Mr. LEISENRING. Mr. SpEAsom, ; . .I, beg
leave toPr*bdings of a; als Meet
ing of the workingmen of Philadelphia, heldin
Independence Square, on Saturday evening, .104:
nary 26th. A Committee : of thirty three was
th..re appointed to visit; Wallington and Har
risburg, to lay before Congress . and the State
Legislature the action of that vast army of our
fellow citizens. The Committee visited the 'Na
tional Capital, and,on Thursday last arrived
'here in the inffillment of the duties of their
appointment. The. gentlemen composing that.
representation requested me to present to the
body over which yon.have the honor tipreside,
those proceedings, and in doing so at this time,
1 desire to thank my colleagues on this floor,
and the Senators who; favored _us with their
presence at the interview between the Commit
tee and the Pldladelphia delegation, for their
respectful and kind attention.
This Committee gave us, as you will remem
ber, an interesting account of their flattering
reception at the Capital of the nation—of the
kindness exhibited . towards them by the Presi
dent of the United Mat* by.SenatoraCaineron
and Bigler, of our own Pennsylvania' the ven
erable statesman of Kentucky, and numerous
members of Congress. Their visit there, sir,
was exceedingly pleasant and' agreeable, and it
was surrounded by circumstances which will
cause it to be remembered so long r as timealudl
continue with the participantsin the enjoyment
thereof. These gentlemen were treated in a
manner worthy of their mission. They - u , ere
not coldly met or indifferently greeted, nor
were they thrust aside carelessly; as many Com
mittees have been, in former times, there and
here, and why? Because their mission was one
of peace. Never have the same number of gen
tlemen left their firesides to transact ntore im
portant duties—never have a nobler band been
engaged in a work, which, if successful, will be
productive of greater results.
The Committee from Philadelphia who visit
ed us represents upwards of 60,000 men, whose
daily bread is earned by their labor. Upon
these men depend the existence of at least a
quarter of a million of persons, or about one
tenth of the entire population of this Com
monwealth. This representation is of a class
powerful and mighty ; hence the importance
of their proceedings. Every branch of labor
speaks to us to-day for protection—every fac
tory and workshop in the second city on the
continent, loudly proclaims for aonos, and the
cries of thousands of men, women and children,
who hunger for the common necessaries of life,
appeal to us to act promptly and efficiently in
the course which they have marked out, as the
best, in their judgment,for the settlement of our
Natianalonftmderstandings and difficulties. We
will find in perusing the report of that meeting,
that these 60,000 workmen—these men who
give activity to trade, commerce, mannfactures,
—to every department of life—desire that *Union
nd harmony shall continue among thefamilble.
of States composing this Confederacy. ..Im
pelled by patriotism and love of cpuntry, a few
men in the 'lndustrial Works, located in the
Tenth Representative !district of this State,
happily conceived the idea of securing an ex
pression from those upon whom, in, the Provi
dence of God; our very existence depends, upon
the affairs which so fearfully agitate us. That
little gathering gave vent to their patriotic
feelings, and on the evening referred to, stand
ing in. Independence Square, in six inches of
snow, amid a raging storm, acres of stalwart
men experiencing the sad effects of the depress
ed condition of the affairs of our whole coun
try, counselled together andyno nimously agreed
to sustafn the General Government in all just
'and legal measures to enforce the laws of our
land and nation.
Mr. Speaker, they not only did this ; they
earnestly urged upon us to unite our efforts "to
repeal all laws obnoxious to the citizens or any
portion of the Union, and conflicting with any
provisions of the Constitution or laws of the
General Government." They resolved to re
commend to our Senators and Representatives
in Congress:the adoption of the Crittenden Coln
promise, os—the passage of an Act allowing a
vote of the pixple to be taken thereon. They
deprecated "all warlike or hostile collision be
tween the military forces of the General Gov
ernment and the btates, believing that a peace
able arrangement is 13ossible when honorably
and justly sought for,' and resolved that "civil
war would be an end to all hopes of reconcilia
tion between the different portions of the coun
try." This is the whole story. The action was
wise and licatcruble. That Saturday night meet
ing forcibly reminds us of Valley Forge. As
the patriots of that dark period struggled amid
the snowy elements of Heaven for freedom and
happiness, union and harmony, so did the work
ingmen of Philadelphia, at that meeting, com
mence a struggle which, I trust, will soon ter
minate in the peaceable adjustment of the trou
bles which so very seriously thieaten the perpe
tuity of our blessed Union. The patriots In the
revolution listened and obeyed the commands of
the great and good Washiragtoa.
