The United States Senate was yesterday sub
jeoted to the infiction Of hsranguo from Mr..
Sumner, Of Massachusetts. His theme, of course,
was the vili6caou of those States which still re-
tain the institution of African slavery, and vitu-
peratiOn agans, those citizens who are the ho lerS
Of slaves.
Some persons had supposed that tho only good

traeI upon this individual some years ago. (Which
temporarily caused him to be considered a martyr.

tue silence it would secure from him, and the re-
lief. at least during that time, to the Senate and

the state of his health no longer paraded, and
his HhereAbOuta and wanderings have lost all in

still lives. And the surest way was tho one which

notoriety throughout the land as the most malic-
ious viupera,ive,nnd soundly thrashed man upon

We have always thought it "a shame that tho
Democratic and Abolition parties Of Massachu-
aetts amalgamated and sent Charles Sumner to the
United States Senate, but that's no reason Why we
should not denouncs the brutality Of Senator
Chestnuts remarks in reply to his late speech.
We do not think that any gentleman, though we
have hither thought MIR. Chesnu. one, could have
been guilty of such remarks. If the South Caro-
lima Senator was anxious to denounce and grossly
insult some abolition member Of Congress for an
anti-slavery speech, he certainly knew good
many vi them who had made fer coalser and bitter
er and more ferOcious ones than that Of the Massa
chusetts Senator. Mr.. Chestnut spoke of Mr..
Sumner as q coward, and we have no sort Of doubt
that he was perfectly sincere in his opinion. lie
meant to be discreet in The selection of the object
of bis attack. lie didn't ike the thought of being
a cracked Chesnut.

Mr.. Charles Summer. of Massachusetts,, has
made in the Senate of the United States. the
grand demonstration the subject Of slavery,
which il has evidently been the task of his life to
prepare i'll the most efsctuaI form. since the cane
of Preston Brooks left his ripes upon his person
for the malignity of his former public invective
against the men and tho society Of the Southern
States.
lie went into theS> nate to deliver The most furious
ly bitter and malignant trade against slavery and
sayeholdug, against the slave States of this Union
and the Shareholders of those States which hat
ever been uttered in this country by man above
the standard of Fred Douglass or Garrison. Fol
hours he continued to pour out all the boarded re-
sentiment of his heart, in o strain OF insult tC
which the abusiveness which stung Mr.. Brook
into the imprudence of chasting him into notorie
ty was dulcet commonplace.
The Southern Senators sat in coutemptuous 81

his heart of is foul passions and his brain Of the
unwholesome load of revengeful thoughts.

under color Of ecturng about European affairs to

such suspicion came aud listened to my lecture,
they must have been undeceived Be assured, al
so, that if undertook to stump Wisconsin at
all, it would be for anything else rather than the
Democratic party.

com Lnatons-to isolate themselves no longer as
the Irish votc'-to merge in the several organiza
tons of their fellow citizens, and be guided in al
public affairs by their own views of right and the
political interest of the community in which they
live. For example. should wish to see Irish cit
izens Of Northern State, acting with the party
which desires protective tariff for home industry
and also the largest possible extent of territory
for free labor. If the South felt aggrieved,as wei
she may, she has her remedy.

doctrines and measures are unjust to the Souil
and injurious TO Southern rights in this Union

hitherto against their obvious Industrial inter

struggle. Ii is too late /; the South caunot be say

WAS IT AN AErIsLAvERY TRIUMPH

The Chicago Press Press aud Tribune, in com.
menting upon the lnte action IN the Methodist
Episcopal General Conference on Slavery, appears
to have fallen into an error. Il speaks of the new
chapter relating to slavery, adopted By the Confer
euco, as "a radical change, covering the whole
ground, and by the construction given to tie els.
cipline, securing it would seem, tho same result
that would have been arrived at by the chdhge OK
Rule which the Conference fofused.'
Now the real effect of the change appears to us
precisely the reverse. Instead Of the new chaptet
being more autislavery than the old, it is prac;i
cally far less SO. Here are the two chapters, side
by side

FROM the Missouri Democrat.

Monday last Senator Sumner broke the long ST.
lence, which the murderous assault, committed
on him four years ago, compelled him to maintain
at tie peril of his life. Uprisen from tho dead as
il we're, be lays the first offerings Of his resusotat'
ed energies and genirs on the altar of that cause,
for the advocacy Of which he was so cruelty sick-
On down. No feeling of revenge finds lurking
place in his breast. His wrongs contribute no
waters Of bitterness to the majestic tide OF his elo-
queuce. On the contrary. his speech is, imbued,it
is easy to see, with tho nObest sentiments of mag
nsnimity aud charity. lie divests the question
whoh ne discusses Of oil personality, declaring
that vengeance belongs to the Lord alone. The
allusion to his dead enemy, characterized, as it 49,
by delicasy and sOlemnity of sentiment, could on
ly emapsts from pure and lofty nature.

