CONGRESS.
SENATE.—After the reception of a message from
the President, recommending that the thanks' of
Congress be tendered to Acting Rear Admiral Poe

was reported to expedite the printing of the Presi
dent's me ssage. The resolution to censure the Ex
ramining Commission for the Banks expedition
'transports was called up, considered, and postponed:
The credentials of the Hon. William A. Richardson,
Bens tee from Illinois, were presented, and the gen
tleman took his seat. The bill granting ald to the
Stale of Missouri in emancipating her slaves was
taken up, and debated at length. The bill was finally

an executive session, the Senate adjourned.
Housx.—After the transaction of some unimport
ant business, the bill authorizing the President to
employ troops of African descent was taken up, and
considered until the House adjourned.'
PENNSYLVANIA LEGISLATURE.
SztvAtx.—The report from the committee ap
pointed to instruct the governor to demand the re
moval of Pennsylvania sick and wounded soldiers
to their homes was adopted. A bill was introduced
empowering the Mayor to appoint port wardens for
this port, for three years from January next. The
supplement to the Fifteenth and Green-streets
Railway bill was taken up and passed. Atesolu
tion directing the: yinance Committee to ascertain
what amount of bounty money had been paid to
volunteers by dliTerent counties, towns, andoities,
in the State, was adopted and the Senate adjoiarned.
lionsz.-L-The House ocCupied its entire session
with the consideration of the resolutions! directing
Governor Curtin to proceed to Washindon and
inquire why Mr. Boileau WAS arrested and demand
hikimmediate release. We would direct the mem
here to the columns of ?Twit Prises this morning,
'where they.ivill find the fixate of the ease plainly

