The KAszAs DrBArp.-The Washingto

The KANzAs DEBATE.-The Washington
correspondent of the N. Y. Tribune of March
8, says:
Judge Douglas attempted to call up his
Kanzss resolution of inquiry to day, and was
proceeding to discuss its necessity, and com
mencing upon Gen. Calhouns course in not
having declared the result Of the elections
two months after they were held, when he
was interrupted peremptorily by V ice Presi-
dent breckenridge, who announced that the
hour Tor the special order had arrived. Mr..
Douglas observed that this was not the prae-
tiee of the Chamber, and asked if there was
serious purpose to check his remarks; to
which Mr.. Breckenridge replied in the afir-
native with much emphasis of manner.
There is en- evident purpose on all hands to
bear down on Mr. Douglas with every ele-
ment of power.
Mr. Toonhs will have tilt in the kanzas
debate with Judge Doughlas, nothwithstand-
ing the former relations between the two
Senator Green's amendment. providing for
the admission of Minnesota and Kanzas, pro-
vides that nothing shall be construed to pre-
vent the alteration or amendment of the
State Constitution. and Senator Pugh's af-
firms the general declaration in tie Bill of
Rights. Neither proposes tie insertion of
positive condition, such as the Pennsylvania
Democrats profess to require before they will
give their adherauce to Lecompton."
Another correspondent says:
" The great debate of the session-the dis
cussion of the Kanzas question in the Senate
began today. 1t is likely to continue for
three or four weeks, and to call forth to their
fullest extent the'politioal and oratorical pow
ers of the leading Senators. On the Admin
istration side the principal speakers are likely
to be Green Of Missouri, Mason and Hunter
of Virginia, Hammond of South Carolina,
Toombs of Georgia, Sidell Of Louisiana, JEFF
ferson Davis of Mississippi. Of these seven
Senators, Hammond of South Carolina is said
to be the most eloquent and formidable in de-
bate; but believe he has not yet opened his
mouth in The Senate, except to say yea or
nay. Not one of the Ueven, however, can
compare in ability or knowledge, or in COM
mand of the public attention of the country,
with such men aSHale, Seward, Fessenden,
Wilson, Douglas, Trumbull or Hamblin, to
take the first seven names that occur to me
of opposition Senators. / could enumerate
another seven from the opposition without
exhausting the list, of whom the same thing
might truly and fairly be said. Mr.. Douglas
is host in himself. 1t has been fol years a
common remark among the Republican SEN
ators that Douglas was the only man on the
other side Of the Senate with whom an intel
lectual or parliamentary conflict gave them
much anxiety or called forth all their ener-
gies.''

the children rushed frantcally from the build

for time among the people in the vicinity,
who thought the building was on fire. For
tunately, none of the children were seriously
injured.

ADyIcEs FROM ST. Thomas, of the 18th of
February, state that the want of confidence
engendered by the American and European
crises, had Frustrated trade completely. The
old established house of Ridgway, Ruhl s.
Co., had suspended payment. The manag
ing partner, John A. Ruhl, was imprisoned
under an old colonial burgher law, for the
non payment of a bill of exchange for $4,000,
accepted by the house previous to its tempo
rary EN- barrassment. Owing to the exerlions
OF the United States consul, he was, however,
soon released. The harbor was full of YES
sells, but no freights were to be had. Yellow
fever had appeared unusually early; six
deaths occurred from 1t in seven days, and So
persons lay i'll at last accounts.

The national Era of Washington defends
Senator Seward from the assaults made upon
him BY certain Republican Journals, and
says:
Panegyric is not our taste, nor shall we
indulge in it now. But it is sheer folly to
suppose that Mr.. Seward has changed his
character, his purposes, or his policy. He is
just as true to the cause of freedom to-day,
as he has ever been. He does not advocate
permanent increase of the standing army.
He has not said that the battle between free
dom and slavery is over. He has not re-
nouneed allegiance to the Republican party.

AN IMPORTANT METEOROLOGICAL D1sCov-
ERY- Hoao to Calculate the Wind in AdrGnce.-
The Secretary of the Navy has received a
letter from Lieut.. Maury respecting plan for
computing the force of the wind, by which
the latter gentleman thinks it probable that
the liability to disasters on our northern lakes
may be~obviated to considerable extent
lie says that Professor Bays Ballet. of Hol-
land, claims to have discovered proportional
relation between the force of the wind and
the difference of simultaneous barometric
pressures at certain stations, by means of
which he has succeeded in deducing rules for
calculating each morning the maximum force
Of the wind during the ensuing day. Prot
b. asserts that this system has been observed
by him in Holland, and during five years the
force Of the wind has in no instance exceeded
whatshis calculations indicated. 70 outward
bound vessels on the lakes this would be of
the highest advantage as it would enable
them to predict in the morning whether they
would be safe during the day in case they,
put to see. They COULD also tell the safest
hour during the day fer setting sail.

MesSrS Editors In last Tuesdays edition of
the IRnscript there appeared an article relating
20 thefact OF a Sunday school being established,
patronizedlby the Hon. Isaac Davis, for the be.
nevolent" purpose of breaking spiritual bread to
the rising generation. In that article there was
scarcely single fact which was not enormously
represented and. in order to vindcate the char.
acter the parties alluded to, one of the number
wrote an explanation to the Transcript, request
ing its publicity which, from some motive, he has,
we presume, thrown under his counting room
desk. Now let us come to facts. and request the
Spy to place the explanation of said facts before
a too credulous host Of readers. The Transcript
says ''some two or three ardent Catholics and
especially one," hA intmidated the children
Catholic of course, } from attending these pious
conventicles, by 'threats and whipping"
First, then, asseverae no such circumstance
ever took place, at least their part. Secondly,
these "ardent Catholics" neither collectively nor
individually, ever encouraged or entertained any
violence towards the "female evangelists" who
dedicate their lives, &c, to this "benevolent
work.. Thirdly, we cannot but attribute to the
Ignorance either of the editor OF his correspond
emit the fact, that he says these ardent Catholics
used on such occasion eeelesastical authority.
In the Catholic church no lay individual nor the
whole mass OF the lalty claim or pretend to claim
any ecclesiastical authority" They recognize
and revere such in the teaching practice Of
Christ's church. Probably the error may have
arisen from the position which the quandam rev.
erend editor of the Transcript once occupied, and
from the source whence he imagined he derived
his spiritual authority. Now, dear Spy, would
not have noticed the article alluded to, il not
THAI on yesterday I respectfully requested the
Transcript to explain why it had inserted such an
article, which, however, it declined Hoping you
will place the zeal facts before the public re-
main your friend, AN ARDENT CATHOLIC.
