The Kansas Debate in Congress, We are indebted to Judge Douglas for a copy of his speech on the Kansas question, delivered in the Senate Dec. 9th. The speech is justly regarded as one of his most brilliant efforts, and was listened to with breathless attention by acrowded galley of spectators, The position which he aesumes, is, that Kansas should not be admitted until the whole constitution framed by the Lecompton Cenvention is submitted to adirect vote of the people; that the people of Kansas had a right to be consulted not only en the slavery question, but upen all other questions affecting their lecal interests; that the refusal of the Convention to submit the constitution to the judgtnent of those who were to live under it, was in direct conflict with the great principle of the Kansas-Nebraska measure, and for that reason the whole matter should be referred back to the citizens of Kansas. He contended that even the slavery question was not fairly submitted, as a man was not allowed to vote on that, except on condition that he voted for all the ether provisions of the Constitution, which many could not conscientiously do. He pointed out several objections to the constitution, which would be sufficient to induce him, were he a citizen of Kansas, to vote against it; this, he remarked, was not his business, but the people of Kansas had a right to be consulted in the matter. Mr. Bigler, of Pennsylvania, answered Judge Douglas, and contended that the slavery questien was the only real issue in Kansas, and as the people bad an opportunity to vote on that qnestion there was no valid reason that Kansas should not be admitted. He urged that the people of Kansas, bad the opportunity been given them, would have voted down the constitution, from a spirit of factiousness, and not because they disliked its provisions. In the course of a running debate which followed, between the two Senators, Mr. Bigler dieclaimed baving any authority to speak for the President, The position which Judge Douglas has taken on this question, is, in our opinion the right one, and with bis known ability aud tact in enforcing his views, there isa fair probability that he will be successful in this instance, notwithstanding the President entertains different views. The Democratic party in the northwestern States are almost unanimously with Douglas, and no doubt most of the Democratic members from that section will vote to refer the whole matter back to the people of Kansas. Bat little idea, however, can be formed as to the ultimate fate of the Lecomption constitution, as few members of Congress had at last accounts expressed any opinion on the subject. A rogue ne’er felt the halter draw, With good opinion of the law.’’ Mr. Lee, member of the Assembly from El Dorado, has introduced a bill into the Assembly, to suppress mobs, insurrections, &c. The design of the bill isto put a stop tothe scones of mob violence which are almost daily being enacted in some parts of the State, and for that purpose contains some very stringent provisfons. The Union, Ala, and other papers, which are in the habit of praising the acts of mobs when it pays, don't like the provisions of the bill at all. The past course of the papers that now oppose the bill is a sufficient reason why it should become a law. Lawa are designed to protect honest men, not those who are coutinually setting them at defiance. A Cuainese SwinpLer.—We learn from the Butte Record, that a Chinama. named Ab Cum has “taken in’? a number of “melican’’? men about Oroville, by pretending to put them on the track of the murderers of Griswold, In Cum was freely furnished with money by his _ white assistants, by promising each a share of the reward. The last aud severest stroke of this celestial “confidence man,’’ was to telegraph to John Sale of this county, telling him that the murderer was found, and to come and bring money for expenses, etc. Sale went to Oroville, and with the others acknowledges the “gel.” Ah Cum was arrested for swindling, and lodged in jail at Oroville. The last we heard of Sale, he was wishing himself back in Nevada, ‘‘in the bosom of his family!” sdeinananniatiteenmnsegernnennenrrnan, Tax Vor.unteers.—The determination of the War Department, not to raive volunteers for the Mormon war, will rather dampen the military ardor of the young men in this State, who have exhibited such eagerness to fight “Brother Brigham.’’ It is stated, however, that one or two ef the new regiments will be enlisted in California; but itis not probable that even one regiment can be raised here. However ready Califernians might be te serve a few mouths as volunteers, few will be found whe ean be induced to enlist in the regular army. Sxmxer & Dinpie.—The suit we spoke of in our last issue, as likely to show that this celebrated firm are the legal owners of a quartz lead in Grass Valley, of almost fabulous value was tried in the District Court last week. The Court non-suited the Plaintiffs, and so the star ef the hopes of Skinker & Dibble went down behind a cloudy horizon. We have made arrangements to publish a full report of the cause next week. Favors.—We are under obligations to Géo. Welch, of the Pioneer Book Store, for the first delivery of Atlantic papers, received by the Golden Age. J. E. Hamlin, of Broad street Beok Store, was also on hand with a liberal supply. The Alta Express has furnished us, as usual, with State exchanges, during the week. A Cuaxcez or Venve bas been granted in the divorce suit of Hall ve. Hall, and the case will “be tried in Sacramento. The applieation was made by the defendant, who alleges that Judge Searls is 2n important witness, and therefore not eligible to try the case. Pos. Docs.—Messrs.

