Mr. THURMAN uld the question was
whether the emanational amendments

Mr. SAWYER Bald that if the people

to remark that whatever be ass about to

SO4I / bairn 3 lay it with hemming
=Si
modesty, for the whole Democratic party
of the country, to say that I do not en
dome repudiation In any form, and that
I do not believe that the great and
honorable party of which I have the
honor to be an humble member, endorse
any such theory. While I Approve very
much of what my friend from Ohio has
said, and while I believe that there is
very great truth In much that be had
said. I think it my duty to say as much.
I have now said and entered my emphatic
disclaimer of the conclusions and theory
of my friend.
Mr. SLOCUM said: I am glad the
gentleman from Ohio makes no pretense
of representing any political party in the
remarks be has made. The Congre•-
elonel district I have the honor to repre
sent on this door pays into the Treasury
more taxes than two or three of the west
ern States combined, and I can assure
the gent eman that he represents the
sentiments of no party, and I may say
of no people in that district. For one I
here declare that no party, nor hope of
political advancement, will ever Induce
me to favor any . measure tending to
wards repudiation, either directly or in
directly, or any measure tending to prt
vent this government from discharging
every obligation incurred in the imp
pre-don of the rebellion, and In strict
accordance with the letter and spirit of
the law creating the obllAretion. In be.
half of the Democracy I retirement, I
hereby repudiate all reendiatoris.
Mr. RANDALL said: I am utterly op.
libudiatlon. The moment a
rm= me gives me the opportunity to
remonstrate against the enunciation of
any scheme of legislation which I believe
would place my country In a dieboneat
attitude before the world. Not only do
I believe that we abonld pay the debt,
but I believe, what Is of vastly more
importance, that the country has the
ability, the dlspnaltion, and the resonrces
to pay it. I agree with the gentleman
from Ohio that this debt was negotiated
at ruinous rates. That Is matter of Just
criticism against the party who then
controlled the Government and made
tile. negotiation : upon the bonds I.
stamped the faith and credit of the
country, and I say repudiation stands
in no other light except the light of dis
honesty.
Messrs. PORTER, COX, and WOOD--
WARD expressed similar sentiments-
During the dlactiasion the Republican
members gathered around the speakers.
evincing incense interest in the pro.

Mr. GARFIELD, at the close of the
