against slavery and the Kansas outrages. In
the midst of it DR.. Casper Morris rose in the

until he had concluded his discourse, when he
invited DIR. Morris to state wherein he done
anything wrong; but the DR.. did not attempt

different States be compelled respectively to meet
extremes with extremes And, if either extreme
carry its point what is that so far forth but dis
solution of the Union? If new State formed
from the territory of the United States be abso-
lutely excluded from admission therein that fact
OF itself constitutes the disruption of union be-
tween 1T and the other States. But the process
of dissolution could not stop there Would not

majority of votes either Northern or Southern,
OF necessity drive out the oppressed and aggriev-
ed minority, and place in presence of each other

1t is necessary to speak thus plainly of pro-
Jects, the offspring of that sectional agitation now
prevailing in some of the States, which are as
impracticable as they are unconstitutional and
which, If persevered in, must and will end caam-
itously. 1t is either disunion and civil war, or it
is mere angry, idle, aimless disturbance of public
peace and tranquility. Disunion for what? If
the passionate rage of fanaticism and partisan
spirit did not force the fact upon our attention it
would be difficult to believe, that any consdera-
BILE portion of the people of this enlightened
country could have so surrendered themselves to
fanatical devotion to the supposed interests of
the relatively few Africans in the United States.

Nor is it hostility against their fellow-citzens

of the people of all sections are equally involved
and imperilled in this question. And are patri-
otto men in any part of the Union prepared, on
such an issue, thus madly to invite all the conse
quences of the forfeiture of their constitutional
engagements? 1t is impossible. The storm o.

A majority having been given for no one
candidate there was therefore no election.
Mr.. A. X. Marshall, of Kentucky, followed.
Mr.. Colfax, of Indiana, thought that the
time of the House could be more profitably
spent than in the questioning and cross-question-
ing which had been carried on this morning
and though the gentleman from Kentucky had
INDUCED in some dark and vague insinuations
in regard TO the candidate for whom he (Mr.
CO. had been casting his vote, yet on this, as
on other occasions, the gentleman from Massa-
chusetts Mr.. Banks had shown that, like true
gold, the more he was rubbed, the brighter he
shone. These attacks upon that gentleman's
character would fall pointless at his feet, be-
cause he was encased in that panoply of recti-
tude before which arrows ever fell harmless.
Mr.. Washburn, of Maine, hoped that if there
were any charges that could be made against
the honorable gentleman from Massachusetts,
they would be made now. In his opinion,
nothing had been said or done here, which in
the slightest degree impeached the honor of the
gentleman from Massachusetts,.
Mr.. A. X. Marshall did not choose to make
a case now, nor would he hereafter, unless he
should be able to establish facts which he in
tended to bring forward. he could only say,
that if gentlemen would stand squarely up to
what they had told him, he would be able TO
prove, to the satisfaction of every member, all
that he had intimated.
Mr.. Kunkel, of Pennsylvania, replied to the
allegation that Mr.. Banks had given assurances
to some of his colleagues, and stated that
few days ago he and others of the delegation of
his State were told by gentleman who was
not voting for the honorable member from
Massachusetts, that that member stood pledged
to certain interests in the State of New York,
against those Of Pennsylvania, and that he was
pledged to constitute the Committee Of Ways
and Means with special reference to those in
terests. They thereupon went to Mr.. Banks,