The 35th Congress was fully organized on Monday, Dec. 7th. Hon. Benj. Fitzpatrick, of Alabama, was chosen President pro tem. of the Senate, and Hon. J. L. Orr, of South Carolina, Speaker of the House. Mr. Allen, of Illinois, was elected Clerk of the House, and Mr. Steadman, of Ohio, Printer. Col. Harris, of the Union, was chosen Printer of the Senate by a strict party vote. On the 8th the President’s Message was read in the Senate. Mr. Douglas, immediately on the reading of the Messag,e opened the Kansas ball, and in a few cautious, but significant remarks indicated his determination to oppose the admission of Kansas under the Lecompton Convention. Mr. Stewart, the Democratic Senator . from Michigan, took substantially the same view . of Kansas matters as did Douglas, and Senators Bigler, Mason, and Davis, indicated their agree. ment with the President. On the 9th Mr Douglas made a set speech in opposition to the admission of Kansas. until the whole Constitution was submitted toa direct vote of the people. His speech was a brilliant one, and is considered among the best he ever made. He was replied to by Mr. Bigler, who is supposed to represent the views of the President. He aunounced his determination to vote for the admission of Kansas on the first allowable opportunity, in order to localize the difficulty in regard to that Territory. On the 13th the Kansas discussion was continued in the Senate. Mr. Green, of Missouri, defended the position of the President, and was replied to by Mr. Douglas. who was in favor of ignoring both the Topeka and Lecompton Constitutions, and taking a new departure on this vexed question, In the House, Mr. Cox, a Democratic member from Ohio, supported generally the views of . Mr Dou,las. He was replied to by Mr. Haghes of Indiana, who deprecated the agitation of the subject in the House as premature, and dangereus to the harmony of the Democratic party. . Tae Lacncn or THE LeviaTHaNn.—On the 28th of Nov. the work of launching the Leviathan was resumed, and continued up to ome o’elock on Monday, the 30th, when the keel of the vesse] was within four inches of the water, which was gradually rising under ber. The launch wag resumed at two o’clock on the Thursday after. On the power being applied, the ship moved directly, and passed over the first foot in eleven minntes. At 2:35 she bad moved altogether 472 inches at the bow and 474 at the stern. In one case she moved 12 in-' ches at once, and afew minutes afterward 11 . inches at another move. The Leviathan had been moved fifteen feet further up to 4:30 p.m., . when operations were suspended. During the, afternoon, a scaffold gallery, erected in a landing to the river, gave way, and a great number . of persons standing on it to see the launch were . precipitated to the ground; five were taken to the hospital. anparently dead. Her total distance moved since the first attempt Saturday is 48 feet 7 inches forward, and 40 feet 7 inches aft. She has still, therefore, . nearly 250 feet more to go hefore she will be . entirely ciear of the launching ways; but it is, thought quite within the limits of probability . that she will accomplish this distance in a very short time. Two Days Later From HonekonG.—The London Times publishes a correspondence from Kongkong under date October 10th. The news is two days later than received by the Starr King, which arrived here December 5th : All chance ef negotiation having been cut off, Lord Elgin ha. concerted measures with his Excellency the naval commander-in ehief for . the assault and capture of the city of Canton. It would appear that the Admiral bas arranged with the whole available force to move up te Canton on the 31st of the current month, and it is said the French forces will co-operate; indeed. it is thought that the Russian Admiral Polatine wil! also offer his aid. The Celestials are making defences, and following out the orders from Pekin, which are decidedly sach as to induce hostilities.

