StSCKRTAUV AND TREASURER.—It gives US pleasure to announce that William Waring Hab ersham, Fifp, was yesterday elected Secretary und Treasurer of the Suviumub, Albany and Gulf Railroad—in placo of Mr. G. Graut, re* slgued. The salary is twelve huudred dollars. Hoi I road Talk. T'ue out out-of-door talk is that tho Board of Directors of the Savannah, Albany oud Gulf Railroad have lately bad some interesting tills* cuf-sious, leading to very nearly unanimous con. cluaiou* as to the future policy of that Com’, paoy. Humor says that tho advice of cmiueut le gal counsel has been taken us to tho exclusive privileges of tho Bruuswick Company ; and that the reply is, taut they have none, either within or without the limits of twenty miles north of their location. Humor says further, that the Board taws ordered that the whole die* Utuco from the Altaiuuha to the '‘Initial Point’ Vs put under contract. [We should not won* der if that order bas already been curried out.] S te further says that If tho Brunswick Com’ pany shall, within a certain specified time 1 graut the “release” contemplated by tho “Main Tr.uik” charter, the 8., A. and 0. Directors Will do wimt they can to bring about an organ* UaVkm nr the M,t. Gw,with the diet tact under standing that the Alula Trunk shall be con llructod on the line of tho Brunswick survey* 8he adds, however, that should Brunswick fail Wtthln a given time to grant said release, then the 8. A.U. Company will either under their own charter or that of the Main Trunk build from tie Initial Poiutto the town of Baiubridge. The reader is informed that we do not vouch for ibo correctness of either of these announce ment'. Our information comes from no one officially connected with the road—still we sus pect that there is some foundation for U. [communicated.! A Rotten having appeared iu the flouting -Vruv, calling on the German eitiunn of Sav annah, io meet over Mr. Ott’a Bar-room, 1 have been appointed by many re -perl ablest merit an citizens of German ldrth to nay, that they hold no meeting* In their capacity of “German citi zens”-—that they recoguisonosurh citizenship, und are only content to meet under the great name which Is allketoall extended, “American •itizena.’’ The meeting alluded to above, was called by a nativo born citizen,upon considera tions purely personal to himself. ‘ W, H.

We sincerely trust that there are men enough of discrimination and influence In those counties* to suc.eeHnfully briug about st> desira ble a coiiKwnation, and that tho interests of the two roiulii will soon bo united. . tbbtg we feel entirely covtaiu. and that is, if the connection is not made in n short l ime, if never will be made, and Savannah’s do- termination to disregard both the Interests of Thoransviville und Brunswick, forever hereaf- |cr, will he irrcvokobly fixed. \ve do not believe Savannah will ever consent to humble herself to Bntnswlck an lota more than sin? bus alrcadyy doue.

