SPEECH
OF THE 110 N. JAMES COOPER.
We give place below to the brief but el°.
quest speech of the Hon. James Cooper,iti
the U. S. Senate, on Monday week, on the
motion to receive a petition presented by Mr.
Hale, praying for a dissolution of the Union.
It will he read with interest, as presenting
in a brief space, not only what are the sen
timents of the honorable Senator, but also
the sentiments of . the People, whom he re
presents, in reference to the present eieiting
controversy, and its bearing upon the• union
of the States: In Pennsylvania, he who
would preach disuaiun is a traitor. There
is but one sentiment arnoug;thePeoplei and
that 'is pride in, and attachmenoo our glor
ious ..mfeileracy, and as Mr. Cooper says, an
earnest desire that it may be perpetuated to
the latest (posterity :
Mr. COOPER—I desire to say a single word
before the vote is taken on this question. I
have always been the, advocate of the right
or petition in its broadest and most extended
sense. I believe it is'a right which belongs
to every citizen, that it-is guarantied,to• him
by the constitution, and, that antecedently to
all human etiactnients the' right existed. I
have therefore, I repeat, been its advocate at
home, and in the halls of the National Le
gislature. But I have always , discriminated
thus fir, that the prayer of the petitioner
must be respectful to the body . to which it
was to be presented. This- petition I do not
think is respectful: for it asks" substantially
what the honorable Senator from Massachu
setts asserts that it does,- and that is, that we
shoidd violate the oaths which we took at
the chair in which you are sitting. It is not
respectful ; it is.-,not proper it is asking
more than we can grant : and lam therefore
bound, much as I ant iu favor. of the right of
petition, to vote against the eeception of the
petititin which - has been" presented.
In the State of Pennsylvania there is a
deep, I was going to say everlasting, attach
ment to the union of these States, and there
is no considerable or respectable portion of 1
the people of that Commonwealth that are
not tn: favor of the perpetuation of the union
of the States to the latest posterity. The',
sentirrient expressed in the petition is not the
sentiment of the People of that State, or of
but very few of -them at least, and I have
said that I am acting but in conformity to
the wishes of those whom I have the hon
or, with my respected colleague, to repre
sent here, and . that I shall have their appro.
Pal in voting against the reception of this pe
tition.
Sir, in' every emergency Pennsylvania will
be found steadfast to the • Unian., She is op
posed to the agitation of the question of dis
solution, whether at the North or the South.
'She believes it . is a queslion that ought not
to be mooted any where, and that it ja full
of misehevious consequenets to the good un-, 1
derstanding which ought to exist between the
different portions of the country. She knows
the value of the Union. She understands
that her own'interests, the interests of her
People, are wrapped np in 'the perpetration
of that Union. , But without any interested
motive to attach her to it. she is attached to
it. arid will remain attached to it. ' She
knows :Int it was achieved by the joint ef
forts of the old thirteen States—by the um-
ther'of the thirty States which now composv,
this ,Union. I represent the sentiments of l
my onstituents fully. The union is dear to I
me,!because it was achieved by the outpour-'
ing of the blood of the citizens of all the
States. The earth in the South was moist
: ened by the blood of the soldiers of the
North ; the battlefields of Brandywine and
• Sarntog,a were saturated with the blood of
Southern men ; and, sir, I am utterly and i
forever opposed to the severance of this
Union. When lor my children, or my
chi dren's children, choose to go to the South
and 'kneel at` the graves of-those who per
ished in the revolutionary struggle, I wish
to pass into no strange country-; I wish to
worship there in my own land. And when
Smithern men resort to Saratoga of Brandy
wine to contemplate the theatre-of the strug
gles and the glories of our armies, I wish,
they may come as citizens of this great con
federacy and not as foreigners, with pass
corm admitting them
Sir, I-hope - ; - * -- hen — these- W Is t at sur
round az. when these columns whia - uphold
the.dome above our heads shall have cram
bled. as granite and marble will crumble un
der the touch of:time, that this Union shall
be still zreserved, and that when other re
preientauves, the representatives of other
remote generatibns: stand here legislating
for posterity, they will still be legislating for
the whole "Union, as it now-is, with .such
