pen this letter to pay just tribute to the
Hon. Preston S. Brooks, of your State.
lie made speech in the House to-day,
which for real eloquence, if eloqucnce is to
be judged by its effects, has not been equal
lei for many a day. His subject was hum
bic and small, but he aroused in every heart
tho deepest emotion.
The Chairman of the Committee of Pen
sions reported bill this morning giving to
Mrs. Tilman pension of eight dollars per
month, for life. When it had been twice
read instead Of referring it to the Commit
tee of the whole House, which is the uni
vcrsal rule, Mr.. Brooks rose and asked that
the bill might be put upon its passage, and
proceeded to state the merits OF the bill.
The story was short, but never was q story
better told-never did bounty pass the
House after its recital less grudgingly. Mrs.
Tilman, Of Edgefield, S. c., was widow
her husband aud three of her sons perislled
in the Mexican war; they were all she
could give, and when the grave closed over
them, a paralytic son and small daughter
were the only survivors Of this fearful har-
vest of death.
Never did suffering humanity find more
eloquent pleader than in Mr.. Brooks on this
occasion. / can say truly that while he
was speaking "tears fell from eyes unused
to weep" He concluded his eloquent ap.
peal by asking the House to pass the bill
without the usual reference to the Commit
tee Of the whole House. Mr.. Mace, Of In
diana, Immediately sought tho floor and
moved to amend tho bin by increasing the
pension from eight to twenty dollars per
month. The question was taken, the amend
ment was adopted and the blu passed, as
amended, with scarceIy a dissenting voice.
The good woman had only asked the
usual pension of $s per montli-the Com
mittee had recommended the same. Mr.:
Brooks had asked for no more, and vet 50
magical was the. influence of his Touching
eloquence, that stranger, operated upon
by tile generous impulses Of bis heart,
moved 10 increase It more tlIan an hundred
fold, and tho House, 10 the genial glow Of
commendable magnaiiimity, voted it. i

brings with him about seven hundred bona
Jfde Southern emigrants; men of the right
stamp, who come to till the fertile plains of
Kansas; men who have left the orange
groves Of the South, the palmetto shades Of
early boyhood, to seek new homes in tho
rich and fertile domains OF Kansas Terri
tory.
From our acquaintance with Messrs.
Hester and Bclcher, we are favorably i'm
pressed, and if they are samples of tho bal
ance, the Southern cause will gain ain i'm
petus on their arrival, which will startlc the
owls and bats of AboIitionism which con-
grcgate at Lawrence, and only end when
the last Abolitionist shall have left Kansas

Messrs. Hester and Belchcr arc young
men Of fine education and gentlcmanly ad-
dress, and possess all the requisite quahfca-
tions for hardy, trusty pioneers, and arc
just such men as are wanted in 1laNsas