The* iutviosts ol iuy eouslitueutJ, of this Housr, und of all, indeed, who are concerned in the* consti tution Itielf, lu uiy view,have been intimately und Inseparably c'implicutcd. lUciv Mr. iiru' ks wus inlet!opted by Mr Gtddiugs, Ai:.j .Sir, i urn indebted to the House for even this much courie.-y. i was about remarking that there were higher interests than my own involv ed tit tu s mailer. 1 have been content, there fore, to meet personally and in silence all the consequences of thes.* proceeding*. Some time since a senator irura Musuchu- setts allowed huuself, iu uu.olaboraloly prepar ed speech, to oiler a gross insult to my .St.ite uud to a vtmerublo friend, who is my rftute representative and who was absent at tho time. Not content with that, he published to the World, and euculuted extensively, this uncalled for libel on my .State and my blood. Whatever Insults my State insults me. ller history and character have commanded my pious venera tion, und in her deletion ! hope I filial 1 always be prepared, humbly and modestly, to perform the duty of a son. i should have forfeited my own sulmspect, uud pet haps, the goodopiuiou of my countrymen, if 1 bad tailed to resent such au injury, by culling the olfouder iu question I to a personal hccoiiuI . It was a petsotml attiiir, , and m taking vedvess into my own itauds l ' meant no dlsiespect to the .Senate of tho United Stales, or to this House. Nor, sir, did 1 design insult or disrespect to the Statu ol Mnssaclm- (jott-s, 1 was aware of the personal responsibili ties I incurred, and was willing to meet them. I knew, too, that l was amenable to the laws of the country, which afford the sutuo protec tion to all, whether they bo members off’on- grew ov private ckl/.eus, l did not. and do not now, believe that I could be properly punished, not ouly m a court of law, but heie ulso, at tho pleasure uud discretion »t the House, l did uot then, mid do nut now, believe thut the spirit of American freemen would tolerate slander iu high places, and penult a member ot Congress to publish and circulate a libel on another, and then call upon either house to protect hint against the personal responsibilities which ho imd thus Incurred. Hut if I had committed a breach of privi lege, it was the privilege of the Scuut *, uud nut of this House. I was answerable f/ure, and not lure. They had no rigid, as it seems to me, to prosecute me in these hails, uor have you the rignt ill law or under the constitution, us 1 respectfully submit, to take jurisdiction over otfeuces committed against them. Tito consti tution does not justify them iu making mieh a. lequest, nor this House in grouting it. If, un happily, the day should ever come when sec- t ion.d or p.- rty leeliug should run so high us to control all other considerations of public duty or justice, how easy will it bo to use such pre cedents for the excuse of arbitrary power, in cither House, to expei members of the minori ty who may have rendered themselves obnox ious to tho prevailing spirit of tho house to which they belong. Matters may go smoothly euough when one house asks the other to punish a member who is olleusivc to u majority of its own body, hut how will it be when, upou a pretence of insult ed dignity, demanrit nte made of this House to expel a member who huppeus to run counter to Us party predilections, or other demands which it will uot be so agreeable to grant 1 It could never liuvo Lecn designed by the Consti tution of the United .States to exposo the two houses to such temptations of collision, or to exteud so iar the discretionary power which was given to either house to punish Us own members lor the violation of its rules and or ders. Discretion has been said to be the law of the tvruut, and when exercised under the color of the law, and under the influence of party dictation, it may aud will become a terri ble and insufferable despotism. This Hounc, however, it would seem, from the uumistakuble tenuoucy of its proceedings, tubes u d-hlfci.t view from that which 1 deli berately cuteii.ua mcommou with many others. Bo fur as public interests or constitutional rights -re inv»lved, i have uow exhausted uiy tiiuuusofduleucc. tuny, thou, be allowed tu take a more per.