to have had several thousand arrests, 235; never has any
Government been so humane, so just, so merciful, 235;
the value of a Government heretofore consisted in the
guardianship it afforded to the individual liberty of the
citizen, 235; prison door open to all arrested on sus-
picion if they will take the oath, 286; soldiers sent to
every voting place in the two lower counties of Dela-
ware at the last election, 236; it is said men ought not
only to have been arrested and imprisoned, but hung or
shot, 236; explanation, 236; exercise of this power re-
gretted, 236; the President has asserted and claimed
the right to dispense with the law requiring the habeas
corpus to issue, 236; judiciary powerless for redress, 287;
can a government be free with the judiciary set at de-
flance? 287; we cannot afford these arrests, 237; if the
writ is suspended, there is no right to make these ar-
rests, 237; point to the clause of the Constitution or the
law that authorizes officials to make arrests, 288; a ques-
tion proposed, 238; is the habeas corpus used only for
the purpose of inquiring whether the process was legal?
238; in some cases the guilt or innocence may be in-
quired into, 238; does the suspension of the writ author-
ize the President to arrest and imprison a man? 239;
what if certain persons are arrested in Delaware? 239;
willing to trust these affairs to the President, 240; loy-
alty must be to an administration and not to a govern-
ment, 240; the safety of the republic is the supreme law,
240; supposing the intention of the President is honest,
therefore you are not to question his acts, 240; is the
right to repeal a law an executive power? 241; the
President and all men who do these acts are trespass-
ers, 241; "away with this nonsense that slavery has been
the cause of the war," 241; yeas and nays on the resolu-
tion, 241.

In the House, a bill to indemnify the President and
other persons for suspending the privilege of the writ of
habeas corpus, &c., considered, 241; the President had
the authority by law, 241; the majority are prepared to
pass this bill now, 242; we must vindicate him now or
leave him to be persecuted as soon as he retires from
office, 242; sections of the bill, 242; bill explained, 242;
a bill of indemnity does not necessarily deprive a party
of his civil remedy, 242; the bill is drawn according to
the English precedents, 242; yeas and nays on the bill,
243; protest of certain members, 243.

In the Senate, a motion to strike out the third section
of their bill to discharge State prisoners, and to author-
ize the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus, consid
ered, 244; the section, 244; this legislation an improper
interference with the duties and powers of the executive
office, 244; power of the President, 244; the most im-
proper appeals are made to the ignorant to alarm their
fears on this subject, 245; two objections to the section,
245; nothing to show the power to suspend the writ of
habeas corpus is a legislative power, 246; whose duty is
it to preserve the Government, protect the Constitution,
and execute the laws? 246; Congress alone has the power,
246; the English Parliament alone can suspend it, 247;
the hypothesis of the power in the President is an as-
sumption, 247; on what is the right to arrest based?
247; examination of Mr. Binney's views, 247; no bill
should be passed and sent to the President for approval
which implied that his decision relative to the suspen-
sion was wrong, 248; propositions before the Senate,
248; a person sued should be allowed to remove the
case to the U. S. Circuit Court, 248; what is the object
of getting a case into the Circuit Court? 249.

A substitute for the House bill offered, 249; referred
and reported in place of the House bill, 249; amend-
ments offered, 249; effect of the amendments, 249; Mar-

shall on this power of removal of causes, 250; crimes
committed against the States cannot be transferred to U.
S. courts, 250; the governors of States only have power
to pardon for offences against the criminal codes of
States, 250; statement of Chief Justice Marshall, 250;
this is the entire destruction of the powers of the States
as regards their criminal jurisdiction, 250; substitute se-
cepted, 250; no precedent, 250; copy of the act of 1815,
251; case already provided for, under right of appeal,
251; nothing alarming in the provision, 251; this right
of transfer is restricted to one of the parties and denied
to the other, 251; bill ordered to a third reading, 251;
nothing in the bill that does aught than advance us to-
ward a desperate exercise of power, 252; bill passed and
sent to the House, 232; yeas and nays on its passage,
252.

Considered in the House, 252; the bill has no parallel
in the history of this or any other people, 252; this bill
goes beyond the principle of the celebrated Force bill
of 1833, 252; unheard of and most monstrous provisions,
258; House refuse to concur, 258.

