REMARKS BY MR LAMAR.
Mr T.mr Mr. President, when
these resolutions are printed and
ready for action, I feball have some
thing to eay on their adoption. Be
fore the question pases off now, 1
wish to make one or two remarks up
on a single point submitted by tbe
Senator from Maine. Sir, it is not a
surprising thing, nor is it an uaoat
oral one. that tbe distinguished Sen
.tor should manifest a deep interest
in the affairs cf the Southern Slates
It is reabonable, it is eminently fit
tin aud nroner. that one w ho occa
pies bo conspicuous a position at the
rrPBPnt tiiiie. ana wno uerunDs win
occupy a still more distinguished po
sition in the future, should scrutinize
with anxious solicitude tbe progress
oi that people to reconstruction and
to their readjustment to the healthy
and normal condition ot ou? national
life. But I must confess to some re
tret tbat a statesman so distinguish
ed, in looking upon this recently dis
located Member ot tbis great Amen
can Empire, instead of regarding
anxiously for those great interests
tbat will affect this great country
through a lonir track of coming
vears. should have concentrated bis
whole gaze upon its simple attitude
of party relationship; tbat nothing
should have struck the gentleman
except tbat particular partisan lea
ture w Licb tfiecta tbe ascendency of
tbis political party or other orgauiza
tions that are unknown to tbe Con
6titution and outside cf the laws of
this land. But. sir, the gentleman's
remarks were directed exclusively to
thuse narlicB. aod with no intent
whatever to utter bitter retort, I can
not but ieel regret that one of such
resolute purpose, of such tenacicu
and such daring ambition, and such
trreat abilities, should hare narrowed
his mind as "to give to party what
was meant for mankind
BIOHT8 or FREEDOM FCLLY ENJOYED,
It is remarkable that there were
some omissions of a very significant
character from tbe gentleman argu
ment. and it was directed simply to
the suppression of the expression cf
the votes of a particular clacs or vo
ters in tbe South. Mr. ".'resident,
I understand tbe coctemporaneoo
debate of tbat dav, tbe object of tb
amendment to which be refers, cloth
iog the negro population with the
riebt of suffrage, was to give tbem
protection for their freedom and for
tbe civil rigbu w bich tbe Fourteenth
amendment accorded to ttem. Is'ow,
6ir, through the protracted remarks
of the gentleman to-day, be could not
utter one word be could not becuse
it would not have been truth tbat
there was a siDgle right cf freedom
or of citizenship belonging to the
black race of tbe South that was not
as secure and as well eDjoyed as that
o( tbe procdest and freest wbite man
in tbe land. There is another re
markable fact, that ia this indictment
of tbe South there is no pretense that
there is a single menace in her pres
ent attitude to any of the great inter
ests of this country, not an imputa
tion of that character. For "tolid,"
as tbe phrase goes, as tbe South oiaj
be, sbe stands in line with needy a
majority of tbe American people upon
every question tbat is now discussed
la ibis country, or argued here in her
council chamber. But, sir, to come
to tbe direct point, the Senator asserts
tbat in consequence of tbe suppres
sion of tbe negro rote at the South,
by means which are illegitimate, the
South his a disproportionate power
in tbia Government. Sir, before tbis
discuesioi is over, I will show that
no negro rote has been suppressed in
the South. I will demonstrate that
(.his political phenomenon, which is
the subject of so much discussion and
misrepresentation, is a phenomenon
that would occur in any iree society,
and tbat it has been brought about
by agencies which intelligence, and
virtue, and sagacity, and other evi
dences of civilization, always bring
upon classes tbat are igooraat and
debased. - ' i - ' ' -
THE REPRESENTATION QUESTION.
But, sir, assuming all the gentle
man says to be true, tbat there are in
the House of Representatives one
hundred and six Representatives,
elected of one party complexion, and
elected or means not wbat be con
sidered legitimate, let us sea where
we stand in tbis position.
Now, sir, what interest of tbe
North, what interest of this country,
is endangered by it? With a unUed
rote of tb South she stands a pow
erless section ia tbis Government.
Sbe is an important minority, unable
to protect single Southern right or
defend a single Southern interest
Bat, says tb gentleman, under the
operations of these amendments the
Sooth has representation not ia
proportion to the constituency which
is represented, and the States of
South Carolina and Mississippi and
Alabama bave twice as much power,
or more than tbat, as twice tbe nam-
ber in some is' orth western States
which be mentioned.
Jir. President, every member of
tbat population is entitled to vote

