The House then went into committee vf
the Whole on TIE Presidents message,
Mr.. Noel Of. Missouri argued that the
present organized Democratic party did NOT
render unqualified support to the war, but
was continually throwing obstacles iii the
way Of its prosecution. He undertook TO
say that it was delhsiof to think that this
war might have been prevented by the adop L
tion OF the Crittenden compromise. 1t was ?
true that some Of the leaders Of the rebei-
lion had voted for that Compromise: but the
history of subsequent events shows that if e
ten or twelve votes had been necessary I'd
defeat that measure, they could have been
procured. He would go further, and say
that there was nothing in the Crittenden
compromise that would have prevented the
rebellion. The enemies Of the Administras
ton held cut the idea that the war was not
'or the restoration OF peace, but for the Alb.
olition OF slavery; but this was untrue, al.
though such might be tie result. They as
sert that The Administration tramples Oh the
Constitution, and all the rights aud priyiis 3
eges under that instrument are to be swept
by the board, and that the Union 10 10 bs
contended for without the Constltution.-
He. had witnessed some Of these SO. called
violations OF the Constitutions: When the
war broke out, the enemies of the couptrv
were not confined to rebel States, but were
scattered all over the land. Never was
conspiracy SO we'll concocted. eiaa a89qe
Notwithstanding the opinion Of J udges.,Tan.
ey and Story as 10 tie Presidents beine Gull.
ty ofa violation oftbe Constitution in sus.
corpus, he justified President Lincoln in do
ing so, Confiscatien OF rebel property is an =
other pretext for making war on the Admin (
lstratlen, men Of the border States who have
been trampled in the dust take 1t as unkind
that the enemies Of the wat expend their
only upon the wives and children
OF men engaped in the rebellion. The Dor.
der States wish to ses. retaliation visited ON
the rebels for their crimes.
Again, the enemies Of this war exhibit
frghtfnl pictures ofthe financial condition of
the country; but those who got up the rebel +
lion are responsible for every drop Of blood,
every dollar ofext' aordinary expenditure and
for all irregularities committed. Mr.. Noel
to contrast the course Of the anti
war party Of 1872 with that, of, the present
das, insisting that the parallel was perfect
In this connection he Quoted the position
Of the, Federalists Of Massachusetts at thae
time. H.t #3fa s1HsFfNsGl safsF a&E
Nj Thomas, of massachusetts,, interrupt-f
ing, said: II the gentleman from Missouri
desired in any way to give character to the
class OF men whom both oil them condemfl.
the peace Democrats--he could
not have pursued more effectual course. for
the old Federaiists Of New England we're
the most honest party that ever lived be-.
meath the thrown Of God. "' '' s''" ''A3
Mr.. NceE resuming, said be started With
the proposition that the present. organized
Democratic party was inconsistent. When
slavery comes in as an element of rebsl
strength, and the question is presented be-
tween i's perpeuation and the preservation
of the Uuion, then let the former die. "a Is
