consider the resolution Of any great prac'icai lmpor
lance, wonld vote for It,. IL did not possesI a;'
treat intrinsic merit for the reason 1t was not iosis

The Platform of some party 1t was rather con-
ISOLATION for a disappointed hope; warning 10 'ns
people of the Border States, which nave she mos
interest in the subject, to which the PRESIDENT
Message especially refers. lie repeated Tue ProPo,
ition was rather palliative than an open, avoWed

+, was not becoming the position of the President
II was not such one as full grown man ougns 70
have published to the nation IN such crisis' !pe
President desired to give more AID and comfort 70 .e
Border Slave States than to the other otates
According to bis Interpretation OF the mes
saqs the President looks to contin-
gency, in which extreme war measures
may become necessary, the abolition OF slavery ~
the Gulf or Cotton States, and he not only Regarded
the Message as offering compensation ior uissp-
pointed hope, but All awful note OF warning 20 the
Border States TO make preparations accordingly. III
this was not the plain Interpretation Oh VIVA. ..e
President meant, then there was most uhi9r'
use of language. In the course OF his remarks, M
Hickman said that the man who IL not "nhns "
save the Constitution and Union W Tue ~
nrvate interest and property, is already heoei.
lie cared not on whose this declaration Iei WIN
barsbness The Border Slave States were not IN tue
Union because they loved tho Union, but because
they feared worse. .. =, ,h.,
Mr. WICKLIFFE (Un., Ky.)-I oppose to tha'
remark an unqualified contradiction. .
Mr.. HICKMAN said this did not contradict MN,
and then proceeded to speak Of Kentucky ana Mary
land az not being loyal at the commencement % 'e
rebellion. He was but speaking the PLAN truth.
Mr. BLAIR REP, Mo- said his State STRUCK ,le
first blow before they obtained aSsiShioo ""n '"'
Federal Government.
Mr.. HICKMAN said that the people kept striking
blows before they knew whether they were I'D OF
out of the Union He spoke Of Mr.; Biair services
as valuable, and adding much TO the aurei' WHICH
that gentleman was entitled TO wear
Mr. DI,AIR said the credit was due to the people
~ b;s state and not to himself and if this Govern
ment had not been previously PdrhcePs erur,ns III
the rebellion, they would have bad less Difficulty.
Messrs WEBSTER and CRlstiEED ooth iron,
MARYLAND, severally denied that their State remained
In the Union for fear Of wore consequences, ana
spoke Of the loyalty OF Maryland.
mr.. COVODE rep, Pa remarked that be was
sorry to say that the Governor Of Maryland, at the
tms the troops were, prevented from coming
through Baltimore, made q speech under aSeceS-
sion flag in that city.
Mr.. CRISFIELD replied that the Governor did
as stated, but he regretted 1t as well us did his
friend II was a time Of excitement, and some ex-
cuse should DO afforded. The general course, now.
ever Of Gov. Hicks was not only patriotic and
, al tam
Mr. FISHE said that Mr.. Hickman s remark Is
IN the Bor,er States, go far as Delaware was con-
cerped. was untrue. 1t was true, there were some
men there who would have drawn that State into
Secession had they possessed bold leader aud the
power. $50
Mir. THOMAS I'm. Md said, II the gentleman
had confined his denuncaton to individuals 10 Mary
land. he Thomas) would have been found dislnter'
ested spectator.
Mr.. HICKMAN concluded by saying that slave
holders love Slavery as much as they i9ve 1od:
There was no difference between Shareholder OF
MARYLAND and STAKEHOLDER Of South Carolina.
The President was between two swords, the one OF
his psrty the other OF the Border Slave States and
WAS expected to crush treason 'at the earliest
moment But the nation have been disappointed In
their reasonable expectations, ard In the military
leaders appointed by the President.