-oaul view of the question at issue. Theiuitaer prosecution of this fubject lu the shape it hue now assumed may uot ouly iuv.ilve uiy liieuds, but the House itself iu agitationu which might be unhappy in th ir consequences to the country, it these ecu- sequences could be coc&ued to myself in dividually, I think 1 am prepared and ready to meet them, hero or eiscwucre; and when I use this language, I mean what i say. But others must not suiter ter me. 1 have felt mom ou nccouut of my two friends who lmve been im plicated thau for myac)r, ior they have proven that “there ij a friend thut sticketli closer than a brother.” 1 will not cousttniu gentlemen to ttaaume n responsibility ou my account which possibly they would not on tueirown. Sir, I cannot, on my oum account, assume the respoa-ioiliy, lu the face of the American neo pie, of commencing a eiin of conduct which m my heart of heaiti I believe would result lu subverting the foundation of this govern ment, und in drenching this ball in blood. oN act oi mme, a don my personal account, shall Inaugurate revolution; butweeuyou, Mr. Speak er return to your own home and hear the peo ple of the gieat Noith—and they are a great people—speak of me as a bad man, you will do time the justice to ray that nblnw struck by me at this time would he followed by revoluj tion—and this i|kno\v. [Applause and bls«*n iu the gallery.] The Speakra announced that If any such de monttration* were repeated, the galleries should be cleared. Mr. Brooks, (turning to tho gentlemen's gal lery,) If I have any friends in tue gallery, l ap peal to them to be quiet. * At the same time, Mr. Speaker, I urn uot wil ling to see the constitution wounded through me; nor will I submit voluntarily to a wrong If I can avoid it. I will not voluntarily giVo my uamc to countenance parliamentary mis rule or constitutional aggression. If I am to lie tried again for the mutter now before u a , I will chouse my own tribunal. I will appeal from this House to uiy own constituents, if an expression of puhlio opinion is to be invoked in my case, let my constituents aud my fellow citizens prououmo upou It. From that verdict I will not appeal The temper of the times is not. favorable for a calm nnd dispassionate Judgment of the case; and If by any act of mine, [ can save tho majority of this House from the celoquences ol a rash decision, tiio time may come when the good men who mu pursuing me—and I believe tliero arc such iu tho opposition—will admit that I deserve their thanks ter tho deed. The nxo that is uplifted to strike me may fall upon others nnd fall upon them after they have parted with tho shield ot the constitution to protect them. For myself 1 have only to say that if i can not preserve my self-respect and constitutional rights, together with n sent In this body, I must renounce the lust rather than the former. ! i I have no desire, sir, to continue an argu ment which my friends have exhausted. The determination of the majority is fixed, audit is in vain to resist it- 1 will make no appoal to a packed jury, bbut I protest against Its in consistencies uud its usurpation. Dili tag this session the eliurgc was openly made by a mem ber from tho State of Pennsylvania, on this ilonr, thut unothcr, [Mr. Pearce.] who is his colleague, had been guilty of an attempt to bribe, nud no proceedings were instituted in the cnne. Do the majority of this House pro pose to instruct the American people, from their high'posUlon, that bribery is excusable, and simple iissaualt and battery a crime? Thai, Is the lesson, nud you are the teachers. At the first session of tho hist Congress u member leap ed from his neat, and while the Speaker was in his chair, he passed over several tables to wards h s antagonist, who drew a weapon In defence, and neither gentleman was subjected to tho censure of this House. As was appro priately remarked by my frieud from North Carolina, (Mr. CJtagioau,) the assaulting mem ber—ami it is uot for me to say u word against him, ter personally I like him—has now the most lucrative office in the gift of this House, and was elected by the unanimous vole of the very men who ure now conspiring to inflict punishment upoumo. And in wh,«o behalf is Ibis extraordinary stretch of constitutional power invoked ? Sir, Id) not Intend to violute any rule of tills Ho jsc, or of parilomentaiy courtesy, bat it can* Mt be denied thut he is, par excellence, the rt* presentativo of a sovereignty which is at this Instant iu open, etatuary rebellion—not to a simple rule ot a single house, but to the con stitution aud laws of the united Htntcs of