expect US to he with you next year in Penn
sylvana in New I DIRK, in Ohio, in Illinois
And if you do not or if we do not vote, how
large, think ye will be the Democratic party
in these States"
Mr. Douglas said he had no defence to
make for his Democracy, no vindicaion to
| offer of his course. The slur that he was
acting with the Republicans had no effect
upon him. He saw Senators here every day
acting with the Republicans pon certain
questions. 1t only showed their manliness
and independence. He had. no protestations
to make upon this point. lie was guided by
a sense Of Justice and Of constitutional duty,
and did not care with whom he acted. TffOr
standing by his principles, he should be driv-
en- into private life, that was fate which had
no terror for him. He preferred private life
to base compliance with the dictates of
| Executive power
In conclusion he apologised to the Senate
for the desultory nature of his speech His
health was SO lnfirm that it was lmpos, ible to
give hIs remarks that preparation which was
due TO the Senate.
Mr.. Toombs rose TO reply, apparently un-
der considerable excitement. He said that
Mr.Douglas had assailed ard arraigned his Sec
ton, the South. He had done so by quoting
the Washington Union and duplicating the
South in the doctrines of that paper-doc-
trnes which no one held in the South Mr..
| IOombs then went on to comment upon the
extraordinary position occupied by MIR. Dou-
glas. Who were acting with him now? Not
man that acted with him four years ago, ex-
cept perhaps Messrs Bell and Crittenden.
Mr.. Toombs was violent and vituperative
| in the opening of his speecll-calling the Re-
publicans miserable hypocrites and pretend
ers, and INDUCING largely in other choice ep-
ithets. The rest of his speech was only an
incorrect rehash of his harangue of last week.
He declared explicitly that the factious m "a
jority THAT was the term he used) ought to
have been expelled from the Territory, or dis
franchised-treated AS the Tories were treat
ed in the RevOut He uttered long
string OF asser ions about the transactions in
Kansas, to show that the people were not OBJ
structed in voting as they pleased and that
every thirg had beer fair and square
AS for threats of danger to the South, Mr..
Toombs was exceedingly valiant. lie did
not care a button for what laws Congres,
might make about slavery. The South would
disregard them. Two thousand millions of
property were not to be legislated away by
Senates or Houses. The South cared no.
thing for Scnates or Houses. She had won
her slaves by her own valor, and would hold
them by the sword.
Mr.. Toombs was exceedingly insolent in
manner and abusive In style. Alter he got
through, Mr.. Stuart rebuAed him with great
severity for his arrogance and egotism.

Letter from the Hon. H.. N. Rice lsn-

Letter from the Hon. III. N. .Isice La
dOrsing LecomptOn.
From the Pioneer & Democrat 2Sth.
We find in the Dubuque Northeast, the
following letter from Senator Rice, to John
d. Jennings, Esq, Of Dubuque. IL removes
all doubt us to the position of Mr.. r. on the
Lecompton question.
1t becomes us to say, in this connection
that we deem Mr.. Rice's logic as lame as his
conclusions erroneous. The rea ,oning ad-
opted by the Senator to sustain his adhesion
to the Presidents policy, has been reiutcd SO
often, that it is altogether unnecessary to
refer to it, at the present time, except to ex-
press the unqualified dissent recorded above:
DUBUQUE, March 1G.
DEAR COLONEL enclose you letter
from Hon. Henry M. Rice, the Senatorial COL
league of Gen. James Shields, from the State
of Minnesota. The letter was not designed,
perhaps for publication but in the absence
of any injunction to the contrary, take the
liberty of asking for it place in the columns
of the Northwest, because of the clearaess
with which his views on the Kansas policy
of Mr.. Buchanan are set forth.
Very truly. yours,
JOHN ID. JEANINGs.