The Kansas Debate in Congress, We are indebted to Judge Douglas for a copy of his speech on the Kansas question, delivered in the Senate Dec. 9th. The speech is justly regarded as one of his most brilliant efforts, and was listened to with breathless attention by acrowded galley of spectators, The position which he aesumes, is, that Kansas should not be admitted until the whole constitution framed by the Lecompton Cenvention is submitted to adirect vote of the people; that the people of Kansas had a right to be consulted not only en the slavery question, but upen all other questions affecting their lecal interests; that the refusal of the Convention to submit the constitution to the judgtnent of those who were to live under it, was in direct conflict with the great principle of the Kansas-Nebraska measure, and for that reason the whole matter should be referred back to the citizens of Kansas. He contended that even the slavery question was not fairly submitted, as a man was not allowed to vote on that, except on condition that he voted for all the ether provisions of the Constitution, which many could not conscientiously do. He pointed out several objections to the constitution, which would be sufficient to induce him, were he a citizen of Kansas, to vote against it; this, he remarked, was not his business, but the people of Kansas had a right to be consulted in the matter. Mr. Bigler, of Pennsylvania, answered Judge Douglas, and contended that the slavery questien was the only real issue in Kansas, and as the people bad an opportunity to vote on that qnestion there was no valid reason that Kansas should not be admitted. He urged that the people of Kansas, bad the opportunity been given them, would have voted down the constitution, from a spirit of factiousness, and not because they disliked its provisions. In the course of a running debate which followed, between the two Senators, Mr. Bigler dieclaimed baving any authority to speak for the President, The position which Judge Douglas has taken on this question, is, in our opinion the right one, and with bis known ability aud tact in enforcing his views, there isa fair probability that he will be successful in this instance, notwithstanding the President entertains different views. The Democratic party in the northwestern States are almost unanimously with Douglas, and no doubt most of the Democratic members from that section will vote to refer the whole matter back to the people of Kansas. Bat little idea, however, can be formed as to the ultimate fate of the Lecomption constitution, as few members of Congress had at last accounts expressed any opinion on the subject. A rogue ne’er felt the halter draw, With good opinion of the law.’’ Mr. Lee, member of the Assembly from El Dorado, has introduced a bill into the Assembly, to suppress mobs, insurrections, &c. The design of the bill isto put a stop tothe scones of mob violence which are almost daily being enacted in some parts of the State, and for that purpose contains some very stringent provisfons. The Union, Ala, and other papers, which are in the habit of praising the acts of mobs when it pays, don't like the provisions of the bill at all. The past course of the papers that now oppose the bill is a sufficient reason why it should become a law. Lawa are designed to protect honest men, not those who are coutinually setting them at defiance. A Cuainese SwinpLer.—We learn from the Butte Record, that a Chinama. named Ab Cum has “taken in’? a number of “melican’’? men about Oroville, by pretending to put them on the track of the murderers of Griswold, In Cum was freely furnished with money by his _ white assistants, by promising each a share of the reward. The last aud severest stroke of this celestial “confidence man,’’ was to telegraph to John Sale of this county, telling him that the murderer was found, and to come and bring money for expenses, etc. Sale went to Oroville, and with the others acknowledges the “gel.” Ah Cum was arrested for swindling, and lodged in jail at Oroville. The last we heard of Sale, he was wishing himself back in Nevada, ‘‘in the bosom of his family!” sdeinananniatiteenmnsegernnennenrrnan, Tax Vor.unteers.—The determination of the War Department, not to raive volunteers for the Mormon war, will rather dampen the military ardor of the young men in this State, who have exhibited such eagerness to fight “Brother Brigham.’’ It is stated, however, that one or two ef the new regiments will be enlisted in California; but itis not probable that even one regiment can be raised here. However ready Califernians might be te serve a few mouths as volunteers, few will be found whe ean be induced to enlist in the regular army. Sxmxer & Dinpie.—The suit we spoke of in our last issue, as likely to show that this celebrated firm are the legal owners of a quartz lead in Grass Valley, of almost fabulous value was tried in the District Court last week. The Court non-suited the Plaintiffs, and so the star ef the hopes of Skinker & Dibble went down behind a cloudy horizon. We have made arrangements to publish a full report of the cause next week. Favors.—We are under obligations to Géo. Welch, of the Pioneer Book Store, for the first delivery of Atlantic papers, received by the Golden Age. J. E. Hamlin, of Broad street Beok Store, was also on hand with a liberal supply. The Alta Express has furnished us, as usual, with State exchanges, during the week. A Cuaxcez or Venve bas been granted in the divorce suit of Hall ve. Hall, and the case will “be tried in Sacramento. The applieation was made by the defendant, who alleges that Judge Searls is 2n important witness, and therefore not eligible to try the case. Pos. Docs.—Messrs. Chase and Young have eur thanks for pamphlet copies of Gov. Jobaeon’s Meseage. fects so as to injure, hinder or delay his credi hopes of sharing in the rewards offered, Ah . t Congressional ; ie Gov, Johnson, in his message, #ecommends. 7,5 Cooxry Dept.—No action has yet been that the State be divided into two Congress-. 4 6n by the citizens of the county, in regard ional distriets, and that the year for electing . , tne disposition of the county debt.

