Senator Fisher attempted to prove
that Democrat were traitors, and
that nigger was as good aa himself.
To this latter no objections can be
made ; but wben the sentence was so
"reconstructed" aa to refer to white
people, wo deny it Fisher will be

to which I must reply. When I argue

brother Senators, and cortainiy very
seldom attack their constituents, and
never intend to wound their personal
feelings. The iki.a'or from Lancaster

Brave soldiers, all of them. True men.

Sir, I speak warmly, becanse I

have beard too much of such language
as has been uttered hero to night : 1
wish to hear it no more.
Sir, tho man who shot the provost
marshal voted for Abraham Lincoln ;
he lived within three miles of my own
town. I know all the farts and cir
cumstances connected with this affair,
and before any court and jury in this
Commonwealth he would not be con-
vioted of a crime higher thin man

his warrant, never produced his au
thority, and fired first upon the man
bo was oeeing irom mm. inese
are the facts of that caso. So much
for my defense. i '
Liet me as you what avails such
answers as you give to the charges
we bring against you 1 Wo have
charged the man you have eet aa your
idle with crimes, and we have endeav
ored to provo our charges. I quote
now Irom tno reports ot uongrees ol
the proceedings of the United States
government in 1803.
Mr. Stevena, of Pennsylvania, in
troduced a bill on the 27th of January,
for the enlistment or one hundred and
fifty thousand soldiers, persons of col
or of African descent. That bill was
passed ; they were enlisted. On the
first day ot May rebol legislation came.
1 find it in Mcrhorson s History of
the Itobellion. On the 27th of Janu
ary the negroes were authorised to
be put into the service. They wero
in the field before the first day of
May. When that day came, 1 find
upon the statute books of rebeldom
the law tor retaliation against the
".ployniont of negroes. What was
the retaliation T if wits flint negroes
should not be accounted the equals of
what men ; that a negro soldier would
not be exchanged for a whito soldier,
for they denied our right to put arms
in their hands.
Secretary Stanton said the negro
was the equal of the white man nnder
all cl-cuinstancos ; the rebels of the
South refused to recognize this, and
yon made the white men in Southern
prisons sutler inconsequence mat
is tho true history of this transact ion.
That is what you have to answer for.
Had you accepted their proposals, and
ezchangod white for while, you would
not have kept suffering white soldiors
in Southern prisons. You would not
have had ten thousand lives to ac
count fur. Then von miirht have said
that Secretary Stanton was not to
blame. The Senator from Bradford
and the Senator from Lawrence may
well talk about principle. Here was
principle with a vcnirence. A nrinci
ciple that declared rebels should not
say that negro was not equal to a
white man, and vindicated mat prin
ciple at the white man'sexpense. You
inflicted barbarity, ruthless barbarity,
upon your white soldiers to vindicate
tho principle thut it negro was the
equal of tho white man.
rnnciple; toinootn,that would tnus
punish men of your own race. I nn
ciplo I thut would thus entail degra-
dntion and suffering npon the men
you should protect hy, Senators,
if this be principle, to what '.fill not
principle drive you f To what base j
uses may we not come at last 1 The
Senator from Lawrence Mr. Browne
admits in effect that this was the prin
ciple that was everything with his
party. M r. Stanton would not rooog
nice the fact that a white soldier was
better than a negro; and bo deter
mined that a white soldior should not
be exchanged for a white soldier until
the rebels acknowledged that a negro
should be exchanged for white man.
Now, let me read yon again from
this book, on page 70. liulo 67 of
the rule of war is given as follows:
. "No Sallferwni hu s right to declare tbat tn
Bitea of s erruia iIam, eolor ftr .nditio., waea
prnnerle ereeni.ed M euldteri, will sol toft treated
by Bin ft. pulilM eaeniiea."
This rule was made to sustain tho
Jirlnciple yon avow. It was the legal
iirm of your icenrsed doctrine pun
ish the white soldier, because the reb
els rcfuso to recognize negroes as
soldiors.
We may even admit that tho rebels
did wrong, but would you add wrong
to wrong f Would you add barbarity
to barbarity, crime to criiuo, misery
to misery f Henntors may prate of
the history oi the past six years, and
talk virulently about Democrats.
But the time has gone hy wl.en you
can turn our flank by any such argu
ments. Where is the Union, to-daj 1
Ynu have had the power, aud the peo
ple hold you accountable. Where is
the Union of froo and iudependunt
States, with peace and prosjierity
within its borders 7
Two years and more have paused
since the rebellion was conquered, and
a dissevered and broken Union yet
remains. Military rule and absolute
' power rent itsolf within oar borders,
, Gaunt famine enters the door of many
i a household in the broad Korth. Mis-
! ery, degradation and crime pervaises
the South. We ask at your bands,
we demand of you, the ruling men of
the nation, aononntability for these
Crimea; we will oontinue to demand
at your hands an answer to those
charge. It is of you we ask, where
ia our country ? 1 Broken, dissevered
and shattered, we ask you to give It
back. Had you given us what you
could have given us, the Constitution
of our country, the Union of the States,
peace and prosperity would have now
pervaded all the land ; taxation would
have been light; the black man would
have enjoyed the fruits of his own
labor; the white mas would have
occupied the place God designed him
to occupy in the Government of this
Republic But your groat dogma is
that the black man is to have the
power; and the Senator from Brad
ford Mr. London very eloquently
alluded last night to the rainbow and
its prismatic colors, and the drops that
made up tho great arch, and his con
cluding sentence would imply that
black was one of the component colors
in the rainbow.
Mr. FiKina. Will theSenntorallow
me to interrupt him f I will answer
his question. I understood the Sena
tor, last night, to say they were Dem
ocrats whon thoy wont into the army ;
it is to that I was referring. Ho asks,
what are they now f I will answer
that question with great pleasure. A
very large majority of the bounty
jumpers and deserters were Republi
cans, or ra'.ncr were Democrats.
Mr. Wallace. The Senator unfor
tunately struggles against the train.
Laughter.
But all this is aside from the main
question on hand to-night. Senators
go too far when they enter the field of
general politics, the simple question
before us is whether the rutin whom it
is sought to prniso hy these resolutions
should he endorsed, as 1 said last
night, he is the representative of an
lagonism to the ideas we hold, lie
ia the representative of that party
who believe in striking down our free
institutions. 1 am unwilling to place
upon the records of this (senate any-
thing that wili indicate that I sustain
him in the slightest particular.
1 have said all 1 intend to say on
this subioct. 1 would not havo en

