tanning this position he referretso the record of

the purpose of keeping the eleven Southern States

and are to-day. In maintaining this he did NOT

Southern States being in the Irn;ou. are entitled

Mr.. Baker Of Illinois said that "a his mind
two fundamental nr;nc;plcs had bcen presented
If these were firmly adhered to by the small Dem
ocratie opuosition in this Uouse n was ,lso am
parent that they were favored bv few of the
overwhelming numbers of the Union marty one
was an order to restore liberty to the States lately
in rebellion and to give to their Representatives
their former position in Congress. The course to
be pursued was simply to act under that clause Of
the Constitution which gives to each House the
right to Judge Of the election qualifications and
returns of its own members. The other idea was in
keeping with the highest prerogative of Congress-
and demanded by the people, viz that we should
20 behind the mere surface Of the election qualifi-
| ton and return Of members. He held that it was
the duty of Congress to fix up the House for fu-
ture Recommendations, and until that time South
ern States should take back seats.
Dir. Broomali, Of Pa. said the great point was
what should be done with the people lately in re-
hcllion, on the solution Of which depended the
continuance OF the country. There were, he con-
tenaed. no rights Of the vanquished to embarrass
our action in reyivingiold States or keeping the
conquered country in territorial condition. as
either may subserve the interests Of the entire ma
ton. conquered people have no rights. civil or
political. The victor may adopt measures to
prevent recurrence of hestilities. In civil war
the conquered can be treated as the the conquer
or pleases.
Mr. Baker. of Illinois. insisted that additional
guaranties should be required. before the Rebel
States are allowed to return to the Union.
House adjourned.
