Mr. - President, do you recollect any thing of the "Kane letter! " - The fruits of that letter were so per- fectly mirtsnlous the electing of a man who in his' widest mood had -never dreamed of such el : c vat ion over the head of the foremost man of the age I say. such were the fruits, that a bold, reck- less, sagacious, I will not say unscrupulous par , ty, would not be likely to abstain from the use of like means, when working heart and soul for a like result. ' No, sir.. Here is a second edition of the " Kane" principle. Principles, says the Senator from Mississippi, are indestructible, ' eternals I suppose that may be true, whether feood or bad. The latter, in the hands of skilful. 1 adroit, and 'unprincipled Jaxlfciane, are capable fa Infinite variety of application, and. wkb a . litt Jo ambidexterity such as that which once ap- speared in Kane letter. may be revived as at once ornamental and useful in the life of a dis tinguished statesman. I hold in one hand sketch of the life and public services of Gen Lewis Cass." I hold in the other A sketch o . the life'and public services cf Gen. Lewis Cass Afr. Foote. Whe're were they published! Mr. Mancum. Thev were published at the Congressional Globe office, Jackson Hall, I). C, Price 50 cents per hundred copies. Mr. Ioote. Will the senator inform me where he obtained them ? , ,Mr. Maxocm. It insufficient that I have them. The Globe office will not dare deny their publica ' t ion there ; their , types speak the truth, and, if needs be, there is other evidence at 'hand. One of the pamphlets has written upon it " North," the other ".South." One is evidently designed for a northern latitude and the other for a south ern. The one, as f suppose, designed for the Nordi, contains on the last page an eloquent out burst of Mr. Cass on the Mexican war, in re ply to some poor remarks of mine. I will not jJfiJLaiftihe Senate aAn4lwfnr har- an been thrilled and electrified by them here tofore. It contains also on the same page a long extract from a speech delivered by Mr. Cass, at Odd Fellows' HaU, in this city, at a meeting held to express the sympathies of the American people for France upon the result of the late French revolution. It also has on the same page an account of Mr. Cass's nomination for the Presidency, with some remarks upon his qual ifications, public services, his age, his virtues, and his manners, but not one word on the Wil mot proviso" On the. preceding page there is a very slight notice of Mr. Cass's vote on the three million bill in the winter of 1847, and a gainst the attaching of the proviso to that bill, from which the inference is fair and plain that he voJedagainst it, because it was out of place there, and for that reason only. The pamphlet, de signed, as I .suppose, for the South, has on the last page thesame .remarks by Mr. Cas hi re ply to me ; nothing upon ftie subject of the French revorution. But the Wilmot proviso" and his opinions ton it are strongly and impressively ota4bfcJbe biographer, wkh a commentary cal culateA to mislead tha nublir.. . : T I ii it i fM M S r -anmg-ajig cnnciunon, . as I trust, l uave intecdeTjfpr each part of the Union.

But I haf had auv narticipaney in any such meditated fraud Nor have Pany reason to believe that such is the case. As to what gentlemen may do in this House or the other I know nothing. I do know, however, that here is a plain palpable case, of, meditated fraud, ene of great enormity, seeking 4o;intelead ajd teliita terestsV "' While your jails and penitentiaries groan with culprits, convicted of "false pretence and frauds in tfiflinff pecuniary matters," what oueht to be done with the vjle malefactor who, by flagitious frauds like this, cheat fjie people, not out of a few shillings, but out of their dearest rights, mmat ters touching their private happiness and the pub lie prosperity i , Here are the pamphlets. I hand them over to the gentlemen to examine, ' hoping they may be able to investigate the trauu, trace it to its source drag the guilty culprit from his hiding place, and expose hun and his infamy to the scorn, the his ses, and the contempt of the public. Mr. Foote- The letter of Gen. Cass respect . i ar i t- . . . . ing me vvijmoi rroviso was written as early as december long anterior to the French meeting ; and whether that is not sufficient Mb. Mangum. I certainly think it would be very proper, in a life of Geo. Cass published as late as June 1848, a reference should be made to hid views UDon the late French Revolution They would not have been referred to in tlie March cditiop. BufrLdo uot seethe propriety of ecludingfrlm the June pamphlet all the mailer contained m the March, edition upon the " Wil mot Proviso' a question so-widely agitating and deeply dividing the public opynon I cannot eoiiceive'how tho biographer should have deemed a sympathising speech uf more mo ment to the public, in a sketch of the life of a candidate for the Presidency, than the excess of their alarms, imagine may shake the pillars of the Union. It cannot be so. The purpose must hive been sinister a fraud was meditated. To shake the pillars of the Union ! The Wil mot proviso to shake the pillars of the Union 1 feci no such apprehension. These fears are idle ; they are ridiculous. This Union thank God is not in the keeping of ambitious political aspi rants or disappointed politicians.

We learn froth' the correspondent of the " Commer cial Advertiser,' and from other sources, that Mr Badger, though anxious to alleviate the present ex cited state of the country upon; this Question, saw in the passage of this bill no reasoriable hope of benefit to the Southland express! staQl. that inhisopin ioaV by thfi Wll, the.

Until then, we content ourself with the following extract from the correspondent of tae "commercial Advertiser," above referred to: Mr. Uadger, of N. C. spoke at length in opposi tion to the bJ . He complained of the hot haste which had marked the action of the committee, and regretted that the bill had been renort ?kL . more severe ahd deliberate investigation of the sub ject. Indeed he seemed to be of opinion that It Would uuYcuxiaugnneuerto postpone the attempt to settle the question in any way, to another session of Congress. He admitted the heated and excited state of the public mind upon the question, but he did not believe that this bill would nrod that it would have any tendency to allay excitement vi swia-u uspmues oi ieenng. "He went on to sav that Cono:rrss tmrl full d. . i a tun juiij.

Hw thus met the issue tendered bv Mr. n.-il his supporters, and distinctly refused to stand upon the "platform" erected hv thpm fm. j ... uv ijuutu, He then proceeded to illustrate with tinctness the flillacy of the above doctrine. He sup posed that in the course, perhaps, of the present gen eration, our policy might require that we should h some means obtain possession of an isluud or fortress m me ouismrts ot the Chinese Empire, for protec tion of our commerce. If SO. COuld it ho that our constitution would instantly subject that spot to the laws of slavery ? We had the constitu tional power to acquire territory for many other pur poses besides that of nukinz new states. for instance, in time acquire Cuba, and so far as the question of power was concerned, might hold it or any part of it in a state of tutelage, "to the last syl lable of recorded time." "He showed from the records of the Senate that this doctrine of the constitutional establishment of slavery, without the intervention of law, was alto gether new. He spoke of the course of the disjin guished Senator Pinckney, of Maryland, upoa the Missouri compromise, and showed that in his opin ion, and that of the body of Southern Senators at that time, slavery could onjv Je established -by "Mr. Calhoun satdj had the authority of one of the Maryland Senators for saying that Mr. Pinck ney was an abplitionist, and therefore his opinion on such an occasion was-not to. be taken as Of aby force.
