l tion.The Disoussion--Senate Pro-
ceedings. s
From the Ohio State Jourasil "
On motion Of Mr.. Lang, tho rcsolution
offered by Mr.. McVeigh, for appointing q
COMMITTEES TO wait upon Mr.. Critchield and
inform him Of his election, was taken from
the table.
+ Mr. Lang remarked thar his object was
simply TO remove from the Senate cause for
contention. He; didn't care whether the
resolution was adopted or not; it was merely
. compliment, as there was nothing in the
constitution requiring such action. But
he didn't want the Democratic patty to be
held responsible for the expression Of opin,
lon of any one man. There were extreme
men in nll parties, and they alone should be
held responsible for their opinions. r ~
Mr.. Kenny stated that he was authorized
by Mr. Critchfed 10 say, that he did not
on the occasion referred to, make any such
declaration as he was charged with. But
il would make but little difference with the
Senator whether this resolution passed OF
not, the people Of Ohio had designated Mr..
Critchfeld as the man to act in the capacity
OF Attorney General and if he took the oath
to support the Constitution Of the State and
United States, no would be entitled to
discharge, SO far as he. was capable, the
duties Of that office. 1t seemed to him
strange that this body, even ifthe gentleman
had made the declaration referred to- should
attempt to- hold the Democratic party
rospensible for il, when men Of much great.
ef political character in their own party lad
! made more extreme and foolish declarations
such rs let the Union slide, and "if the
Southern Confcderacy maintain their in.
dependence for one year, let them CO." II
l were the Attorney General elect, said the
Senator, would take IL as a compliment II
this Legislature didn't notify me Of my
election, for he does not owe his election to
the majority Of this body. / look upon il
as mean, low fling ut the Democracy, anG
intended as such. 1' f" ~
The President here called the gentleman
to order. III w
Mr. Kenny concluded by saying he had
only intended to give the disclaimer he wa,
authorized to do by the Attorney General
which was that he didn't give utterance tc
the sentiments with which he was charged.
Mr. McLung-Will the Senator tell Vi
what he did give utteranco to? E4't
Mr.. Gunckel-For one, am disposed tt
pay MIR. Critchfield the compliment hi
friend (tlie Senator from Ashland) asket
for. AM glad the Senator puts it upon ths
ground he does, that the resolution is moi
required by law. In all other cases, tn.
courtesy has been extended to gentlemen
and loyal men, and would confine 1t ts
such now. said yesterday, when mad,
the motion to lay the resolution on the table
and say so now, that if the Senator viii
say the gentleman uttered no treasonabl,
