WAsHINGToS, Saturday, July IL, 1856.
The def,u,e of Brooks is placed BY bis indorsss
uron the ground of the Constitution that very H.
,trument which he has most outraged. 1t is the
wa, Of the South; they are continually believing
.I,n,ou and The Constitution" when all their acH
dsmoostra,e their hostility and contempt for both.
There is one thing however, in which they rarely
ais.imulate. They do not conceal their raacoroas
h.,,,d Of the NORTH and rarely allow an oppor-
unity 20 humiliate them to pass unimproved. The
sbOmipable and disgusting appeals to this Pas,ioa

The two assaults were made BY savehoders
mon persons denomnated by them " Yankee Aeo-
nj, nists." Heating and Quinn were slain because
tbey were Irish sons of b--hs;" kOhlmsn because
he was Dutchman. All these Tragedies take
place within the short space Of four weeks, 10
city of &C. 600 inhabitants, under the eye OF the
Central Government. In no savage or civilized
country can parallel be found.
Tins far there has been no fighting in the House
over Brooks's case, but Cingman has done his BEST
TO provoke one and Keitt has been seized and
held by his friends in order to prevent his rushing
upon Mr. Hickman of Pennsy lvania, who repe'ied
an impudehty false and offensive charge oy de-
nOuncing it as false.
We shall get the question on this case about
about Monday evening. English of Indiana pro-
pOses to censure Sumner and Brooks equally
Tbs ia the last tribute of Northern mercenary TO
Southern master. BrOOks's friends will Of course
prevent his expulsion. 1t would then be very i'm
pUlitic TO pass mere vote OF censure, which may
he done By a msiority. He would probably feed
expulsion receive majority. No censure could
be SO severe as that. The British House Of Com
mons decided very properly in the famous contest
between Wilkes and Luttrel that member ex.
PEELED for misconduct could not again sit In the
same Parliament though reelected. That ques-
ton NAV again come up, for should Brooks resign
he will of course be retle cted by a constituency
which votes him canes, cOwhides and budgeons,
and invites a repetition of bis brutality;
