the militia What was Of the grand features Of the
billf was one too often derided too often laughed
at TWAS the great and glorious doctrine of State rights
State pride, State duty; and these doctrines
be forgotten in this connection That gentleman pro-
posed to organize the several corps Of militia in the Union
its own legion and s own coors Well, there
thing in this suggestion When called into active
vice, If there substantial hOnors to be gained
laurcls to be reaped the pride of each State would be
aroused to reap and gather it's share of the aHres
This would go to preserve the principle Of State rights
radical objection with himsclthat by building up this
large standing army there would be constant and ire
endous tendency to Capitalization How different would
it be with the independent corpseach operating for the
common cause-each mpelled and directed to common
purpose, and yet meeting separate places of rendezvous
respecting their individual rights and conendng each for
the glory of his own State. But how would II be with
a standing army? Why, all individuality would be
swallowed up, and all State lines obitented. Now,
he said, that single fact alone sufficient, in his
own mind, to lead him to prefer modification or
change of the bill, that it should be made one BY
which should be ENLISTED for the OF time
but as volunteers He could himself earthly OBJ
lection to such enlistment of volunteer force which
did obtain in a very much greater degree to the
listmcnt of standing army. II was believed that a
corps Of more active and more efficient could be
raised If the time of service should be limited the
continuance Of the war, for FIVE years. and that the
time would require to enlist them would be much
shorter than by the other plan II they believed the en-
stnen Of these men TO be absolutely necessary then
thew furnished his own mind with argument favor
Of an independent copsof an independent corps, for
the reason that Il might be sooner obtained well
for the consideration that 1t might be differed by Of
tieir own choiceby men from the States from which
The several cops came This course would also restrict
The executive patronage consideration which he had
already insisted on as important He wished, indeed,
