was strange compound OF imbecility and treacbery,
and don't know which quality preponder.ted most
ia tie man to brif on the deporable consequences
which have bef4en this Government. These traitors
plotted secession and destruction OF tie Union, a1d
/ 10 do this they saw that they must divide tie OLD
Democrat, party. Therefore Southern Democrat,
whom they knew 10 he supple and III favor OF ihelf
plans, was opposed to Douglas who mustered me
strength OF the Northern Democracy. And thus
they Intended to 30 weaken and break up the
Democratic party as TO lead 10 the very events
they had 10 long hoped for. The gentleman from
Indiana must have known this, for lie was III Tue

MIR. Davis then referred TO the course OF the
seeded States couteucng that there WAS
cause for secession. lie considered II great
mi take that Old Hickory was not allowed 10 20 "a
aud hang The traitors from South Carolina ~ 1872
lie Davis knew that there were warrants issued
Tor treason against three OF the principal traitors,
and nt the very fret gun from Charleston
Old Hickory would have seiZcd these traitors
and hung them. But now conspiracy of thirty
wears has broken out IN Ii stnpeudOus rebellion, and
there are many people in the South To-Day who
would like TO have q cir old enemy England, rule
over them, with whom already we have had two
sirusg les. Rather than such thing tboull happen,
lie would prefer 10 roe the whole American codutry
sunk to he bottom Of the ocean, In conclusion, be
argued tie Senate had night to eAIel any mem er
whose conduct in any way untitled bin Tor duty,
and any Senator who aycws himself opposed 90 co.
ercion aud who is not willing 10 give tie Govern
'nent siugle man or gun 10 sutduc Tie rele.Lon,
was evidently uuiitted for Ii Senator.
Without concluding, Mr.. DAVIS gave way, and on
motion OF Mr.. WADE, the Senate went into eNecu-
tive session. After executive session - Senate ad-
lcurued.
