At the hour Of III the House was occupied in dehs,,
upon the Nebraska bill.
Messrs Harlan and Stuart, Of Ohio, and Mr. Goodrich
had made speeches against the bill They contended that
the repeal Of the Missouri Compromise Was violation Of
solemn compact.
Mr. Goodrich said IL VIC strike down the legal mower Of
that compromise would also annhae the moral force
OF the compromise Of 1885, This was most sacred prn.
cpe and IN TACT chief OF all others since the great
promse OF the constitution To destroy il, would wipe
out as with SPONGE all the compromises at the North
Laws may be made aud have the force Of laws but they
will not be respected a compromise
Mr. Staunton OF Tenn, Mr.. HEM Of Iowa and Mr.
Whe OF Pa, made brief speeches in favor Of the bill
