It was recommended by these signers as a work of great public merit, and approved for general circula tion. But I would not expel liitn for that. No, I would not even censure him lor that, except to difler with liitn as one member may differ trout another. 1 would argue the question with him.

And vet thin t- the gentleman whose voice was fi,r dis honorable war when the country vvas in a Con dition ot profound peace! The gentleman, 1 atu sate, will not complain at ibis little ipwode in Ins political history. Those who are swift to accuse sliou.d not. complain it their own deeds make retort upon them, 1 would be the last man to throw my colleague's record in hi* face but lor the spirit he has shown here. Sir, let him compare fuii.lt and works upon tiie subject of the i ttion, upon the subject ot pea -e, upon tho subject ot fraternity, upon the subject of the preservation of ttie Governne..t, with the gen tleman from Ohio t-Mr. Long.) an 1 he will have no gruun tio iiurt tiielir.-t stone. the admoni tion oi the Saviour coiitc with peculiartorce to an iudoiser of ine Helper book, loan inciter ot riot, blood, "war and disunion. L-t htm that is without sill cast the lirst stone at the gentle man from Ohio for daring to express his senti ments upon this floor. If thai injunction had been obey oil, my colleague would have staved, his it,oci and remained in the •■speaker's chair. But let me inquire a littie tunln-r tit regard to the right ol my ollctigue to deal harsldv wj'h the political frailties of his fellow tue.lib " - the great AtioliUotiisi and Disumoiiist, I itoiupson. Ido not know whether the Speak er presidi d on that occasion, as he did upon a former occasion of a somewhat similar charac ter, but 1 have no doubt he gave the ligbl of his handsome, his atinaole, and most beiiiiiceut countenance. Still be cannot en lure that the gentlemen from Onto and Alnryland should have llieit utterances upon this floor from their own seats, whatever they may be. My distinguish ed colleague, the Speaker, says they were for disunion. For the sake of the argument, sup pose they were. Let us see what kin !of com pany the gentleman himself keeps; let us see who it was to whom he gave aid and encour agement in his work of destruction aud career ot infamy. 1 hold itt rity hand the resolutions of the American Anti-Slavery Society, pas-ed some time about the year ISr>o, and two of them read as follows: "A'csoAvd, Flint while we would express our deep gratitude to all those earnest men and wo men who And time and strength amid their la- ; burs in behalf of British reform to study, un derstand and protest against American slavery, 1 to give ns th.-ir sympathy and aid by munificent contiitton-' and by holding our iir.ion no to ' tue contempt of Europe, we feel it would not be invidious to mention William and Mary Hovvitt, Henry Vincent and George Thompson, as loose to whose uniting advocacy our cause is especially indebted in this couture, as well as tor I tie Hold it ha* gained on the hearts of the licitt-h people. "Resoled, 'i'hat the discriminating sense of, justice, the steadfast devotedness, the generous uiuintU.vm'e, the untiring zeal, the industry, skill, taste an ! genius with which the British Aboli tionists have co-operated with us for the extinc tion ol slavery command our grntitu le. From the Abolitionists of Iv.tglun I, Scotland and Ire land, wo have received renewed and increasing assurances and proofs ol their constant and en- j lightened zeal in behalf of the American slave. Liberal gilts from all these countries, falling be hind none ot the most bounteous of former years, helped to lill the scanty treasury of the slave.' Cluster round him, you men of the latter day! Your love of the Union is a modern invention It comes to you late in life. It is a thing in tende Ito deceive. Y'ou inav as well stand by your old disunion colors. Rally, I say, round this 1> itish standard-bearer of the American Abolitieni.-ts of the American Anti-Slaw rv So ciety. who holds up our Union to the contempt and derision of Europe, and receive public thanks for it. Olt, how would the authority and power which these men now invoke roll hack upon them if it were proposed to punish them for their disunion principles! But I would not punish tlicm for even that expression of their sentiments. Not ul all. If you want disunion, say so. and dis cu-s it like men. Truth i* never afraid when 1 left free. Error is never a dangerous element , when truth is left free to combat. I say to you 2 her . what you have to say, say it, but do not , enjoy your right t'-us to speak your sentiments, s and then meanly deny to others the same right. - The Speaker, however, is doubtless satisfied s with tiie political company he keeps, and I have - no right to complain.

