sins, and thu loss of ; property is_tbe • mildest

us:the most desolating war that has ever been

such a record of crime and guilt as, will demand

Mr. Sp. aker, the mind staggers .neder the
contemplation of such a proposition.. Bear in
mind that the words are "damages tO poisons,

Mr. Speaker,p I think that some eesigniug

:Senator from Aclanis, - iu preparing this bill
He, In his advopacy of it, has, overlooked the •
grand, loss; and "confined 'himself to dead

Speaker,-I would , desire to debate - this
question-as though the'frarid-lik- 'the , bill had
not been disoovered, as though ft was Merely
property that was to be 'paid for. Last year,
the Senator from Adams asked for the re-im
britsement of a few thousand dollars which
•had been destroyed for his 'constituents hythe
'rebel raid of 1862. Almost, ilnot entirely
alone, I protested against the passage of the
bill. I foresaw its evil consequences. I regarded
It as the entering-"wedge, which, if allowed to
be driven home, would'rend asunder the best
government that-Gal-has ever vouchsafed to
-man. This-year the Banat - Or asks for untold
millions, and the fatal Treeedent of last year