.I,et us to-day
imitate their example and listen to the appeals •
which have been made to us, and obey the
corninands of those in whom rests the right and-
power to dictate.
m i .. Speaker, these gentlemen came here as
c iti mus the message of peace. It was a
fitting time for them to come. We had re
quesited Gin% Curtin to appoint Commissioners'
to meet the representatives from Virginia, M ar y
land, Kentucky and other States, and these
woridtigtaelloPPortwie/Y appeaxydamongus and
endeised what we did. Their watchword b 3
action—peace 1 They desire no sword to settle
the dile - titles, but words of conciliation—no
acts of violence bat enactments c, uziace, equity
and brotherV kindrieni—no estrangement of
interests, but the immediate repeal of addend
/I 4 1 11 11 thed •
Their hope is peace. Don't disappoint them
by aiding to plunge different sections of the
country into war, as seems to be the determina
tion of some who insist upon arming the State,
regardless of the Commission just appointed or
the fearful consequences which may ensue.—
Our neglect to comply with the wishes and
earnest desires of so large a portion of our con
stituents.-may compel them to change their
usual avocations of industry and trade, and
hereafter enter the exciting arena of politics.
Therefore, stand manfully by the m in the ob
ject of their mission. Let our efforts to repeal
all unfriendly Legislation, asked for by nearly
80,000 voters, be united, and justice and victory
will span the brow of every national conserva
tive Pennsylvanian.
- Mr. MARSHALL. I would like to ask the
gentleman a. question.
I would like to know if the working men of
Philadelphia, saidnnything with regard to a
tariff,: or whether they intend to sacrifice that,
together with-their manhood ?
*Mr: LELSENRING. They did not, sir ; the
workingmen of-Philadelphia:are known to be
in favor of a tariif.
Mr. LELSENRINGF then"presented the' pro
ceedings, Which were read and ordered to be
published in the Record as follows :
To the House of Representatives of the State of Penn
silvania :
At a mass meeting of the Mechanics and
Workingmen of. Philadelphia, without distinc
tion of party, held in Independence Square on
Saturday evening, January 26th, 1861, the fol
lowing preamble and resolutions were adopted :
The workingnien, 'citizens of Philadelphia,
withdut distinction of, party, deeply impressed
by the solemnity and peril of the present state
of public affairs, and with a desire to preserve
every, right guaranteed or reserved under the
Constitution of the-United States, as well as to
perpetuate the religious, social and political
blessings of the Union,in a general , mass meet
ing assembled, deem it to be their.duty to an
nounce to their :felloW citizens of the nation
their' deliberate judgment, their hopes, their
fears their intentions in the present crisis, and
to give expressiOn to the feelings of. safety and
protaction which the Unite has hitherto secured
to us, and, as we believe, that Union alone can
preserve and insure to us in future.
We meet, as workingmen and citizens of a
great and glorious nation to proclaim that the
Union of these States is consecrated in our af
fections the inestimable benefits secured to
us by the history and traditions of the past, and
by patriotic recollections . that can never fade
away. Standing near the sacred edifice in which
the Union was consummated, and animated by
the consciousness that nowhere in the vast do
main which thee:Union . protects has it been more,
resolutely sustained, than in Pennsylvania, we
therefore look at any attempt to dissolve the
Union with unaffected sorrow and alarm.
In the event of a •disimion of the States, no
earthly power could restore us to the same dig
nified position, social and political, that we now
occupy. Therefore, we counsel and will sup
port' concert of action on the part of all work
ingmen of every city, county and State in our
land, tO.Eihi maktaining.the governixtentas it
now exists under' the Coni3titution, and to adopt
all necessary and, proper amendments to the
Constitution that:may be required for the com
plete protection - of the rights of every citizen,
North or South, East or West.
We, moreover, earnestly urge our Senators and
l3.epresentatives in the Legislature of Pennsyl
vania, to unite their, efforts to repeal all laws
obnoxious to the citizens of any portion of the
Union and conflicting with any provisions of
the Constitution or laws of the General Gov
ernment.
Resolved, That we respectfully and earnestly
recommend to our Senators and Representatives
in Congress assembled, to adopt the resolutions
proposed by Senator Crittenden .of Kentucky,
or to pass an Act allowing a vote of the people
to be taken thereon. '
Resolved, That if the present Congress refuse
f adopt any measure that will reconcile the ex
isting differences between the sections of our
country, that the menibers be requested to re
sign their seats in order that the. people may
have an opportunity to adjust the difficulty and
elect others in their places.
Resolved; That we deprecate all warlike or hos
tile collision between the military forces of the
General Government and the States,• believing
that a peaceable arrangement is possible when
honorably and justly sought for. Civil war
would be the end of all hopes of reconciliation
between different portions of the country.
Resolved, That if after all fair and honorable
means have been exhausted without effecting
the desired object so ardently cherished by all
Union loving citizens we, as workingmen will
sustain the Federal Government in all just and
legal measures to enforce the laws of our land
and nation.
Resolved, That this meeting authorize the
Committee of Arrangements to aPpoint two
Delegates from each Congressional district of
this city, to meet in Convention in. Philadel
phia, on the 22d of February, 1881, as recom
mended by the mechanics and workingnien of
Louisville, Kentucky.
Resolved, That.the Chairman of the Commit
tee of Arrangements appoint a Committee of
thirty-three to convey copies of the foregoing
resolutions to our Senators and Representatives
in Congress, and to our Senators and Repre
sentatives in the Legislature of Pennsylvania.
