Mr.. Cox's vigorous and telling exposure of the
inconsistency OF the Republicans was altogether
the best part of Saturday : debate II the great
hullaballoo about Mr.. Long is anything more
than dishonest electioneering trick why did not
the Republicans propose 10 expel Mr.. CONWAY of
Kansas. when he stood up in his place and al
vised the recognition of Southern independence?
Mr. Conway is Republican and Mr.. Long pro
feSses 10 be Democrat-and that makes all the
difference between LOYALTY and treason. IL
strikes ia that publication. like charity, should
begin AT home; and that the first member of the
House who committed this form of treason,
should be the first TO suffer for it. The case OF
Mr.. Conway was perfectly in point so precise
ly similar, that it is no wonder the hypOcrites
were staggered bv Mr. Cox's effective home
thrust. In our judgment. aud we dare saw also
in the judgment of every Republican member of
the House. the expulsion of Nc. Conway for ad-
vOcating recognition would have been comforting
on his remarks "A preposterous importance. as
well infringement ct the freedom of debate.
