CAROLINA SPARTAN. [From (bo WasHi?glou Union.] simet. Boners sfbkcu ox iimas, We laid before our readers lately the eloquent speech made hi the Senate some days ago by Judgo Butler., oo the questions connected with Kansas affairs, 'ihere are two or three points in this speech which maue a powerful impression in the Senate chamber when it was delivered, and they have been admired by the whole country for the lofty patriotism of their sentiments as we]l as the ehiilling eloquence of their lauguage. We refer particularly to his earnest and impassioned vindication of tho character of Ueneral Atchison, and bis equally earnest and impressive rebuke of the assault made by Mr. Iiale upon tho Supremo Court. In the course of the speech of Mr. Harlan, on Thursday last, lie alluded to the remark of Mr. Butler made in the speech referred to, in which he said that ho would rather that the Union should be dissolved in preference to be in tr in h flnion wiihmit ilia nmiiwiini. ? o fiv?iv%ivu of a constitution which gives him equality. Mr. Harlan construed this remark to lUwan that Mr. Butlor preferred a dissolution of the Union rather than that the people of the Territory^should have the power to exclude slavery from it. Mr. Butler was absent when the allusion was made; but after Mr. Harlan had concluded, the following remarks were made: "Mr. Butler.?Sir, I say now calmly, that when a northern majority shall acquire such a control over the legislation of this country as to disfranchise the slaveholding States in auy respect in which they have an equality under tho Constitution of the country, L will not agree to live under this Government wlieu the Union can survive the Constitution. Tlint is my sentiment. 1 am not a slave to mbmit myself to legislation controlled by mere discretion. Mr. Piesident, if Goorgo Washington ami Benjamin Franklin, and the wisest men who ever lived, were to come hero and attempt to legislate under tho dictates of mero discretion, aud should do me an injustice, 1 would bo n craven and a traitor to the principles of Afuy/ia Ckartu?to everything which I have learned fi-om tho highest sources of history?if I could submit to any measure that would place my children the ninety-nine hundredth pait of an inch beneath the cbildreu of the Senator from Iowa. "Mr. Boll, of Tennessee.?I do not wish to interfere in this matter, but 1 will state what I understood the Senator from Iowa to say. "Mr. Butler.? I did not hear his re- ' n-.ark; I was not here when ho inado it. f "Mr. Bell, of Tennessee.?The Senator from Iowa took the distinct ground, that tho interpretation of the views of tho gentleman from South Carolina was, that tho 'equality* of which ho spoke consisted in the citizens of tho Southern Slates having the right, duiing the whole period oftcriilorial governments I" the Territories, to go there I with their slaves before a constitution i wai formed. I understood the SeiKw'.,r from Iowa to say that the Senator from South Carolina had denied that the people of the Territory of Kansas, under their j organic law, could exclude slavery, if they should think proper, at the commencement of their territorial government, but mu.-t admit slavery until the Territory shall be admitted into the Union with a Stale constitution. That is what I understood him to say. "Mr. Duller.?This is rather an ambulatory kind of issue. I cannot find out what : is the meaning of tho Senator. "Mr, Harlan.?I will state to the hon- 1 orable Senator from South Carolina what 1 said. The honorable Senator from Teunessce has fairly presented the argument; but my view was based on the statement of the honorable Senator from South Carolina, and tho honorable Senator from Georgia, [Mr. Toombs.] It was argumentative merely. 1 quoted, as nearly as I could roniember, the substance of the remarks ol the Senator from South Carolina; and then : , 1 interpreted the meaning of his phraseulo- j gy uy quoting troin tho speech of tlie Senator from Georgia. "Mr. Halo.?That is it, exactly. ?. "Mr. Butler.? Well, sir; 1 want no copartnership with anybody in making speeches. If the Senator from Iowa were on tho tripod to morrow at the Delphic oracle, I would not take his interpretation of my speech. lie might place a Dythia .there, and instruct her, and l'hilipiso her, if he chose, but 1 would not take bi? interpretation. Why, sir, I avoided that very question in regard to the powers of the territorial government. Ho cannot find a word in iny speech upon that question. The potential faculty of a territoiial gov eminent is one over which I should exeiciso a very 'delicate control. I u ver contended that I desired a law to carry slavery into any Territory, and I never wanted a law to exclude it. All that 1 have contended for is, that tho common domain of this government, acquired l>y the common blood and treasure of all parts of tiie United States, shall he just ns free to one class of citizens as to another. When the people of a Territory are in the process of approaching what may ho called the maturity of their territoiial existence?a Slato government?1 say mr.cli is to he paidoned to the opinion which prevails at the lime. But, sir, ifan insulting intcrfer ?iice wete to l>o made t?y u majority of I *.'ongreps, or rirh an ' crfcfrence as would cscludc a slaveholder on tho broad ground (lint he wftj unworthy if equnhly with a non-slaveholding population, do you suppose I would stay in the Union if I could get out of itf "That is th? titie docttine. I do not wish to live under litis government when tho constitution perishes. 1 believe the gentleman is or has been in the church. | Mr. Harlan. Yes, sir.] I have very yrent respect for the church, and for the Senator; but I fear lie contends that, while tho letter killeth, the spirit cannot give life." Asothkr Arctic F.xr edition.?

