The rumor this morning is that the guillo-
tine Is streaming. From Is to 20 victims to
a breakfast, for the remainder of the session,
will be the order of the day. This ought to
have been the case sooner. The party has
|suiiercd--the country has suffered because it
was not done before. For tits undeniable,
that the very worst men of the Loco Foco
party were thrust into o1ice-and until they
are elected, the public money is not safe--the
public business will not be transacted, and
the people will not be contented. But the
system is in full operation now--and It'll my
opinion, the President will not arrest it until
he has substituted honest and capable men
for tho thousands ofcorrup, and incompetent
ones, who hold Office.

NJ r. -, ,o.
''o"'e i'P'''''e'' '""e 49, 1911
Mr.. Gushing said he had intended, II he
had had the opportunity, TO say III contradlc-
uoh OF me inpiiciiation OF silent acquies-
cehce, alleged ny MI. hayher, that he did
not agree with his colleague Mr. Adams) In
me sentiments aVowed ny Mr.. a. IN the
rouse on the 9th oil June.
In those remarks MT. a. expressed the o.
pinlon las reported) that, 1T the House should
establish rule not to receive amy petitions
'ouchlnS the subject OF slavery, "the People
OF the North would be ipsoj acto absolved from
all obligations to obey any call from Con-
gress" TO support The South.
Mr.. G.. was, and ALWAYS had been opnosed
TO the adoption of such rule, and had resist
edit In all constitutional ways. But he de-
MED that the adoption OF 1t by the House
could absolve the People Of either of the
States, North or South, from their constitu-
uonal obligations OF whatever description
The position that 1t had this effect was, it
seemed to him, the most untenable Of all the
forms oil nuiliilcalion. Whatever may b.
pretended IN any quarter as to the effect of

nthe remarks referred to, Mr.. A. also re-
iterated an opinion previously expressed by
MN, thai In certain supposed contingencies,
either OF serviie insnrraclion or OF war, Con-
gress would have 1.-The right TO Interfere with
the institutions ofthe South, and that, in the
event oil war, "the treaiy-makng power
would come to be equivalent TO universal e.
mancipation.
MT. y. on the contrary, did not think that
congress MAD any power TO touch slavery In
either oil me States. congress mightas well i,
IN ms opin.on' undertake 10 abolish the do
meStlc relation oil marriage IN OF the
states as that oil serviiude In another.
Nor could the Federal Government in his
opinion, 'inteTfere with the institutions of The
South" save only for their protection. That
Government might be constitutionally called
upon to defend and maintain the peace and
safety of one or more of the States, whether
endangered by Instruction or by war; in which
. case, it would be the duty of each and all OF
the States to exert themselves in behalf of any
part of the Union so endangered and MIR. G.
