SENATOR Harris, of New York, (Rep.,
just before the final vote for the expulsion
of Jesse D. Bright was taken rebuked the
arrogant abolitionis.s In the following
sharp manner:
Il have as little sympathy with the
political sentiments of the Senator from
Indiana as any other Senator on this floor.
For many years l have had, above all. no
sy mpathy for his doctrine Of non coercion.
The Senator from Kentucky, l thought,
with little self-complacency, congratulated
himself that he had risen above the con-
tracing and dwarfng influences Of the
legal profession, which sometimes operate
on the minds of men, and has been able to
rise to the higher sphere of what he called
large craftsmanship. l might envy that
Senator il | were unable to do this on a
question of craftsmanship; but when a
Senator is on trial for crime, whatever
may be my political preferences or preJu-
dices, feel bound TO see that that Senator,
if he were my bitterest foe. has fair and
equal justice meted out.
CAS- understand it, Senators are ncw
acting as a Judicial tribunal. determining
upon the rights of Senator. and they are
to be governed by no such principles.
sublimited as they may be. as those sug-
gested by the Senator from Kentucky. He
told us that the Senate was 10 Ds controll.
ed by no common law or parliamentary
usage. but it WAS to decide whether or not
the Senator on trial was unfit for parlmen-
tary duty.
1t is well for this Senate that this doc.
trine had not been promul gated at an ear
!ier day. Ii SO, the Senator from Massa-
chusetts Mr.. Sumner would never have
been permitted to hurl his polished, burn
ing shafts against the barbarism of slave.
ry, and the clarion voice of the veteran
Senator from New Hampshire Mr.. Hale
would long since have ceased to resouud
in this hall. And there are other Sena.
tors who have lorg been suspected of be-
ing too much imbued with a certain un-
healthy doctrine to have held their seats
by any certain tenure, if the Senate had
been allowed to expel Senators, because in
the judgment of the Senate. they were ur-
fit for parliamentary duty"
