SENATOR BROWNIsG'S SPEECH.

We have been waiting sometime to ma
room for IN extract from a very able and
statcsmau,like speech delivered in the United
States senate, by Senator Browning of tins
state On the various cOnfscati0n and cmanci-
patton bills before congress. We ask especial
attention to his remarks, found in this paper,
to-day. After perusing his able and search
ing exposition as to their mconstitutionallty
one will be surprised to learn that any mem
Der having any regard for his oath, will sus,
tain them. Most Of the bills ON the subject
in congress disregard entirely the Bill OF
Rights in the constitution, and are an utter
subyere0n Of that instrument II any Of them
pass in the form condemned by Mr.. Brown
ING, it will be idle to talk about having q con
sttu,on, or having any standard Of civil lib,
cry. Mr.. Browning being Il republican OF
the strongest sect, and his sentiments being
shared IN by Senators ColIamcr, OF Vert Doc
little, Of Wis, Cowan Of Pennsylvania, and
other republicans, it will not be said, we pre-
sumo that the speech wac dictated by any
sympathy for the rebellion, OF with the rebel
leaders

We must again repeat our caution to the
people Of Illinois, Missouri and Iowa, not to
receive notes of the stump-tail banks of New
England, Pennsylvania and other states.-
They are all swindes--sont here for the very
purpose of swindlmg. No banks Of reputn.
bic character in New England will engage in
any such practices Take no such notes. for
They are away from home, and the design Of
the parties is to swindle The United States
treasury notes, or the bank Of Missouri furn

beyond tins no man will go unless he wants
to be cheated.-.N. Sotrt Republican.