The 35th Congress was fully organized on Monday, Dec. 7th. Hon. Benj. Fitzpatrick, of Alabama, was chosen President pro tem. of the Senate, and Hon. J. L. Orr, of South Carolina, Speaker of the House. Mr. Allen, of Illinois, was elected Clerk of the House, and Mr. Steadman, of Ohio, Printer. Col. Harris, of the Union, was chosen Printer of the Senate by a strict party vote. On the 8th the President’s Message was read in the Senate. Mr. Douglas, immediately on the reading of the Messag,e opened the Kansas ball, and in a few cautious, but significant remarks indicated his determination to oppose the admission of Kansas under the Lecompton Convention. Mr. Stewart, the Democratic Senator . from Michigan, took substantially the same view . of Kansas matters as did Douglas, and Senators Bigler, Mason, and Davis, indicated their agree. ment with the President. On the 9th Mr Douglas made a set speech in opposition to the admission of Kansas. until the whole Constitution was submitted toa direct vote of the people. His speech was a brilliant one, and is considered among the best he ever made. He was replied to by Mr. Bigler, who is supposed to represent the views of the President. He aunounced his determination to vote for the admission of Kansas on the first allowable opportunity, in order to localize the difficulty in regard to that Territory. On the 13th the Kansas discussion was continued in the Senate. Mr. Green, of Missouri, defended the position of the President, and was replied to by Mr. Douglas. who was in favor of ignoring both the Topeka and Lecompton Constitutions, and taking a new departure on this vexed question, In the House, Mr. Cox, a Democratic member from Ohio, supported generally the views of . Mr Dou,las. He was replied to by Mr. Haghes of Indiana, who deprecated the agitation of the subject in the House as premature, and dangereus to the harmony of the Democratic party. . Tae Lacncn or THE LeviaTHaNn.—On the 28th of Nov. the work of launching the Leviathan was resumed, and continued up to ome o’elock on Monday, the 30th, when the keel of the vesse] was within four inches of the water, which was gradually rising under ber. The launch wag resumed at two o’clock on the Thursday after. On the power being applied, the ship moved directly, and passed over the first foot in eleven minntes. At 2:35 she bad moved altogether 472 inches at the bow and 474 at the stern. In one case she moved 12 in-' ches at once, and afew minutes afterward 11 . inches at another move. The Leviathan had been moved fifteen feet further up to 4:30 p.m., . when operations were suspended. During the, afternoon, a scaffold gallery, erected in a landing to the river, gave way, and a great number . of persons standing on it to see the launch were . precipitated to the ground; five were taken to the hospital. anparently dead. Her total distance moved since the first attempt Saturday is 48 feet 7 inches forward, and 40 feet 7 inches aft. She has still, therefore, . nearly 250 feet more to go hefore she will be . entirely ciear of the launching ways; but it is, thought quite within the limits of probability . that she will accomplish this distance in a very short time. Two Days Later From HonekonG.—The London Times publishes a correspondence from Kongkong under date October 10th. The news is two days later than received by the Starr King, which arrived here December 5th : All chance ef negotiation having been cut off, Lord Elgin ha. concerted measures with his Excellency the naval commander-in ehief for . the assault and capture of the city of Canton. It would appear that the Admiral bas arranged with the whole available force to move up te Canton on the 31st of the current month, and it is said the French forces will co-operate; indeed. it is thought that the Russian Admiral Polatine wil! also offer his aid. The Celestials are making defences, and following out the orders from Pekin, which are decidedly sach as to induce hostilities. A Russian envoy has also arrived in the Chinese waters, and is reported to be on good terms with the agents of England and Franee.
