WAsHlNo1on, July s.
SIsATI.-Mr. Douglas said the PROPOSE
ton before the Senate was a plain one.
namely, whether they would admit Kansas
into the Union with the Topeka constitu.
ton, or whether they would substitute the
proposition which had been modified to obvi.
ate the objections made against il, and sdop.
ted by the Senate.
Mr.. Collamer, a member Of the Commit.
tee on Territories, said the bill reported
might appear very plausible, but the exist
ing circumstances OF the case rendered the
adoption of that measure exceedingly i'm
proper. He believed the only true and
sound mode of redress for existing evils, was
just to remove the cause of these evils. 1t
would not do to say that these evils should
be remedied, and at the same time declare
that the causes which produced them should
not be touched.
Mr.. Pierce spoke briefly in favor Of the
amendment.
Mr.. Hale opposed it. He said the Presi-
dent came from some Of the best stock Of
New Hampshire, his father was brave and
patriotic, and he believed the son equally
so. He had said this when Mr.. Pierce was
at the zenith of his power and expected to
be a candidate at x election. he would
say it now when the President had fallen SO
low that the Senate could ride rough shod
over his vetoes and only eightor ten mem
bers would stand by him.
The amendment as reported by the Com
mittee on Territories was Their agreed to.
Ayes, 81; nays, Is; and the bill thus amend
ed passed.
HeUsE.-The bill to remove the obstruc-
tons at the mouth of the Mississippi River
read. The Speaker announced the ques-
ton, when the House, on the reconsidera-
ton of the bill, agreed to its passage, ayes
LAB, noes So. The bill deepening the chan
mel over the St. Clair fats passed, aye $50,
noes s..
The bill for deepening the channel Of the
St. Mays river fats passed, ayes 1856, noes
81.
Mr.. Washburn of Ill, gave notice that
the first time the House should again GO in
to Committee of the Whole on the State OF
the Union, on and after Wednesday, he
would move to pass over all other bills with
a view of reaching those heretofore report
ed making appropriations for rivers and har.
bors.

Bully Brooks On Trial.

Washington, July 8.
The District Attorney said he had used
due diligence, though UNNECESSARILY, TO OBJ.
tain the presence Of Mr.. Sumner, who ex-
pressed hiwself as having no desire to take
part in the proceedings, and had left in the
city.
Testimony was then given by Mr.. Slider
who caused the arrest OF Mr.. Brooks after
the assault on Mr.. Sumner, and by J. w.
Simonten, Mr.. Keith, and Senators Foster
earce and Toombs. The last witness
(Toombs) wished read in mitigation of the
assault at the instance of DIR. Lincoln,
counsel for the accused, extracts from Mr..
Summers speech rejecting on Mr.. Butler.
Drs. Boyle and Lindley and Senator Ben
jamin also gave their testimony. The last
expressed his opinion, Judging from what
he saw Of Mr.. Summers notes, that he
(Sumner) had his speech printed before de-
livering it.
Mr.. Brooks made q short speech, regret.
| ting that Mr.. Sumner was absent; he had
hoped for the benefit Of interrogation conf
| corning his (Sumner's) testimony before the
| House Committee that he would be present.
He took the ground that there are some of.
| fences OF which the law affords no adequate
remt dy; said while he had a heart to feel
and a hand to strike, he would redress the
wrongs of his political mother from every
effort to cover her with obloquy and dis.
honor; his property might be squandered
and his life endangered, but he would be
true to her who bore him. He then bowed
to the majesty of the law to receive his
sentence.
Judge Crawford said as the matter NIGH
perhap. a, that moment be subject to in
yestigation, he would not delay the mem
bers OF the House Of Representatives. He
| would forbear and comment on the testlmo'
| ny, and pronounce 40 the sentence Of thu
Court tina, Mr.. Brooks pay a fine of $500
| Mr.. Brooks then retired with his friends.
