threats Of war, no military display, no
tramp Of armed men, no glittering bayo-
nets, will drive the people Of the great
Northwest from that position. The de-
mand, sir, which !. was first = made
Of the North upon this floor, was made
four weeks from the time the verdict OF
the people was rendered and that demand
was simply this: you must surrender your
convictions, you must abandon your prin-
ciplcs you must make surrender Of, your
political faith, or this Union will be bro.
ken up. That was the plain import Of the
demand which was made by the country,
and I am panied, Lam panied here nearly
every day to see the Senator from Ken
tuckey, and others whom ! believe to be
loyal and true to this country, and to BE-
lovers Of this Union, turning to the Re-
publican members Of this Chamber, and
asking them if they are true friends o.
this Union. Sir, who has menaced the
Union; who has ever said, from the north
ern States anywhere, that they were not
true friends to the Union! The Senator
from Virginia Mr.. Mason] said; the other
day in his place, that his State had been
engaged in preparing for war for the last
twelve months; that they had 100000
to arm the MALTA; that even towns and
counties had volunteered to raise money
to arm the Malitia of that State and for
what purpose? to fight whom and to fight
what? Why have these preparations for
war been made all over the South! And
with the speeches that have been made
here showing that the South have been
preparing to arn, themselves for the pur-'
pose Of war, the Senator from Kentucky,
who is saving this Union, has uttered
no word Of reproof tor those gentle3
men who have made those threats here
upon this floor. . ,-:. !:,.::; -

Senator Wiikinson on the Crisis.
And strength in our hand

=.
On presenting the memorial of the Re:
publican members Of the Minnesota Legis.
lature to the United States Senate, or the
l4th instant, Mr.. Wilkinson made the
f>llowing remarks: .:
| Mr. Wilkinson.-I present, the memo
rial of several gentlemen in the State of
Minnesota, in relation. to the State of the
Union; anil | wish simply to remark ythat
they are members Of the Leyisllature-the
Senate and House Of Representatives.
that State, End embrace, | believe, every
Republican member Of that body. They
are in striking contrast, MIR. President,
with the petitions which have been receiv-
ed rom the cities of Boston, New York,
and Philadelphia, and other places, so nu.
lnerously signed, and presented here in ia
vor of the Crittenden propositions. And
l wish simply to state, that il my humble
judgment, if Senators, or if the people,
would ascertain what the true sentiment Of
the ceuttry is, they must get off from the
sidewalks. Of our cities they must. go, away
from the comme' cial districts Of this
country; they must penetrate into the in.
terror; for 1 am satisfied that it is now
here in this country precisely. as it was
two thousand years ago in the Old World;
when it was declared that =, -.
''Ilono1 sinks where commerce long prevails" "
If Senators would ascertain what the
true sentiment: Of the country is, they
must 90 to the wool growing regions of Yer
mont, to the wheat: fields Of New York.. to
the agricultural and mining districts Of
Pennsylvania. Yes, sir; they must pene.
tratc to the very heart Of the eight million
sof people residing on their own acres in the
great Northwest, and ask them this qucs.
tion are you prepared to ma ke a surrender
of, your convictions, Of your principles, of
your honor, at the bidding Of orgauized
rebels and traitors? And, sir, when that
answer comes, las como it certainly ,xill

whead' my spirit is weary
And borne down with care;
When life seems a burden,
And when darkest despair
Cnshrouds the bright day
In the blackncss Of night, -.
And my soul gropes in vain
For the least ray Of light
Then come ye not, loved ones,

With loves gentle whispers,
Or sympathy'e tear.
No pity I ask;
But bring from the moat
My bonnie light skiA,
A wee little boat
Then burrah for a ride,
As We paddle from shore,
Ger the blue waters wide
With light feathered oar.
The pride of my nature
Now casts off the chain,
Unfolds her bright wings
To the soft breeze again.
What world Of delight -;
As VIC bound Ger the wave;
The spray floats around us-
The wild pillows rave.
On, on, we are rushing
In the widest delight
We orc free as the air,
And our spirits as light.
See! its sharp cutting PROV
And its soft swelling side,
Its light graceful bound
As the waters divide. ...

Scarcely leaving q wake
On the blue heaving breast
