Speech of Hon. A. G. Brown.

The able speech of Senator Brown in favo
ofhis bill for the protection Of slave property
in Kansas, viii be found in the columns OF the
MissiSsippian. No true Southern man will
deny the correctness Of the principles declar-
ed in this speech. Whether their application
at the present day to slave property in
Kansas will be ofany practical avail in max
ing her slave State, is a question about
which there will be honest differences of opin-
ion among intelligent Southern men. Ksuch
measure had been adopted while the shave
holders of Missouri were laboring to that end,
and while Old John Brown and his confeder-
ates were laying waste the territory, beyond
all question it would have resulted beneficial
ly to the South. We very much fear, howey-
er, that 'the golden opportunity has been
lost" and that the adoption at this late period
Of what in Douglas parlance is termed "a
slave CODE" will be like locking the stable
door after the exit ofthe stolen steed
1t will be seen that Mr. Fitch, q patriotic
and true hearted Democratic Senator from
Indiana, argues that the Courts are invested
with sufficient authority, under existing laws,
to afford adequate protection but recognizing
the justice of the claim of the South, he boldly
avows that if they are not, he will advocate
such additional legislation by Congress as may
be found to be necessary, and the application to
that object of all the powers of Inc general

from our columns, was based upon che daAnirn-

Since the article alluded to by the Cross

upon which the verdict Of the Board was rem

The Passage Between the Hons Reu-
ben Davis and Van Wyck, of II. 7.

Mr.. Van Wyck, member Of the House 0,
Representatives from New York, delivered
himself few days since, Of one Of the usual
Blacd Republican harrangucs in which some
OF the stale Abolition SANDERS upon the South
were reproduced. lie was interrupted by
Messrs Davis, of Mississippi. and Gar.rcll, OF
Georgia, and entreated by them in manner
not distinguished for its smootiaess We APP
pend the following extract from the debate, as
reported in the Globe:
MR FANwYcK-Sir, 1 will indulge in no
unkind remark to wound the feelings OF any
man, but the charge must be met and history
indicated let the consequences fall where and
as they may. One other gentleman spoke OF
Massachusetts burning witches in The ancient
times. Does he not know that your own peo-
pie burn slaves at the stake? And it seems
to awaken no horror in your minds
Mr. DAVIS, of Miss, Cnterrupting)-I pro-
nounce the gentleman liar and scoundrel. l
pronounce the gcntleman's assertion false, ut
terly false
Mr.. VAN WYcK-Ny time is short, and
hope not tn h.. i..fa-r..,,etns1 -.--.---
Mr.. DAVIS, of Miss-You have no right1s
utter such foul and false SANDERS
Mr.. GAETEELL-I rise to a point Of order
1t is that no member upon this floor has a
right to libel the people Of any section of this
country, ard then deny to the representatives
of that people the right to reply. pronounce
the assertion made by that gentleman fuse
and unbranded.
(Cries Of order on the Republican sidc)
Mr.. VAN WYCK-I have heard such words
before and | am not to be disturbed nor inter-
fered with by any clustering of that sort.
am not here to libel any part of the Union
Mr.. DAVIS, Of Miss.-WiIl you 60 outside
the District OF Columbia and test the question
Of personal courage with any Southern man :?
Mr.. VAN WYcK-I travel any where, and
without fear OF any one For the first eight
weeks of this session you stood upon this floor
continually Ebelhng the North and the people
of the free States, charging them with treason
and all manner Of crimes and now you are
thrown into a great rage when tell you few
facts.
Mr.. DAVIS, Of Miss. Mr.. Chairman
The CHAIR-The gentleman from New
York cannot be interrupted, except by point
of order, and the chair appeals to the gentle
man Of the committee not to violate the rules
of the House. The chair trusts they will not
do so.
Mr.. DAVIS, of Miss-I shall observe them,
sir, if others do not but certainly will not
permit Southern people to be slandered

The Valley Road.

