writes from Washington under date Of the
10Th inst, ~ follows:
81 regret to state that there 10 very little
hope for the admission Of tho new State OF
Kansas into the Union. The feelings OF the
South have been 80 much excited that they
will not grant anything that may look like
the slightest concession TO the North. II 10
now said that even the Southern Americans
will resist the petition Of Kansas for admis-
sion.

The He rnIa ON Pryor.

y
The following 10 an extract from the arti-
Gle in the N. Y. Herald which called out the
wrath Of Mr.. Pryor
ga moro ungentlemanly course of conduct
than that pursued by Pryor could hardly be
found outside Of the Five Points" And
further: Time was, until Pryor, when
svirginian' was synonymous With gentle
man, Nor was his vulgarity allowed to
pass unrebuked by his colleagues, one Of
whom MIR. Milson1 called Pryor to order
twice, and vindioated, to q certain extent,
the name and fame OF the Old Dominion
from the tone OF the debate, il is evident,
also, that other Southern gentlemen regret
ted the occurrence, and believed that the
House had been degraded BY IL. The con-
Duet OF Mr.. Pryor is, after all, what might
readily have been expected from him. He
has simply transferred his brutality and Vi
oience from the columns Of the newspapers
TO the faor Of Congress. He il mental
shoulder. hitter, pathological pugalist, a
moral bully. These traits marked him as an
editor, when he always assailed his political
opponents with the vilest personal abuse,
and he has carried them with him into thu
House. The stain which he affixed upon
Journalism now blots the records OF Con.
gress. The characters OF the other South
ern members should not be judged by th,
standard OF such person ~ Pryor."
The real fact in the case 10, that both Pry
or and the Herald have confined thems 9 " Q,
to the substantial truth in their description
OF each other. They are fit political asso 81
ases, and fit leaders of the Democracy.

WASHINGTON, Jan. IS.
HOusE.--Mr. Bristol spoke Ia SO low
tone that but few Of his words reached the
reporters gallery. Hs was understood 70
dcprscate the extremes OF both parties; even
IL an organisation ID not now effected, be
believed our rights would be guarded until
the people have time TO make another cleo
ton. and send other Representatives here in
1861, whom appropriations would be made to
raw our debts. Kentucky never would look
10 disunion ~ remedy for political rea-
sons, she viii be the last to 60 out OF the
Union.
Mr.. Woodson rose TO a personal explana-
ton, denying the truth of dispatch in tho
n. Z. Herald, that he intended TO propose
the adoption Of the plurality rule. Believing
the election Of Speaker under such . rule
would be unconstitutional, he would never
vote for or favor il in any way. He indica-
ted that the resolution he intended to offer,
from which had probably emanated the dis
patch, proposed on successive ballot to drop
the candidates receiving the lowest number
OF votes, until the contest Ia narrowed down
TO the two highest, which would necessarily
result in an election by majority.
Hstton, Hoops and Logan made personal
explanations.
MIR. Ashman wished to offer a resolution
that the reporters Of the N. Y. Herald be ex-
PEELED from the galleries. No reason was
given for this resolution. Mr.. A. said be had
the resolution read for information. Ii any
one desired 20 discuss 1t he would consent to
let it lie over.

sourhern Opinion.

Mr.. Iverson, of Ga, in his speech in the
Senate the other day, spoke Of Edward Ev-
erett, Robert Winthrop and others, AZ "old
and inert fogies, who never controlled vote
or gave form or shape to . political meet
ing"
MIR. Iverson ia mistaken. When politics
required Of men but little moral courage, and
not much beside mere argument and oratory,
they did hep to shape and govern public af-
fairs. Since then they have not. They are
men Of argument, not action Of intellect,
not courage; of shrinking softness, not Of
manly strength and persistence. The times
do not need such men, therefore they are not
employed, but are left to their books and
their social pleasures.
We remember their grace and culture Of
intellect, the gentleness and beauty Of their
lives and manners, as things delightful 10
themselves, and fitted both to guide and
sdorn the politics Of q less turbulent and
trying period; but we remember them al
most as . dream, for these men, although
living and moving among us, still in the flush
Of their physical vigor, have in the short
space OF ten years nearly passed out Of sight
and became merely historical personages.

MFR. Caiiienael, Cashier OF the Hartford.
Bank, testified to day, before the Senate
committee, that Brown deposited with him;
that he never paid money for Browne check
10 any one but Brown, except in one case to
Col. Forbes, to whom he paid 5000 on
Browns check. k
This is . contradiction of Forbes state
ment in his letter, In which he stated that he
never received any money from Brown.
Calender also testified that when Missou-
rians invaded Kansas, he and other Connecti-
cut men advised Brown to go there, and he
gave him a Sharpe's rife and told him to
use il.
Calender was informed that the commit
tee did not care about such testimony.
Mr.. Blair, Of Callensville, testified that he
made Browne pixies, and that Brown paid
him for them himself, and be knew no other
parties connected with him in this matter.
Mr.. Blair ID Democrat, and made CON-
tracts with Brown as he would with any 9TH
er person. He did not know for what pur-
pose the weapons would be employed.
4 Had ballot been taken the result would
have been about the same as formerly-no
change having taken place sufficient to pro-
duce result on either side.
For several days a report has been circu-

Americans will pursue the course indicated.

;buse OF South Carolina.

There are some politicians in Virginia whom
South Carolina could not satisfy let her course
be what it may. Last winter, when she
sopcbt conference, consultation and co-opera-
ton with Virginia, and deputed and sent her
able and eloquent Commissioner to entreat
Virginia 10 act in concert with tho Southern
States, these men denounced South Carolina
with nnmessured bitterness for seeking con-
sultation and conference. And now when that
State has acted for herself alone, not risking
again the insult Of rejected c~ounseis, these
snms men dcnouncc the State for not consult
ing Virginia.
We predicted last winter that the rejection
of the Conference would entail ~unnumoered
woes upon the South and the Union; that
when Black Republicanism had triumphed,
South Carolina would not again ask con-
ference, and that when the opponents Of Mr..
Memmimger's mission called for 4 Southern
Convention South Carolina would not re-
spond. Ali these things have COM to pass.
Most respectable opponents of the Southern
conference last winter are lhS aofoSales VI q
Southern Convention now. Had they acted
wisely then, the Union would now be in the
enjoyment of peace and quiet. But they
thought proper to spurn South Carolina in the
hope OF building up a Union party at the North,
and when that has signally failed, these same
nca dcnounce South Carolina for not consult
- ,.,, .I,o c.oo,5 tippo
We refer to this rejection Of the conference
last winter, not for the purpose of animadver-
sion, but as warning to all parties, that errors
of the past may be, as far as possible, redeem
ed in the future. The experience Of the past
NAV do much good, if wisely regarded by the
approaching session Of the Legislature. The
continued abuse Of South Carolina does no
good TO the cause Of the Union in Virginia.
On the contrary, it is calculated to arouse SYM
pathy ard feeling for her cause, and impels the
people 10 use every exe,tion to place Virginia
by her side. Men may regret her position, 1--WE
do pot,) and yet abstain from useless vitupera-
ton. B!ac!; Republicans at the North are at
present fully engaged in this matter, and it
would be well for newspapers at the South to
leave to them a monopoly Of all such abuse.
