Mr. HuNTER. DID an eud0rse the C0mprO.

|
Mr.. POLK. They were not against it.
] MIR. cABELL resumed. He came TO Congress
believing as truth what he had heard. he Intended
/ 20 cut himself of from his party; But the Whigs
had put themselves upon his PLATFORM, had placed
themselves where the Union party OF the South
could stand, by declaring for the Compromise as a
| hnalty.
/ Mr. MEADE said that the majority of the Wing
! caucus were southern men, and that only twelve
or fourteen northern Wings.
! MIR. CABELL was present, and had no hesitation
| in saying that but FIVE gentlemen LETT tho meeting
! after the passage of the resolution
! MIR MEADE Do you believe that the express
| sion OF sentiment reflects the will OF the Wing
! party Of the North!
Mr. CABELI II reflects the sentiments of
| aority of the Wing representatives. cannot
say whether il reflects the Will oil the people
/ Since he had been conversing with members oil me
! Wing and Democratic parties, he mad learned thhl
! Western New York had returned but one member
| who voted for the Compromise measures
/ Mr.. DEAN said that the State Democratic Con.
vention OF New York last year, aud the Demo
cratic Conyention this year, and the Democratic
! Conventional ia the Congressional district which no
bad the honor to represent endorsed IN inii the
! Compromise measures and resolved to abide by
| them He, in caucus, had voted with the major
/ ity to lay the resolution upon the table.
! Mr.. CABELL was willing to say that the gen
! tleman was another; but denied that the Demo
! crDcy of New York had endorsed The Compromise
The gentleman from Virginia (Mr. MRADE)
| charged that the Wing party Of the South acted
! with the aboliGonisis; but where did the gen
| tieman hlInselIF
Gus to lay aside sectional considerations for the
sake Of electing their candidates; and acting with
| the gentleman from Connecticut, the gentleman
from Massachusetts,, and OTHERS OF similar views
hostile TO Che South If the resolution had been
adopted, these gentlemen would not have acted
! with the Democrats
Mr.. MEADE did not charge the Whiga with
| acting with Freesoilers The Democrats could not
exclude anybody Would the gentleman say that
there no Freesoilers in his caucus
MIR CABELL IL is true that in the Wing, as in
the Democratic CAUCUS there were persons oil this
description but did not choose 10 compromise
ourselves for their votes. These men left the eau
Gus no longer Wings Let them go and JOIN the
Democrats, if they please, and act as the gentle
| men from Ohio acts in the Democratic party.
| Whatever may be the position OF the Wing party,
my determination is to stand by the Constitution
of the country. II the Wings come with me,
will act with them if the Democrats come with
me- will act with them. The Wings, who made
no nomination, will sustain those who sustain the
| Compromise.
Mr.. GIDDINGs rose to request his friends to
| post one the question which had been precptated
upon them, and appealed to them to go on and or
ganize the House, and discuss the important mat
| tiers at the proper time He took the opportunity
to congratulate the honorable Secretary OF State
and the President of the United States on the adop-
ton of these peace measures, and on their quiet
ing of all agitation. While he was up he would
| say to gentlemen who anxious for the combat,
| we will afford them abundant means for gratihca-
ton. He did not speak Wing or Democrat;
but free Democrat Laughter He only in
| tended to say that there will soon be time when
gentlemen can legitimately express their opinions
on the rights of the North and the South. We owe
il to constituents to proceed to organization,
and to the transaction of the business for which we
have assembled,
There were cries of "Call the roll, "Call the
! roll.'