A i.u indeed it may ut-u with warm approval in ** :;\i I i Ti. i .. may fs; that lie is correctly representing his con stituents. I differ front him widely, and indu ing so 1 am perfectly sure that I properly rep resent the principles of the district in which I live. According to the views of the Speaker, the people who sent him here are somewhat old fa-Liqmed in their ideas. They live in a beau tiful country. They are settled in one of the oldest and richest portions of our great State. The uid men are familiar with Harrison and Taylpr, who both fought Indians on the fertile , hank* of the Wabash, and both died in the mansion of Presidents They have seen the country prosper ail 1 becom.' great under the old Constitution an l prin -iples of the fathers. They \ do iiut think that V intltam Lincoln can make j a better government than the one which suited j George W ashing ton. They are content with; what they have. Y'ou think you can do better! than Jefferson. !Ltncock. Madison and \datns. j I' [> ople ! represent do not think you can. j It' they are to choose between two forms' of government they would take that of Washing-, too instead of that of Lincoln.

You cannot come to me with your charges ! about the war. I have done my duty. No dollar of money has been paid out to feed and clothe the soldiers for which I have not voted, j unless detained by sickness from my seat. I did 1 not want this war, it ought to have been avoid- j el. I think to-day that peaceful remedies will j better restore the Union than the prosecution of war under the present A hni nisi ration. But | while vve are in war I stand by the soldiers in j the fi IT The domineering gentleman from the j third district of Ohio (Mr. Seheuok) cannot say i as much. I will now attend to him for a few j moments. Mr. Speaker, I will send to the Clerk's desk, to he read, a curious paper, which shows how the gentleman from the Dayton district gave! aid and comfort to tiie enemy in time of war I it a former peti 'd of our history. llow vio- j lent was that gentleman a while ago! How utt- j glared upon f/itS'SffllHli"tJ .How fiercely he; the power to wreak ihe wishes that were inflam- j ing iii* sul h" would have waged a more dan- j gerou* war upon u* here than he has ever been ! able to wage upon theenemv in the field Il tvv ; savagely he menaced this side of lite House! j Aid and comfort to the enemy ! I will prove the j gentleman liimsv If guilty of that crime by his : own statement. You say that -peaking against war gives aid j and comfort to the enemy. You say that vo- j ting against -applies gives aid and comfort to j the enemy. I wiil send to tiie Clerk's desk a j series of resolutions offered by the gentleman j from Ohio in ItSIT, one month belore the glri- j ous battle of Buena Yi-ta was loughl—one j month, Sir, (to Mr. Cravens.) before you and | other gallant gentlemen upon litis floor charged ; the enemy through a hail of death on that field, I a battle-field which gave a President to the Re- ] public. It will he seen that whether or not the gen- j tleman from Ohio has a Mexican face, lie had ! a Mexican heart at that time in his breast. He j vvas then on the side of the enemies of the : country, lie off'rod resuiulbns to withdraw our army Irom AF-xieo, to be torn, harressed and scourged by the enemy hanging upon its rear. We were fighting a foreign Power then. Are the Southern people worse than a foreign people ? Will you wage more relentless war up on them than upon foreigners ? Are Mexicans i better than the people of Virginia, Tennessee, Louisiana, and the other Southern States? At the expense of being declared disloyal, I say that I would be willing to take them back into my fraternal embrace under the terms of the old Constitution. Aye, Sir. gladly and fondly, I vvoul 1 rather make peace with them than with the filthy, broken, fragmentary, diluted race of Mexicans. i mio eletk then read, at the request of Mr. Voorhces. a long series of resolutions offered in tiie House of Representatives by Mr. Hchcnck during the war between the United States and j the Republic of Mexico. These resolutions be ing too long for our space, vve insert only a por tion of them, as follows:J •'Rrioltvl by tlir. Senate ami Howe of' Rcpre saittihrc.i tf t.ie United States of America in Con ijiess assembled , That in order to terminate the war unhappily existing between the U- !S. and Mexico, with due regard to the rights and na tional existence and independence of the two Republics, and with a view to bring about an honorable peace, the President of the United i States lie requested to withdraw all troops mid t military forces of ihe United States now west i iff the Rio Grande iu Mexico to the east side oi • the river. ; "That ail volunteers now in the service ol - the United States lie discharged, taking due care i in the order of disci targe, that provision be made t lor the rciorn of all such volunteers to their re i specttve houies, or to the States in which they t were mustered into the service of the govern , ment. "That the President bo requested and rnlvis -1 ed to keep all, or such portion as he may deem !