WAsHIEoros, Dec. IL.
S5USE.-Mr. LarrAbss sent TO the Clerks
table a copy OF the Milwaukee Res DeaoTai,
from which the latter read the proceedings Of =
meeting purporting to be held by German adop-
tep citiEens, 10 which sympathy is expressed
for John Brown. holding him a. . resolute
man. ft to be held up by the friends and cham
pous OF freedom tor Tho imitation OF mankind.
AlsO saying that adopted citizens are hostile to
tyranny Of every kind. Mr.. Lsrabss remark.
ed that Il any Of his colleagues did not reoos-
niZs that paper as Republican, let them say 70.
At ha REQUEST an editorisl in the same paper
With the proceedings of the meeting was read.
lie was satisfied that the honorable Senator
frem Wisconsin, Mr.. eoolttle, was mistaken
when be said there was no newspaper in that
State which supported and sustained John
Browns invasion Of Virginia. He thought,
however, that at the time the fact 10 which he
bad Just been referred had not been brought To
hr. Doolittes notice. .......
Mr.. Larrabee needed not to be informed as
he had been by the leading German citizens o.
Wisconsin that such were not their opinions
lie bad been in the midst Of them for fourteen
years, and could say that a more intelligent
loyal and patriotic class were not living on the
soil Of the United States. They were hsstiie
10 anatcism and sentiments of disunion, and
the war on the South. He held it to be bis
duty to hurl back the accusations against the
part Of Wisconsin he had the homer to repre-
sent. lie was surprised to bear gentlemen
charge the present Administration with corrup'
ton and extravaganza. lie thought the Pres
idcnt was entitled TO all Praise. No man 'ho'd
visit his mere personal sights on his party, be.
cause he might have been omitted in the paltry
distribution OF Federal Offices ...
We oil agree that the Republican party or.
ganization at the North is purely sectiona
party and that the inevitable result Of the sue
cess Of any sectional party in the country must
be rupture Of the Union. This was the very
state of things which Washington warned Vi
against in his farewell address-a great party
built on q geographical lins. He thought Mr
Stewards remarks respecting an irrepressibl'
conflict, originated in his ambition TO reach tht
Presidential chair, thinking an appeal to sec
tional passions and pedjudices the best way tt
reach it, He never had any doubt but tha
the raid OF John Brown was the legitimate ef
! feet OF the teachings Of the extreme section o
| the Republican party North--the teachings o
the Tribune, Wendell Phillips and others.
| He had heretofore thought dissolution o
the Onion impossible, but now ventured to say
| That II northern men persisted IN thls course
and the South preach against the North, th'
dissolution may not be question ot time, bu
may be here; and the first act may produce th'
calamity. Mr.. Larrabee then reviewed Mr.
Stewards irrepressble conflict doctrine III
never heard on this floor or on the stump, thu
Republicans denouncing Abolition sentiments
| 1t appeared to him that the conflict was not be
tween different kinds Of labor, but between
different races of men He did not believe II
the unity of the human race. If the slave
were Free what could be done with them?-'
The North don't wsnt them.
A call OF the House was ordered. A prein
mary ballot for Speaker was had which resul
ted as follows: Sherman Ill; Bocock 85i Bo
teller 90; scattering Unnecessary to choic
lis. Another ballot was taken resulting a
follows: Sherman ITO, Bocock 81, Boteler Is
Geo. Briggs 9-remainder scattering. Ad