' , ' , 'lllteCourse of Judie tudlow.
-Intik; year 1.856 Dams ,R Immo*, now
)edge of the Criminal•,:Couit, . made
speech the hall of the Washington'En
gine house. 'He . ivis thenan antbitiotit‘ as
.pirant for judicial honors, and in:active
member of the Democratic party Hi' the
course of that speech•he made..tlie verr .re.
markable declaration that ifjfat;ra3i H.
SEWARD should be elected President of.the
United States, he would be 4n favor of a
'dissolution of the Union, and . thntthe South
would be jistified in dissolving the Union
in. such an event._ We make this statement
in justice to Judgelvni t ow,:and in order to
show that there should ' be no occasion for
swpriseat his present singular course: At
'the OMR? time, having exhibited his record
as a Democratic politician, we may be also
permitted to say a word or two in reference
to h
is record as Democratic judge. In the
first Place, we may well question the right,
or at least the propriety, of a judge acting as '
he has done without - legal evidence, or.
•in an exceptional case by his own know
ledge. Judge Lulu , * had neither.. A His
information • was based upon ruipOr,Oi...
hearsay. We may imitate the sentimente
of the 'Judge, and say it will be tit plld day
for justice arid law when such a ft,undation
for judicial action shall be allowed in this
Commonwealth. Li the= end,. it must be
destructive of all individual rights, and,
-besides, it world be committing the very ,
act he denounces in the Government.
Examined in this point- of view, the con;
• duct of Judge LUDLOW appears still more
: reprehensible. He undertook to -: deal with
.the Grand Inquest in an imper ative manner,
? - by commanding them to lay aside all other
`business and attend to the matter - relating to
the military arrest of the editor of the Even.-
. ing Journal. We should like to See the
law that sustains him in such a course.
The Grand, Inquest is the great repository
of, the popular power over - criminal pro-,
. ceedings. • The Judge merely ' charges
• them, That is..to say, he gives them his
views as to the law upon any facts like
. ly to come before them; but they
,are not
bound by his views;
they are the judges of
the law, and cannot : be controlled or ordered
• bytim. -He may tell them that " such an
• event occurred in' my presence ; this is' a
partiOar offence, and I charge you that
.
A. B, who .committed that offence, is guilty
of an not rendering Win amenable to the
laW," and the Grand Jury - may at
"once return a bill of tax to theirignoraraus,
and direct the judge of the proper county
,to pay the costs. We make this illustra
tion in order- to show he real power of a
grand inquest, arid the judge who presides
over the court. The deference paid-by all
courts to the grand inquest •is well known,
and the •great effort in the mind - of every
judge is to avoid prejudicing the Mind. of
the jurors, even while giving them the pro
per legal information. For the information
of our readers, we will recall
of intercourse between the judge and jury..
" The District Attorney," the judge would
say, • "informs 'me that he will lay -before
you one or more bills for forgery.
,I will,
therefore, tell you what facts are necessary
in law to constitute the crime of forgery,
fie." Formerly, for the purpose of ex
hibiting 'the respect of the court to the
grand inquest, the judge rose when he
charged them, and continued standing until
he had closed. But Judge LUDLOW not
only assumed the power to order them to
• put aside all other bainess,, but also to .
bring before him what facts they shouldas
certain. Now, all this -We believe- to be a
grave error, and a violation of the lights of
the people in their grand : 1 49, 11 e4t-:*:: ) ,r 11:18
body meets alone ; no one •has,a.right to be•
present without their consent. at any of
their sessions: They meet oir their Own
journments r the'court 'cam* interfere
with them. They are sworn to keep. secret
what has transpired •at their lotions; so
that .a direction to them to proceed upon
• any particular subject, to
.the exelusion of
others, would be an attempt oa the part of
the judge to possess himself of that secret.
This course 'is remarkable when it Pro
' fesses to , be based upon 'zeal for the:pre
servation of the Constitution, and the rights
guaranteed under , it.: The fifth article of
the Amendments to the Constitution' of the
United States recognizes grind juries ; end
requires their inquest as a prelindru4r: to,
-any trial for a capital or infaniatei crime,
and thus impliedly demands that their eaten
shall be free and untrammelled. This simple
and brief reference to the legal forms neces
sary in the administration of law will ilia
that the anxiety of Judge LUDLOW to array
himself against the Government has led him
to the commission of many 'grave errors.
• Perhaps he was stimulated 'to his' ea:ger,
haste, by , the knowledge that the term of
his court expires to-day, and with it, the
jurisdiction of his Grand Inquest. At
. all
h
-events,e has gained the 'notoriety he was
evidently thirsting for, and which no loyal
man will envy the posiession. ,
The Post Office Bill.
Perhaps there is • no one bra * nch of the
General Government that more closely idea..
:tifles itself with the interests and wants of
.the people than that of the Post Office. De-.
...partment. It is one of the main arteries - of
the, Government, through which passes the
life and spirit of the nation, vivifying the
whole system. To control this department
requires unceasing labor. Mind as well as
body are alike exercised to preserve in per
fect order the vast machinery that keeps it
. moving in harmony. And it is highly grati-'
Eying for us to say that, under the efficient
administration.of theipostal department, the
severed States now; in rebellion have not
retarded its action,! or disturbed its har- -
mony. To still further • facilitate. tlie .busi- -
• mess operations of the department,, the Hon.:
J. Co - LT.4I4En has Prepared a bill for that!
-propose, which should command the imme
diate attention of both Houses of Congress,
as it has already occupied that
.of the people.:
Every suggestion and improvement that has
been made and adopted for the formation of
this bill, •have been directed immediately to
'one object—that of accommodating the
-public, and* systethatising the plan, facili
• tate all postal operations.
. . This bill embraces many important im-:
„proven - tents, and is based upon the late re-:
port of Postmaster iGeneral Bzein. Mr.
;:cOLLAIiiEB, who was at one time Post.
master General, is fully capable of perform-:
the task. This .hill strikes, at the very;
roots of some local: objections to the old;
system, and proposes improvements which
must, on reflection, convince every thinking,
man of their importance. It empowers the:
• Postmaster General! to appoint..all post-i
masters whose annual salary is less Than.
$l,OOO. It requires postmasters, mail agents,
and persons employed in the General Post
Office to make oath 40 their fidelity and
loyalty, and awards the compensation in
five classes :.
"The first between $4,000 and 3,000 ; the second
between $3,000 and $2,000 ; the third between
.$2,020
and $1,000; the fourth between $l,OOO and $lOO,
and the fifth less than $lOO. The salaries to be
assigned by the Postmaster. General from a compari
son of the average salaries of the four preceding
years and may be readjusted not oftener than once
in Iwo years. s The salaries to take effect in July
next. In offices of the first and second classes it is
proposed to allow a just and reasonable sum for the
cost of rent, fuel, lights, clerks, &c., and also to‘ the
offices of the other classes which are distributing
• offices, for clerk hire.
• "All box rents and other perquisites tote account
ed for by the postmaster, the box rents and postage
to be always prepaid, and an oath made to the quar
terly returns on the penalty of perjury. The Post
master. General is to regulate the periods during
which dead letters shall remain in any post office;
those containing valuable enclosures to be registered
in the Department, and when not returnable to the
wnters, or the persons written to, shall be included
in the receipts, and be subject to reclamation. Let
ter-carriers to be appointed, and. receiving await
and boxes established, and provision made for carry
log local newspapers and small . packages.' The
rate of half-ounce letters 3 cents, drop-letter Teents,
and no carriers' fee allowed ; registered letters to
pay a fee of 20 cents; the newspaper postage on
weeklies, per quarter, 5 cents; semi-weeklies, 10
cents; tri-weeklies, 15 cents; dailies, six issues per
week, 30 cents. four ounces to be 'the standard
weight of periodicals; small papers; sent in a pack
age to one address, at the same rates." •
Ilk this it will be perceived the one,cent
carrier's fee for the delivery and collection
of letters is . abolished ; instead of Which;
tbey .r will receive a regular salary. In., all
large-cities the one-cent system was, and is,
nli4 annoying to both carrier and receiver.
-It keepa.up a constant feeling of irritation
heiween :Paities, more particularly at this
time, •when the scarcity of small change •
renders even the production of this amount
:an effort of some difficulty. The salary
system will facilitate business and save both
pc)stinaster and carrier much time, if not
'labor. The delivery of letters immediately
.im•their arrival is a great desideratum. As
;all laws are made with an eye to the,in-.
..terest of the poor, as well as the rich—the
.merchant or the .mechanic—it strikes us
that doing away with the one-cent system,
and employing good and faithful carriers, it ,
would be . found to operate as favorably to
one class affit would to the other, and meet
- theapproval..ef The P ostmaster Gene
-nil; his - report•of the, , Post Office Depart-,
limit ; speaking uponihis sul3ject, says "I .
'also recommend .the abolition of, the one-.
.cent eaarier's -..fee for the delivery:and co l - .