The Synod of Mississippi has publ he'd "A cate
ehism for the religious instruction of the coored
people : in which the following questions and
answers occur:
@ Are not the servants bound to obey thelr
masters
A. Yes. the Bible e1hurts servants to be ODE
dent to their masters, and to please them in all
things, not answering again.
z. If a master be unreasonable may the slave
disobey?
A No. the Bible says. Servants DO subject to
your masters with all fear not only to the goot
and gentle but also to the froward.
Q. What does the Bible say to servants on thi
subject?
A. They are to obey, not with eye service t.
men. pleasers, but as the servants Of Christ
O. IL servants suffer unjustly, what are they a
do2
A, They must bear it patiently.
O. Ought servants to rebel against the autbori
ty of their masters
a. No. it is sin against God and man.
O. Should servants ever run away?
A. No, if they do, they sin against God ant
man.
Q, How do you know ,hs
A. The Bible tells us that tile Apostle Pau
found servant who run away from his master
and he sent him home.
Q..Why did not Paul conceal bin that hO nigh

remarkable powers, eloquent and learned, and q
monomauiac. In his deiverances upon the slave

SPEECH UF SUMNER.

This is marvellous productions both in sub
stance and in length. The author has spent the
last four years in its composition and conned over
all that could be said in the smoothest and most
insulting manner against slavery and slavehol-
ders. After reading it we excused Brooks for
whipping him. We dJht,th!nk any other appro'
priate answer could be given, except silent con
tempt. The delivery of such TRADE in such q
place proves the author destitute OF taste Gnd judg
mcnt aud of the common instincts Of gentleman,
His facts brought up to diSparage Southern men
are over baiaucsd by this speech made by II
tree State man 10 the Senate. No SOutherG man
was ever guilty OF such an outrage on decency, as
this man 81 mner, the Senator from Massaehu'
setts.
He talks about freedom of speech Because we
hold to freedom Of speech we are not required
to listen to every blackguard who chooses to dis
grace his manh, cd by his Sulgarty. The DISCUS
ting ribaldry of the ruffian we eau set down to
passion; but the elaborate etfusionS of malice flow
irum low instincs, incapable of restraint. and in-
competent to feel ito depraVity.

This infaihodAiy notorious Massachusetts Sena-

Imperative manner the legality and morality Of
Saveholding in the Southern States. The Kansas
speech of Mr.. Sumner in the spring Of 1856 was
of such q character to excite the deesta,iOn Of
every true man in the South. The base misrepre'
sentatons OF Southern life aud tho personal attack

We believe that the buy

with that rule in our

Now we do not think any one can fail to see:
lsi That the old chapter excludes from official sta.
ton in the church oil Shareholders who can legally
emaucpate their slaves. while the new chapter
provides for no such exclusion.
%, That the old chapter fOrtids travelling
preachers TO hold slaves, while the new contains
no such ptolibtior. :.
Sd That the old chapter inculcates the necessi-
tv of teaching slaves to read the bible and attend
church, while the new chapter does not.
| In short the adoption of this new chapter is, 70
all intcnts ami purposes, recession from the high
an,i-savery ground heretofore occupied, since the
new chanter contains at tho very utulost nothing
but an admontion against slaveholdiug. while the
old contains substantial Legislation against n.
This view is confirmed by the adoption 10 Con-
ference subsequent to the passage fthe new chap.
ter of resolution declaring it to be advisory ID
practice, decaratve of principle. and not statu.
tory 10 its Mature So. instead of role Of action,
the church has got an sbstraction, and in place
of a statute, its Discipline has been adorned with
a glttering generality
i The explanation of this remarkable state Of
things so widely different from what seems to
have been apprehended by the ultra antislayeFy
portion of the Conference, is perhaps to be SoughT
in tho following creumstenees. The new rules
4 which was rejected contained the whole pith and
marrow of the change-since it directly proai6ited
slave holding by members of the Methodist Church.
This rule, had it passed, would have rendered un-
necessary any more emphatic DECLARATION against
the institution in the chapter. But the rule hsv'
ing fallen to the ground. the chapter was not only
useless without IT, but, as is easily seen il was an
abandonment OF already existing prohibitions Of
=, slave holding, in the Discipline.
If the friends Of the majority report bad hseR
g possessed of discretion at all PToporiioned 20
their ZEAL il is not probable they would have yos-
ed for that report after il had been eHSus'sd OF
the vital principle. as It ia, they appear 20 have
