We take pleasure in awarding to the Honorable Senator from Greene, the meed of praise justly due i him, for his manly and patriotic tribute to truth and justice in his commendations of the President’s message. In the resolutions of Judge Conk are spoken the honest convictions ot many members i i.f the Know Nothing Order of Georgia, who, j while politically arrayed against the Adniinistra- ' tion, are unwilling to wage against it a factious! and unscrupulous warfare. They cannot ignore the sound principles of policy and Constitutional truth on which that Administration is based —they j cannot shut their eyes to the patriotic and self-sac- j rificing efforts of the President, studiously and strictly to carry out these principles—they cannot, as Southern men, be insensible to the ordinary feel ings of grateful admiration, which the manly na tional course of the President awakens. Assailing and assailed by abolitionism which, foiled and de feated thus far, yells in frantic rage at the obstu- j cles opposing their career, the President stands } between them and the South as an impassable bar rier, and hurls back, from bis lofty eminence, de fiance to their fierce onslaughts on our Constitu tional rights. Though opposition to foreigners and Catholics has, of late, absorbed an undue share of Judge Cones’ efforts and energies, be is too much of a Democrat, in all bis antecedents and past sympa thies, to be insensible to the good service in behalf of sound principles, rendered the country by the present Administration. llis resolutions ore n magnanimous recognition of this fact. The resolution sustaining the President's con struction of the Clayton-Bilwkr treaty, aud pledging the support of our people to the Admin istration in defence of that construction, even to the extremity of a war with England, speaks, we believe, the unanimous sentiment of Georgia, and the South, and of the patriotic men of all sections. Ptooet'diiigs of the Democratic Anti- Know Nothing Convention. We present the proceedings, in full, of this <’iin vention, recently assembled at Milledgeville. They will be especially interesting to our readers, ami will be read with deep interest by the whole coun try, as they unquestionably embody the sentiments of a large majority of the people of Georgia. \\ ith these sentiments, the delegates appointed will go to the National Democratic Convention, to assemble on the first Monday of next June, at Cincinnati, and there they will, we have every confidence, re ceive the sanction and concurrence of the Repre sentatives of the National Democratic party of the Union. With such principles inscribed upon it* banner, that great party will go with its candidates for President and Vice President, into the field, con quering and to conquer. The conservative men of every section willjrally to its support, as the party of patriotism and correct Constitutional principles, and aid in overwhelming the heterogeneous am warring factions of folly, fanaticism, and sectional prejudice, which, for the last two years, have dis tracted the country, and made sport of its best in terests. We look with full assurance for large and valua ble accessions to our ranks, in the next few months, from the patriotic but deluded citizens of Georgia, who have unwittingly been drawn, wilder tempora ry excitements and delusions, into the Know Noth ing organization, and who have found, by late ex perience, the utter inefficiency of that Order, u. accomplish aught that is safe for the South or use ful for the country We invite aitention to the card of Joss i-h Carson A Co., Baltimore.

Bingham, of Ohio, and Bovce of ‘ South Carolina, had submitted lists of questions to be answered by each of the candidates for Speaker, Mr. Richardson, of Illinois, sent to the Clerk’s desk the questions that had been propounded to him by Mr. Zollicoffer, and requested that the first interrogatory be read; and it was accordingly read, a* follow*: • Gflht in supposing that the gentleman from Illinois. < Mr. Richardson) rewards the Kan sas-Nebraska bill as promotive of the formation of tree States in the Territories of Kansas and Ne braaka. ’ Mr. Rieharson— In reply to the first question of the gentleman from Tennessee Mr. Zollicoffer , 1 have to say I voted for the bills organizing the Ter ritories of Nebraska and Kansas because I thought them just to all, and f defended that vote before mv I 1 constituents upon that ground, f intended then i and intend now, that the people who go there ! or who have gone there, shall decide the ones- j non of slavery for themselves, and, so far ; as I could, to admit them as States, with or without slavery, as the people should do- j eiue. .u common with Nortnern and Southern , : gentlemen, I have said that, in mv opinion, slave- ! rv would never go there; but I have never, here or ' elsewhere, urged that as a reason why I voted for 1 that bill. I voted for the bill because it was just, ’ ■ right and proper, and wanted nothing more to de- ! fend myself. L repeat here an argument I have : made over and over again before my constituents, i and it is this : if a majority of the people of Kan- ' : sas or Nebraska are in favor of slavery, they will have it; if a majority are opposed to