THE PRIVILEGE OF THE WRIT
AF HABEAs CORPUS ~


On the 10th day of December, 1861,
in the House Of Representatives, Mr..
Pendleton, of Ohio offered the following
resolutian:
/" Resolced, That the Congress alone
has the power under the Constitution of
the United States, to suspend the privi-
lege of the writ of habeas corpus; that
the exercise of that power by any other
Department of the Government is usur-
patton, and therefore dangerous to the
liberties of the people, &c.
Mr.. Pendleton addressed the House at
length in support Of his resolution.
Mr.. Bingham of Ohio, in reply said:.
"In my Judgment what my colleague has
said upon this question, and all that can
be said upon it, has been fully and salts
factorily answered by the argument of
the Attorney General of the United
States, which was submitted to this House
at its recent session, and which, by the
order of the House, has been printed and
distributed among the people. think
the answer to all that has been said is to
be found in that argument / may be
INDUCED by the House, however, in the
single remark, that notwithstanding the
ability of my colleague, he has not been
able in his labored argument to disguise
the fact that the time has long since come
contemplated by the words Of the Consti-
| tuition, when it is competent, and not
only competent, but the duty of some
power in this Government, to suspend
the privilege Of the writ of habeas corpus.
Ifthis be conceded, and do not think my
colleague will be quick to deny the prop
osition, then his argument destroys itself,
because it implies censure upon HIM
self and upon this House, for not dis
charging the duty long ago which de-
volved upon it and upon every member
of it, and to the faithful discharge OF
which they were bound, most solemnly
bound by the oaths which they took at
that tribune of the people. The gentle
mans argument is that Congress alone
can suspend the privilege of the writ Of
habeas corpus, and by every intendment
of his speech he concedes that the time
has come when it ought to be suspended.
Why, then, was my colleague silent
When rebellion has lifted up its hands
over one-half of the Republic and in its
madness and fury strives to shake down
the pillars of the temple of constitutional
liberty and drench this land in the blood
of its children, it is no time to be split
ting hairs and carping about the question,
whether Congress or the President shall
first exercise the power Of suspeDding the
privilege of the writ of habeas corpus. 'it
