debate would be limited to one hour.
Mr.. Hurlbut, of Illinois replied to the
invec,ives which had been poured IN
against the Republican party by the gen
tlemen from Georgia and Alabama, Mr..
Hill and Mr.. Yestes, and criticised the
speech of the gentleman from Georgia as
an astonishing parody on the parable OF
the Prodlgal Son, with the difference,
that the Prodigal Son asked his fathers
forgiveness, while the Southera people
did not.
He said he believed there existed 8
division 10 this day in the public senti-
ment of this country, between those who
believed that lsvying was crime and
those who did not so believe, and that II
existed SIS strong as it did in 1864 and
1866. He then proceeded to argue against
the reduction OF the salaries OF the gov
ernment officials.