sister States as may be - added in thecourse of,
time: lam opposed to the dissolntion,of
the Union. I knoW that, instead of being
respected - ;,by the world as we now are
respected, as soon as we shall have been
broken Up into little confederacies : the North
ern contederacY, the confederacir of the Mid
dle States, the Western.. confederacy,. and
the confederacy of the , Sonth—we shall,he
despised; and :those who Wished to see the
ptoblem'solved unsuccessfully . of man's • Cona
petencY for self government, thus i have
abundant occasion to rej6ice. Sir. entertaiti,
inn'these views, 1 shall" vOte against the re
ception of this petition.' and, if know it,
against all petitions, looking to, a disSolutke
of this Union, whether they come (Mtn the
Soutkor ream the North. And Ido hope tha
we shall agitate this question no more ;,that
we Wilt quench it by kin,dnes to each'other;
by
,doing nothing to provoke or excite hostil

GENERAL
An aged man, - without an enemy in the
na his Own house, and in his own bed,
is made . the Victim of a hutcherly, murder,
'for mere pay : ;;,,Deeri sleep_ had Wien on the
destined netuu,,anden all beneath his roof.
A .Ilealthful old mart, to whom • sleep was
sweet, the first sound slumbers of the night
held him in their soft but strong embrace.—
Tbe assassin, entqs," through the window
_already . prepared, into an Unoccupied apart
tient.With -noiseless • foot he paces the
'lonely ball, half lighted - by- the moon ; he
winds .up the ascent of the stairs, and reach
es the door of the chamber. Of this, he!
Moves the lock; by soft and continued pies--
sere, till it tufts ou its hinges without noise;
and he enters, ; tind beholds his victim before
him. The roam was uncommonly open to
- the admiSsion of light. The face of the in
nocent sleeperlwas turned' from the murder
er, and the beams of the moon, resting on
the gray lockief hii aged temple, showed
him where to strike. The fatal blow isgiy
en ! and the victim passes, without a strug- I
gle or a motion, from the repose of sleep to
the repose of death ! It is - the assassin's
purpose to nifake sure work; and he yet
plies the dagger, ;though it was obvious that
life had been destroyed- by the blow of the
bludgeon. He even raises the aged arm,
that he may not fail in his aim at the• heart,
and replaces it; again over the wounds of the
poniard! Toituish the picture, he explores
the wrist for the pulse ! He feels for it. and
ascertains that it ISeats do longer ! It is se ,
complished. ; The deed is done. He re-1
treats, retraces : his steps to the window, pas
ses out through it as he came in, and escapes.
He has done,the murder—no eye has seen
no-ear has heard him. The secret is his own,
and it is safe l_ •
Ah ! gentlerdea that was a 'dreadful mis
take. Such a secret can be safe nowhere.—
The whole creation of God has neither nook
nor corner alere the guilty can bestow it.
and say it is safe. Not to speak of that eye
which glances through all disguises, and be- I
holds everything as in the splendor of noon, '
such secrets of guilt are never safe from de
tection, even iy men. True it is, generally
speaking, that:" murder will out." True it
is, that Providence bath so ordained, and
doth so goverii things, that those who break
the great law-of heaven, by shedding man's ;
blood, seldoni succeed in avoiding discovery.
Especially, in a case exciting so much atten
tion as this, discovery must come, and will
come sooner Or later. A thousand eyes turn,'
at Once; to explore every man, every thing,
every circumstance, connected with the time,
and place :thousand ears catch every
whisper a tho u,
usand excited minds intensely
dwell on the scene, shedding all their light,
and ready tO ;kindle the slightest circum
stance into a blaze of-discovery. Meantime,
the guilty soul cannot keep its own secret.-
It is false te itself; or rather it feels an ir
resistible impulse of conscience to be true to
itself. labors, under its guilty possession,
and knows net what to do with it. The bit- -
man heart wits not made for the residence of
such an inhabitant. It finds itself preyed on
by a torment, which it dares not acknowledge
to God or man. A vulture is devouring it,
aad it can teak no ;sympathy or assistance,
either from heave') or earth. The secret
which the mtuderer possesses, soon comes to
possess him ; and like the evil spirits of
which we read, it overcomes him, and leads
him whitheiSoever it will. He feels it beat
ing at his heart, rising to his throat ; andde- '
manding, disclosure. He thinks the whole
world sees Kin his face, reads it in hii eyes,
and almost hears its Workings in the very
silence of hia ; thoughts. It has become his
master. It betrays his discretion, it breaks'
down his courage, it conquers his prudence.