EDMUNDS SEES THE fOlXT.
Mr. Edmunds Mr. rreidsnt, the
poini, of the Senator frooi Mississ'pp
appears to be that if tbe Senator from
New England prop:;C8 to. inquire
whether tne Constitution bas ueen
violated in depriving aoy part of tbe
people of the States of their right to
nt for members oi i;onjre!. ne
therebr incurs tbe danger of over
setting tbe Constitution itself, which
v that the States in this body
shall be equal, and merriore i UDuer
stand bim to pot it out as a warning
that the people of Ae r.uKiaoo,
through their Senators and Kepre
sentatives. have no right to etaud up
f.ir the Constitution as it ia in favor
of equal represeutation by tbe poople
of tbe States in tbe otber iiouse, un
less tbey run tbe n-k oi beiag expjs
cA ta the dantrcr of baviut; tfceir &en-
That. then, is the oaei-tioa we are
ioviied to consider, aud tbt pjril that
a-o Tr,naer arrclves to. if wo uuKr
take to icquire uhether tbe Constitu
tion has been violated. j
In other words, the representation
cf the Democratic party of the Sonth
say to an inquiry into tbe viola'ion
of the Constitution, "If you dare
make such inquiry, yoa run tbe rUk
of overturning H e representation ot
States and reducing yourselves to a
state of servitude." That is tbe prop
osition. Mr. Lamar I hope tbe Senator
will allow me to explain'.
Mr. Edmunds Certainly.
Mr. Lamar. Or rather to protest
against the interpretation he his put
upon my remarks. I made no such
suggestions. It was simply in reply
to the theory the Senator irotn Miioe
bad Uroacned, that this investigation
was justified in order that the evil
which tbey disclosed of one hundred
thousand white mea ia tbe South
having a political power and vote ia
tbis Government equal to tbreo hun
dred thousand eomewbero ilc, that
I said tbe tendency cf such an iu
quiry, and any theory jasiiGed by
such" a resolution, would lead to fur
ther investigation acd would con
demn the policy and syatcnas ac l gen
ias of the government upon'wbicb
our Americas fabric rests.
Mr. Edmunds I am very glad to
know, Mr. President, that the Sena
tor did not mean what bis remarks
appeared to indicate, aud to bas been
misunderstood.
Mr. Lamar (iatcrrup'.hg) I
cot mean whtt the geutlcman has at
tempted to force try remarks into,
but which he will never succeed ia
doing. , . , , . ,
lamar's mistake. .
Mr. Edmunds The Senator U
mistaken in that. I have not attempt
ed to force his remarks into anything.
The record will show exactly what
be has said, and I think' it will ap
pear that I have not misstated the
substance of wbat be has said. But
tbe Senator bas greatly mistaken,
with bis present explanation, tbe
point of the Senator: froml Maioei
The Senator from Maine did not
complain of the inequality of person
ages in one part of the Union or an
other. Wbat he complained of was,
(supposing what be believes to be
true turns out to be eo when you
bave an investigation,) tbat a small
number of persons in tbe Suutb, by
gross and outrageous violation of tbe
Constitution, have taken to tbem-
j selves by that, species of usurpation
of tbe power of a large number ex
ercised under the Constitution ia a
lawful way in tbe Northwest. Is tbe
Senator dissatisfied if that turns out
to be true, or would be like to rectify;
it 1 The Senator, of course, would
like to rectify it. I must a?eume be
would. Wbat, tben, is the use of
saying yoa are going to overturn tte
Government if we undertake to Gad
out whether the Constitution has
