and the like, for the Union? All they desire
in their mad fanaticism is the abolition of slavery

the discovery, crush out and forever annihi,ate

CONGRESS-.

Tuesday, Dec. 17.-In the United States Sem
ate resolution was introduced by Mr.. Sumner,
to allow negroes to take out Patents, which was
appropriately referred. Mr.. Wilkinson brought
forward a resolution providing for the expulsion
of Mr.. Bright, of Indiana, on the ground of hav-
ing written certain letter to Jefferson Davis.
Mr.. Bright rose, and stated that he courted an
investigation of the charges against him, ex-
planned the pature and object of the letter which
he had written, and frankly declared his entire
opposition to the coercive policy of the Govern
ment. The subject was referred to the Commit
tee on the Judiciary. The resolution previously
introduced by Mr.. Trumbull, enquirug of the
Secretary of State whether he had ordered the
arrest of any persons in the loyal States, and
under what law, came up for consideration, and
was discussed at length. Messrs. Dixon and
Wilson deprecated the introduction of the reso-
luton. Mr.. Trumbull defended it as Just and
necessary. He denied the right of any officer o
the Government to assume despotic powers al
will, and denounced arrests, at the whim anG
caprice of a Cabinet Minister, as ga gross abuse,
which ought to be corrected by law. 1T wa:
at such times as these he said, "that the foun.
dations of tyranny were laid" The discussion
was continued by Messrs. Kennedy, Pearce
Wilson, Fressenden and Doolittie, and, finally
the resolution was referred by a vote of 25 yea:
to II nays.
In the House Of Representatives the first par
of the session was taken up with the quarre
that had sprung up between Mr.. Conway, O
Kansas, and Mr.. Fouke, of Illinois, in relation
to the battle of Belmont. Mr.. Conway rose te
a personal explanation in which he denounced
Mr.. Fouke as "a blackguard and a scoundrel.
Mr.. Fouke retorted by calling Mr.. Conway "s
disgrace to his State, to his nature, and to hu
manity." Mr.. Vallandigham offered resolu
ton declaring it to be the duty of the Presiden
to sustain Captain Wilkes in spite of any menace
or demand on the part of the British Govern
ment and pledging the President the full sup
port of the House in vindicating the honor o
the Government of the people Of the United
States against foreign power. 1t was referred

THE TIMES.
PORT TOBACCO, MD.
THURSDAY December 10, 1851.

CHRISTMAS, with all its jolification and mer-
riment, will be upon us before the issue of an
other paper, and in consideration of the necessary
loss Of day next week we shall not issue the
Times until Friday morning. Perhaps however
we err when We speak of merriment at Christ
mas. Our people have no cause for merrment
this season as heretofore War, terrible war,
troubles and devastatcs the land; roaring can
non, seeking the blood of man, may welcome in
the Christmas holy,lays instead of the merry
Christmas gun. Hordes of soldiery, clad in the
garb of grim war, hold concourse instead Of the
former Christmas party, and the camp fire takes
the place Of the Christmas log. And amid all
this we are told that we "have cause to be
thankful" Thankful for what? True, we
Should be thankful to Divine Providence that it
is no worse, but can we give thanks for this
state of affairs? Truly, we think this Christ
mas, unlike any former, should be spent in the
deepest humiliation and prayer Sackcloth and
ashes should take the place of Christmas gew-
gaws, an9 prayers for those in authority should
be sent up from every fireside-prayers, earnest
prayers, that their future virtue may equal their
past wickedness and their hearts be rendered as
soft as their heads.

that the Federal troops had met the enemy they
had been met by a superior force, and that the
Cnnfederates bad not been driven back one foot
Mr.. Lovcioy asserted the same fact and attribu-
ted the reverses Of the Federal arms to the want
of competent generals. The bill was passed.
A call of the House for the official documents
in relation to the Balls Bluff disaster has led to
the interposition of General Mcclellan, who
states that it would be injurious to the service
to allow the documents to be made public at
this time

THE LATEST WAR NEWS.

The latest dispatches from Kentucky report
a battle as imminent near Bowling Green. The
Federal troops in four brgades are preparing to
cross Green River, and General Buckner, with
$4,000 troops, was in position to oppose their
passage.
Reports from kentucky seem to indicate that
Gen. BuelPs plan to capture Zollcoffer had fail
ed in consequence of the failure of Gen. Thomas
to get in his rear. Gen. Schoepf was at Somer-
set with about five thousand men, and it was
feared that he would be forced to fight Zolcof-
fer before the arrival of Gen. Thomas. Later
reports state that Zollicoffer was advancing, and
reinforcements were probably on the way to
assist him. Reinforcements had also started for
Gen. Schoepfs encampment. 1t is quite likely,
therefore. that there will be a battle soon at or
near Somerset. Humphrey Marshall is invad-
ing Eastern Kentucky with formidable force
Gen. Crittenden was said to be at Cumberland
Gap with one thousand FIVE hundred men, and
a large force in the vicinity.
From Missouri the news is meagre. General
Halleck was busily completing his long contem-
plated descent Of the Mississippi river. Gen.
Price was at Osceola with from ten to fifteen
thousand men and fifty-three pieces Of artillery,
intending to move uorthward. General Slack's
division had crossed the Usage river, and anoth-
er division crossed subsequently. McCulloch
was at Springfield. Accounts from Sedaiia state
that three Federal divisions were marching from
various points on Price, and that battle was
imminent.

that severe engagement had taken place be-

sa@The war news from England created
great excitement on the New York Change on
Monday. Cotton, coffee and teas were with
drawn from the market or only offered at
large advance. Satpetre advanced from eleven
to fifteen per cent, and birthstone was kept out
of the market. Sterling exchange advanced to
10, which is above the point rendering the
shipment of specie profitable.