When suspicions,. from without, begin to
embarrass him, and the net of circumstance
to entangle !him, the fatal secret struggles
with still greater Violence toburst forth. It
must be confessed, lit will be confessed, there
is no refuge from confession but suicide, and
suicide is confession.

IS
FEARFUL APPAgItIdN,
TYLANSI4TED MOM TUE GERMA:g
In .a wile 'and remote region of the Scottish
Highlands, there Mood on a rocky height, an
old fortress:;.
One stonily evening, in harvest, its lord
looked front his window into the darkness,
and over the Well guarded court of the castle,
towards the opposite hills, where the tops of
the trees, skill visible, rustled and - waved in
tiw - dark bine heavens. The rivulet in the
valley sent forth a wild and strange sound,
and the creaking weather-cocks clattered and
bawled as if chiding the storm.
The scene and the hour were congenial to
the mind of the lord of the castle. -He was
no longer the mild and indulgent master. His
only daughter had lied from the fortress with
a handsomesouth, far inferior to her in birth,
but a sweoer singer and harp-player, than
any inhabitant of the wild Highlands ; and
soon after !: I their flight, the lover was found
dashed to pieces in the bottOm of a rocky val
ley, into which, in the darkness of the night,
he had fa*n. Thereupon the daughter, by
an unknoivti pilgrim sent a letter to her
father, saying that, night having robbed her
of her loyer, her eyes were opened to her
fault; that:she had retired to a convent, to do
the - Most severe Penance, and that her father
would never see her more. From this event,'
the lord of the castle had-become almost as
-'obdurate ak 'the surrounding rocks, and un
feeling as the stony pavement of his fortress.
As he nbw looked from the window, he
saw in the yard a lantern, moved backwards
and.forwaids, as if in the hand of some one
who with' tottering steps, stole across the
area. Angrily he called out—" Who goes
there 7" for his domestics had strict orders to
admit no one within the walls ; and since the
flight of , the young lady,.these commands
were so rigidly obeyed, it seemed as if lifeless'
statues alone - dwelt within.
To the hard of the castle there came a soft
" All oid, old Woman," it said, "begs some
food, noble knight."
But the humble demand was impetuously
:refused,
Spy-;--vagrant witch ! " were the appel
lations shiiweied upon the beggar ; and, be
cause she , did not immediately retire, but re
iterated het petition with a fervent. , though
;weak voice,, the= knight, in the wildness of
his - wratti called on his blood-howads to hunt
the bmgar-woman ttway.
Wildly, did the ferocious dogs, ( rush forth ;
hot scattily had they approached the old wo
man,
.witert • she touched the strongest and
fierces with &slender wand. The domestics
who.hadicome out, expected that,the savage
dog would tear her in penes, Wt. - bowling,
he turned, and the dthers laid themselves
down. Whining before the beggar.
Againjttie lord of the castle niged,thnidn:
,hut ancrtruxined, and lay
'•
A sttinge shuddering. seized • him, which
redoubled" when the'old woman raised her
lantern nn.high, and her long white hair,ap:
peared *aving in the storm., while. with a
sad and threatening voice, she exclaimed—
!' Them in the heairenr, who seen and
lietieet
Tremblin,g the , knight retired from` the
window, an d the people tp, give her
what she' demanded. The domestics, fright
ened at the apparition, placed some food
without in a basket, and then secured the
doors—all the while repeating prayers. until
they heard the strange old woman carry away
the fbod. As she stepped out of the castle
gates, the hounds moaned mysteriously after
her. ,
•
From this time, regularly, every third eve
ning, the lantern was seen in the castle-yard.
