Mr. HICKMAN, of Pennsylvania, was opposed to

eu lie had from the first thought that 100 600
men would be amply sufficient for the work in

tended to force the South into submission to tbo
laws OF the Government. 1t intended to educate
the people of the South into obedience to tho
GoVernment, and ifit should become necessary to
iorce them into abJect submission the fault would
be their own. The army OF the Union should pre
cede the laws of the Union from the lakes tn the

deep in Southern soil, that centuries shall not
etface it. 1t necessary that rebellion should
receive terrible rebuke.

duction of the army. England dared not afford aid
to the rebels, but no one could tell what the next
sixty days might bring forth, and he desired to
meet every contingency.
Mr.. Cox, of Ohio, confessed to a chronic distrust
OF England. Gentlemen on the other side professed
to place an unbuunded confidence in the Executive
He distrusted all grants of power to that DEPART
ment, aud as representatives of the people it was
the duty OF the House to disjrust the power of the
Executive.
The debate was becoming quite animated and

OF Mr. Blair that the Committee rise. That end
accomplished, he moved that the House apain 90