The New York Courier, commenting upon ft charge delivered by it judge of that wj, city to it grand jury, makes some remarks |)VI relative to the responsibilities and the uiifaithfulness of jurors that may be read < with advautago 111 other localities than that full for which they wero specially designed: Judge Capron dwells wifh just etuphnsis j. upon the sanctity and supremacy of law, Jr; and nobly vindicates ils claims upon its lo own sworn ministers. lie hits not spared the jury-box itself, which judges arebultoo m0 apt lo tront as if, like the throno, it was _ef "hedged in with divinity." llo tells the ' grand jury plainly, that petit iurors, like j, J other public servants, are capnble of being nei actuated by bad motives, and that their j9 ( conduct is justly subject to inquisition. We gl;1 are glad at least to hear this stylo of speech. |,j8 It is r. positive fact that one of the principal causes of tho great iiupunily of criino in ;n this city has been tho unfaithfulness of pe- pOI tit jurors in wilfully preventing an agree- i meat upon a verdict. The juror in tho late Ebling case, who, according to tho publish- wc ed statement of oue or his fellows, refused p}-1? to consult, with the declaration that til! tho j,ja City Ilall rotted down ho would never ujj agree to a verdict which should send Eb ling to tho State prison, was but one of a ^ contumacious class of jurors who have for ?el years weighed liko an incubus upon the administration of justice in this city. Ho ,no flagrantly violated his oath to give a true ^,ol verdict according to evidence, and as richly 1 on deserves the Slate's piison : s any perjuror |,j4 now within its walls. Nay, more; for the 1 on false words of a witness upon tiieslaud may jy, bo neutralized l?y cross-examination or overborne by other evidence; but tho false con- r,.? duct of a juror utterly and inevitably NVft thwarts and foils lire end of justice in the ^j| ponding trial. ! \p It is a difficult and invidious task, wo ' know, to judge between tho firmness of a , ^ur conscientious conviction and thccontumacy I of a foregone conclusion; but it is a subject ycj" upon w hich tho law has a right to make j ?n inquiry and pass judgment, and upon wj, which public opinion, too, lias a right to express itself. There is nothing in the function or character of petit jurors that cre should any more shield them, in the case t]0 of unfaithfulness, from public nnimndvor- , re, sion or from legal punishment than any j other class of public servants. In fact their i roj guilt, if guilty, is deeper, for .: is propor- i nn< lioned to tho sacredncss of tho responsibili Im ty intrusted to them; and what civil re , sponsibility can be like the juror's? Who | like hiin decides upon character,life, liberty |nj and properly? Lord Brougham said that j?., "tho whole machinery of government - ' ,jK King, Lords, and Commons?is simply to j nc, get twelve men into a jury-box," and the cr|] expression is not too strong to those who believo as we do that tho highest interest of human society is justice, and that even t|K freedom is secondary to it. Our jury boxes p0 have been open to evil influences in a way t|,c they should not have been; their character | 0jp must be redeemed, and Judge Capron lias i as| entitled himself to the public thanks, in . C|K baldly declaring the necessity*. i jnv ? the Jolly Eilravagnnc:. rto' I fus A debate in the Senate on Wednesday ' ^ last discloses some precious facta touching i the expenditures of the Government in tho | matter of printing and publishing book* ~ and inapt in illustration of tho navels of ^ naval gentlemen and other officials. What j will the reader think when he i< told that ' ^ the cost of publishing Lieut. Wilkes'book, which grew out of the Antarctic exploring , expedition, has already amounted to a . million and a quarter of dollars? So says 1 j. Mr. Clayton* in the debate to which we 10- ' , for. lie also stated that Coinmodoro l'er- , ry's book on Japan has cost the Government two hundred thousand dollars, whilo ' , threo hundred is the estimate for printing the teports and engravings of the rcconnoi- ; J'J' sauces of tho l'.icitio railroad routes. These j -j-| expenses, ioi it ue remarket!, arc not ! ,*|ia any work tlono in expeditions referro I to, but are simply t!?o co>t of getting an ao- j count of them upon paper, in readiness for *10 circulation. Was there ever such aboini- ! j liable extravagance and waste of the public W, money a* this? Su| No wonder that Mr. Chittenden exclaims j ( that the Senate of the I'nited States has1 ant l eionte a great publishing house, outvie ; eat: ing even the Harpers in tho extent and J ?? ' magnificence of its publications. The rocognition of the fact, wo aro glad to see, eon disgusts him wilh-tlio wliole busine-e, and kim leads him to declare that he wish* s to see ; v'?l an end put to it. It is tlie same with Mr. Clayton, who is not less emphatic in his r ,a denunciation of these schemes of individual <l.*. profit and glory. Wo should like to know '? ?< how mueh money the various individuals connected with the-o several publishing en- ||i|M terprisea have made. It would he a cm ions n?,| exposure if they could be anatomized ami by i laid bare to a wondering public. Vet these j aro but samples of works of tbc same d?s criptioti done by the same authority, and y at the same prodigal cost. There will be liu* but too much rejoicing if tho venerable 'I Senators from Delaware ami Kentucky do 1 ' not become mollified by time and familiarity with these particular expenditures, and |. allow their spasm of economy to subside., n??? It takes a flinty nature to resist tho bland c,,:" seductions of the federal capital in the in it;' tcr of tho expenditure of money for what ,,'r | ever purpose; and we confess, not without ficc emotions of regret, that it is not such gen lion tlcir.cn as the Senators we have named to 11 w hom we look for consistent devotion to 1,11 the maxims of frugality.

"Greatness," said Mr. Duike u?,| "is never exact."

L)n Sunday morning, a few minutes bee three o'clock, the sutferings of her Maly assumed so decided a character that was deemed advisable to call :n the uces and grand dignitaries of the empire witness the birth of the imperial infant.
