Senate before the Speaker had announced the de
cision. I he Senate Chamber was then taken possession of by the mob, and most inflammatory speeches addressed to them by several of their leaders, and that hitherto sacred apartment has subsequently, whenever the Senate attempted to assemble, been filled with rioter, threatening violent interference with the business of the Senate until their demands were acceded to. To such a fearful height was the excitement carried, that the Speaker of tho Senate and several of tin members wore compelled, under threats of personal injury, to escape by the windows of the Capitol. The unlawful nnd riotous assemblages of the misguided and dangerous men, have been continued several times, at the State Capitol and Court House of tho county of Diuphiu, and the Senate is now unable to proceed with their legitimate fuuetions, and they accordingly announce to the peoplw of tho State, that their representatives cannot with safety attend the Hills of legislation, until th insurrectionary and nototi3 assemblages, by which they are now threatened with violence, arc quelled by the arm of the Constitutional power of tho State, or a return to reason and duty shall induce them to disperse.

Tho address says. 'Nothing less than a treasonable attempt to destroy the present government, and erect another in its stead.
