Payne opposed the second section Of Stevens Bill,
which recognized the present State Governments,
which he denounced as piraticai. Mr. Bingham's
speech occupied one hour and a quarter. he SAID
the Bill, instead of being one OF reconstruction,
was one Of destruction; instead Of restoration was
disurion and perpetual dismemberment. He
showed the absurdity Of denying that the rebel
States were States, and said that Congress- the
Courts, and the Executive had recognized them.
He knew that these rebels had filed the land with
graves. Now that 400, 600 citizens had fallen mar
tyra to the country and the Constitution, it was IN
view Of their great transgresslon that their pro-
posed universal forgiveness rose into the sublime
and challenged parallel in history. He protested
against the Bill and closed by moving to refer 1T
to the Committee on Reconstruction. MIR. Dawson
