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

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

called by a nativo born citizen,upon considera
tions purely personal to himself.

The Main Thuxk.^Wo were informed oa
yesterday, by a gentleman from Tbnma* county,
that lie was present- at the several railroad meet
ings recently held In the counties east of Thom
as, and that they were all in favor of a con-
fl*xi»n ol tho Brunswick with the Main Trunk
Bond. 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-

have heretofore fell that other und higher in-
icrc.’tUnuu uuy w.iich aUl*ot 4 unj pet*jou>iily were
iuiulved iu the proceedings of this case. 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.

“And let mo tell you, Mr. Bnenker, that the

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

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,

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.]