been grossly violated by tbe denial
of equal rights ia reepect ot elections
to tbe popular brauch of tbe Congress
of tbe United Slates, and where is
tbe necessity ia each a case cf hold
ing out tbe terror and kindling lbs
conflagration that the Senator refer
red to io respect to Senatorial repre
sentation, upon an ioqairy . of tbat
kind. ...
Tbe people of New England, as
far as I may speak for tbem, believe
in justice and in equtl tights under
j tbe Constitution, aad according to it
just as tbeir fathers and tbeir cucces-
sors bave made it, that iB, tbat in the
States (and f am surprised to bear a
Southern Senator assail tbe very
foundation of State rights) there is
and there must be political equality;
tbat ia respect of the peoplo repre-;
tented ia either cr tbe wancnea oi;
Congress there shall b fair equality,
of fair Bombers, fairly and freely ex
ercising their rights, and not subjects
of tyranny and corruption ana iraua
anywhere. I fail to see then, Mr.
President, the great danger that JTew
England runs f n undertaking to make
an inquiry of tbis kind, if tbe Senate
agree to it.
. Bat I did uot rise to enter into
tbis diFCUBsion at all, but only, now
tbat we have had a fair expression
on both sides, to aek for tbe regular
order.'
Mr Lamar Still, Mr. President, I
cannot sccept tbe position which the
Senaur from Vermont assigns roe.
lie ss? 4 that be is surprised to find a
Southtri Senator assailing the prin
ciplfS el State rights. lie will never
bod me ia tLst po-ition. &ir, i nave
been a defender of tbat doctrine, but
inasmuch as surprises are sprung the
bole country will be somewhat as
touifrbed to find tbe doctrine of State
rights advocated by tbe distinguished
Senator from ertaont.
Mr Edmund I think not. I have
always done it.
AS IiLA1.SE UNDERSTANDS IT.
Mr. B'.aine Mr. President, I wish
to give notice that at tbe very earliest
( ppsirt unity tbat the business of the
Senate will permit, I shall ask a vote
on thffse rewnlutioTis, and I desire
merely to ay tbat in the luile collo
quy between the Senator from Mi-R-is-ippi
aud the Senator from Yer
mont, 1 understand tbis to be aooui
tbe midoum : Tbat if I moved an
inquiry into tbe uncoustitutional re
presentation of Mississippi in tbe
other House, he will move to inquire
into the constituuinal representation
oi Maine ia this branch. (Laughter )
Mr. Laaiar Tbat will do pretty
well for wit, tnd pretty well for tbe
nator's peculiar species of pcrvcr-
Mua, out it wi.i noi uo ior iruio
t or. sir. I protested that I not only
A-culd uot m ve such an inquiry, but
would oppose and fight any such
purpose. So, sir : the doctrine that
I stated was tust it tbere be ngbt oi
uffrsce invaded anywhere, or aoy
constitutional rights infringed upon.
it shall ba maintained and enforced it
cfssery by all tbe power of tte
0 jvernment.
Mr. EdinuadJ Toea we are all at
cne.
Mr. Lamar Exactly eo; but not
opoa tbe ground mat we are io era-
baik in a crusade by wbicb states
shull bo deprived of any of tbeir
powers, because, under tbe operations
of tbe Constitution, enber original
provisions or amendments, tbere may
be an undue balance oi power in one
State over anovber in this Govern
meet, end I repeat the warning tbat
those gentlemen, ia throwing their
net into this troubled sea, may briDg
out the vae, like that which the fish
erman ia tbe Arabian Nigbts once
brought f inb, from which, when the
seal is brcken, a denuo mav arise