America. Massachusetts sits in Judgment upon me without a hearing, und presents mo for a breach or privilege i Sir, is It uot strange that it did not occur to that sage legislature that its demands upon the Congress of the United States,; relative to a member, was a greater breach or privilege in them than that complain ed of by the member liimsel. ? Whut right, sir, has the legislature of Massachusetts to make uuy demand upou this House ? Sho has not the rignt of eveu instructing the most insignificant member from the Htato, and has by her resolu tions but given additional proof thut she ueith* er comprehends the theory of our government uor Is loyal to Its authority. I have said, sir, that if 1 have committed a breach of privilege, it was the privilege of the Senate. 1ft have in any particular violated the privileges or proprieties of this House, I am uueousclmis of it, aud I challenge every mem ber to specify a single disorderly or improper act. lutuy intercourse with its members 1 have endeavored to observe a civil and respect ful deportment, 1 lmve rendered prompt and implicit oliedience to its constituted authorities, uud I van truly say that which-many who have recorded tnelr votes against me cannot—• and thut is, Unit never once, iu the three years that 1 huve held a seaton this floor, huve I been declared oul ot‘ order. U before the trans action for which a majority have declared me to be deserving expulsion, 1 have offended any officer or member, or been unkind even to au employee, I regret nud am iguuruut ofit. Aud yet, air, tho vote which has jusl been taken, transmits metoposterity as a man unwor thy, iu the Judgment of a majority of my peers, of u seat iu his hall. And ter what ? Tue mem* her trotu New Jersey,(Mr. Petmiugtoo)—the prosecuting moral rar—the thumb-paper member —[laughter]—the FalUtafllun member, who, like his prototype, wus born ulraut four o’clock in the morniug, uud if ho had uot the bald head, is graced with the corporal rotundity [grcui laughter] of Ids predecessor upou his advent into this sublunary world—he says it was for making a “murderous” assault with a “blud geon*,” and ho, forsooth, would have this House and tue country believe, with au inteut to kill. Now, sir, 1 see that a very respectable aud ex* celtent gentleman from Massachusetts has iu his hand a canoof theordinuiy sizo for a gentle man of his age, aud I beg him to raise it for the inspection oi tho member from New Jersey. [Mr. De Wit elevated Ids e«ue.] Now, sir, 1 usU that member to nuswer as a gentleman—1 beg his pnrduii, thut is n word which he cannot couqueUeml—but as u mail on tho witness- stand, is not thun cuue double the weight and thickness of the oue used by me nnd which you have impudently and falsely called n “blud geon ?” Mr. Truftou, (interrupting.) J have noticed several ititcrrinnious in the galleries during tlds discussion, ami I wish to move that the Sergeaut at-Aiius bo directed to clear the galleries. [Hisses lu the gaHelen.] Mr. Wheeler. I object. The Speaker. The motion is not in older Tho Chair announced some timeamcc. that It there was any further disturbance the Sergeant- at-Arms would have orders to clear the galle ries. Mr. Brooks, I agaiu appeal to my friends in tho galleries to Ira quiet. Tho Speaker. Order must bo preserved. Mr. Brooks, (resuming.) If 1 desired to kill the Senator, why did not 1 do it ? You all ad mit that 1 had lura in my power. Let me tell the member from New Jersey that it was ex pressly to avoid tukiug life that I used an ordi- uury cane, presented to me by a friend in Uaiti. more, ucarly three months before Its applica tion to the “bate head' of the Massachusetts Senator. 1 went to work very deliberately, as l am charged—and this is admitted—and spec ulated somewhat us to whether I should em ploy u horse whip or a cow hide; but kuowiug that tho Bcoator was my superior in strength, it occurred to me that lie might wrest it from my baud, and then—for I never attempt any tuiug i do not perform—1 might have beeu compelled to do thut which I would have re gretted the balauia of my natural litc. The question bus been asked iu certain news papers why did 1 not invite the Senator to a I jersoual combat iu the mode usually adopted, Well, sir, us I desire the whole truth to be kuowu ubout the mutter, I will for once notice a newspaper article ou the floor of the House, aud nuswer here. My uuswer is, that 1 kuew