SPEECH OF HON. JOHN HUTCHINS,
In Committee Of the Whole, on VVednes
day, May I'd.

When the distinguished Senator from n
York, WILLIAM H. SEWARD, ! in his Roch-
ester speech in 1858, defined the antago-
nism between free and slave labor to be an
irrepressi5ie conflict, be announced truth
inherent in the two systems, and cnval
with slavery. The same idea has been fire.
quently expressed in different forms by the
opponents and advocates of slavery in their
discussions of the subject If Mr.. Seward,
in the statement of this truth, is entitled
to the claim of originality, it is in the use
of. words expressive of ideas. He has
been represented as originating the antago-
nism, instead of defining it, He in apt
words clearly defined what is patent to a
student Of history and to a careful observer
of passing events, namely that there is
an irTeconcilable antagonism between free,
dom and slavery. 1t is being demonstra-
ted, if it never were before, by the logic of
events now transpiring. The words free
dom and slavery are expressive of opposite
ideas, and wherever the two systems come
in contact, there must necessarily be cen

which would encourage free labor would

as to measures in the legislation of Con-
gress affecting the two systems of labor.
When in fixing tariff of duties upon i'm
ports, with a view to make the annual rev.
enues of the Government equal its annual
expenditures, discrimination is made upon
such articles as free labor produces, SO as
to afford incidental protection, then we find
the advocates Of free labor and the advo-
Gates of slave labor in antagonsm on this
floor When it is proposed to encourage
free labor by inviting it to occupy and inn
prove our unoccupied public domain, by
the passage of a homestead law, then we
encounter the same antagonism. And so
IL was with every measure proposed having
the least relation to either system Of labor.
Ihe establishment of the fact of conflict
between freedom and slavery, does not, as
logical sequence, determine which is right
OF wh'eh Is wrong, propose, therefore,
9rlely 70 examine that question, and ad
dress myself to that inquiry.
The advocates of slavery upon this AooI
have frankly and ably presented the oues
tion for our consideration ; and nronose
to meet it, If the system of free labor
as it exists in the free states Of this Union
is wrong, we ought, as honest men, to aban
don it, and adopt that higher type of civil
ization as it is claimed, which exists in the
slave States If the system Of slave labor