jackson is responding literally to the ap
peal for subscriptions for stock in tbs impor
tant enterprise. More than fifty thousln,
dollars have been subscribed within her cor
porate limits and the canyassers have not ye
had opportunity OF presenting the subscription
books to some OF her wcalthiest ami mos
public spirited citizens.
We have every reason to believe that not
less than sixty or seventy thousand dollars O
stock will be taken by private subscriptions
in this community
The substantial benefits which will flow to
jackson, if this point be made the Southern
terminus of the Road, are manifest; and we
assume it to be a fact that no one who cx-
poets to realize share of these BEN
efits, is willing to permit all the risks to be
encountered, and the contributions to be made
by others, on the ground that the Road will
come here anyhow" This IS a selfish mo-
tive Of action, or rather non-action, which
finds no lodgment in liberal and generous
hearts. Moreover the Road will not be
brought here unless the people who are direct
ly interested in the matter put their shoulders
to the wheel, and go resolutely to work. If
they will but do this, and put forward energies
corresponding to the Importance of the enter
prize, the object will certainly be accom-
plished.
On Monday next, the people of jackson
will be called on to vote upon the proposition
to take in their municipal capacity one hun
dred thousand dollars of stock This may
seem large amount in the eyes Of our tax
payers, but i: is a mere trihe compared with
the benefits which will result from the invest !
nent. From the manifestations of favor with |
which the proposition has been received, we |
have no doubt but it will be sustained with |
one voice at the polls.
In this connection, we desire to remind the |
people along the line of the Road from Jack
ION to Beattie's Bluff, whose interests. in this |
natter are identical with those Of Jackson, |
hat if they will but manifest one half of the |
eal, in the work displayed by the people of
Jackson, and contribute with enc half of the
berality, according to their relative means,
he Road will be built on the survey which
las just been completed. What say the veal
ny and enterprisinS planters of Vernon and
livingston neighborhoods ? If they sincere

resent comparatively isolated condition (in

An Indiana Delegate On Mr. Douglas

The following letter from Infe Deyelin, one
of the delegates to Char eston, from the F.f;h
District in Indiana, has recently been pub
lished.
The Indiana State Convention, it will be
recollected, instructed the delegates from that
State to cast their votes as unit for Sir.
Douglas. Mr.. Deveiin and others, claiming
to be representatives of Districts, refused to
be bound by the resolution instructing. Mr.
Devlin's letter, which we give below, explains
itself:
CAMBRIDGE CRY, Feb. 18th, 1863
Dear Sir:-In reply to yours Of the / tth,
| would say that there is no cause to he at a
loss to know in what attitude | stand, and
whether expect to vote for Mr. Douglas.
would say to you that do not expect to vote
for Mr. Douglas by virtue of any obligation
feel from the instructions of the State Con-
vention. Second, l do consider myself in
structed by the delegates from this District to
the State Convention, and that was to go to
the Charleston C0nreltion mpledgel TO any
man for any place, and | cannot now say
who | will support, but | viii be governed by
what | deem to be the interest of the party
after arrive there. Third, | held at the
Stlte Convention, that they had no right to
instruct me, particularly if those instructions
came in conflict with the wishes of the De-
mocracy of my District, and that | should dis

more paper Of yesterday says:
ave learn that several members of the Ma
tional Democratic Committee visited this city
yesterday, in connection with the movement
making at Washington, to adjourn the Nation
al Democratic Convention to this city, after an
informal meeting at Charleston. They exam
ined our public halls, and received the most
positive assurance from our hotel keepers
that nothing more than the usual rate Of
charges will be demanded in case of the Con-
vention being held here"
As before stated, the National Democratic
Committee have no power to alter the place
of meeting, but the Convention may, of course
adjourn Immediately on assembling, if il
chooses The probability of such action being
taken, however, each reader can judge for him.

This settles the question as to the action oil

the place of meeting selected by the last Con-
vention, and should not change it if it had.
We have seen it stated that the proposition
to remove the Convention, originated with the
clamorous herd who are urging the nonina-
ton of Douglas, and this is one of the reasons
given for keeping the Convention at Charles
