Mr.. WADE-I do say now there Is no very consld-
cradle degree Of good feeling existing between the
different seetons Of this nation, and do not know TO-
day but that the sentiment, n not true then Is very
nearly true now. Northern men cannot travel and 90

no, because there any particular accusation against
them but because they were from section Of which
the South was exceedingly jealous. Mr. Wade then
preceded reply the remarks Of Mr. lverson IN re-
gard TO Mr. Sherman, saying that II ONO Mr.. oher
man was considered OF the greatest ornaments OF
TIE State and he Wade rejoiced to know that the
Republican party IepOfed the utmost confidence IN
him. They have found nothing in him but what they
can approve, and M. Iyerson after all hs inyelga-
fons could find nothing more serious to condemn IN

carefully, ard found nothing but Arguments against

saw nothing in the book but what was night and proper
for the consideration Of all who take an interest IN

Mr. BROWN XVI here read several extracts from
Helpers Book, showing It's obnoxious character
. Mr. WADE would not defend the sentiments there
expressed but saw harm in laying them before the
country for i,s consideration
Mr. BROWN went on reading: This Is the out
line Of our scheme for the abolition of Slavery in the
Southern States - and yet were daily told that the
Republicans have intention to interfere with oav
cry in the States. Mr. Seward indorses and approves
this work and gays ho has read IT carefully, ana OF
course he approves these obnoxious sentiments.
Mr. WADE said Gov. Letcher had indorsed the
rannblet which contained the same kind Of language
as Helpers book, only on the other sac ne sent an
extract 10 the deck. which was read by the Clerk.
Mr. HUNTER Wal explained that great injustice
had been done 10 Mr. Letcher. He had signed an
address for the publication of Runners work, but
