Col Preston 8. Brooks puts himself very fairly
upon the verdict of bis constituents in an Address
which we have not room 10 print. He tells them
that every Member from the Slave States but two,
with thirteen from the Free States, voted in his
favor, ard that be was censued by 80 Black Re-
publican majority" He says:
"But majority of the House has pronounced me,
because of my act unworthy of seat in the American
Congress. 1 could not, as the representative of 9
high toned and gallant constituency, rest with ths i'm
paiation upon you and myself resigned my seat
and, kicking the black dust Of Black Republican
msjorty from my feet, lief the hall in indignation and
dkgust.
8My appeal is to you. II I have represented YOU
faithfully then select me with unanimity which will
thurc er into the of anscism the terrors OF the
storm that is coming upon them. If in aught have
failed to represent you you are then in God: name
tend some man whose bleod is more sluggish than
mire."
If on this appeal Mr.. Brooks is elected-ss he
probably will be-with what truth or plausibility
cen II be said that his beating of Sumner is mere
personal outrage, disapproved by the South

Mr.. Senator Butler has submitted bill which
contewplates the payment Of Members Of Congress
by salary of $4,000 per annum, instead of the
present stipend of eight dollars per day.
There is one insuperable obstacle to the adoption
of this proiect-ts ipdisputable tendency to favor
absenteeism. We should not object to revision
of the system Of Congressional compensation, pro
yided it were thereby stipulated that Member
should forfeit by each days absence one fortiesh
part of his annual compensation, be the same more
OF less. At present, lawyers run home totry their
casss, mt rchants to arrange their liabilities, and
all the rest who have any bu.iness to look after
ina. same, until the House is often left without a
quorum, aid very commonly is minus one-third to
or e.fourth ts Members. Lit US have q reform
that will keep eyerJ Member il his seat while the
Session lasts, and we shall not object to payment
by the year rather than BY the day. Yet We think

James II. Lane was q Democratic Member OF
the last Congress from Indiana, and supported the
Nebraska bill throughout. Declining to be again q
candidate, he migrated to Kansas, and became cit
izen Of that Territory. Taking the eide Of Free
dom against Slavery in Kansas, though strong
-Abolitionist and opposed to alo wing negroes
to settle there he in the course Of events, was de-
nounced by the Border Rufian party, and is now
the object Of their deadly enmity. Elected Sen
ator of the United States by the Free-Sta.e Legs-
latuIe, he repaired to Washington and urged the
admission Of Kansas into the Union. Repealed by
the Senate, he returned to the West and placed
hipself at the head of those Free.State emigrants
to Kansas who are endeavOrng 10 reach their chosen
home through Iowa, many Of them having been
stopped and turned back by the Border Ruffians
while endeavoring to make their way through Mis-
souri,.
Nobody believes or apprehends that Col. Lane
or his party will disturb or modest any one in Kan
sas if they are ,imply let alone. They deny the
right of the Missouri Ruffians to impose laws on
Kansas, and Of course dispute the validity of the
bloody code which those Ruffisns have already
enacted for the government of Kansas. But they
have only to be let alone to insure peace between
them and everybody else.
Yet the telegraph informs US that Gen. P F.
Smith is preparing to arrest Lane whene he sets
foot in KaDsas-thst Gen. Harvey is fastening to
the Territory doubtless to cooperate in this enter
prise--and that band of six hundred Missourians
is organized at st. Joseph (Mo.) to intercept
Lanes party on their way to Kansas. All this is
received as coolly as If it were the account Of
some Buchanan ratify ing convention.
We ask fair men to say whether, with the Mis-
souri, river route closed against Free-State immi
grafton, and even the route through Free Iowa
blockaded by ak hundred armed Missourians, it is
9 time to hold an election in Kansas to decide
whether she shall be Free or Slave What chance
can Freedom have in an election under such
ansnicee

The arrival Of the Illinois yesterday gives rs two
week. later intelligence from California This
steamer brings the San francisco mails Of July s,
and 81 GAG, 900 in gold. The Vigilance Committee
are still in session, and the excitement in San
Francisco had been increased BY the arrest Of
Judge Terry Of the Supreme Court for stabbing
one Of the policemen Of the Committee while in
the discharge of the duties Of his Office. Our &C.
counts from the mines continue TO be favorable,
and the agricultural prospects of the State were in
the highest degree Asttering. Full details Of the
news will be found in the letters Of our Sacramento
Correspondent. From New Orleans we have tele-
grspbic dispatches Of Nicaragua news. Walker
was iraugurated President on the 18th inst. Riva'
was still at Leon, with many Of the natives on his
side.

10 DO 70. Then. BY law, he lctsx 10 broken opsa
(if Tie se.ders name Is not printed or written on
the outside) and II Il returned to The writer, and
the postage he must pay, il win be collected By
Q summary process. Under these regulations, very
few letters are sent without prepayment But
this bin applying compulsory prepayment TO nsw'
papers and other printed matter Is simply imPrac-
ticable.
In great number Of cases it Is impossible to
tell what printed mail matter 10 transient and
what is regular" A publisher wishes to send
some extra copy or copies, or some back numbers
of bis journal to Q subscriber, or to person not
subscriber, and il this to be considered Z" tran
sient or mott If not, how 10 it to be told, and IL
so, how is 1t to be distinguished from regular
natter There il no particular box, door. or
opening, nor is there any particular person, style
Of bag, or kind of carriage that takes regular mail
matter to Offices to show what il "trsnsient and
what il regular" Regular papers are generally
done up smoothly with paste, and supsrscribed In
a rapid style of writing, but often they are less
perfect in their arrangements. Thus great deal
of transient matter looks very Ike regular.
Moreover, it is very bad economy, for great deal
of transient mail matter is now sent without pre-
payment and is paid double, whereas if this bill
becomes law, the " transient" printed matter
OF that which is suspected Of being TRANSIENT Will
be condemned at once, the Government will lose
all the postage, and the owners will lose their
pamphlets and papers. If greater quantity 10
prepaid then 1t will 90 at half the price (pre'pad
rates), and the postal receipts be less than they
are at present.
We are told by the gentlemen who have charge OF
the newspapers in the New York Post Office, that
probably one-siIth Of oil the printed matter that
comes 10 this Office is-fr9m various causes-Dever
delivered. 1t is not called for, or perhaps is mis-
directed or the wrapper or directions get torn Oh
and the papers are lost. This bill will add to the
vast amount of loas that is constantly taking place.
The other compulsory prepayment bill was
measure of the Postmaster General, and so is this.
He seems to have confirmed spite against news
papers and periodicals. He has made several
efforts to double the rate now paid on all regular
printed matter. If the Postmaster General has
such an antipsthy to the general circulation Of
such matter or wishes to have it pay better, why
does he not recommend total abolition OF the
frankiIg PRIVILEGE
Perhaps, like some Of the Z" unterri6ed" that
we have seen be has so long served in the ranks OF
the Border Rufian Democracy that he hates the
very word abolition" and everything that it is
applied TO. We trust that the friends of low aud
uniform postage, both in the House and Senate, will
beware of tn attempt to place new obstruction
on the circulation of intelligence If there is now
no opportunity to pass q good postal law, suffer
nothing ike this bill to live to third reading.
