MIR. Henry, Of Tennessee, did not
think the resolution strong enough.
The time had arrived when we should
declare war of determination upon
every foe that puts his foot upon
our soil, no matter what may be the
bleodshed it may cause. We should
meet foe Of the character that me-
nances us under the black flag, and
neither ask nor receive quarter, from
this day henceforward. He proceeded
to argue that if a war of determination
were declared. no quarter being al
lowed, the Northern soldiers would
not dare to invade the soil of the

The Proclamation at Richmond.

From the spirit with which the Presi-
dents Emancipation Proclamation has
been received in the South, it is evident
that it reaches the sore spot of the re-
bellion. 1t will do them a great good
by removing from before their eyes the
deception with which their svmpathi-
zers North have blinded them. Re]v-
ing upon their traitor friends here. thew
have never before quite believed that
the Federal Government would give
slavery its death blow. Let them no
longer trust to Northern traitors.
Mr.. Semnes. of La, introduced in
the rebel Senate, on the goth of Sept.
the following resolution:
Resolrea, BY the Congress of the
Confederate States, that the Proclama-
ton OF Abraham Lincoln, President of
the United States of America, issued
at the city Of Washington, in the year
1862, wherein he declares ''that on the
first day Of January, in the year of our
Lord 1868, all persons held as slaves
within any State or designated parts of
a State whereof the people shall be in
rebellion against the United States.
shall be thencetorth and forever free, .
IS levied against the citizens of the
Confederate States, and as such is a
gross violation Of the usage of civilized
warfare, an outrage on the rights of
property, and an invitation to an afro
cious seryile war, and therefore should
be held up to the xeclation Of man
kind and counteracted by such severe
retallatory measures, as in the ;udg-
ment Of the President may be best cal
culated to secure its withdrawal or ar
rest its execution.
Mr.. Semmes said the resolution had
not been drawn without reflection.
Mr.. Clark, Of Missouri, said the reso-
luton did not go far enough. He
thought the President should be an
taorlzed Immediately to proclaim that
every person found in arms against the
Confederate Government and it's insti-
tutlons, on our soil, should be put to
death, and that every citizen of the
contederacy be proclaimed soldier
for the time being, to execute the proc
lamation upon the persons of every
murderer, thief, and scoundrel. en-
dorsed and acting under the proclama-
ton of Lincoln.

he had always been in favor of conduct

If that flag had been raised at Manas-
as year ago, the war ere now would
have been ended.