it, then thev ! will not have it. This is the practical result of eve- ; ; rv theory advocated by the friends of the Nebraska and Kansas bill. I gave my sanction to this prin ciple in supporting the Territorial bills of 1650, | and have uniformly supported the same principles I since, whenever presented for my action, and shall ! continue to do so in all future eases that may arise. It is a principle lying at the foundation of all pop ular Governments that the people of each separate or distinct community shall decide for themselves the nature and character of the institutions under which they • shall live; aud bv this principle I am prepared to live and die. I therefore voted for the Nebraska and Kansas bill, neither as a pro-slaverv nor anti-slaverv measure, but as a measure of equal | right and justice to the people of all sections of j our common country. Will the Clerk now read the next question? “Am 1 right iti supposing that lie advocates the Constitutionality of the Wilmot Proviso V that in 185” he opposed its application to the territory ac quired from Mexico, only upon the ground that it was unnecessary, inasmuch as the Mexican local laws in those territories already abolished shu-ert/, whigh ought to be sufficient for all Frecsoil men ? and that he committed himself to the position that if Territorial bills silent upon the subject of slave ry and leaving the .Mexican laws to operate) were defeated, lie would vote for bills with the Wilmot Proviso in them.” Mr. Richardson—This question requires a more extended reply. In 1803 we acquired Louisiana; it was slave territory. In 1820 we divided, by line of 3 ,: deg. 30 min., that territory; north of the line it was to be free. In 1845 we annexed Texas; that was slave territory; we divided that by extending the Hue of 36 deg. 39 min., through that; north to be free. 1 voted repeatedly to extend the same line west to the Pacific ocean. I voted for that line, with a few Representatives from the North, aud the whole body of Southern Representatives. When 1 gave those votes, I did not believe then, nor do I believe now, that T violated the Constitu tion of the L iiited States. If you have power un der the Constitution to exclude slaverv from half of a Territory, 1 think you have power to'exclude from all, though such an exercise would be unjust and wrong. I have never, therefore, voted to exercise that power, except upon the principle of compro mise. The Clerk then read the second and third inter rogatories. as follows: Am I right iu supposing that his theory is that the Constitution of the United States does not car re slaverv tu. and protect it in the Territories of the United States? that in the territory acquired irom Mexico and France < including Kansas and Nebraska) the Missouri restriction was necessary to make the territory tree, because slavery existed 1 there under France at the time of the acquisition, but that the Kansas and Nebraska bill, which re peals that restriction, but neither legislates slave ry into those Territories nor excludes it therefrom, in his opinion, leaves those Territories without either local or Constitutional law protecting -duve ry ; and that, therefore, the Kansas-Nebraska bill promotes the formation of free States in Kansas and Nebraska?” ’ Mr. Richardson—The Constitution does not, in my opinion, carry the institutions of any of the ■ States into the Territories ; but it affords the same . protection there to the institutions of one State as f another. The citizen ot Virginia is as much unit led in the common territory to the protection >f his property under the Constitution as the citi • ten of Illinois ; but both are dependent upon the legislation of the Territorial Government for laws to protect their property, of whatever kind it may ’ be. Mr Banks, of Massachusetts, then rose to ad dress the House. He yesterday voted with plea sure for the resolution presented by the honorable gentleman from Tennessee, (Mr. Zollicofler). It embodied a principle which he believed to be a sound one—the right of every gentleman to in quire into and understand theprinciples maintain ’d by the candidate for whom he chose to give his vote. In reply to the first question propounded bv the gentleman from Tennessee, he would distinctly say that he did not regard the Kansas and Nebras ka bill as promotive of the formation of free States, inasmuch as it repealed the prohibition of the in stitution of slaverv over the section of country to which that measure applied. In regard to the second question, he should give a general reply in the affirmative. He believed in the constitutionality of the Wilmot proviso, and that it was within the power of Congress to pro hibit the institution of slaverv in ali the Territo ries belonging to the United States. As to whether or not he should advocate the passage of such an act in regard to Territory where it was clearly un necessary, in consequence of its prohibitio’n by pre-existing local laws, he had nothing to sav. Very likely, if he thought it unnecessary, be should be willing to vote for a bill without that prohibi tion ; but with regard to the Territory covered by the measures of lsoff, had he at that' time held a seat here, and believed it necessary to