This table, will be seen, takes account oil the a6-
seniees Of the several delegations OF the sirtytres
members present, and voting, forty were wings
and only sirtesn were democrats. Correcting for Mr.
Eiots vote. appears that of the fortysepen wings
forty-str voted against the bill and voted for it. or
the sixteen democrats thirteen voted for the bill and three
against it.
Look now at the absentees OF these delegations. The
States enumerated had in all niney-two members in the
House OF these seventy were wings and only ttoenty
tuo democrats OF these ninety members, tacsnty nine
failed to OF these ttoeny dodgers" itosnty
four were wings and fue democrats. Thus it APP
pears that from these nine States fifteen wings to
democrat voted against the bill, and five wings to one
democrat lodged the vote.
These facts speak plainly to the disposition OF the
wing party in these States to maintain the compromise
measures adopted by Congress
It should in this connexion be remembered that of the
wing party in all these States General Scott is the pre-
feed candidate for the presidency, the single condi
tion that he shall give pledge TO maintain the fugitive
law. Considering that these nine States furnish about
ticoMirds OF the whole wing party in Congress- il is by
no means wonderful that the southern wings are just
now in great doubt and ribulaton about taking without
pledges presidential nominee at the hands of such party
allies