- assaying and daatffy tariff on- deliireted
and. 'collected letters;:that . the charge . 34;0n
'local or drop letters be made unhforin the'
Prepaid rate of two cents." The Postn4h3r
General, being himself a businesaindii, prac
tical as well as theoretiealjn'ill ,his views,
has been fortunate in hyitrg secured able' co
adjutors, whose „linsiness 'qualifications and
..honesty of puipose have materially aided
herculean labors.' And he will

LETTER FROM gi OCCASIOIITAL.”
WASIII*GTON, Jan: 30; 1863
Have you ever noted the difference be
tween the enemy of the Government in this
terrible struggle for its existence, who is
doing his baleful work at home; safe; pros- ;
Terms, and irresponsible, and the friend of
that Government on the battle-field, who.is
risking his life that it may be perpetuated and
preserved? If you have not, then, be sure
that there is a very wide difference, and , all .
the advantages are on the side of the traitor.,

Bshas in his paper an article in which':he .
substantially_ recognizes the rebellion

and - comp/I." Who that reads the rebel
.
neWspapers can---doubt that .the sympa

. the free States are adhering to
the'enemies of the Government, and 'giving
them aid and corafort?
Now, if ever treason was coinmitted, - "it was
committed by Mr. Boileau. It Was not pro
bably his fault, nor the fault of the person
who wrote --the article, if •-the overt act
did not folliiwthe invocation tcr,it. What
is the result ? The Dernocratie,,ieiders are

outrage • that has been committed upon
Mr. Boileau. The DemoCiatic, leaders in
the Legislature and' in the •City Councils
are stirred up to a Point of excessive anger,
and• professional politiCians in yOur .streets
follow these .examples in wild abuse of the

trial and a severe and condign punishment.

there :is " tyranny " anywhere, is it not
among those who constantly ombarrass the
Government by insisting . that they may .use .
and abuse their franchises, in order to aid

by incessant efforts to shield the com-.

. Mr. BAYARD (Dem.), of .Delawirb, said he
would throw. no: obstacle in the way of emanci
pation in the State:of Missouri, but he could find no
warrant in the Conatitulion,fordnterfering with the
institutions of other States. In reference to his
own State he would only that she be left to do
as all other States had done—to deal with this insti
tution. in her own weir', and in her own time. All
they claim is that they are the .beet judges of the
way in which' they 'Would act on this subject.
There was great danger of making a collision of
'races, iri thus attempting to change the social re
lation.ota whole people.- lie thought Congreis had
better:drop this subject entirely, and leave it to the
judgmeiit's.of the in the future as it had been
in the . , •
Mr. HEN/MESON, (13:) . Moved. to 'extend thee