prohibit slaverv therein, that the Wilmot proviso should he passed, he wished it distinctly understood tHat he should have voted for it. As to the third question, he did not believe that the Constitution carried the institution of slaverv into the Territories of the United States. His un derstanding of that question was based upon the declaration of Mr. Webster, that even the Consti tution of the United Mates itself did not go to the Territories until carried there by act of Congress. He Mr. did not believe that the Constitution car ried to any Territory of the United States the riudit to hold slaves there. He recognised the right to protection of all property, on the part of the'Soutli as well as on the part of the North, in the Territo ries of the United States ; but when he spoke of property, he meant that which was considered as su n by the universal laws of the world. lie meant not that which was property only while held in particular States of this country, and which lost its character as sueh the moment it went beyond the limits of those States. Property in man, which tlie universal law of the world condemned, and which was property only when held under the local laws ot certain sections of the country, where he had no disposition to disturb it, was riot such property as was protected by the Constitution of the United States. But he had nothing to sav up on this very delicate question in regard to the pro tection of property. He believed that the Constitution of the United States wa* intended to do justice between the dif ferent sections of the country, to the South as well as to the North. lie was for that to-dav, and be lieved that justice should be done to both North and South, and fin no speech or declaration that had ever fallen' from his lips, so for as he could remember, had he expressed sentiments different from these. But he believed that the Constitution was contemplated by its framers as an instrument of ultimate universal freedom, and that it was looked to as such by the world at large; and that the flag which symbolized, which represented it, and made the territory over which it waved, in whatever quarter of the globe, so long as it cov ered American citizens. American territory was the symbol of that ultimate universal freedom. He trusted that it should ever wave such, and nothing else. As to the latter part of the last auestiou, re specting the territory acquired from France, it is but a repetition of the first interrogatory, with the addition of a statement. In regard to that statement of fact, he had to sav that it had been doubted whether the institution of slaverv ex- ! isted in that territory at the time of its acquisi tion. .Without going into the subject of the deubt resting upon the question whether France, by the decree of 1794, did abolish the institution of slavery there, he thought that Congress was ight in interdicting the institution over that terri tory if sueh legislation was neccessary to make it free. It' i; was necessary, in order to gain to the S >uth the right to carry the institution of slaver? there, that the interdiction of I'2o should be re pealed, he thought that the Congress of 1853 was wrong in enacting that rt p tal; and he could but say, with the light that had come to him on this ques tion, that the interdiction of 1820, having forbid den and abolished the institution of slaverv, if it exi-ted there, its repeal in 1854, inasmuch as it al lowed slavery to go there, unless under impossi ble circumstances, was an act not promotive of the formation of the free States. Mr. Fuller, of Pennsylvania remarked that he cordially approved the resolution adopted yes terday on motion of the gentleman from Ten nessee In answer to the specific interrogatories that ! had been presented, he would say, as to the ' first, that lie did not regard the Kansas-Nebraska bill as promotive of the formation of free States ; ] and he would further sav that he did not be lieve it was promotive of the formation of slave States. In reply to the second inquiry, he would state that he had never, and did not now advocate the constitutionality of the Wilmot Proviso. He had i never committed himself to the position “that if: territorial bills silent upon the subject of slavery j (and leaving the Mexican laws to operate) were de- ; seated, he would vote for bills with the Wilmot j Proviso in them.” This question related to the : legislation of the distinguished gentleman from II- j linoia. What he (Mr. F.) had to say upon that sub- j ject was, that he was not a member of that Con- j gross, and had never taken any position upon that j subject heretofore ; but he was willing, in all frank- 1 I ness and candor, to do so now, ami would do so , , with great deference to the opinions of wiser and I ; better men. Slaverv existed before the C'onstitu- J j tion, and, in Ilia judgment, now existed independ ent of that instrument. When the people of the confederated States met, by their representatives, j in Convention to form the Constitution, slavery ; existed in all but one of the States. The people, I having an existing and acknowledged right to hold j slaves, conceded, through their representatives, j the right to prohibit the importation of them after the