The louisiana Troubles In the Senate
.. -aA Again. a .7
WASHINGTON, January TN the Senate
yesterday the Louisiana discussion was re.
sumed.
MIR. HAMILTON, of Maryland, said the Sc.
pator from Wisconsin (Howe) bad suggested
f" What are you going to do if the President
don't answer the resolutionf" He did not
believe the President would decline to an.
swer. "but what will we do if he don't
give the reasons for his action? The army
| does not belong to the President nor to the
government Of any State but 1t belongs to
the people, and as representatives Of the
people, if the President uses the army
for improper purpoSes-if be uses it against
the liberties of the people-we can stop his
supplies, we can strip him of every soldier,
we can leave him without vessel. That Is
a remedy which We have against despotic
Executive, and Our duty to the people might
| he such as to compel Us to use it,"
Mr.. LOGAN said he had reported that, in
his opinion, there had been such frauds that
neither Kellogg nor McEnery were elected.
he then repeated his question to Mr.. HAAIL-
TON whether be endorsed the action of Penn
in oyerturning the State government.
Mr.. HAMILTON: "Wby, there was no State
government to overthrow, and the honorable
Senator has so reported" daughter on the
floor and applause in the galleries
Mr.. SARGENT, Of California, gave notice
that in case of further applause he would
move that the galleries be cleared.
Mr.. LOGAN said that so far as be was con.
cerned be did not mind the applause in the
gallery. 1t was the same he had heard years
ago in the infancy of the rebellion.
Mr.. HAMILTON, resuming his argument,
said as 10 the causes of the late war he would
say nothing, but be would say to the honor
able senator from Illinois Uogan) that Anne.
rican freedom was born in revolution and
rebellion, and the sympaties OF the Ameri-
can people were always with those who rose
against oppression and tyranny. [Great az
psuse out of the gallery, and Kisses in the
gallery on the right Of the Chair.]
Mr.. SARGENT moved that the galleries be
| cleared. Agreed to.
MIR. CoSKL1NG appealed to the Senator from
California (SlrgenD to so modify his motion
as 10 clear those Of the galleries where re.
peated disrespect had been shown. So far
as those persons whom he hesri by their
predecessors of 1850 and 1861 were con-
cerned, be knew they were practiclpg their
insults on the rights of the Senate. He bad
no objection to interpose against turning
them out of the galleries.
Mr.. Triton, of Nebraska, only wanted to
finish the speech commenced by the senator
from New York when he (ConkIing) init
mated that all this applause came from per-
sons who sympatbiZed with the gentleman
from Mary land. He (Tipton) wished to re-
mind him that much of the applause Of yes.
terday was from those who mpathized
with the party to which the gentleman
(Conklne) belonged. .'.'. r..
Mr.. CoNXLINa said: Yes, and time after
time when applause occurred the Chair bad
admonished the galleries to be quiet. A few
moments ago, when his friend behind him
Logan) made some remarks, there was ap-
plause in the galleries, and it was then that
the Chair 6rst admonished the galleries to-.
day. Applause had before been bestowed
upon the gentleman from Maryland, but no
admonition was given then. 1t did not con-
Germ him (Conkling), as he did not receive
The applause, but 1t did concern the decency
and order of the Senate. The spectators
should not be allowed to thunder as If they
were in theatre or circus. .-'
The discussion was continued at length
without action.
Mr.. HAMILTON, in conclusion, urged that
nesce be given 10 Louisiana by allowing the
neople of that State to rule over their own
affairs. and once more there would be peace
throughout the land.
Mr. BAyARD next got the floor, but before
proceeding the Senate went into executive
session.
Extraordinary Scene I'm the Senate.
WASHINGTON, January 1.-THE scene In
the Senate to-day was most extraordinary.
It was evident the police Of the Capitol was
not sufficient to clear the galleries, and the
doorkeepers and other officials were called
to special duty. The resolution was subse-
quently modified to remove only those who
we're boisterous.
1t may be stated that the proceedings In
Louisiana are damned by faint praise from
the most ultra.
