 ARKANSAS.
 tT Their sentiments are identical; so, on the vital issue Fillmore and Fremont agree on- ly Fillmore is little stronger freesoil.
