the South desired the revival Of the slave trade IL would

Mr.. Gauding, of Georgia, made fiery speech, defending

WASHINGTON, Thursday, March g, l-56.
The House, to-day, after large morning busl-
ness. passed the two appropriation bills reported
Yesterday, and then took up the Election Commit
tees report on Kansas. Mr.. BOyce of South Caro-
lima made rather strong speech for Whitfield.
He was followed by Mr. Bingham OF Ohio for
Reeder, in a very able and effective effort. A
Southern move to adjourn over to Monday was met
by call of the Yeas and Nays, and beaten thereon
by some twenty majority nearly all our side voting
Nay aud only the South voting YEA The House
was very thin, and scores of Free-State men will
regret, when they find the Yeas and Nays, that
they were in such hurry for their dinners.
Another attempt to adjourn over will doubtless be
made tomorrow, and trust DEFEATED.
/ think Reeders friends will succeed on this
preliminary question, though that will not posi-
lively insure us on the final issue. | trust the
power to send for persons and papers will be
granted on Wednesday or Thursday next.
There is movement on foot looking TO a full
consultation OF the Anti-Nebraska Members OF
both Houses in the Representatives Hall on Tues
day evening next. The object is a comparison o.
views with an eye to harmonious action in the next
Presidential Caucus.
The House Committee on Elections to-day de-
cided that there is vacancy for the Eighth Dis
trict of Illinois where Mr. Trumbull was elected,
and his beaten competitor claims the seat. They
will report as soon as may be, a resolution that
the Governor OF Illinois be- requested TO order a
new election. II. G.

BIBLES AND RIFLES.

For three quarters of century previous 10 the
conquest OF Canada by the united arms of Great
Britain, New. England, New York and New-Jersey,
the French in Canada, especially in the last
twenty years of that period were the objects in the
North American Colonies above mentioned, of
much the same sort of dread which the aggressive
spirit Of the slave-dryers Of the South has of late
inspired throughout the entire North.
AS the slave drivers are now setting up pre-
tended claim TO Kansas, and indeed, the whole
unsettled Northwest, and are striving, by fraud
and force 20 obtain possession Of it, so the French,
during the period mentioned above, were strug-
Cling to get possession of the whole unsettled terri
tory on the great lakes, the Ohio and Mississippi,
including, with all the West and South West all
the Western part also, OF what are now New. York
and Pennsylvania, and the northern and eastern
part of the present State of Maine To prevent
the seizure and pre-occupation of all this goody
territory BY Popery and Slavery, our good fore
fathers Of the Olden time were ever on the alert.
setting us gOOdly example, which God grant that
we in our day and generation may have the spirit
and the heart to imitate-since it is no less our
duty and our interest TO prevent Kansas from
being seized upon by the slave holders than it Was
theirs in their day to save Western Ohio and New
York and Eastern Maine from the Popish religion
and feudsl despotism Of the French.
Asa specimen of the spirit of those times, and to
show how piety and valor went, then az now, hand
in hand, We are able to present our readers, in
another part of to-dsys paper, with two original
letters, one written by Ebenezer Pomeroy to Capt
Seth Pomeroy. then in the army before Louis

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,.

The SPEAKER submitted communication from
the Court of Claims nclosing bills making appropi-
a,ioIs for the payment Of certain private claims, to-
gether with tie evidence and the judgment of the
Court in the several cases.
This is the first of the kind originating under the
act creating that tribunal
debate followed regarding the proper disposition
Of the bills. As precedent il now to be established,
one side contended they should be sent to the Commit
tee on Claims fo- examination, while the other argued
that the action of the Court superseded the necessity
Of 20 doing.
Without coming to conclusion on the subject of
reference the House passed the Military Academy and
Invalid Pension bills.
The roquest Of the Committee Elections for power
TO send for persons and pspes in the Kansas contested
81. elton case considered.
Mr.. BOYCE thought that the effect Of irrelevant
matter in the majority report Of the Committee was
calculated though, perhaps Internationally TO still
infame the public mind on this agitating ques-
ton. The Committee had given undue confidence to
rqmors lie did not believe that taking testimony in
Kansas by commissioners would be attended by such
sanguinaTy consequences the Committee appre-
hended. The testimony should be taken among the
people OF the Territories, who at home attending
to their business and who have something else to do

Gen. Amherst at Lake George, ana deSisnoD W
move by Montreal to cooperate in the A'tAcA !" DC
made by Wolfe on Quebec. Tbs second ie''ef
addressed 10 the wife OF the writer, WHO was 'uo'
s.o,ertlv a DISTINGUISHED divine at Hebron IN
Connecticut.
The writer of the first letter was direct the
vriter of second letter was a collateral ancestor
Of that General Pomeroy who, in the providence
of God has been called TO encounter in the Border
Ruffaus Of Kansas foes not whit less unScruPu-
lcus and bent on mischief no less desperate 'nAn
the French AID Indians of those ancient inter-
colonial War.. No doubt among these Border
Rrffars there are large number who deserve hang
ing quite as much as the desperate villain whose
execution is described in the second letter; ana
We nigh almost be tempted to suppose that the
agency under which they act is much the same
which was supposed TO have assisted him III his last
desperate dying struggles.
twill be seen that the good sound orthodox men
of those old times had not yet discovered that sup,
posed discrepancy between bibles and muskeis,
which has caused some of the organs OF the church
militant Of cur day TO assail so vehemently the
zeal the Rev Henry Ward Beecher for furnish
ing Kansas with a competent supply OF Sharps
rifles We beg leave also to call the particular atteni
tion of those tmd and scrupUlous gentlemen to the
fact mentioned in the first of these letters, OF the
earnest prayers put up by the religious people OF
Northampton, then ENJOYING the minstratOns OF
the illustrious Jonathan Edwards, for the success
of the expedition against Louisburg. Have the
religious people Of these times any less reason to
nrsy for the success OF the Free-State settlers OF
Kansas in rescuing that Territory from the hands
of the Border Ruffans and planting Freedom
there