Committee of conference appointed, 253; report, 253;
report considered in the Senate, 258; if the legislature
suspends the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus,
either the judicial or the ministerial officer shall apply
the law to the exigency, 253; duty of the executive to
see every law faithfully execnted, 253; what is the
privilege of the writ? 258; who shall suspend it? 258;
further debate, 254; report concurred in, 255; yeas and
nays, 255; the bill, 255.

In the Senate, the bill to discharge State prisoners
further considered, 256; amendments offered, 256; pre-
cept to be issued by the President, 257; amendments
explained, 257; delegation of power to the President,
257; opposed, 258; bill passed, 258; yeas and nays, 253;
laid aside in the House, 258.

In the Senate, a resolution of inquiry relative to the
presence of armed soldiers at the polls in Delaware con-
sidered, 258; affairs at the polls, 259; the information
desired, 259; motion to refer to the committee on mili-
tary affairs, 259; further debate, 260.

In the House, the appropriation bill considered, 260;
no warrant in the Constitution for the admission of
West Virginia, 260; reasons, 260; are not the seceded
States still members of the Union? 260; the ordinances
of secession took them out, 260; how then levy a tax on
them? 260; as a war measure, 260; we are to treat
them simply as provinces to be conquered, 261; are these
people now citizens of the United States, or are they an
independent nation? 261; belligerents, 261; right to treat
them as we would any conquered provinces, 261; further
remarks, 262; duty of the Government to protect loyal
citizens in seceded States, 262; no authority in the Con-
stitution for the appointment of military governors, 263;
object of the present bill to enforce the collection of a
tax in the disaffected States, 263; upon what ground,
268; the authority of the National Government binds
and covers every inch of the national domain, 263; issue
of the war depends on the border States, 264; cannot
execute the Constitution in the seceding States, 264; the
idea repudiated that it is unconstitutional to annihilate
or extirpate the rebels, 264; the State belongs to the
loyal citizens if composing only a third or a fourth, 264.
In the House, resolutions relative to public affairs con-
sidered, 265.

In the House, a bill to raise additional soldiers con-
sidered, 268; substitute proposed to raise colored troops,
268; motion to refer to Committee on Military Affairs,
268; it is intended to put the African soldier on equality
with the white soldier as to the protection which the

President could afford them, 268; amendment moved,
268; what have we heard in this Hall? 269; we have
not only to conquer the rebel country, but to hold it
after it is conquered, 269; what is the reason for this
bill? 269; they are not necessary for the putting down of
this rebellion, 269; their employment will result in a
servile war, 270; you want to abolish slavery, whether
you call it the means of the end, or the end of the means,
270; right of the Government to take slaves for the
army, 270; this policy has been dictated by necessity
rather than by choice, 270; course of the administration,
270; object of this bill to make final the dissolution of
the Union, 271; proposes to vest in the President a
larger power than was ever vested by Congress in the
hands of one man, 271; financial prospect of this ques-
tion, 271; the term of enlistment, 272; object of the war,
272; bill as it passed, 272; yeas and nays, 273; laid aside
in the Senate as already provided for, 273.

In the Senate, the bill for enrolling and drafting the
militia considered, 278; puts the militia of the States
under the control of the President, 273; motion to strike
out, 273; no bill of such fearful import ever introduced
before Congress, 278; does not trench in any way on
the provisions of the Constitution, 274; the Constitution
makes a difference between the army and navy of the
United States and the militia of the United States, 274;
the power which it is proposed to confer on the Presi-
dent is merely to go into force antecedent to these mill-
tiamen becoming a portion of the army, 275; the pro-
visions that when drafted a man shall be subject to the
articles of war, 275; precedents, 275; other precedents
275; a prevailing opinion that this war is not being
waged for the maintenance of the Constitution and the
Union, 276; opinion of Judge Story, 276; the case re-
ferred to, 297; opinion of Judge Washington, 299;
opinion of Justice Johnson, 279; reasons for the pas
sage of the bill, 278; other amendments offered, 279;
bill passed, 279.

