negro" in view of constitutional rights; aud
the question meaut notning more or less
than IS al ina jorities rule. He denied that
there was anything sectional in his PROPOSE
tion, or that IL meant an attack upon the
state of Louisiana. If the charges were true,
that state was lying helpless, and bound at
the feet of a band of conspirators. The
charges were not that Louisiana had done
wrong, but that Louisiana was suffering
wrong. In further commenting
upon Mr.. Morgan's magazine arti-
Gle, Mr. H0ar euiogzed the
uthern gentlemen for their bravery,
intelligence, constancy aud other good quail
ties; but he warned them that within the
lifetime of some who listened TO him, there
would be 100000 negroes dwelling in the
southern states, and that if the methods
reported were persisted in, the white people
of the south we're sowing seed from which
was to come harvest of horror and blood
to which the French revolution or that OF
st. Domingo was light in comparison.
The people of the north were anxious to
aid the south in every possible way If the
south would only receive that help and not
spurn it.
In confusion Mr.. Hoar said that the
committee on privileges and elections l.
reporting the resolution, stood on the
ground Of constitutional law, of constitu-
tional duty aud Of solid facts.
NOT CONSIDERED A REPLY.
Mr.. Daniel criticized Mr.. Hoar's speech
as having contained mo response to the
quest ion asked him. Still be was gratited
at hearing his remarks, and his exposition
Of the resolution of which he was the au-
thor. The senator had expressed SO many
noble sentiments with such tasteful elo-
quence. and with such high appreciation Of
the southern gentleman, at he (Mr.
Daniel could not help forgiving him for
what he had said in the beginning But
the query had occurred to him when he
heard Mr.. Hoar's eulogy of southern
mel, their love of home, their sense of
honor, their constancy and devotion to
| duty, why that senator had not noticed
thai men of snch high character and intel
| ligence were as well aware OF the facts, and
as well competent to judge of the methods
| by which they should be dealt with as
| senator's living a thousand miles away, and
| who had to look at the facts darEiy through
| the medium OF partisan newspapers.
WHITE SLAVE TRADE IN MAssA ACHUsETTs.
II he. Mr.. Daniel, were to rely on news
paper evidence he could prove that white
slave trade was going on to-day in Massa-
chusetts in such way that if the VIII Ue
slave trade was iaconsiste 1t with repub-
lican form of govern uent non-sectional
Sc nat II ought to inquire whether oc not
there was a republican form of govern
ment in Massachusetts. He could prove by
newspaper testimony, which he had before
hi , that in the state Of Ohio not only
white men but colored men had been driven
away and hounded by mobs. He could
prove in the SAM way that colored school
chiliren had been driven from schools
in Ohio, and that there was
a conspiracy there to drive their
fathers and mothers from the lands which
they occupied and to evict them from their
| tenements las the poor Irish were being
| evic ed because they sought TO have their
children educated in the public sch )Ols
A. the senator from Massachusetts has
proclaimed that his resolution was non-sec-
tional, ne slould ask hin ere the resolution
was voted upon, to insert a provision to
have that condition of things in Ohio in
quired into,
Mr. Daniel spoke nearly five hours, and
then yielded for motion to go into execu-
tive session. This motion, however, was
not pres ed, and, fter notice that a resolu.
tion as to the death of Representati We
Burnes of Missouri would be called up at
O'Clock Monday, the Senate, at $3.50 o'cloc ok,
adjourned.