year (80S. They made no concession so far as ; regarded the existence of domestic slavery. They claimed—and it was granted—the right to reclaim slaves in cases of escape; they claimed—aud it was granted—the right of slave representation as an element of political power. He held that Congress had no right to legislate upon the subject of slave ry ; that the Territories were the common property ■ of all the States, and that tho people of all the States had the right to enter upon ana occupy these ; Territories, and were protected by the flag’of the country; that Congress had no right to legislate slavery into nor exclude it from the Territories, i Neither had a Territorial Legislature, in his jmlg j inent, any right to legislate upon that subject, ex cept so far as it might become necessary to protect j the citizens of the Territory in the enjoyment of their property. He believed that he had answered i all the interrogatories. Mr. Pennington, of New Jersey, in answer to a call from Mr. Marshall, most respectfully declined ! to make any reply, under the circumstances in which ho now stood, to the interrogatories that had i been presented to the various candidates. When | it should be seriously contemplated by the House | to use his name in connection with the office of Speaker, it would be time enough for him seriously j to consider the propriety of answering anv inter | rogatories that might be submitted to him. He had : voted against the resolution, and was therefore in ; no measure responsible for its adoption, or commit* 1 ted to the line of conduct which it indicated. He i acceded most cordially to the principle which was j asserted in the resolution, but in his view it had no j applicability whatever to the contest now going on 1 in the House. The Speaker of tho House was placed i in ttis chair to preserve order and decorum—func tions which in no respect involved anv political , ; principle, but which alone involved the principles ! of integrity and impartiality. ! Mr. Richardson had examined the inquiries ! propounded bv the gentleman from Ohio, M.i. ! Bingham, > and thought that he had answered all i • of them substantial!}-, with the exception of the ! I first and fifth. In reply to the first question, ho would slate that in ids opiniou the Constitution of the United States did extend over the Territories, »o far as it was , applicable to their condition. In reply to the fifth question, he had to say that by the express terms of the bills organizing the ! Territories that had been established subsequently i to the passage of the fugitive slave law, that law i was in operation in such Territories. * As to the injuries of the gentleman from Missis sippi, (Mr. Barksdale,) lie would state that he be longed to no American or Know Nothing party, - nor to any secrect political organization. He was opposed to the Abolition of or interference with : slavery in the District of Columbia, and to any in terference with it bv Congress in the dock-vards or 1 any other place. He believed that the Almighty 1 had made the negro inferior to the white man, and 1 he did not think that they could be placed on an , equality, unless the white should be dragged down 1 to a level with the other. , Iu answer to the jocular questions of his friend - from Missouri, (Mr. Kennett,) he must confess that - he sometimes feared that in that future state, iu , which he believed, he and some of his associates ; would not be free, i Laughter], Mr. Kennett was glad to hear that his friend was 1 a little anxious about his own condition u-> well as % tha; of other members of the House, and thought he had great cause. (Laughter). i Mr. Richardson was not only anxious about him ? self, but his friends. (Laughter). He had over ■ looked one of the questions of the gentleman from i Mississippi -that in relation t# Catholics and for i eigners. He did not care what a man’s religious i opinions might be. He would as soon support a - Catholic for office as a member of any other de i nomination, provided he was qualified for the ■i place and his political sentiments corresponded . with his own. He thought that the only safety in a Government like ours, was to keep religion - | out of politics, and that we should never carry - our religion to the polls or our politics to church. Mr. Bingham, of Ohio, desired to know whether t tiie gentleman from Illinois had affirmed or denied i the right of the people of the Territories to make - any law depriving any person therein of life or liberty, “except as punishment for crime, upon - i due conviction ?" i Mr. Richardson desired to conceal nothing. He ■ \ had, in the remarks he had submitted this morn ■ | ing, expressed the belief that the people of the - j Territories of Kansas and Nebraska had the right , ! either to establish or prohibit African slavery. ’ Mr. Banks wished it understood that when he ; i i answered questions quit to him, he spoke as a mem ! her of the House for one of the districts of the j State of Massachusetts. In regard to his position, j ■ as connected with certain parlies in this country, , j he should stale it in his own way, and, inasmuch j ■ ! as it was u uiattei which particularly concerned himself, be should state facts, and the