riodbf final emancipation to 1886,4 instead of MS, as
in the bill. .
• Mr: HOW,JUID (Rep.) hoped not. That'would-be
toe .lorig , time. He - hoped to live to seethe day
'when there would not. be a single slave on the soil
of the United States, and to join in the festivities
and hear joyous shputa of a universally free people
on that glorious day. He considered the-faith 'of
Congress pledged to' aid any State in emancipation,
and he was ready at any time to act up to the pledge.
Mi. CLARK (Rep.),
,of Rhode Island, also op
potted the amendment. He was ready at any time
to keep the pledge made aid any State; but did•
not think the 'United States ought to bear - all the
• burden, for a great shfire'of the benefit would result
to the State of 'fifissoutri. He was willing to give
'ere *aid to emancipate the slaves in. Missouri by.
1865, for bethought slavery Was the cause of the re
b'ellion, and when we put clown slavery the' rebellion
is put down. iinnvould place this jubilee 'of slavery
fen yearsearlier.' Re had rather pour out the Money
of.the country than the blood of her children.
Mr. LANE (Rep;), of Kansas, thought that, the
`passage Of the bill was of the utmost importance to
'his State. For bight years Kansas and Missouri
had been at war, 'and they must , be either all Moire
- or all , free. Melte IHissouri, with her 66,000 square
miles, a free State, shoulder to, shoulder with Kan
sas, and they would be willing to take a contract to
sweep out slavery and rebellion from west of the
Mississippi 'river. He was willing to give money
enough to accomplish the object. The State of
Kansas would never agree to any compromise, ex
cept on condition of implicit obedience to the laws
- and if all the other States yielded Kansas would
fight the rebellion alone; and whoever speaks for
Kansas with other voice misrepreaents that State.
Mr. :WILSON.(Rep.), of Massachusetts, was will
ing to vote for emancipation in 1865, as a war mea
sure to . riot dowrkthe rebellion, and give all the
money necessary to accomplish the object. He be
lieved that the rebellion would be crushed and those
States return, and those empty seats be filled by
true men, but he did not want to delay emancipa
tion. • - - •
Mr. DOOLITTLE (Rep.), of •Wiscorisini said he
would prefer to meet the Missouri Legislature, 'and
act as they. propese. He would be willing to give
them twenty-fiver millions and abolish slavery - now,

pation, for the purpose of showing that itVias best
to leave the. precise .thode of emancipatiok to the

the ouestion of time was not 'so important suithat

Mr. _Henderson's motion, was rejected—yeas 15,

make the amonntto be given $14,000,000, if emancipa

was withdrawn.
Kr. WILSON (Rep.), of - liluelnuHetts, moved
an amendment as a substitute, providing for the
payment of $20,000 000 if emancipation was coin-.
pleted by the 4th of Ju1y,.1865 ; but no money. - shall

anY policy which he thoiight unconstitutional, of
appropriating money to theemanciwitiou slaves.

the last two.years. He had - seen all 'the sovereign.
rights of his own State 'disregarded:r•Cthers 'enter
.tamed the view that the prostratiOn - of the' slave
power in.the Border •States was the best means of
suppressing the rebellion and . restoring the Union:
,As a,Southern-born man, he would say they: were
mistaken in their calculations.' Under the present
policy he had no hope 'for the future., The only
way of safety, in his judgment, was to adhere to the
Constitution strictly as itis written, and' not by fol
lowing the new doctrineof t he , higher law issue.
The policy of violating - .the 'Consftiticin and, the
rights of 'citizens can lead only - to ruin and anarchy.

Violence. This kidnapping of citizens is a gross,
illegal violence, and may be properly -, repelled
by that legal force- which • every citizen may .

If we now raise a standing array not of American
citizens, but of negroes and slaves, they will; as an
army, be of little avail in. conquerin g the South,
'but may be the flt and ready instruments of tyranny .

