be more according to your will and ideas OF
personal rights, that your eldest son, charg-
ed in general terms to defend your personal
safety, should shoot the assassin striking at
your life, or that be should wait till your
tardy or palsied tongue could give him ex-

whose hypocrisy is shown BY their
iudi ference to oil Southern violations to the
G Constitution, and whose treachcry is betray-

here and everywhere. The people were i'm
patient now and he feared it would turn to
indignation if the State hestated. There
could be no compromise but the Constitution
Of the United States.
Mr.. Powell wished to enter his protest
against the admission of these men. 1t look
ed too much like overthrowing the Constitu-
ton.
MIR. Latham said he had supposed MT first
that the Western portion Of Virginia had Sc
rnded IN that casa he vras se~a. . rasl - ~
pose it. He would not recognize in any way
this most damnable doctrine of secession
that Government was ever affected WITH
But this was not the case. Here was the
great State Of Virginia and her Legislature
had regularly elected, and the Senate was
bound to admit these gentlemen, rs Senators
from Virginia.
Mr., Salisbury said he wished it distinct
ly understood he had no sympathy with ex-
PEELED Senators, for he believed with the
Senator from California that the doctrine OF
secession was most damnable one, leading
to the most dangerous results. The discus
sion was carried on by johnson Of Tenn,
Salisbury, Bayard, and Ten Eyck TO some
length.
Mr.. Powell asked for ayes and nays.
Mr.. Ten Eyck said he was glad the 6ena.
tor from Kentucky (PowelD had asked tho
ayes and nays. The Senator put himself for
ward ~ the champion OF the Constitution
and arraigned the President for . violation
of it. He (Ten Eyck) did not think neutrali-

not for Us il against US.
Mr.. Powell, said Ky. desires peace and com
promise. She does not wish to imbrue her
hands in the blood of her bro hers. She has
BEN, and always will be, ready to fghht
against foreign enemies. Her attitude should
be admired by all true Christian men. She
wished 70 be peace maker.

COL. sIGEL REINFORCED.



We copy the following from the St. Louis
News Of Saturday, giving two days later I'd
vice. from Col. Sige:
The intelligence Of Col. Sigel's tight with
the State troops, near Carthage, reached
Springfield on Saturday, the 9th, and on the
receipt Of it, Gen. Sweeny instantly marched
with force OF 600 men, consisting OF three
companies OF Col. Ssloman's regiment, one
OF Sigepe, two OF bicNeil's, and six Of
Browns, /, reinforce Col. Sigsl and support
his retreat. The troors left Springfield on
Saturday night, At half past IL O'Clock, and
marched 10 Mt. Vernon, . distance Of IS
miles, by 3 O'Clock, .. m, the next day
There they halted TO rest from the excessive
fatigue OF their march, and next morning
Col. Sigel's force arrived.
On Monday morning intelligence Vas re-
ceived that the State troops were advancing
on Mount Vernon to attack COL. Sigel again,
and the latter ct once ordered his artillery !,
four pieces. TO the edge Of the prairie, four
miles from the town, to meet the enemy and
keen them at 4 distance till the remainder Of
bis foIce could come NJ.
Il vas thought, At the time tho latter WAS
written. there would be a second fight. Col.
Sigel's artillery had only AZ rounds Of cart
ridges to each gun, and this disadvantage
would be seriously felt 10 protraetsd fRbt.
Liaus. Clark eaiimates the losa austainnd
by Col. Sigel 10 killed and missing, Of the
Carthage ii yht, at 80, and that OF the State
force at 800 to 500.
