rhirty-Finh Congres--F,rst Session.

WASHINGTON, Feb g. HOUSE. - The
galleries were densely crowded, including
many ladies.
Mr.. Keith rose to q personal explanation,
saying: The House would remember that
its proceedings, during the session Of Fri
day, were broken in upon in an unpleasant
manner. 1t was due to fair dealing that he
should assume to himself all the response
biity for the violation of its order. dignity
and deeorum. He was the aggressor, and
whatever of responsibility properly attached
TO that act, belonged to him alone. 1t was
also due to Justice that he should make
whatever PREPARATION was in his power to
the dignity and decorum Of the House thus
violated. He did this in the expression of
his profound regret at the occurrence.-
Personal collisions are always unpleasant,
very seldom excusable, rarely justifable,
never in legislative body. lie felt in full
force the responsibility he had assumed in
saying he was the aggressor, and that the
entire responsibility properly belonged to
him. In this connection he had but one
other remark to make, and that was that
whether any blow was directed at him or
not was more than he could say, at least be
was unconscious of having received it.
With this explanation he parted from the
subject.
Mr.. Grow said he had been taught in
childhood that all fights among men are
disgraceful to human nature and to the
Christian community and this is especially
the case when they occur among lawmakers,
in the midst of their deliberations Ripper
years and the force Of education had satisfied
him that this lesson was good and true, yet,
the art OF seifdefence had been recognized
as one Of the inalienable rights Of man,
to be exercised on all occasions and under
all circumstances, whenever necessary for
the protection OF life or property. At the
last sitting Of the House be found himself
Unexpectedly engaged in the first personal
conflict Of the session. He rendered to the
House most cheerfully whatever apology
was due for the violation of its order and
decorum, and no one regretted more than
himself the occasion for this violation of its
order. The House Immediately adjourned.
Mr. Douglas made several Intellectual
efforts to take up his resolution, offered on
Thursday last, calling for information rela-
tive to the facts attending the formation of
the LecOmpton Constitution.
The Kansas question came up as the
special order.
