ensued. Fs4
Mr.. Dunn was finally permitted to proceed.
The people of Indiana, he said, knew him and
his colleague. There were two witnesses OF
his Remuneration of the bred Scott decision
besides the paper, and doubtless the constitu-
ents OF his Democratic colleague Mr. Davis
would be able to state what his course had
been In the canvass The gentleman could
not escape upon the plea that the bred Scott
decision applied only to the citizenship of a
negro, for he knew. that was regarded on all
sides as an Insignificant point of the decision.
The fercest Abolitionist that ever trod the soil
of Indiana, or helped John Brown in his raid
in Virginia, could not have denounced the
bred Scott decision with more bitterness and
force than his colleague did in his speech at
indianapolis. As to the charge of falsehood,
he would leave that to the people of Indiana,
where they both were known.

At the last session Of Congress, bill was intro.

land titles in Missouri. Senator Benjamin, who
was, and is, chairman of the Committee on
Private Land Claims, offered an amendment
to include some similar cases in Louisiana
Under this clandestine proceeding, and without
naming it by name, the famous case Of the
Houmas land grant was included, in which Mr..
Benjamin's colleague and particular friend,
Senator Slidell, is the claimant, and to whose
benefit the amendment was to inure. The
out suspicion, on the part of the members of

persons long before Mr.. Slidell made his pur-

petitioned Congress to repeal the hasty and
sinister act into which it has been betrayed
Mr.. Toombs presented their petition last Tues
day, and, after some discussion, the matter was
referred to a select committee. The quantity
of land involved is no less than ninety thousand
acres, and is said to be worth million Of dol

Senator Slidell is one Of the ablest and most
adroit leaders of the Democratic party, and

Desires and efforts may at times appear In
party leaders to turn this common sentiment,
universal in that State, to party account. i
think such effort has been made in Union meet
ings recently held but such efforts themselves
prove the strength of this sentiment which is
universal there.
The proceedings of the meeting whose reso-
buttons have just been read speak for all politi-
cal parties. But Mr.. President, as repre-
sentative of the State without any such author
ity as these resolutions furnish, should not
hesitate, on the subject of the Union, to speak
for all-for Democrats and Americans, as well
az for Republicans. They are all friends of
the Union. At this meeting in Rochester there
was some disorder and division of opinion on
the question of adopting the resolution which
condemns the sentiment, that the election of q
President by constitutional majority, having
views of public policy with which the minority
do not coincide, would furnish . just cause for
a dissolution of the Union, and which pledges
support to President constitutionally elected,
and protection in the lawful discharge of his
duties, from all enemies within or without at
home or abroad. On that resolution, the com
