Tlios. L. Clingman when he, being a member of Congress, in 1856 defended Hon. Preston Brookis, of South Caro lina, for caning Senator Sumner for having abused his uncle (an old man). Senator Butier. An effort^ was-^ made to expel Mr. Brooks from Congress, but failed. Gen. Clingman said: “Though I have not been here a great many years as a member, yet about a dozen collisions on the floors of the two houses have occurred in my time. * * * I recollect that dur ing my first Congress Mr. White, of Kentucky, and Mr. Bathbun, of New York, had a set-to just near where I now stana, during a^period of great ex dtement, and when politics ran very high, with reference to a personally offensive charge against Mr. Clay. * I recollect, too, that in the next Congress a gentleman from Geor gia and another from Tennessee had a struggle over on the other' side of the chamber, and several large desks were overturned, and the genUemen apolo gized for disturbing our deliberations. Also, towards the close of that session, while the house was in session at a late hour in the night, during a sort of tri angular fight, a gentleman from Ala bama struck a gentieman from the northwest over the head with a cane, and cut it so that it bled very freely. * I remember, too, gmng into the Senate that night near one or two o’dock * * * and a Senator asked me what we -had been di^g in the House, I replied that we had just had a little fight there among three of tKe members. ‘Why,’ said he, with an air of exultation, ‘we had two in the Sen ate to-night,’ and it was true. It was on that occasion that a Senator from Pennsylvania was standing up making a speech, and a Senator from Missis sippi, not liking his speech, went up and struck him in the face or attempted to strike him, and they had a regular set-to. During the next Congress two mem bers from North Carolina had a collision juat behind where I am standing. * * I recollect also that during the Con fess of 1852 two gentlemen from Mis sissippi had a fight over the way; they were stout gentlemen, and made quite, a ‘muss,’ as they say in New York. Why, even during the last Congress, I think, we had two difficulties of this sort. A gentleman from Maine had a fight with one from the West. On an other occasion two gentiemen from Tennessee had a violent altercation,and one of them jumped over several desks and the other pulled out a pistol, or, at any rate, a pistol fell upon the floor near him. * * * There have also been several duels. * * During the Congress before the last, while the House was in session, and just by the door of the postoffice, a member fr'm New York b^t the postmaster-general, or some other memter of the cabinet. Why, there was a man shot in the door of this hall some years ago while there was a fight going on be tween two members in the House. I might allude to many other circum stances of this kind. My object is to let the House see that this occurrence (Brooks’ assault on Sumner), as com aared with similar cases, is sought to je greatly magnified.” It was true that in none of the cases mentioned by Clingman was the offend ing member expelled, and in most of the cases not even an apology was de manded. The vote to eicpel Brooks waa 120 to 95 and failed. Brooks resigned, went home and was triumphantly re-elected. From Gen. Clingman’s speech it would seem that in old times when such as Clay, Calhoun, Webster, Ben ton, Badger, Clingman and others were the dominant spirits, a gentieman even on the floor of Congress had to be a litfle particular ae to what he said of another gentleman. It would seem, too, that not only gentiemen “from Southern planta tions,” but even those from Maine, New York, Pennsylvania and the Northwest would resent an insult. Is the present an. improvement on the old way ? Baltlmoire San.

Yes.” And your wife is dead?” She is.” Have you any document to show that she is dead?” No.” Then I must decline to marry you.

At tbat very time tbe mess^igers from Comdius were near to Joppa, and it was necessary that Peter should be ready to receive them and go with them, wblcb b? c«lainly would not have done but for this special It la beautiful to see God His servants for the good works which He has prepared for them. U. 12. The Spirit bade me go with While Peter vt'as considering the slg- niflcance of tbe vision the messengers from Cornelius were at the gate qulriug for him. and. instmcted by the Spirit, be called tbe men In and lodged them, aud tbe next day be and six oth ers started with tbe messengers for Caesarea and the home of Comdtns. This bock mip:ht well be called the acts of the Holy Spirit in the name at the Lord Jesns. lu it we see God and angels and men all working t^ether that men may know the riches of Ood’s grace and Uis wonderful love. 13, 14. Who shall tell thee words wbweby thou and all thy house sball be saved. As Cornelius told Peter why he had sent for him. this is what be said that tbe angel said Peter wonld do; there fore at tbe time of that visldu neither Comeliua nor his boose, however de vout, was saved, and Peter had to come from Joppa to tdl them the good news concerning Jesns Christ that tbey might be saved. How few seem to feci as Paul did when be said. “I am debtor both to Greeks and to barbari ans, so, as much as In me Is, I am ready to preach tbe gospel” (Rom. L 14, 15). If. And aa I besan to speak tbe H(dy Ghoat fell on them aa on na at tbe ~ Chapter x. 44. says, “While Peter yet spake these words the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word.” So it was while Peter was still speaking and just at the beginning of hla dis course that God wrought so marvelous ly. There was nothing In ^ this got up by man, neltb» the discourse nor the results. All was from God. It is my Increasing conviction that if ws preach the preaching which God bids us (Jonah ill, 2) the results wHl be all that God pleases (Isa. Iv, 11). 16. Tben remember^ I tbe word of tb« Lord, how that He said, John baptized with water, but ye sball be «»»»>- tised witb the Holy Ghost. These ascension words (Acts 1, 6) had therefore only a fulfillment at Pente cost Here is another fulfillment, and so it goes on and will until the fulfillment or filfullment of Joel 11, 28 82, In the near future. Jesns had told them that the Spkit would bring to theh* remembrance what He had — unto them (John xlv, 26), and He la now doing this with Peter. 17. Forasmuch then aa God cava the Uke gltt aa ^ did unto na, who be* Ueved on the Lord Jesua Chrlat. what wat I that I oould withstand God? Peter was In the hands ot the Lwd, the Lord’s messenger, the Lord’s sery ant and It was the Lord who wrooght all this, as they might have expected He would had they bdieved what H« commanded concerning giving the gos pel to every creature and the pn^hecy of Jod concerning pouring out Hifl Spirit upon all fl«h. Before Peter and the other six Jewish brethren God did for the nncircumclsed gentiles just what He had done at Pentecoat for circumcised Jews. When they beard these thlnaa. tbev their peaoS and a*>nilad God. aayfn& ^en bath God also to tbe aentiles ed repentance unto life. Tbe promise to Abram was that aD families of the earth should be Messed in him (Q^ xU, 3), and It was wrtttoi by the l^irit through Isaiah tbat lanid should Uossom and bud and fill the face of the earth with fruit (Isa. xxvil, 6). One wonld think th^t In the tilrsn hig to this gentile housdiold throngb Peter the Jew the brethren ml^ hays seen some fulflUment of thcae and not have been aurprlaed at them. It is true that many prx^hedee atm awaiting fnlfillmoit irtwn fulfilled greats surprise a hot of bellev*^, , T^he friends who caUed early at Houae to see the Fterident on toe 12th Mr. Roosevdt said: “I I WM a pretty good American be- tore I made the tnp, but I am a better A^can now than before I went to Oluulcston.