who deliver him from bis restraint
and tara around and dtstroy bis de
liverer.
Mr. EJuiuniis 1 do not know but
be is here no a. Now let us bave tbe
regular order.
Mr. Lamar I suppose that very
winy remark was iuieuded for pri
vate e&rs. and as I did not hear it, I
leave it without retort.
Tbe resolution acd amendment
were then laid at-ide, and Mr. Biaine
gave nulioe tbat he will ci.ll it up

In April the religious world will

The work of tbe first week of Con

it will be taken, so far as it goes as a

tbe session. Ia tbe Senate tbe first
matters considered were tbe transfer
of tbe Indian Bureau to tbe War De

Yellow fever, the retirement of the
trade dollar and tbe Southern elector

Tbe House bas already paused two

Next year will be J.ue eighteenth
century of tbe great erupt'on of Ves
uvius, which reoiiUed lu tbe total
destruction of Herculaneum aod
Pompeii, and a proposal baa already
been made ia Italy to celebrate tbe
event ia some suitable manner. T e
people,' however, seem to bave beea
too busy with their demonstrations tu
honor of Itaha Irredenta to have
given, as yet, aoy practical shape to
tbe idea, but it now appears that it
will be carried ont ia a manner total
ly unexpected acd rather prematnre,
but probably mure appropriate than
even tbe ingenuity ot Jtle loviog
Italians could suggest.
Whatever form the unique com
memoration might take, it could dard-
ly b9 more grandly accompanied
tban by tbe smoke, and thunder, and
cascades of liquid fire produced by
i.be volcano itself, which is already
ia a Lat appear to be tbe preliminary
stages of mother great eruption.
For two or three years tbe mountain
bas given signs of returning anima
tion, and the prognostications of an
extensive outburst bave taken thous
ands of expectant visitors, doomed,
however, to disappointment, from all
parts of the continent to witness tbe
awful if splendid spectacle.
This year tbe disappointment of
tourists will not be so great. Cas
cades of lavs, thrown op to a height
of three hundred feet, with tbeir ac
companying showers of ashes, and
tbe mighty column of smoke curling
high into tbe air and -carried gently
ewayina long trailing mass far;
across the deep blue sky, with patch
es bere and tbere of lighter-colored
vapors expanding ia tbe air and
mingling with the clouds these are
features io the fair scenery of Naples
and CaBtellamere which are reserved
only for tbe favored few among the
visitors to tbe south.
Even if the eruption does not at
tain more mjeeii. uri portions, and if
its foil force is t "be reserved fdr
next year, the sight of Vesuvius ia
its present state is worth a long jour
ney to see ; but should the gathering
volcanic f rces, of the activity of
which Central Europe was but re
cently a witness ia tbe series of earth
quakes extendiog from Belgium to

How stull a person wbo is sensi
tive to cold, w bo takes cold whenev
er a door is opened or a windo
ri - d how shall such a person
ac
quire tbat hardihood wbicb enables
biru to endure exposure and avoid
taking cold 1 In the first place, he
should spend a considerable portion of
each day out oi duora. He should d
tbis at ail seasons of tbe year and in
all kinds of weather. Secondly, he
should watch with the greatest care
ibe temperature cf the room in which
he speuds the remainder of bis time
both the living room aud the dor
mitory. Thirdly, be should each
day batho bis chest and neck, and, if
be can bear it, his wbole body in
eld water, and follow this with a
vigoroos rubbing witb a coarse towel.
bat is called the splash bath is
perhaps better tban any otber fr
tbis purpose. It consists simply is
dashing water against the body with
the band. This causes a slight shock
to tbe skin, which briags the blood
to the surface, while it causes an in
voluntary, deep inspiration of air,
wbicb expands the lungs and in
creases tbe force of tbe circulation.
1 bis can ail be accomulifcbed in a
few miuutes, and should be followed
by a little brisk exercise ia a cold
room or m tbe cpen air. Of course
a person unaccustomed to this should
0". commence in cold weather; but
beginning in tbe summer, be will
Gad, us tbe winter approaches, that
bis abil.iy io endure tbe bath will in
crease with the falling of the ther
mometer, acd tbat his susceptibility
to changes of temperature will be
greatly diiuiuuhed.
Brinlodrd II I m f Home.
An affecting illustration of the nat
ural lougiug for wbat is dearest to us
tnat comes to tbe heart ia the hour
of dea' h, ia thus related:
Some years ago a ntiive Green
lander came to tbe United S'.ates. It
was too hot for bim here, so be made
up bfs mind to return home, and took
passage on a sh'p tbat was going
tbat way. He was taken sick, and
as be was dviog be turned to
those wbo stood around bim aod
id:
"Go ou deck and see if vou can see
ice "
Wbea tbat man was a baby the
first thing be saw after his mother
was ice.
His houHe was made of ice; he
was cradled in ice ; the water tba
he drank was melted ice. If he ever
rat at a tabb n was a tabt of ictt
TbetnrTuotaius Were of ice ; tbe fluids
wre of ice ; and wbea be became
man be bad a sledge and twelve dog
that ran fifty miles a day over the
ice.
And many a day be stooped over
a bole in tbe ice twenty-four hours.
aod put bis spear iota tbe bead of
any seal tbat might come tbere. He
bad always been accustomed to see
ice, and be knew tbat if aoy of bis
compjiiions on board could see ica,
it would be confidence that he was
near home.
Tbe thought of ice was the very
last thought in his mind.

