FORTY-EIGHTH CONGRESS-
SENATE.

| Icdu tu0 I0maIho VI AheO
day relating to- his (Brown's) re-
marks made in the debate On Ell
day last. When.the clerk concluded
| the reading brown said he had not
replied to Ingalls, remarks yester'
day because be did not wish ia
sceak under irritation, VIII CHI In
CALLS remarks were calculated &c
provoke. He called the attention
of the Senate to the insulting and
opprobrious language used by tue
Senator from Kansas 1ngalIs) TO-
ward member OF the Sen
ate who could not repel
such insults wit 1Out violating
the rules which all Senators we've
in honor bound to obey. Brown DID
not wish to glaze over this matter
The charge of the Senator from
! Kansas was that of classifying the
record and committing forgery upon
the records of the Senate. This
language was deliberately planned
insult, and uttered not only IN VIC
lation of the rules Of the Senate bnt
in defiance of the authority OF the
presiding officer.
The chair said the Senator from
Georgia was out Of order.
BrOWn-Then sir; that remark
Is withdrawn under the ruling OF
the chair. The remarks OF the
Senator from Kansas, Brown said,
were not made hastily, but after
two days had elapsed. and after, as
Brown supposed, satisfactory dis~
claimer from himself had been
made of all offensive imputations,
notwithstanding the reinsurance
given in the Senate by Brown, the
Senator from Kansas had persisted
in his purpose OF insulting a Sena>
tor.
The chair thought this observa.
ton out OF order, 81
Brown submitted to the Senate
whether 1t would permit such an
outrageous an inexcnsable breach
of its privileges to go unnoticed.
In regard to TIE insinuation of want
of courage, he ventured to say
there was nothing in the personal
character or antecedents Of the Sen,
ator from Kansas to make him an
object of apprehension or to ex-
cite the fears OF any man.
There was no place so safe as this
Senate chamber for man OF dis
Greet courage to buster and parade
his vituperative rhetoric. No other
Senator would have used such
language as the Senator from ksn~
sas Lad used under protection of the
and he Qngslls) would not
use it except under prc tction OF the
Senate.

Georgia would allow the remarks

Woulo be contented, but if these re-
marks were to be amended by inter-
polaUions and observations, not de-

,eptlble only Of an offensive inter-
after the record had been
made up by the reporter. AS to the
Of the Senator from
Georgia upon his Qngalls) personal
and appearance he begged {
o say to the Senator from Georgia
hat he (Ingalls) mere distinctly
vowed all that he had hitherto said,
q any sense that the Senator from s
Georgia saw Git to attribute TO it,
nd that he Qngalls) did not shield l.
himself behind the privileges of the
senate chamber. II
The usual breathing pause fol- ID
owing the delivery of this sentence '
vas characterized by dead silence in L
ne chamber and crowded galleries. {
When ingalls, added: "Thls is all a
esire to say in response to the gen.
leman," a general buzz was heard t
nd the galleries were instantly half
mptied. t