that the Senator would uot accept a message; and having term ed tho unalterable datermmutiou tu punish him, l Relieved that the ofl'euce of “seuding a hos tile message,” superudded to the indictueut ior ussuult and battery, would snbject me to le gal penalties more severe thau would be im posed for a simple assault and buttery. That is ray uuswer. For this act, which the Senate, with the soli tary exception of a distinguished gentleman from Georgia, [Mr. Toombs] have pronounced me guilty or a breach of its privileges—for tills act 1 am compluinert of by that body to this House. Your committeo have declared, ami this Hon:-ra has now concurred iu the opinion, that- my offence is to the Senate, and that no rule or order of this body have 1 violated. Now, sir,let me ask why the Senate did uot irotect Us owu rights? The argument lias raeu made here that ex neceaitate this House must have the power to protect itself. If that n-iuciple be true in its application here, why m9 uot the Senate the same powers of projec tion ? But what right has this House to pun ish me for offences committed out ot its pres ence? Agaiu, sir, l challenge uomparisem with auv member, aged or young, pious or not, as to the propriety of my demeanor ns a geutlman and a member. They tell me that my responsibility to this House is because of the general respon sibility which attaches to every member. How far does your authority extend? Across the Potoiuao ? To my own home? Why, air, if 1 go to my homo and find that one or my slaves has behaved badly iu my absence, and J direct him to be flogged, I may Ira charged with—to use the language which is familiar here— “crime the blackest and most heinous;” and when I come back—and come back I will- may bo punished myself for inflicting a chas tisement which, by the common law aud the constitutional laws of my country, I have the right to inflict upou my slave, who is ray prop- erty. Where do you atop in this question of authority of the House ovor its menbers ? As we understand it, there is sense in this author ity controliug a member while the Hoaseisin session and restraining him from disturbing or o.nlATras&ing Its proceedings. If the government was constitutionally ad ministered every citizen would have a direct interest in this much. But if your authority 8 ocs iuto the Senate chamber, and eveu when te Senato is not in session, why should it not go into the aute-vooms and upon the steps of the Capitol? Why not pursue me into the avenue— into the stcauboat-to my plantation? itake the gentlemen who have labored ter my expul sion on their own declaration. They are com mitted to it, and they cannot now evade it. They say that my responsibility is uot becanso of uuy offeuco committed in tho presence of or to this House but bccaoso of tho general and necessary authorty which the House lias ovor its meinlrars. A 1 tell 'SAVANNAH, (aA^i^TUUpAY, JULY ID, 1866. mnbn honorable gehtlftnlen cannot wholly rhT them- radveu oi’un uuni-lcomo presence, they can at least show their appreciation ol'uu aclioji want ing few of the elements of the most audacious crime, and of a spirit cqnal to deeds that ( will not name.” I .Ills eoiu'lurion Us grandiloquent. 1 is as flows I j “And let mo tell you, Mr. Bnenker, that the •pirit of true courage wi Conneetionf still LIVES.” ) Well, sir 1 confess to you that utl other con siderations escaped me when 1 heard Uthe ex pression of so much manhood. He went through ho motions well,and wheu he had finished. I could not resist an expression of ndmirurion of a spirit with which we have not recently been familiar, and I involuntarily aros* from my scat aud made him a profound how. Your amiable colleague, (Mr. Knapp),) who was presented by his constituents with u revol ver, Intended ior my particular benefit,!yester day declared that Massachusetts would “take her own time and placo” to resent what lie and sho both pronounced an insult and liijury. 