and no'sooner did its strange twinkling begin
to be visible through the darkness, • and the
light steps to be heard to totter softly over
the pavement ' than the , lord of the castle
hastened back from the Window, the domes
tics put out the basket of food, and thehounds
moaned sorrowfully till the apparition bad
vanished, -
On'e day—it was now the beginning, of
winter, the knight followed the chase in the
wildest part of the mountains. Suddenivihis
hounds darted up a steep height, and, expec
ting a good capture, at the risk of imminent
danger, he forced his shuddering 'horse over
the slippery, stony ground. Before a cavern,
in the middle of the ascent, the houbds stood
still ; but how felt the knight when the figure
of a woman stepped to the mouth of tote abyss,
and with a stick drove back the dogs ! 'rom,
the silvery locks of the woman, os well 'as
from - the restless and low moanings of the
hounds. and his own internal feelings, he
soon perceived that in this dread spot the
lantern-bearer stood before him.
Half frantic, he turned his horse's head,
buried his spurs in his sides, and gallopped
down the steep, accompanied by the yelling
hounds, towards the castle.
Soon after this strange occurrence, the lan
tern was no longer seen in the collrt of the
castle.—They waited one day—several days
—a whole week passed over, but the appari
tion was no longer seen.
If its first appearance had alarmed the lord
of the castle and his domestics, its disappear
ance occasioned still more consternation.
They believed that the former prognosti
cated some dreadful event, which the latter
betokened to he near. On the knight this
anticipation had a terrible effect ; he:became
pale and haggard, and his countenance assu
med sitch a disturbed appearance, the inmates
of the eastle were of opinion that tie appari
tion gave warning of his death. It was not so.
One day, as was his custom, the knight
rode the ch'tse, and in his present distraction
of mind he approached,, unawares,' that part
of the country where the old woman with
the white hair had appeared to him, and
which he, from that time, had with great
care avoided. Again the dogs sprung up the
height, howling . , and looking fearfully into
the cavern. The affrighted baron in vain
called them back. They stood as if fascina
ted on the dreadful spot ; but on this occasion,
no one appeared to chase.them away. They
then crept itito the cavern, and from its dark
bosom the knight still heard their moanings
• and cries.
•2 At last, summoning resolution. he sprang
from his horse, and. with determined cour
age, clambered up the steep height. Advan
cing into the cavern, he ;beheld the hounds
crouched round a•wretched mossy' couch, on
which the dead body of a woman lay stretched
out.
On drawing near her, he recognized the
pure white hair of the formidable lantern
bearer.
The little horn lantern stood near her, on
the ground. and the features were those of
his only child !
More slowly than the faithful hounds, who
from the beginning had known their young
Mistress, did the unhappy knight become
aware whom fie saw before him ; but, to dis
sipate every doubt, there
,lay, on the bjeast
of the deadbody. a billet, on which, withher
own blood, her hand bad traced the loQow
ing words
" In three eights the wanderer's hair be
came white, through grief for the death of
her lover.—She saw it In the brooks. Her
hair he hadzoften called a net, in which his'
life was entinigled.—Net and life were by one
stroke destroyed. She then thought of those
holy ones of . the church, who in humility
had lived unknpwn and deSpised beneath the
Parental roof, and, as a penance, she has be
sought alms from her father's castle, and
lived among the rocks from Which her lover
fell. But her penance draws,tienr its.end—
the critrfson stream ails. Ah ! fath—".
She would have written "Lather," the
, streani litasefltausted, ivlticli, with unspeak
able sorrow, the knight pemeived had issued
!rota a deep wound in her left-arm,
lie was found by his servants near the
corpse, in silent prayer, his hounds moaning
beside him. He buried his daughterin the
cavern, from which he never afterwirds
ONA
came out. The unhappy hermit forced every.
one from him ; his faithful dogs alone he
could not drive away ; and mournfully they
watched together by the grave of their yoUng
mistress, and beside their sorrowing lord ;
and when he also died, their, sad howlings
first made it known to the Surrounding
•
country.
