{Correspondence of the Const. & Republic | Milledge villf., Jan. 13, 1854. Mr. Editor : The proceedings in the Senate, to-day, have been of a stormy and exciting char acter. A long and desultory discussion has ta ken place on the Senatorial question. Os tips discussion I had prepared a full sketch, which has been misplaced, and I am, therefore, compel led to give your readers a more meagre outline than I had intended. The President announced •rthis morning, as the business in order, the unfin- vished business of yesterday, viz: the motion of Mr. Smith to take up his resolution bringing on ■ the election of U. S. Senator. Mr. Anderson, of Chatham, moved to lay the motion ol Mr. Smith, ol Coweta, on the table. ; Considerable discussion followed on this motion, which Mr. Anderson finally withdrew. During this discussion, Mr. McGehee,of Hous • ton, moved the previous question, and went on to -show that the Whig party had set the example . of electing a Senator two years in advance. Mr. Miller hoped the Senator from Houston would withdraw his call for the previousquestion That Senator refused to do so, when Mr. Miller moved an adjournment, which was lost—yeas, 41; nays, 45. The Senate then refused to sus tain the call for the previous question—yeas,42; nays, 45. Mr. Miller then replied to Mr. McGehee, read ing from the journal of 1815 a series of resolu tions introduced by President Stell,disapproving the policy of electing a U. S. Senator, two years in advance. Mr. McGehee inquired of the Sen ator from Richmond how he voted on those res olutions. Mr. Miller replied against them, and for good reasons. Mr. McGehee said the rea sons were, his party was then in power. Mr. Miller continued his speech, and asked the Sen- ator I'roin Bulloch how he voted. Mr. Cone re plied in favor of them, because he then believed the Senator who would likely be elected, would act Wm. H. Seward; but he did not see any such danger now. Mr. Miller said that his par ty had never gone into an election of U. S. Sen ator two years In advance, except on the incom ing of a new administration, and even that would be no excuse for the Democratic parfy. The question recurred on the motion to take up the resolution, which was carried—yeas, 44 ; nays, 43. Mr. Miller moved an adjournment, which was lost —yeas, 44; nays, 44. The Chair voted in the negative. The debate here again waxed warm. Mr. Stephens, of Hancock, said he wouid avail him self of the right., which the constitution gave him, to withdraw. Mr. Clark wanted to know where was that clause in the constitution. Mr. Stephens rose,arid said he would use the doctrine which the gentleman so strongly advo cates, the right of secession. Then the right of secession, even according to the Senator from Hancock, is a constitutional pow. r; he would avail himself ot that clause in the constitution, which the gentleman so strong- ly advocates, the right of secession. Mr. McGehee said, that the gentleman did not follow their leader. In 1840 they pointed to the fact that they had a candidate, John Tyler, who did not bolt where others did, who had the bold ness to stay and vote his solitaiy No. That was then the great tower of their strength. It was the war cry of Roderick Dhu. Mr. Hull moved to make the resolution the special order of Friday next, and supported his motion in a short speech, to which Mr. Cochran replied. Mr. Hull moved an adjournment which ' was lost. ThenJuflaa-d a general *" the Whigs, De mocrats J The principle now was : “Ho who fights, and runs away, May live to fight another day.” The Senate was now left without a quorum, and no effort of the door-keeper, no invitation could draw the refractory Senators back to their seats. There the Democracy remained, ; s if about to carry out the declaration of the Senator from Houston, who said they could stay four days and four nights. I he Whigs >ent a message by the door keeper that they were fareing sumptuously, and invited their Democratic friends to come and join them. Every thing remained in this beautiful state ol confusion until about 3 o’clock, when the Senate adjourned to meet again at 4. At the appointed hour, the faithful again repaired to the Senate Chamber, but in vain awaited the return of the Secessionists. They loafed around the doors, and cackled in the lobby, faucying that they had eltectuaily brought matters to a crisis; that they had completely out-generalled the democracy. I hey were, therefore, somewhat surprised that there would be a meeting of the Democratic party to-night in the Senate Chamber, at which ail who expected'in future to act with the party were invited to be present. The meeting has been held, and Messrs. An derson, Bailey and Moon, who seceded this morning from the Senate, participated in the proceedings. Warm and enthusiastic speeches were made, and the utmost harmony prevailed. Resolutions were adopted declaring it expedi ent to bring on the Senatorial Election, and leaving it to each man to vote for the Democrat of his choice. Such has been the result of the dissension of the morning. Out of disturbance has sprung the best good feeling, and all seem at last willing to abandon personal prejudices, and sacrifice personal gratifications for the success ol ..hose principles upon which the party organiza tion is based.

R- Milledgeville, Jan. 14, 1854. Mr. Editor :—The excitement existing on yes- terday, has, in a great measure, subsided. Ihe results of the Democra’ic meeting last nigh’ were clearly manifest in the action of the Sen ate to-day. They voted for bringing on the elec tion on Tuesday next, the measure be ng carried without the least difficulty. The W higs have quietly submitted to their late. Whatever may be the ultimate result of the Senatorial question, the great point has been achieved, in harmoniz ing the former dissensions in the party.