1 do not intend, Mr. Speaker, to utter ait offen sive, unkind, omen a rough word to that gen tleman -for he is a gentleman socially, t know, but f wish to say Jhfs to him, that T will never plead the statute of limitations in bar'.of the wrath of Massachusetts. On yesterday, however, we had a violent de monstration from the gent I cmau from Connec ticut, (Mr. Woodruff,) who Is now near me, and who, with historical accuracy, (?) has ar-sorted that the Iraues o.f (/onnecticut revolutionary sol diers now Bo in the valleys of the sunny South. That member, with a show of manhood which elicited my admiration, in his written remarks, used the tallowiug language: *• Will not this Dali, with too much reason, continue to Ira characterized as u chamber of assassinsif wo do not uow unite to rebuke and emphatically voudcinu this monstrous vio lation of ull honor and decency ? The country- demands action, and the times are hot ter some expiation of dastardly and brutal outrages, whether committed in the Capitol or on tho plains of Kansas. “If there is not spirit or manliness euough hew to promptly purge this body by proper and constitutional means, at nil events let n trial he made; let the vote come. We shall tlieu kuuw who data screen audacity or give counteuauco to crime.” Again; “1 court no disturbance; hut the privileges of this House shall not, so far as 1 nm concern cd, Ira intrigued. With an endeavor nnd de sign always to cultivate courtesy, I shall not hesitate hero iu my place, or elsewhere, to free ly characterize as they deserve any lofty as sumptions of arrogance, nr any mean achieve ment I of cowardice.” I thought, sir, thut. a gentleman who could utter such sentiment* so handsomely was a ibemnn worthy of anybody's steel, and I deter mined In a very quiet way to treat him as a S entlemun, for bespoke like a man. Tho very rat friend who chanced to come by mo alter the gentleman concluded was my irleiid from Tennessee, [Mr. Savage] about whom I hap- ened to kuow something in Mexico. He was the very man 1 wanted; mid I asked him to iresent my compliments to the geiitlemnn roiu Connecticut, nud say a word quietly in his ear in my behalf. My friend did so, and here i“ a letter giving a report of the interview Washington Citv, July 11,1866. Dkau Biu: I make a brief statement of the main facta connected with my call on tho Hon. Mr. Woodruff, of Comraecticut, who spoke to day In the House of Representa- V A few moments after Mr. Woodruff conclud ed his speech you resquested mo to bear him a message. I Immediately went round to that part of the House where ho sat, Just inside the bar. I told him I Wanted to speak with him, and we had better walk to the wiudow, which we did. I then said in substance, “Colonel Brooks and his friends, myself among the uum- er, understood you in your speech to hold yourself out as a fighting man, subject to the law of honin'; and I am requested t> present you Cole* Brook's compliments, and inquire whether you are willing to receive a communication from him under the ndes of that code.” He replied that ho did uot intend to be so understood; he did not in tend to hold himself out as a fighting man, and It there was anything iu bis speech that would bear that construction, he, like Col. Bingham, would be ready to explain. 1 then told him that I considered that this declaration on his S art ended my mission on the part of Col. rooks: hut 1 would advise him to look over his speech before publication; that I though if ho would examine it carefully he would find points and sentences that would indicate to a man of honor and sensibility that he did intend to hold himself out as fighting man, subject to the code of honor. He replied that he would do so,nnd this ended the interview. I was fully satisfied, us vour friend, believing you to Ira as geuerous as brave, that it could not Ira your duty or inclina tion to press the mutter further. I am, respectfully, Your frieud and obedient servant, John H. Savage. Hon. Preston S. Brookr. Burlingame, anil ,my«*lf, renders It ncrewnry that the subjoined ififhtnratwln should Ira appen ded to my speech: Mr. Burlingame, in a fair and nrauly way, admitted hie responsibility for any language used lu Ida speech, aud disclaimed any inten tion to reflect upon tho poroonal character of Mr. Uhookh, or to impute to him in any respect a want of courage; hut, discriminating het ween the man and the act to which lie was culled upou to allude, he had characterized the latter only in such manner as his representative duty required him to do. The above is a statement nmdc by Mr. Bur lingame In refreiiuQ to the passage lu ids late speech which refered to Mr. Brooks. It is In the handwriting of Mr. Speaker Banks, and was acknowledge by Air. Burlingame in our pittsence, and was satisfactory to us as frieuds of Mr. Brooks. 1 W. W. BOYCE, T. 8. BOCOOK. July 16. 1866. NEW Ain’ERTISEMEXI K. URMiUT.

