The Discussion in Congreee


Both houses of Congress are engaged in
the discussion of tho Kansas question. On
the 4th instant, our new Senator, Hon. j. III.
HAMMOND, addressed the Senate at length.
arguing the constitutionality as we'll as the
necessity, of the admission of Kansas under
the Lecompton constitution. Much anxiety
was manifested to hear Mr.. HAMMOND, and
the report which has reached u.s. speaks of
it as an able and effective effort The speech
has not yet been received
Mr MILES,, the representative from Char
lesion, has delivered his maiden speech on
the Navy restoration bill. His remarks are
thus complimented by the editor of tho Pc
tersburg (ya.) Democrat, who was present :
ltwas his first effort on the floor, and though
impromptu was marked by eloquenco and
ability, and enlisted the attention of tho en-
tire house. He is regarded by those who
know him as man of unusual promise.
A majority of the special committee ofthe
house have reported in favor of the immcdi.
ate admission of Kansas, under thc Lecomp-
ton constitution. The house has already re-
fused to receive it. A minority report, fthe
black republican stripe, will also be made !;
and then, when "Greek mects Creek" the
tug Of war will commence in earnest. The
republicans, 1T appears, still have working
majority in tho house.

best Interests, more devoted to her welfare

of the universe, in the mysterious workings
of His providence, has thought ft TO remove

drop the tear of sympathy over his dust,

BY REQUEST.
From the Southern Enterprise, of Jan. %, 81
Having secn the names of several gentle
men mentioned us successors to our present
distinguished Representative, Hon. JAMES L..
0RR, should he decline a reelection, and not
wishing to disparogc the claims of any one,
VIC would suggest the name of Col. f. p.
JONES, tho present Treasurer of the Upper
Division, as IL gentleman of fine talents and
attainments~-ofhigh tone and uncxception-
able character. Col. JONES was born in Lau.
rens district, raised in Spartanburg, and for
tho last twenty years has been citizon of
Greenville, whore he married. lie has held
high position in tho Militia as an officer of
ability has twice represented his district in
the Legislature, aud now occupying the hon
orable and trustworthy position Of Troasuror
of the Upper Division. In all thnsc different
positions, ho has discharged their duties with
honor, fidelity and ability.
Col JONES e at entered College at the Univer
sity of Georgia mt Athens; from thence he
went to the University of Virginia, at Char
louisville, where he completed his education
lie is a gentleman of unbounded popularity
in his own district, and we might venture to
say that no one would be more acceptable to
the people. He is distinguished for his zeal
and tearlessness in whatever course he adyo-

With much pleasure wo live nlace to tho
Communication of our correspondent "Yox

the present efficient and popular Ropresen-
tatlyc Hon. j. l.. Orr to reelection, the
names of several gentlemen have been placed

condod by q hearty response, from MANY yo-

SCISSORS have been the foremost mon of ali
times and all nations. ~
Men of intrepid courage and infcxible
resolution who saw as clearly before them
as beacon light the ends for which they
toilcd Men who were ''liuked TO their de-
termination with iron, bands, and chung to
it with the tenacity of fate" who believed
their work could be done, and that they
were predcstined to perform it. Possessed
of this exalted attribute, man becomes all
most divine. His prophetic vision pcne-
trates the unexplorcd future, not by the
aid of Juggling spells and incantations, but
by the clear light of the immc"tal flame
within his own bosom, kindcd into life by
the fuel of knowledge, and nourshed into
brilliancy by the breath of ambition.
TO illustrate the effects produced by a
full developement oftheir intellectual for
ces, / have selected character from Amer
IAN History; man whose unwavering
fancy of will and feryid warmth of pas
sic have made their impression on the
age and served no secondary part in form
ing the character and determining the well
fare OF this nation. Whcn,y G. Calhoun
was about to leave Yale College, the vener-
able Dr. Dwight inquired of him, "What
do you intend to do 2" 'Ilnean sir, to be
President of the United States" was the
noble and high-souled reply, That remark
was the index Of his character How near
ly he reached the gaol, to attain which
would have been the realization of his boy
ish dreams, all of MS remembers and we
also know he sacrificed the prospect of en-
joyng that dignity for another and dear
cr interest, to be the champion of Southern
principles and the defender of Southern
rights. His very independence, manlincss
and integrity were perhaps the chief obsta-
cles that prevented his complete success.
He was cmphatically the Statesman of the
South, though his patriotism was not bound
ed by Carolina or Mason and Dixon's line.
His genius had not the grace and splcndor
that adorned the eloquence of Clay, nor the
elaborate elegance which clothed the pc
riods of Writ Hc did not attain the grave
and solemn grandeur that invested the por-
tcntous words of Webster, nor delight in
the rich imagery and chssic lore of Sumner.
His style was stern, chastc, manly and Sc
we're. His character was the impcrsonation
of both intellectual dignity and moral cle-
vation. 1t was upright and unbending,
like granite column, though not chiscled
into perfect symmetry by the highest art
and cultivation. His iron frmness, his
eaglc-cycd watchiulncss, his power to Will
and energy to DO, were gifts that all true
men possess, and good men rightly use
"a statesman, friend oftruth, of soul sincere,
In action faithful, and in honor clear;
Who broke no promise, served no private end.
Who sought NO title, and who lost no friend.
