He is sliU very weak and lit* physicians counsel biui nut to move out of the tlouse for a week. The following is Mr. Sumner's statement on oath :?"I attended the Seuate as usual on Thursday the 22d of May. After some format business a message was received from the house of Representative*, announcing the doath of a member of that body from Mis- * aouri. This was followed by a brief tribute to the deceased from Mr. Geyer, of Missouri, when, according to usage and out of respect to the deceased, the Senate adjourned. Instead of leaving the Chamber with the rest on the adjournment, 1 continued in tny seat, occupied with my pen. While thus intent, in order to bo in season for the mail, which was soon to close, I was approached by several persons, w ho desired to consult with me, but I answered them promptly and briefly, excusing myself, for the reason that I was much engaged. When the last of these persons left me, 1 drew my arm-chair close to my desk, and i ?J? _i t_ mm iur mg-i iiauer uie oesK, continued writing. My attention at this time was so ontireiy drawn from ali other objects, that, , thougli'thcre must have been many persons in the Senate, I saw no body. While thus intent, with ray head bent over my writing, I was addressed by n person who approached the front of iny desk, so entirely unobserved that I was uot aware of his presence until I heard ( tny name pronounced. As I looked up, with ( my pen in my hand, I saw a tall man, whose countenance wai not familiar, standing di rectly over me, and at the same moment 1 caught thuse words:?"I have read your speech twice over carefully. It is a libel on Houth Carolina and Mr. Huller who is n relative of mine." "While these words were still passing from his lips, he commenced a succession of blows with a heavy cane ou my bare head, by the j first of which I was stunned so as to lo?e|; viglit. I no longer saw my assailant nor i any other person or object in the room. ( What I did afterwards was done almost un- ( consciously, acting under instincts of self-defence, with my head already bent down. I roso from my seat, wrenching up my desk 1 which was screwed, to the floor, and then preying forward while my assailant continued his blows. 1 had no oilier consciousness, . until I found myself ten feel forward in front of my desk, lying on the floor of tho Senate with my bleeding head suppoited on the knee of a gentleman, whom I soon recognised by voice and manner as Mr. Morgan, of < New York. Other persons there were about , tne offering friendly assistance, but I did uot < recognise any of them. Others there were nt a distance, looking on and ottering no as that he wn* entirely without arrm of any J hind and that he had no notice or warning | of any kind, direct or indirect, of this asMllit. In answer to another question, Mr. Sumner replied : That what he had said of Mr. Hutler was strictly responsive to Mr. [hitler's speeches. ? ?.?? | ( Death 6v a Member ok Conoruus.? We have a despatch from St. Louis, says the rational intelligencer, dated on the 10th instant, conveying to us tho painful in telligencc of the death, on the 1 ltli instant, of the Hon. John G. Miller, a Represents- 1 tive in Congress from the fifth district of Missouri. This worthy gentleman has been l a great sufferer from disease for nearly two j years past, and was unable to take his seat , at all duiing the proseut session. It is rarely that a Congress completes its terin with- 1 out an admonition of this sort. This is the first of the present session, and the shaft lias pierced a noble heait.

Of those who helped 1 ine there 1 have no recollection. As I en j i tered the lobby I recognized Mr. Slidell, HT , Louisiana, who retreated ; hut I recognized | no one else until I felt a fi iendly grn*p of the hand, which seemed to conic fiom Mr. Camp- ' bell, of Ohio.

I desire to add that besides the words which I hare given as uttered by my assail- * ant, I have an indistinct recollection of the I words "old man," but these are so enveloped in the mists which ensued from the first blow,! that I am not sure whether they were uttered or not.

As the President of that body, I propose to ail orders, organizations nod friends of Temperance gcnei ally, to amcmhle, by delegates at Greenville on the first Wednesday in August next. I would suggest that each society, division, tent or scetiou be represented by three delegates; and that every friend of Temperauce who will attend, be considered as the representative of the part of the Slate in which ho may live. In such nn assemblage there will 1>? mate rial enough to rebuild the State Society, and give to us, who l?elieve in Temperance and Prohibition, the sure means of accomplishing the great work of reform in South Car oliiia.

No clue could then be had as to who the incendiary was. Dr. Troy, becoming satisfied that John A. Bell had been instrumental in burning his dwelling. instituted a suit beiore the Circuit Court for damages against John A. Bell. Jobu A.

There is a tremendous outside prossure in favor of the latter. A Committee of'Credentials of one member from each uncontested State was np pointed.

We have it, also, fium the snme authority, that the probabilities at Washington are in favor of the nomination of lion. Stephen A.

In this event Georgia w ill probably be honored Fith a place on the Presidental ticket, in the person of his Excellency, Gov.

If, however, the Cincinnati Contention I should not unite upon cither of the throe ; most prominent candidntee now in the field ! for the Presidency there is a chance for IIow- ! ell Cobb to be nominated for that office, in which case the candidate for the Vice Presidency, rtttist come from another State.