Now. it oeems to me that, if my rtMitonM- Uy to this Hquho for au offeuco committed elswherc is because of my membership, it is u logical couclusiou that my responsibility ceases when that relation is dissolved. Whether or not tho authority of the Sonute roaches me af ter my relations to this House have terminated it la not for mo now to inquire; but, in Justice to myself, I take occasion to say to tliu coun try, that if tho Senate take that view, I shall recognise its authority. Now, sir, let me in form tho honorable members who have been pursuing me bo fiercely, that my present atti tude was long since foreseen, aud that I am altogether prepared for any of iu emergencies. I kuew with whom I bad to deal, oud my re signation has been for more than ten days la tho hand of the governor of South Carolina, to take eflbct tho very instant that I announce my resignation upon this floor. But, before 1 make tho announcement, 1 desire to my u word or two in reference to what has been Huid of me In debate and elsewhere. I saw in some of tue New York papers that a certain feminine gentleman from that State [Mr. Mor gan] had applied to me the term “villain.” Well, that was not a word “Bpoken in debate,” aud I ouly allude to it to advertise the indignant gentleman that I have seen the word aud know that it was spoken in New York, and not here iu debate. He need not bo much alarmed: and, if he will “hold still” when I get hold of him, l'U not hmlhlm much: and this U all that I can say about that matter here. And agiin: ”1 say again, 1st the vote coma; and If Now, sir, I have to say to that member, as Uncle Tnbey (of Tristram Shandy memory) said to the fly; “Go, little wretch, there is room enough in thte world for both you and me.” [Immoderate laughter.] Another quo tation has just come to me, and I will give him also the benefit of Unit: “You can hurt no man’s tame by your 4.1 won! : Your pen is Just a* harmless us your sword.” I now desire the attention oi my quondam friend from Massachusetts [Mr. Cumins]. He alluded in the opening ot his speech to our past personal and family relations. I have to say to him that my attachments do not set so loosely upon me as to lie castoff unnecessarily, and that. 1 yet take deep interest In the welfare of his excellent family. Had our relative posi tions been reversed, l should have said nothlug, or I should have done more than he has done. From his place In this House—in his repre sentative character, and at the time armed to the teeth, and not with a rifle hypocritically and cowardly disguised ns a walking cane, and carried tathe handB of a poltroon and pup py, but with the genuine articles—he quoted the language and endorsed the sentiment of the Chevalier Webb, of poor .Tonathau Cilley notoriety, as follows: “Looking at it solely ns an insult to the coun try, a trampling upon the constitution, and an outrage upon the sanctity of tho Senate cham ber, it wob an outrage which merited death on the root (Tom any patriot present who was in a position to inflict tno punishment” Now* Mr, I say to that gentleman that no map hg| the right to wear arms who does uot InUnatouse them. In my country the cock that crows and won’t fight is dispised by the hens, and even by tho pullets, who known thing or two instinctlv. [Great laughter.] His chlvalrlo spurs dwindle before the charges of the valorous gout, and bis place is—out of sight. 1 feel, sir,that “the blood more Btlrs to hunt tlio lion than to chase the hare;” but if my quondam friend has any ambition, under the direction of the Chevalier Webb, to pay tho “patiHot,” let him or le preux cheva-ier, separately or together, or backed by the whole black republican crew, come take the life which they soy is forfeited. Now, Mr. Speaker, I have nearly finished what I intended to say. If my opponents, who have pumusd mo witu unparalleled bitterness, are satisfied with the present condition of this affair, I am. I return my thanks to ray friends, and especially to those who are from the non- slaveholding States, who have magnanimously sustained me, and felt that It was a higher hon or to themselves to be just in their judgment of a geiitlemnn -than to Ira a member of Congress for life. In taking my leave, 1 feel that it is proper that I should say that I believe some of the votes which havelraen cast agaiust mo have been extorted by an outside pressure at home, and that their votes do not express tho feelings or opinions of the members who gave them To such of these ns havo alveu their votes And made their speeches oittnu constitutional principles involved, and without indulging In personal vlUiflcation, I owe my respect. But. sir, they huve written me flown upou the histo ry of the country as worthy of expulsion, and lu no unkindness 1 must tell them that for all future time my self-respect requires that I shall pass them os strangers. And now, Mr. Speaker, 1 announce to you and to this House that I am no longer a mem ber of the Thirty-fourth Congress. [Mr. Brooks then walked out of the House of Representatives, and was soon surrounded by bis friends.] AFFKND1X.