Besides those, Messrs. Rothschild

depreciated currency, and have in
structed us to receive payment only

You stato that should no arrange-

S' i I have to acknowledge the
receipt of your letter of 30th ult., ad
dressed to my house, In reply to our
application on behalf of Mossrs. N. M.
Itolhschild k Sons, of London, who
had instructed us to receive paymonl
of the Pennsylvania State stock now
due, nnder protest in caso the Stato
should not pay the principal in coin,
and in case no arrangement could bo
effected having in view a continuation
of tho Interest and an extension of the
timo of redemption of the capital,
Messrs. Rothschild act in this mat
ter as trustees of tho holders of tho
debentures of the United States Bank
of Pennsylvania, residing in Kngland
and on the continent, of iiuropo. You
socm so well acquainted with the
financial transactions of Mates and
individuals, that you must know that
by IheBe debentures hundreds ot wid
ows and orphans have beon reduced
to beggary.
MesHrs. Rothschild, in trying to
save for their constituents all they
can of the wreck, havo made through
my house an application, which they
as well as 1 deem just and equitable,
and this application was mude in a
courteous uud respecllul manner. In
so doing Messrs. Rothschild have
evinced a new proof, if any was want
ed, of their strict and honorable ap
preciation of the obligations assumed
by thorn as trustcca fur the innocent
holders of the most disastrous securi
ty ever negotiated by tlioir house, a
negotiation based principally upon
tho faith of the Stale ol'Puiiiisylvuuia
and its great banking institution.
Y'our reference lo tho liabilities of
my house, contracted in coin anil as
sumed by you to have been paid in
currency, is as Impertinent as it is
untrue in point of fact. August Bel
mont k Co. have never declined to meet
any demand tor the payment in ooin of
any liability eontraeted by them in
ooin, brjort or since tho Legal-tender
act.
If they had adopted the course to
wards thoir creditors which yon pro-
poso to take ou behalf of the State of
Pennsylvania towards her unfortunate
creditors represented by the Messrs.
Rothschild, there might have been
some excuso for tho lack of courtesy
which you have oxhibited in your let
tor to them.
REPUBLICAN.
In conclusion, I take this opportu
nity to express my regret that tho
Stato of Pennsylvania should havo for
its Treasurer a person wiio conid so
tar disgrace the state he assumes to
represent and forgot the dignity of
tho office he holds, as to reply to a
civil business communication In a
manner which must raise tho blush of
shame on the chock of every oiliacn
of that great and honored Slate. I
am your obedient servant.

William H. Komble, Esq., State
Treasurer of the State of Pennsylva
nia, llarrisburg.
"The blush of shame, has already
mantled tho chock of Pennsylvania's
good-looking State Treasurer. Ilia
party friends are assisting in prolong
ing the "b'.ush." The Philadelphia
Ledger, of the 11th Inst, says Mr.
Kemblo's lottor is "wantonly and scon
dalously insulting." The Doyloslown
Democrat thus refers to the matter ;
"The conduct of State Treasurer
Kemblo, In going out of the way to
insult the Messrs. Belmont k Co., and
a large elass of our citiaens, in nn offi
cial letter, is brutal. His lottor is
gross and vulgar, such a publio offi
cer is a disgrace to the State, and he
ought to be compelled to resign before
he is relieved by the newly elected
Treasurer. Official impudence cannot
go further. His allusion to the reli
gious In 1 1 n ot the Kothschilds is an
atrocious insult. Mr. Kemblo's letter
shows that he is blackguard and not
fit to hold any publio position in this
State. Lot him begone."
The N. Y. 7Vi7un has the following
first-class notice of Mr. Kcmble.
"Tho corrospondonco between Mr
August Belmont and Mr. W. ll.Kem

vania, which we published yesterday,

men with mingled sbuinoand satisfac

Mr. Kemblo's rank should have filled
an olliciul business letter with gross
and unprovoked insults, and with sat
isfaction that Mr. Belmont should havo
administered, in his reply, a severe
and woll-merited enstigation. Tho
lone of Mr. Kemblo's entire lottor is
coarso ; but tho vulgarity of the con

to the religious fullli of the Kollis
