The Kansas Discussion Has at length fairly opened in the Senate, and four days of last week were consumed thereon. Senators Green, Seward and Col- lamer have spoken, and it is not improbable that most of the freesoil Senators will seek a hearing, if for no other purpose than to inter pose every possible delay to the passage of the bill. Its final success, however, does not ap pear to be much doubted in any quarter. It will go through, and when “ bleeding Kansas” shall finally be received within the fo'd of the Federal Union, a universal sigh of relief will go up from every quietly disposed citizen of the country. Nothing but stern moral princi ple—professional dignity—proverbial sobriety or some other restraining influence, will keep the press out of a frolic over that happy deliv erance, and by common consent, Kansas aud her bleeding heroes, humbugs and braggarts will be consigned to eternal oblivion.

A Washington despatch of tho 4th instant, says: •Senator Toombs, from tho Committee on thaJudici- ry, will to-morrow give notice of a bill fora general nnd uniform system of bankruptcy throughout tho United States for the protection of creditors, the re lief of insolvent debtors, and to regulate the com mercial intercourse of the citizens of different States, including banks and all corporations; and as near as I can now ascertain, it will contain both voluntary and involuiitary bAikruptcy, and will compel both individuals and corporations to pay their debts or bo come bankrupt. There oan bo no more suspension of specie payments by the banks. It will no doubt provide with eare against all frauds or preferences, and compel an honest division of all the bankrupt’s property among the creditors. Tlie measure is de cidedly popular here, and all agree it is in the very best hands for its sucoets. It is regurded as of great interest here, and inay take the place of shrieking Kansas in the senate ” splendid offering to his great name, ailct ' • - brightness to her own fair fame.