In the Rev. Mr. Hepworth's bright
yachtiog book, Starboard and Fort,
are several funny yarns, one of wbicb
is related by an old salt named Fow
ler, whose power of drawing tbe long
bow may be estimated by the torce
of his language. He uncoils as fol
lows:
As I wasa-sayio', we was coddin'
ff Nantucket; the wind blew heavy
from the nor'east. Tbere was a
mighty sea runnin'. and tbe cappeo,
seein tbe rest o' tbe fleet bad come
to anchor, said to me, 'Fowler,' said
he, 'hadn't we better let go our mud-
hook V.
1 cast mv eves to the oorrard, and
see it was goin to blow pretty stiff
all night, so I said :
'I oa can do as yoa like. Cap ; but
if she was my craft, I know wbat I'd
o, mighty quick.'
What's that r scz he, kinder
anxioas; tori noticed be always
come to me wbea it was a-blowin'
bard.
'Why,' sez I, 'tbem clouds they
look ugly, and it's goin' to be a nasty
ni.,f,t mnA if wo nn irat n. fair linlrl i f
. B ' e, . I

bo tbe aucbor was let go, and we
bobbed about a good deal wor.se
tban we did t'otber nigbt. Tbat was

Talk of mountains tbey warn't

sir, once tbe scnooner pintea nor
bowspirt rigiit for tbe North Siar,
nd you may know tbat she s got
to stand up pretty well on ead to do
bat.
1 was just going out on the bow
sprit to furl the jib, wbeu a Di of
wind took tbe sail, and at tbe sauiu
miou.e a heavy wave struck u, and
threw me off mv feet. I hung oa to
be clew of tbe jib, expecting to be
landed against tbe larboard rail, you

it blew the jib outboard, and instead
of dropping on the deck, I fell flat on
my back io tho water. Ibe tide was
running like a race-borse, and when
I got about midship, as I reckoned,
a roller lifted me about tweuiy ftet
above tbe deck, and I hollered."
"You hollered?" said Deriric
"Well, I guess I did, and tte crew
beard me, too, aud tbe captain be
beard me. I struck our, hoping to
get bold of the rail, but 'uvuru I nog
nse. I give myself up for lost. .No
more coddiu' for me, 1 said to nme'f.
Just tben I beard tbe capiaiu eay.
fm throwta' ye a ln, lowler,'
aad with that I beard a splash cI jbC
to me. It was so dark I couldn't see
nothing, but I beard the rope strike
tho water. I bad tbe preuce of
mind to thick tbat tbe ropo would
siuk, so I fumbled round about a toot
uuder water aud caught bold of some
thing. It was the wbippia' cf the
line.
"Well, I hung oa with aa awful
grip, and could feel thai they were
bauliu' awar at t otber end. 1 nev
er come so near minim1 in my liie,
but 'twarn't no time to fjiut jat
then. Tbe sailors were hauling me
on board, when one of them looked
over tbe side and see tbat I bad only
the wbippia' io my band "
' I thought you said it wa s dark
you couldn't see," broke in HndjI jb
"Well, I was almost aboard then,
aad. besides, it lit up about two o'
clock." "Two o'clock," cried Stigaad ;
"why, you fell off ibe bjws at ouu.
Were yoa in the water ia Miirch for
ao hour, and did it lake you si.vy
tniuuW, with a mrong tid tJ go
from ibe ctem to the s eru ?''
"W'al, it might n t bave been d
artly two, but it wis nigb on to it;
aod, oesides that, I was slruggliug
all tbe time, aad tbe time might have
seemed a liitle longer than it really
jas ; and more tbno tbat, 1 bad to
guess at the time, cos I coulda't. let
go that rope acd get uiv watch out
and seejusitbe minute I was drown
ed," said Fowler, not in the least dis
concerted.
VVelJ. wbeu 1 was most up, oco
of tbe sailors said, 'Captaio, badu't
we better get the guff aud mike fast
to bimf At that 1 inuit say I felt
mad. It was bad enough to full
overboard, but to be gaffed as though
I was a dog-fish was more tbau 1
could 6taud, so I believe I fainted
away. At aoy rate, the next thing
I knew I was in the cabia stretched
out ou one of tbe trans ins.
"The captain stood over me, shak
ing me, and sayiDg, 'Fowler, let go
that rope.' I looked down to my
band, and foand that I had hold of
about three inches of it, with such a
grip that I couldn't let go. So I
took hold of the rope with my right
band, and kinder coaxed it away
from tbe fingers of tbe other band.
"I tell jou, tbat was b grip,

This remark was addressed to me,
and I answered yes, without farther
