A RinA Tlemncrat 8.8 ha was and is The State Sentinel of last Saturday contains " I in abusive "review" of Col. Lane's speech at Tnrlinnrmlia last week. It commences by stacin that he spoke three hours without tell-Rino-l truth! In the course of the D I "rivipw" tha fo owniü statement is made: TT nno.e. in the tent of Gen. Joseph Lane. . - r . I in Mexico had the hardihood to call that old hero a liar. The lion-hearted General merely observed that enougti naa oeen saia.picKea up brave Colonel retreated precipitately out or tne ' ... ....

tent, saying he "could not be lorced into a every man in Lawrence, if he will do it Iega:Sght with those weapons." His privilege was y an(j protect them. About twelve hundred

to choose the weapons. : The Sentinel tells this as a fact, yet on Col. Lane's return from Mexico, ho was presented by his fellow citizens with a "splendid sword! mi .n i i : i; . :iL v: . 1 Ana sentinel cnarges mm wuu wing a particular liar and a general scoundrel-yet Col.

But read its opinions ol U)L L.ane now, ana renect upon the position. Lane occupied in the Democratic party a year or two ago. Lomment is unnecessary. There is rascality somewhere, but it belongs not to CoL Lane ; Clubbing Sumner South Carolina Chivalry. The Congressional proceedings which we oublish to-day., will be found interesting, as containing discussions on the subject of the outrage upon Senator Sumner. Among all Congressional outrages a viler one was never perpetatcd than this, nor a more dastardly, I co wirdly action, is Brooks a representative of the distinguished bravery and chivalry of South Carolina? Does South Carolina bravery and chivalry find its proper representation in an attack with a club upon an old man utterly unsuspicious of danger, and attempting to beat out his brains? Sumner may have used language in debate, and he doubtless did, not entirely courteou3,and probably unwarrantably severe, but is there not ability and moral courre enough in the Senate, to meet Sumner tongue against tonnge, instead of obtaining the JO ' 1 services of a bully in the House to use more brutal means of extinguishing the light of Sumner's brains ? If it has come to this, that Senators are to be knocked down with clubs, for speaking their honest opinions, let us send Senators to Washington who can handle clubs I istols and knives well, at least handy enough to defend their lives. As there is a Senator to elect in Indiana next session of the Legislature, had we not better send to Washington some distinguished "bruiser," who can handsomely rvnresenf. his Rtatfi in hit mteel muss which xu.vy occur, or be able at all events to defend hin life should he have occasion to express . . honest opinions in opposition to the feelings of ! ith Carolina chivalry?

Sanders: The excitement is so great I can hardly compose myself to write to you. The Border Ruffians have again invaded our State this time with no pretext but to destroy Lawrence, and prevent the Investigating Committee from making their report. You cannot imagine the amount of testimony they have accumulated, and the extent of the frauds

committed by the Ruffians. They have taken Gov. Reeder at Lexington, Mo., by a mob. and ex-Uov. Reeder had to nee the btate. . The Committee are menaced, and the U. S. troops will have a hard time to protect them. Pierce has taken the command of the troops from Col. Sumner and given it to Shannon. The citizens of Lawrence sent a committee to Shannon begging him to protect them from the mob. He sent back word that he would not do it. The messenger was shot at.

They got into a pretty wild spot, inhabited partially by sarpents. They killed three snakes. One was a black-snake over five feet long, which was killed while running up a tree with good speed! We visited the pic nie in the afternoon with a nice young man, and on our arrival were surrounded by sweet young friends. Our companion was told by a dozen chattering tongues that they had a present for him such a nice one, worth very much, sweet, charming, &c, &c and that Add was'nt to have a bit of it. We felt a little jealous as our 8ol looking companion seated himself on lg with an immense paper bundle in his hands.and surrounded by dancing, happy girls proceeded to open it Paper after paper fell 1 - on. and the bundle lay in his lap as he pro. ceeded to open the last covering. But in moment the bundle went ten feet one way and Jour lucky chum ten feet the other. He had found in his lap the coils of an immense and hideous snake! Oh, girls, girls! The serpent betrayed your maternal ancestor at the begin ning of time, and now you are betraying an innocent, unsophisticated young man with black-snake. Well, they made enough fun to forgive the iniquity, anyhow and our friend is welcome to all such presents from the ju venile fair sex.

Holcomb, aged seven years, was drowned in the canal at the Reservoir, at Port Gibson. The boy in attempting to walk across the upper lock gates, fell in the water. A few feet from the spot was a doggery where were congregated a large number of persons mostly drunk. The Clarion says notwithstanding the alarm was given, and the boy rose to the surface, no attempt was made to save him. He was fished out with a pole after life had fled. While searching for the body, one of the devils at the groggery, threw a large stone at the diver! The Clarion is rightfully indignant at the institution which created such devils out of men. ———<>——— (7- We thank Mr; Joseph.

