ACCOMPLISHED AT LAST.

JuDoE LoKIHa, of Boston, has been removed
from his Office of Judge of Probate Of the county
Of Suffolk, by the Governor Of Massachusetts,,
BANKS, upon the address Of both branches of the
State Legislature; an act which Governor GARD
SER, american, refused to perform.
The only crime, or offence, Of which Judge Lor-
ing was guilty, or with which he was charged was
that he executed the law of Congress, commonly
called the Fugitive Slave Law; and for this, the
ultra anti.slavery party Of that State have perse-
veringly sought to infct punishment upon him
They have accomplished their unworthy purpose
at last, of removing him from Office but in doing
this, they have injured the fair fame of "the Old
Bay State vastly more than they have injured
him; and have made a record that will stand as
an eternal disgrace to all who had any hand in the
transa ,tion.
We are glad to see that some Of tho leading
papers belonging to the Republican party in Mass
achusetts and other Northern States condemn the
removal Of Judge Loring in the most unqualified
terms, characterizing il arbitrary, impotic and
malicious the fruit of faction, fnaticism and fe-
focity
We should not be surprised if this unjust perse-
cution of Judge Loring should make him the sue
cessor to Governor Banks, or Vice President of
the United States.

MIR. CRITTENDRN,s SPEECH.

We have great pleasure in presenting our read
ers this week, with the eloquent and patriotic
speech Of Senator CRlrrENDES, delivered in the
Senate week ago upon the Kansas ecompton
question. II was listened TO with great admira-
ton by the crowded Hobbies and galleries of the
Senate-a large portion Of the House of Repre-
sentatives being present-and it is to be sent
abroad over the land in large numbers, many
thousands having been ordered.
Mr.. Crttenden, If not the Oldest Senator, has
served more years in that body than any other
one, and has, therefore, the largest experience as
such. He has been Attorney General under two
Presidents, General Harrison and Mr.. Fillmore,
and his name has long been familiar as household
words to the American people, with whom II Is
but a synonym for talent, eloquence, largeness Of
heart, frankness honesty, political integrity, and
an ardent love Of bis country-his whole country,
every part and parcel Of it. His name, ever asso-
ciated with that Of "tbe great statesman Of the
West" never fails to warm the heart Of every
true Wing, and to recall the stirring scenes Of the
palmy days Of that glorious party, Of which be may
exclaim, quorum pars, magma Jfui." No man in
the nation has stronger hold upon the affections
Of the American people than Mr.. Crittenden.

MIR. DOUGLASS SPEECH.

Senator Douglas delivered his long expected
speech on the admission of Kansas under the L.
compton constitution, in the Senate on Monday
evening
He spoke about three hours, and without any
desire TO hatter him, we must say that his speech
was in every respect worthy Of his high reputation
gratifying to his friends, troublesome to his oppo-
nents, and II not a convincing argument upon the
subject II was because those who are convinced
against their will, are of the same opinion STILL
The galleries Of the Senate were filed to over
flowing early in the day, 1t being expected that
Mr.. Douglas would address the Senate during the
| day ; but though Il was arranged that he should
speak at seven o'clock, ritter the Senate had taken
o recess, yet so anxious were the people to hear
him that a large number remained from nine o.
clock In the morning until ten o'clock at night
thirteen hours.
The Hobbies OF the Senate were filed with mem
bers of the House, and as there were crowds Of
ladies--and thousands Of men--wbo could not get
into the galleries. already crammed TO their utmost
capacity, the ladies, on motion Of Mr.. Gwin, were
admitted into the Senate Chamber, every part Of
which was soon filed.
SO great was the rush and desire TO get into the
galleries, that the Vice President was compelled TO
order the SsrgeantatArms to prevent any further
attempt TO press in, by closing the DOORS
Mr.. Douglas labored under the disadvantage Of
having to go over much ground already trodden
by many other Senators, and some that he had
been over before But he made some new and
strong points, and, as whole, his speech win be
found to BIO mastery review Of the Kansas ques-
ton, and most able argument against the course
Of the President and the majority Of the Senate.

THE DEBATE IN THE SENATE.

On no occasion since the discussion Of the COM
promise measure in 1850, when Clay, Webster,
Cass, Calhoun, Badger, Dickinson, Davis of Mass,
Msngum, Dawson, Berrien, Phelps, Soule, and 9TH
ers-now nearley all gone to that bourne from
whence no traveller returns-were present, has
there been debate in the Senate at all to be COM
pared in the interest It has excited and the ability
II has called out, to that which has just closed.
Among the very able speeches made, and not
particularly noticed by us heretofore we may
mention those Of Messrs. Seward, Collamer, Fes-
sender, Foot Simmons, Wade, and Hsmlin, on
one side, and Of Hammond, Toombs, Bayard, and
Green on the other Gen. Houston has also dis
tinguished himself by some exceedingly eloquent,
elevated, and patriotic remarks. But his hands
have been tied by instructions
Weekly American. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1858-1858, 1858-03-27

az The vote upon Lecompton in the Senate,
we regret to say, showed want of unity among
the few A,asricans in that body. The gallant,
the experienced, the eloquent Crittenden stood
manfully up In resistance to the last contrasting it
with all his ability, all his eIoquence, and his chi
valry. Side by side with him stood the fearless,
the able and the honest statesman, Bell, who did
battle against the measure with good will and
effect. But we regretted to observe voting with
the Administration Democrats, and supporting
Lecompton, Mr.. Thompson, of Kentucky. and Mr..
Kennedy, of Maryland. We say regretted be.
cause VIC view this subject in different light
from the last mentioned Senators, and had in
dulgcd hope, at one time, that they would be
found standing shoulder to shoulder with Senators
Crittenden and Bell. We can only say we think
the latter have won golden opinions from the great
body Of the American people, by their manly and
determined opposition to what they and we con-
slider most unmitigated fraud and outrage.

MIR. ANDERSON, OF MISSOURI.

Mr.. Anderson was elected to the present Con-
gress by the American party of the I'd district of
Missouri, over Democrat. But since he has been
here he has voted regularly, We believe, with the
Democrats and might as well call himself one.
His course having been much censured by those
to whom he owes his election, he has published
an address to the voters Of his district, through
the Washington Union and offering himself as a
candidate for reelection and ustfyng his course.
We presume he will now have no Democrat.
ic oppone It, and will most likely be reelected.

RAsCALITY in A COURT.

A deputy sheriff and constable have been de-
tected in Philadelphia, in packing jury in the
French murder case. Judge Ludlow committed
the deputy sheriff to prison for ten days,-no ade-
quate punishment-and the high constable has
been bound over to answer the charge of perjury.
Let rottenness and rascalitty be rooted out, and
hunted down like rabbits and rats. We had q
specimen Of it here, in the "Bloody Monday" trials
and in the packing Of the grand jury that sat on
that occasion but we had no Judge Ludlow on
the bench