> necessary tor that purpose, ot the regular artnj , under hi* command, along or near the wes' , tern frontier ot the U- States, pre fed torch.- t or prevent any encroachment or depredatior i. by Mexican citizens or soldiers on the territory. - propertv. or people oi* this Union. wL'ue ant WIItH brought to the number that was in service on , the tirsr of Jan. 1817. "That it is against the policy an 1 interest o! j this Government to wage a war for the conquest I of teritorv, and there should not b • acquired, by any treaty to be negotiated and concluded between the United Stales and Mexico, any J territory whatever additional to t'u territory now lying legally and properly within the pres ent limits of the United States, or within the j j bound.try of any no.v existing state of this L ' nioii. '■ "That no application of any money appro ' printed, or to be appropriated, by act ot this j Congress for carrying on the existing war with j Mexico, or for increasing, strengthening, or in j any way supplying tlie military or naval defen ces or lurcos of this government shall be made, nor is any expenditure thereof authorized, ex cept such application and expenditure be strict ly :n act ordance with the declaration and provis ions ot these it solutions." Mi. Vouchees continued. The llousc has heard the resolutions that 1 sent up to be read. I have simply to say in regard to them that if j tile moors upon this side of the House are trai ; tors in consequence of their opinions antagonis tic to the present war, the gentleman from Onio . , was a traitor in January, 18-iT, when he intro duced these resolutions. If there is aid and comfort to tlie reltels in arms iu the position ot any gentleman here, then there was aid and comfort thrice over to the Mexicans in the res- 1 olutionsjust read. Every Mexican hyucer that murdered our wounded men hailed tiie name oi | the gentleman from Onio as his friend. Every ■ ! guerrilla that preyed upon our trains, struck down and murdered weak escorts. cut off sup ' plies from our starving soldier-, hailed the gen- i tleinun from Ohio as a co-worker with him in ! expelling the American army from Mexico- 1 The Mexicans were working to get our army ' I out of their country, and the gentleman from 1 | Onio was working to the same end. I j rir, Onto seems unfortunate. If the gentle- < ! inan whom you seek to expel (Mr. Longj be uii- | faithful to his country in time if war, he has < very illustrious precedents in the former history | of his State. Her voice has been heard in the other branch of Congress in tones forever meui- ' orable. Aid and comfort to the enemy! Cor- 1 win stands very high with this Ad"**'"**** l *"" He is very properly a Aluaster to Mexico. He . s . o JJ^ ;rs ut Santa Anna to murder graves in a foreign land. To tlie best o'f tlic'n i ability they obeyed his bloody instructions. — j Such was the position of these distinguished i friends of the Administration from Ohio during a war with a foreign foe—Mr. Cor win in the Sen ate, and the gentleman from the Dayton district (Air. Schenck) in the House. Tiiey were co-op- 1 crating together. By voice and vote they were encouraging the Mexicans to light, and to light on 1 and while our troops were tnct in front by .Mexicans, they were assailed in the rear by these j distinguished allies. : j By the last resolution just read at the desk j ! no money was to be paid to our troops except jin accordance with the provisions ot those res- < 1 olutions, that is, upon condition that they should i Ibe withdrawn from the enemy's country. No l • pay was to be given them while they were i ! mere. The meanest vote that anv man, in mv i i • . - judgment, ever gave is a vote to stop the rations : ] |of the soldier. It matters not whether the war I > lie right or wrong, the soldi-r must be paid.— ] i i'o starve him is no statesmanlike plan by which 1 I 'to stop an unjust war. Yet that was preciyly ' j the vote given by the gentleman iioui Uuio, !, ! who now delivers a lecture to the House upon j j the subject of American patriotism. There it stands recorded. There is a Nemesis of poli- j I ties which comes back to avenge injustice and ! I iniquity. It comes now to lonn-ut and plague j i the gentleman from Ohio. It avenges the wrong j J and outrage which he seeks to iuliiet uj on his I i colleague; it comes now in the face of the sol- ' , diers of this war, and tells them that the gen- j . tlemaii from Ohio would leave them to beggary j and want if he should become dissatisfied with j this war as he was with the war against Mexi- j ;'j co. What man has done man will do again, i i C 3' • ' j cir, I accept no lecture Upon the subject of! patriotism from such a source. But at the same ! i 1 time I treely admit that the gentleman from O- j . hio had the right, the moral, legal, and political j 1 right to introduce the resolutions in regard to j - the Mexican war if they embraced his senti- j ■ menffs. 1 would have neither expelled norcen- j sured him for his action. They were wrong in - my judgment, but if they were right in his, then ; •t he was right in offering tliera. lam for toler iJ At ion in ail matters of opinion. We cannot all : 1 i think alike. God did not make us so.
