Non. Intervention.

The Hon j. B. Weller, in his speech in favor Of non.
Intervention, delivered in the Senate the 18th instant,
uttered the following patriotic sentiments:
"Mr. President, ought observe the golden rule
Whatsoever ye would that should do you, do
ye thcmj for this is the Law and the prophets
Any proposition which denies portion the con-
fedeacy equal participation with another In
mon rights Is dishonorabIe. Establish settled policy
the doctrine ot which contend, Of non-iniUtnon by
the federal government and II is matter OF little import
ance whether the North the South has majority in
Congress Why 1t that portion OF the Union should
be denied equal participation in the settlement Of the
Territories Why is Il that you cannot leave this question
where all other que left 10 the free and voun-
tsry decision Of the people who emsraie 70 that
gion1 liza. the South failed TO d;chage her duty
In the hour Of trial and Of DANGER they stood by

ing shoulder shoulder with northern upon the field
OF battle have them stricken down by the balls Of
the enemy lying side by side their blood ntemnging
and noistening the earth which they fell They raised
themselves up the lamp Of life about TO be extn
gushed and their comrades rushing and they

aud expired with smile Of Joy upon their psa smile Of
Joy because that flag around which ali the afeo
their hearts had been gathered, proudly waved In
triumph And why is IL that those men who have aided
In the acquisition OF the Territory, those who have
contributed their money and their blood shall be refused
an equal participation the bene fits resulting from it1
"Mr President know what may be the feelings Of
others but only desire that that portion Of the Union
from whence come SHOULD be allowed participate in
the common benefits OF this government We ask
elusive privileges and unwilling discriminate
between the different sections Of the Union. We will