Mr, COX (Dem.), of • Ohio, controverted the posi
t ions assumed by Mr. Mc Pherson
e and other gentle
men, and argued that the course of Washington and
other generals was against' employing helps slaves
•as a system of warfa,ke. There was no 'analogy' be
• tween - employing then :and now. Gov. Andrew,
who recently returned to. Massachusetts, carried
with him a carte blanche to raise negroes and send
them out of the'State. Mr. Cox, while oppoaing the
'bill, remarked that its object was to poroduce a die
4olution of the Union,-for gentlemen from the Bor.
/der States here have said that it would be imposts',
restore the Union if negroes are brought into
the field, like fiends of ,hell, in accordance with the
policy which began in hate and is followed up by a
.spirit of vengeance. A large portion'of our army is
-made up of Celtic blood, and he would tell. gentle
;men that they would not fight beside negroes. The
prejudice cannot be eradicated.
-• SEDOWICK (Rep.), of New York, favored
the bill for the reason that it is appropriate and ne- .
• CesSary to carry out the settled , policy of the Ga.'
vernment in the conduct of the war. Congresi
-already twice approved the principle on which the
bill proceede, and this bill is now derhaaed bemuse
:these tweracts :are loefficient for the purpose de
signed. This war was strictly for self-defence, to
dcfendthe Republic upon the principle on which it
was foUbded against.the, encroachments of an Ingo
.dent aristocracy of the most hateftil character. Im
piltient of restraint, intolerant, assuming a supe
-riority they never canpoasess, to'enable therri to ob
tain the mastery, tiler. have inflamed the ignorant
under their confrol, and invoked the arbitrament of
the'stiveord: The'corner-stone of their institutions is
: slavery, And so their. resources are from slavery.
- So, while no free, State is disloyal, no slave
:State is loyal. The - President's emancipation proola-
Ilation is the salvation - of the State. It ptands upon
"impregnable constitutional grounds; and . is an •
appropriate war 'power of the President. It had
• been said that the proclamation was designed to
.produce a seryile war. But was a servile war more
' horrible than civil war 7 The proclamation did no
' such thing. •It put arms into the hands, not of
&ayes, but of freemen, who fight at the same time
fel' the preservation of their Government and their
- own-liberty. To eMploy colored soldiers was not,
es Mr. Wadsworth asserted, a confession of failure.
Rome was saved by the cackling of a goose, and he ,
thought sometimes, on hearing these matters die-' '
cussed, that gentlemen were willing that that mode.
.of salvation should be, depended upon rather than .
theemployment of negroes. •
Mr. SEDGWICK proceeded to show that Euro- .
pean nations have derived ;efficient service from
..colored soldiers, and repeated facts to prove that .
.negroes, in. our land-and naval service, havegallante
• ly,and usefully discharged their duties. •
_•.141 . r. WRIGHT (D.), of Pennsylvania,- said • this.
Government and the Union.were the result of corn,
.promises. In concession and compromise it had its
birth. The very day,the" declaration went forth to
the colonies from Independence Hall, there was,
compromise and eoncesaion. -- From that.perioffdown
-to 1860 such a policy has prevailed. The Union
was again saved by, the compromise, of the great
and ruling.spiiits of the land—Clay, Webster, Cal
houn, and o thers, meeting together for that purpose.
Were gentlemen here leas wise than those men?
If ever -there was a• time in the history of the
country. when concession and compromise should
:be exhibited it was now: The enactment of a mea
sure repulsive to the sentiment, of a large mass of
' the - tennis might produce such 'd state of affairs that
•Yve, some morning, might, wake to find we have no
%Government in existence. [A voice—eYes,Ve will." ]
Mr. Wright hoped
,this.'from his heart. -He-was
.. ..Willing to make any honorable sacrifice. Now, let
the other side of the chamber show a corresponding
disPesition. If gentlemen,here would all agree upon

Mr. DIVE:N. (Rep.); of New York, did not think'
that this bill•was of such paramount inine.rtanceiti.
to justify theexcitement it has produced in this hall.
He -thought the President already possessed the
power to employ 'negro .soldiers. Provision was
already made for their employment in all conditions
in which their services can •be Made efficient. But
-he:preferred his own. proposition, offered in June
iastrmaking provision for their emigration, and 111

men to be confined to rebel localities, and not "to

Such persons r haVe the physical strength, power,
and manhood f and can be employed and -used. for
uceful purposes without infringing on the loyalty of
'any. Portion of,the country.' Hii would leave it to
officers to .say whether the negroea should be .eni-
Ido3red as soldlere or not. He was. against placing
the black on an equality with,the white man. He
gave his military experience . In behalf bf, his posi
tion. He was a friend of General McClellan, and,
had defended his. military conduct ; but it. was idle
to say that he . (Mr. Diven). and ,his regiment; and
the army, , wo uld-'not fight 'tinder other - leaders.'
There was not a man of them - but would fight under
any other general. When' the- mud =dries up, the
army will march on to, as he believed. ultimate Vic

Mr. CIIAMPNEYS, of Lancaster, defended the
course of the General Government in Malting this

Mr. KAINE, of Payette, comismned the policy of
the Administration. The courts were open, and the .

to know that they were illegal, inasmuch• as they
accomplished the deed* at an' hour when there was
no danger of interference* by .the. people. William.

