THE IRREPREssTBLE CONFLICT IN THE SENATE.
III there vet be skeptics as TO the determination
Of the South to stand only upon an unmista kable
platform as to the duties of the General Govern
ment and the rights of squatters In u s Terri
tories with reference to the rights Of shareholders
in them, we advise that, In addition to the
speeches of Senators Davis and Mason In the cur
rent senatorial debate, they will also read the
trenchant argument of Senator Toombs and the
briefer speech OF Senator Hammond, spoken yes
terday, and also the speech which Senator Benja-
min Is delivering as we 60 10 press with this issue
OF the Star These arguments each embrace tri-
umphant refutations Of the silly charge Of Mr.
Douglas that while the South has steadily opposed
the doctrine of the right Of Congress to leyisIate
against slavery in U : Territories she has at the
me time, been steadily maintaining (by acqui-
essence in) the rights Of the creatures of Congress
the territorial legislatures-to do that thing;
that being the gist of the last speech of Mr.
Douglas. They 1.-THE speeches of those gentlemen)
when taken In connection with the we'll known
position of Messrs. Hunter, Sidel, Iverson, Chest
nut, Clay, ct al, (of the Southern Democracy of
that body,) also prove, beyond peradventure, that
there is really to be no division OF the South at
Baltimore xtmonth, upon the question Of South
ern rights, as involved in the expected action of
the Convention to assemble then and there. Those
capable CT drawing common sense conclusions
from what occurs in public affairs here, all admi:
that this great debate far it has already pro-
gressed settles the question that the South at
Baltimore, on the 18th proximo, will indeed be
the ''unit' Mr. Hunter advised his friends at
Charleston, by telegraph, to make her, it will be
remembered

HouNDINs THEM DowN.-The experiment Of
going out around the city essayed by some of the
japanese yesterday, we hear, was sufficient to
compel them to remain almost altogether indoors
during the remainder of their stay here. While
al the Patent ONCE they were hardly able to turn
round for the pressure of the crowd upon them
1t is idle to expect that miscellaneous Washing
ton city or any other American crowd will re-
irain1 unless compelled so to do, from gratifying
their curiosity at any sacrifice of good manners
on their part, or of the comfort and delicacv of
the persons to be stared at and otherwise dulv
inspected Unfortunately, the only remedy in
snch case lies in the efficiency of the police.
which here, amounts to just no remedy at all. II
strikes us as being necessary, under existing cir
cumstances, to protect them from rowdy intru-
sion and over curiosity on the part of thoughtless
but not designed imPertinence by the presence
OF squad Of U. s. Marines wherever they NAV
go, to keep back the pressure of the crowd
