SFFAKF.R I nliould not thrust I mysrlf upon tin? attention of the Houso at this timo, could I with justice to myself remain silent. So vai ied an«l novel are the schemcs I of reconstruction and the resolutiotiR I upon flint suhject tli.it arc crowded through the House without opportuni ty f(»r di hiitc, tindor the oponttion of the "previous question," that it seems 1 necessary for members who desire thoir true position understood upon this vex ed question to take the opportunity of fered for the discussion of the Presi dent's message to do so. After so many greut minds, at both ieudsof this Capitol, have exhausted st i thoroughly all vit-ws and phases.f this! only express the earnest, deeply fixed! convictions of one of the humblest up-, at the vast responsibility to our couu-11 try, our countrymen, and to Cod, un-1 der which we rest as members of this Congress Never before in the history of na tions has a legislative body met charg |ed with such duties and obligations us •have been imposed upon us. We are legislating for the present and the fu ture. The ellect of our action will not be circumscribed b}- our time and couu try alone it will reach the whole earth and the remotest generation. Ten million people, emerging from the chaos of war, stand before us pow ierless, disarmed, without government, i without law, save from the strong arm |of the military power, awaiting our ac tion, demanding from us the full exer cise of the rights they enjoyed in the i better days gone by, when, trtie to the I'nion, they stood side by side with moil flag. What have they done Why are they knocking thus at the doors of our national conncils Why these vacant seats? Ah! they have 'committed the most fearful and gigan I tic crime known in the records of time I Tliey conspired to overthrow and blot from the book of nations the Gov ernment of our fathers, under whose protecting power they had grown rich, powerful, and enjoyed every blessing, without cause, save the desire to per petuate human bondage. They con 'spired against popular rights and lib erty. They sought to dishonor and dc» grade labor. Governors, Legislatures, judges, mu nicipal officers the whole machinery of government, State and local all collective and individual action of the peeple. were directed with awful pow er for long and terrible years for the I destruction of this Republic. i In the cabinet, on the field, on the ocean, in foreign climes and capitals, with armed men, with the torch, with poison, with fire, by robltery, arson, u,"l cook-book." pursued their work of death.

They i staud before God and inan staggering under the murder of three hundred I thousand of the noblest men that ever I went forth to battle and to death i They have desolated ami darkened ev ery home in the land $3,000,000,000 'of national debt, $500,000,000 inore obligations incurred by States and counties two million men have shoul dered arms for the Republic one hun dred aud three thousand'pensions upon our bounty caused by the war. These are some of the results of their action. They failed. Such men as were gath ered into hosts and marched to the music of the Union and swept the arm ies of treason from the I ami were nev er before given to any country. How we should prize aud cherish those who live, bind up their wounds, give them of our substance in their time of need. And those who died, whose precious dust reposes iu the soil of every State, let us remember and sanctify their resting-places, and guard well their widows and orphaus as the nation's treasure. What is the condition of those States and people What their relations to the eueral Government What filial 1 we do with them And now, without resentment or fear or looking backward or trimming our sails to catch s«mc popular breeze, act ing under our oaths, and with the de sire only to do right as it is given us to see the right," let us cuter upon the consideration of these momentous questions. All sovereignty rests with the peo ple iu this country by virtue of this sovereignty they have organized Static I and State governments, and been re Jeeived as such States into the Union and subject to the Constitution of the United Status and the laws of Cou gresii made in pursuance thereof each State, as long as the people thereof have observed their allegiance to the General Government, has been free and independent.

It must be remembered that these |cople are now on their good behavior.
