Mr.. kennedy, of Maryland.

We lay before the readers of the PATRIOT
this morning the first part of the able speech
m ,de in the United States Senate on the 18th
inst. by the American Senator from Mary
land. Hon. ANTHONY KENNEDY. The remain
der will be given in our next Impression. 1t
affords us great satisfaction to republish this
speech of the patriotic Maryiander. 1t breathes
throughout spirit of loyalty TO the South
and to the Union, which is refreshing in these
DAYS of timid concession to anti-slavery on
the part of some, and of disaffection to the
Union of others, of those whom Southern
people have been wont to honor. Discarding
political prejudices, having no aspirations be-
yond the sphere Of action ia which generous
constituency have placed him, and willing to
serve his country with view to advance her
interests and protect her honor regardless OF
self. he deals frankly and honestly with the
questions before him. Opposed originally to
the Kansas-Nebraska bill, believing the repeal
of the Missouri restriction unfortunate he is not
vet so blinded by partiZan zeal, as not to dis
tinguish truth from error; and is willing to
sas agitations from the theatre of national
politics. 1t is fortunate for the country that
the American party of Maryland is represent
ed by such statesman in the Senate. 1t viii
be still more fortunate if every American il
Congress should initiate his patriotic example

THE SUMNER Court MARTIAL.-The report
of the proceedings of the court martial, now
sitting upon Col. Sumner at Carlisle Barracks,
gives a complete view of the difficulty be-
tween that officer and Gen. Harvey.
1t appears that, so far as present proceed
ings are concerned. it arose in November last,
at the Fort Leavenworth court martial, when
Col. Sumner objected to Gen. Harvey as a
member of the court martial by which he was
to be tried, on the ground that he was preju-
diced against him. Gen Harvey, in reply,
acknowledged the charge, saying. that he
never had any, or very little, respect for
Colonel Sumner as a soldier" and adding his
opinion that IF improper and untrue state
ments had not been made to the Secretary OF
War" Col Sumner would have been brought
to trial. In December Col. Sumner addressed
a note to Gen. Harvey. which was followed
by others from time to time, desiring an ex-
PLANTATION upon two points: /, whether, in his
remarks, Gen. Harvey intended any personal
disrespect TO him; and 2, whether he charged
him with having made Improper and untrue
statements" to the Secretary Of War. To
none of these notes did Gen. Harvey vOuch-
safe an answer, but sent them all to the War
Department; and, upon receipt of the note
dated at Washington. Feb. 10. inviting him
''tO any place he might Designate he prefer
red charges against Col. Sumner for having
challenged him to fight duel, and afterwards
with having upbraided him for refusing.
In defence. it is urged by Col. Summers
counsel that the letter in question was not a
challenge, but merely an invitation TO go to
some point away from the seat ofgovernment
where the correspondence could be renewed.
Witnesses were called to prove that this was
Col Summers intent in sending the letter.
AS the stands now, there seems to have
been nothing improper in Col. Summers de-
mand upon Gen. Harvey. The latter had
needlessly used language capable of construc-
ton highly injurious and personally offensive
to Col. Sumner; and the latter had perfect
right to demand from him an explanation of
his meaning and intenson. Gen. Harvey
did not act the part of a soldier or a gentle
man in refusing to answer this demand. If
he did intend to speak disrespectfully of Col.
s., he should have had the courage and the
frankness to say so; if not, common justice
required him to disavow such an intent. He
sheltered himself under his official position
from making any reply, and took a dishOnora-
bic advantage of the technicalties of the law
to infict punishment upon Col. s. for having
asked an explanation at his hands.
Whatever may be the result of the court
martial, the whole proceeding cannot fail
very seriously to damage Gen. Harney's
position, both with the army and the country
at large.

SERIOUS SHOOTING AFFA3R.-We understand
that Mr. VIM Boyd shot Dr. c. c. Mcmahon,
last evening about six O'Clock, injuring him
very seriously If not fatally. The shooting
occurred in the Northern suburbs of this city
where both the gentlemen reside. Ii seems
that an i'll feeling had existed between the
parties for some time, which has grown out Of
a suit pending between them, about a house
aud lot located in the upper portion of the
town. Our informant says that Mr.. Boyd
approached DIR. Mcmahon, with a shot gan Ia
his hand. and deliberately fired, without
passing any words whatever. The shot took
effect in the left hip and arm Of DR. McMahon,
and also tearing his right hand severely. We
believe the wounds are not considered mortal
though they are somewhat frightfal. The
smIilness OF the shot, probably prevented the
result of Immediate death. Ne understand
that Boyd had been arrested lleaaFSis Eagle
