believed the amendment was in accordance with
the views of large number of the people Of the
State. He said II seemed as If 1t was the pur-
pose Of some men TO try how far they could
strain the bonds that bind the Union together.
Certain leaders of the Republican party drive
their friends to this extreme. He desired to
show the necessity for the passage of the bill,
as there is q party in the State whose course
should be crushed. He was opposed to slavery;
but the agitation of the question did no good;
but its fruits 30 far had been evil and only evil