for it.. " Gentlemen, Mr. Boileau; is not the only
man who' has -been arrested in the night lately, in

"'Mr. BROWN, of Warren, offered .to amend the
resolution by Inserting the name of „Tohn.Porriey,

He wished to inquire - whether it was positively
known that Boileau had• been taken by orcler of the
Government? Might he not have been kidnapped
by persons having no authority I
The SPEAKER ruled the amendment out of order.
Mr. HoPRINS, of Washington, offered a set of
resolutions, to be added to those under consideration,
but withdrew them, ;dating that he contemplated
bringing them before the House at another time. .
Iiffr.'LUDLOW; of Philadelphia, said: Mr. Spea
ker ram'one - of* those who feel in this matter. I
feel, because it comes home to one of my own
constituents; because I have already heard the
cries• of his .wife end. his -children, and because
citizen_ of. this Commonwealth - has been forcibly ear
lied, I know not where. I love,•sir, the Consti
tution of my Country and of `my State, and when I .
forget to love both, rtrust that every drop of blood
'in my veins will stagnate., and every pulsation cease.
'I love them both; I have sworn to support them,
,and so help me God I will I .
We have, sir, a written Constitution, under which
'this country has flourished for years, and which has :
borne to the homes of every one throughout this '
Commonwealth peace, plenty, and prosperitk.
,While we have this, with its provisions ample
enough for war. as well as peace, I confess the sad'
"truth that there are men who cannot appreciate its
virtues and its requirements, and who are in rebel-
lion; but, sir, I do not see that this Constitution
contains one article designed to , unjustly affect the
liberties of any freeman in the loyal North. In '
that Conetitution provision is made by which.
any one offending against it shall be duly tried.
Courts of justice are open to men who are charged i
with crime. The' accused must meet face to face;
'with the accuser. Men are not, in this day, in the .
United States, to be carried away to Restiles or prt
:sons at midnight, and left to languish without trial!
That is not in the Constitution.—The fabric of free
Government recognizes no such compulsory and
arbitrary power over men endowed with' intellect,'
and the rights guarantied them by the blood of their':
Revolutionary ancestors. ' t
Mr. LUDLOW continued further, and urged Vie
necessity, of making the proper distinction between
those who were amenable to military law and those
who were liable.to proceedings under the civil tri- .
bunals.
Gentlemen -have said, "shall we make the
Govern6r a police officer 1" or shall we instruct him•
to go and inquire about the matter 1 Ido not know.
the Governor as well as the gentleman ,does ; but I
think that he cannot refuse. to' .take'' from confine- 1 .
meat a eitizen,of this Commonwealth, and bring,
him within the borders of the Stile. I have too ,
high an apiireeiation'Of. his devotion to,the ' plain:
provisions of the Constitution of his country. In,
regard to the suspension of the habeas corpus, I have,.
only to say, the, if- you can but show me one la--
etanoewhere Officers, under the color of the law,,
have invaded the home'of a citizen, his own castle,'
and taken him thence without a hearing, it will be,.
a great argument in favor of the strict adherence to
the principles of the habeas corpus.
I hallow this Constitution of my country because
I - IOVe the remembrances that/ cluster around it. I•
love and revere the memory of-those who made it,
.and Pennsylvania has never been found wanting in
loyalty to , that .noble instrument. No sooner had
the first gun been fired at Fort Sumpter than the
Keystone State sent her legions to the battlefield,
and the red blood.of her eons coursed forth like.
water in defence of our,rights. You had but,to call
for men, and our sons were ready and willing' to be
come martyrs of liberty.
*' * * * This resolution, sir, is simplyfone
of inquiry, It calls upon the Governor to know the
reason of:this arrest. If the. gentlemen who have
spoken are true to the best feelings of their hearts
and to the prompting of their judgments, let them
vote' to sustain this inquiry. Let ue reason to
gether ; let us look at this matter. as it affects the,
liberties and rights of every citizen of this great
Commonwealth. Gentlemen .say that the words of
to-day, will-rise "
up in judgment against us. We
will bethere to'nieetthat judgment, ready and will
ing to sustain our act of to-day, with the best plead
ings for human justice. ,
. I want to take the citizen home from his dark dun
geon, and eve him his place by the family fireside.
If he has done wrong, let him be tried in the State
of his residence, and where the crime, if any, was
committed. Let us do this, not only in the name - of
Constitutional law, which we have sworn to support,
but in the - name of humanity and the rights of man.