gentleman • . from Mississippi and others might draw their own j I inferences. When he was elected as a member of the House from the State of Massachusetts, he was elected upon tho nomination of the regular Democratic party, and of the American party in his district, the latter being very largely in the majority. In reply to the fourth interrogatory of the gen | tlemau from Mississippi, he would refer the gentle | man to a speech which ho had delivered in the j House during the last session, in which hr had ex pressed his opinions upon the subject fully and freely, and which bo considered his record". He I had adopted tiie maxim of Junius, that “it is a very I 1 unfortunate waste of time that a man should spend 1 any considerable portion of his life in eoimnenturi upon bis own works.” [Laughter.] i In regard to the third interrogatory, concerning I tin equality of the white and black races, he be lieved in tiie maxim contained in the Declaration : of Independence, “that all men are created free and ! equal.” So far as he bad studied this subject of 1 races, he had adopted the idea that when there is ! a weaker race iu existence, it will succumb to and i j be absorbed in the stronger race. This was the i universal law as regarded the races of men in the j world. In regard to the question whether the ! white race or the black race was superior, lie pro- I prosed to wait until time should develop whether the white race should absorb the black or the black absorb the white. [Laughter.] The next question was, whether he was in favor i of restoring the Missouri restriction, or for tho en tire prohibition of slavery in all the Territories of the l.nited States? The Territorial question of the present lime referred to the Territories of j Kansas and Nebraska. As to tbs Territories to 1 i come hereafter, he would sav to the gentleman from Mississippi and to the House, that be was-for j the prohibition of slavery in the Territories of Kansas and Nebraska. Iu regard to ihe first clause of this interrogate- t rv, as to whether he was in favor of restoring the Missouri Compromise, he had to reply that he desired that the prohibition of the institution of ! slaverv in the Territories of Kansas and Nebraska, as made by .Southern States, should be made good to the people of the coifhtry and to its great here- | after. As to the manner in which it should be j done—whether by restoration of the technical line or by any other methods, appliances, acts, or principles that should give to the American States the prohibition for which Southern men compact ed, agreed, and took a consideration—he had noth ing to say. He was tor the substantial restoration : of the prohibition of the institution of slavery as prohibited in 1820. He would reply to the other question by saving j that he stood here ready, willing, desirous and' de- : termine to co-operate with the men of the United j States who were for the substantial restoration of the interdict of the institution of slavery iu the Terri tories of Kansas and Nebraska. He was ready to ’ a t with men of any party, of any principles, of any views who would co-operate with him in re- j gard to this great question. Mr. 1 nHer, of Pennsylvania, remarked, that as ; he was laboring under severe indisposition, he could not pretend to any eloquence on the present occasion. He would, therefore, answer the ques tions specifically and directly. He replied to the i firs; question, “ Are you in favor of restoring tho : Missouri restriction, or do you go for the entire t prohibition of slavery in all the Territories of the j l nited States?” lam not. To the second, “Are T'ju m favor of abolishing slavery in the District ot Columbia, in the United States forts, dock yards, Ac ? lam not. To the third, “Do vou believe in the equality of the white and black races in the United States, and wish to promote that equality by legislation ?” Ide not. As to being in favor of the entire exclusion of adopted citizens and Roman Catholic?f rom office, he thought with General Washington, that it would comport best with the policy of this coun try to appoint native-born citizens in presence to 1 those of foreign birth. ’Applause in the galleries ' Ho would proscribe no man because of hi* religion, ) | and would denounce no man because of his politics, j but would accord to all the largest liberty of opin | ion and of expression, of conscience and of wor ship. He cared not what religion a man might ! profess, nor to what denomination he might, be- I long. Be he Mehomedau, Jew, or Gentile, he I would accord him the right to worship according j to the dictates of his own judgment. As to foreign-born citizens, he did not desire to ' exclude them. He would invite them to come j here and enter upon the public land, to occupy the i public territory, and to build up for themselves I homes, and teach their children to love the Con j stitution and laws which protected them; but he i ! would say that in all matters of legislation and of . j administration Americans should govern America, j [Great applause in the galleries.] There being loud cries of “call the roll,” the ; i House proceeded to the one hundred and eighth ; 1 ballot, with the following result: i Mr. Banks, of Mass 94 !
