CDSG2 MIRA SESSION.

Ga the ih of july Congress will assem-
tie IN extra session. The Senate, inslud-
ing the Borier States, will be composed OF
81 Republicans and % Opposition, with
! 1 vacancies.
The House as far as elected will stand
Republicans l0i: Opposition 81. OF the
balance, thirteen will be chosen in Virgil
MIA, on the 25l Of May, the regular day
for the State election. California, with
two members, Kentucky ten, Maryland
six, North Carolina eight, Tennessee ten,
and Kansas one, will have to call special
elections. These elections will add one to
the Republican side aud 4S to the Oppo-
sision. 1t will then stand Republican 05 !;
Opposition SO; vacancies 33. 1t is not
probable that the Border States will be
fully represented. This will give the Re-
publicans the President and both Houses.

DOUGLAs' SPEECH BEFORE THE
ILLINOIS LEGISLATURE.

Az the invitation Of the Legislature,
Senator DouGLAs addressed both Houses
of the Illinois Legislature, in the Hall of
the House, on the evening Of the 18th Of
April The telegraph furnishes the fol
lowing report Of the speech:
He said war OF determination and
oppression is now Icing wa5ed against the
Government Walker boasts tina, on the
lst OF May the Confederate dag will wave
from the dome OF the National Capitol :;
and on the 4.h of July the army viii oc,
cupy Independence Hall. Already this
piraticsl flag is unturled against our com.
msrce, and the navigation OF the Missls-
sippi is DISTRACTED and we are required to
pay tribute at Its mouth. The question is
Shall We allow this to proceed, or meet tie
| oppression? He said there was no cause
for this rebellion that no evidence had
been presented that their Institutions were
insecure. The fugitive slave laws we're
never executed with more Grlnness than
recently at Chicago. Are We to inauyu
rate the Mexican system in the United
States? Had the candidate Of the disu.
nionists been elected, and the Republicans
rebelied | would have used my best efforts
to crash them. The first duty of every
American citizen is obedience to courts
and laws. Ia my opinion it is our duty to
lay aside ali party creeds aud platforms
until you have secured the country from
her assaiiants. | vi never acqu,ese il.
, any warfare upon tho constitutional rights
OF institutions of tbs South If any at
tempt is made to inTade these rights, or
incte servie Instruction among them,
would be the first to rush to the rescue ;
yet, they must distinctly understand that |
will never acqulese in their INVASION Of
our constitutional rights. 1t is 4 crime
against constitutional freedom to attempt
to guelch the United States out of the map
OF christendom.
lie appealed to the men of all parties
not to allow their passions to get the better
of their Judgments, aud not attempt to
manutaclufe partZan capital out of the
miseries and struggle of their country.
To Democrats he would say, don't allow
party considerations to make you traitors
The most stupendous and unanimous pre-.
parations for war is the shortest way to
peace. The greater the unanimity, the
less blood will be shed. Every friend of
liberty must feel that this cause il his own.
The seeded States have proceeded to OBJ
struct our most inaliensnle rights of navi,
cation of the Mississippi River. The PEG
pie of the Mississippi Valley can never
consent that they be excluded free access
to tho Gulf Of Mexico. Twill neve. cease
to urge my countrymen to take up arms
and fight to the death in defense Of these
rights It is war OF sell defense ! be.
lieve it is n duty We owe to ourselves, our
children and our Con, to protect and sus
tain our Government and Flag from every
assailant.
lie was frequently interrupted with en-
thusiastic applause.