Senate. A message was received from the President returning, with his objections, the bill making an appropriation for the improvement of St. Mary's river. Michigan. . Mr.Wilson briefly detailed the circumstances attending the assault upon Mr. Sumner yesterday by Mr. Brooks, of S. C, representing it as not only against the right of man, but the constitutional privileges of the members of the Senate. Mr. Seward submitted a resolution that a Committee Of five members be appointed by the D.At w, n ;tn O,..'.., stances attending the assault com mit ted on the person of Chas. Sumner, a member of the Senate, in the Senate Chamber yesterday, and that said committee be instructed to report a statement of the facts, together with their opinion thereon, to the Senate.

"J 7, . ' ; ; . improperly reflecting upon the action of a State other than the one repressnted by the Senator speaking A large number of private bills were passed. House. Mr. Washburn, of Me., from the committee on elections, reported a resolution 411 r in 1 i ir mat das. Vj. ui 111., ia nut, auu vv iu. o. Archer is entitled to the seat now held by the former. ' Mr. Stephens has prepared a minority report and the consideration of the subject was post poned till the i) th ot J une. 1 Mr. Campbell, O' Ohio, rising tO a question Of . ., L, 0 1 pi i vile 'e. offered the following: Whereas, on the Izo. ol May the Ho 1. Pres ton, S. Brooks and lion. Lawrence, M. Keitt, members of this House from South Carolina, and other members, either as principals or accessories, perpetrated a violent assault on the person of Hon Charles bumner, a Senator of the United States from Massachusetts, while re maining in his seat in the Senate Chamber, and while in the performance of the duties appertaining to his official station; therefore Eesolved, lhat a select committee of five members be app linted by the Speaker to inves tigate the subject and report the facts, with such a resolution thereto as in their judgement may be proper and necessary for the vindica tion of the character of this House; and that gai-J committee have the power to send for per sons and papers, and employ a clerk, and to 8it during the sessions of the House. A debate ensued tpon the point of order. Mr. Smith, of Virginia, suggested to Mr. Campbell the propriety of striking out the preamble. It assumed as a fact that which could be ascertained as such only on examination. Mr. Campbell was willing to modify the pre amble, which he did, to read, whereas it is repsen ted, &c. lt was due the House and all par ties that the facts should be presented in some authentic form and this could only be done fully and fairly through a committee. Mr. Clingham was satisfied the statement in the preamble is a gross falsehood, but he did not mean that Mr. Campbell had intentionally made an untrue declaration. 1 he gentleman mistook The Speaker decided the proposition in order as a question of privilege, Mr. Ulingman appealed from the decision of the chair. Mr. Craige was satisfied Mr. Keitt was not concerned in the matter in the way stated. Mr. Campbell replied if that should be prov ed, certainly no wrong would be done, Mr. Keitt thought differently. 1 he House required the investigation. His personal re lations with the parties had always been thus of friendship Mr. Payne inquired Is this relation the result of a preconcert of action outside of the Hall or of a caucus :" Mr. Campbell replied Not one word had he heard lisped by a member of any party as to such a course. He was influenced alone by the dictates of his own judgment and sense of public duty. As to who perpetrate! the deed, he only knew from what he had heard; al though he saw Mr. Sumner lying in the ante room adjoining the Senate, with gashes in his head to the bone and blood flowing over him Mr. Clingman repeated that he would leave Mr. Brooks to answer to the law. Mr. Letcher said Several years ago Post master General Hubbard was attacked by Gov. Briggs, a member of the House, yet neither he (Letcher) nor Campbell thought proper to bring the subject to the attention of the House, Mr. Campbell He was not acting in his of ficial capacity at that time. Mr. Campbell moved to lay Mr. Clingman's appeal from the decision of the Chair on the table, agreed to yeas 80, nays 71, The Speaker made a personal explanation. He had not been a party to any deliberation or consultation in this matter, and had no knowledge of the proposition until it was heard from the clerk's desk. Mr. Brooks explained. I take the entire responsibility on myself, and state on my hon or as a gentleman no human being besides myself knew when or where the transaction was intended to be made. Mr. McQuien informed Mr. Campbell that a process had been issued against his colleague Mr. Brooks, who was amenable to the laws of the country. Mr. Campbell said he had no purpose to put any party in a false position, but merely wished to ascertain the facts, there being so many rumors prevalent. Mr. Haven appealed to Mr.Cambell to omit the name of Keitt from the preamble. Mr. Campbell assested. Several gentleman wanted him to strike out the words "other members," but he refused, saying he had reasons to retain them. . Mr. Keitt remarked, as his name had been withdrawn he would say he did not know the time nor the place when the act would be com mitterl. Ha was behind the chair of the Pres-' ident of the Senate with the gentleman from his own State, and he did not see the beginning of it, therefore he had not the slightest preconcert with his colleague. - Under the operation of the previous question Mr. Campbell's proposition was adopted yeas 93, nays 68. " ' 1 1 he Speaker appointed Messrs. Campbell, of Ohio, Allison, Cobb, of Georgia, Greenwood, and Spinner as the committee. , Mr. Allison was excused by request. Sir. Stanton offered a resolution directing the arrest of Judge Lecompte and Marshal Doanldsan, of Kansaa, to be brought before'the House and answer for contempt and breach of

privilege in issuing and serving the process against Reeder. .