Same bill considered in the House, 279; House asked
to pass it without amendment, 279; chief objections, 279;
amendments proposed, 280; further objections, 280;
turns the militia into a regular army, 280; interferes
with the personal liberty of the citizen, 281; will this
bill increase the efficiency of the national forces? 281;
our fathers were jealous of the power of an overshadow-
ing army, 281; no power to force soldiers into the army
but by means of the militia organizations, 281; subjects
the entire militia to be brought into service at the plea-
sure of the President, 282; why is this measure called
for at this time? 282; a confession of incompetency to
manage this stupendous war, 282; its principles subver-
sive of the Constitution, 282; the necessity is upon us to
pass a bill of this character, 282; what power has this
Government over the militia? 283; look at the provisions
of this bill, 283; the constitutional power of the Gov-
ernment to raise armies, 283; let Congress retain some
power over the army, 284; a surrender by Congress
of the sovereignty of the States, 284; it is a beneficent
and a benevolent bill, 284; its provisions, 284; $300 pro-
vision objectionable, 285; who made the necessity for
the bill? 285; a terrible bill, 285; the power of Congress
to pass it, 285; a question to this nation of life and
death, 286; the policy inaugurated December, 1861, has
been fruitless of good, 286; the negro will not save
you, 286; paper money will not save you, 286; you did
without this measure, 286; the natural result of the
policy which this Congress has pursued from very
near the commencement of the war, 286; pledges of
this Congress, 287; what has brought this mighty change?
287; what have we seen at this session? 287; why is

it that we have every man in the field that we can get
voluntarily? 287; why will the people no longer volun-
teer? 288; if we want to get back the Union how must
we do it? 288; discouragements of the country and the
remedy, 288; tweedledum and tweedledee, 289; have we
found abolition necessary for the salvation of the Union?
289; amendment offered and rejected, 289; bill passed,
289; yeas and nays, 289.

Returned to the Senate, with amendments, 290; the
amendments and the vote on them, 290.

In the Senate, a bill to provide a national currency
considered, 290; what are its objects and purposes, 290;
circulation of the existing banks to be withdrawn, 291;
case of McCulloch vs. State of. Maryland, 291; United
States has no power to tax a State institution out of ex-
istence, 291; it establishes corporations in all the States
entirely independent of any power of visitation by those
States, 291; propriety of saying that we will be respon-
sible for the ultimate redemption of those bills, 291; the
moment the war ends every man wants his money that
he has lent on stocks, 292; why did the United States
Bank go down? 292; look at this proposition, 292; you
propose to hire those people to go into these associations,
293; all there is about it, 293; examples of the operation
of the bill, 298; the advantage to the United States, 294;
illustrations, 294; it is said the Secretary will become a
dangerous person, 294; the bill ignores the great princi-
ple that a proper circulation should be convertible into
specie, 295; it will absorb the existing banking system,
295; we must go on with the war on paper money, 295;
necessity of the Government to take control of the paper
currency, 295; bill passed, 295; yeas and nays, 295; in

measure, 296; bill passed, 296; yeas and nays, 296; the
bill, 296.

In the Honse, a bill to admit West Virginia consider-

policy of the President, 805; legitimacy of the Wheeling
Government, 305; its history, 805; reasons why West
Virginia is entitled to admission, 306; the theory upon
which Virginia is represented in Congress, 806; if Vir-
ginia is already in the Union, what need of another act
to let her in? 806; it is not Virginia, but West Virginia
that is being admitted, 806; no argument can make
stronger the case than the mere statement of the ques-
tion, 806; it is said that Old Virginia no longer exists, and
therefore cannot give consent, 307; the Government at
Wheeling is not the Government of Virginia, 307; the
only question is whether the State of Virginia has con-
sented, 307; nobody has given a consent who does not
reside in the new State itself, 808; but mocking to say
the Legislature of Virginia has ever consented to this di-
vision, 308; Governor Letcher is the governor of Vir-
ginia, 808; these rebellious States are belligerents, and
the Constitution has no longer the least effect on them,
809 conduct of the President, 309; proceedings take
place in virtue of the laws of war, 809; this bill subverts
the principle that the people are the source of all power,
809; look at the facts, 809; how did the people vote?
810; who constitute the State of Virginia? is the great
point in discussion, 810; the majority of the people of
any State are not the State when they organize treason,
810; can a minority, by the treasonable act of a majority,
be stripped of their right of protection by the Federal
Government? 311; where the majority become rebels,
the minority are the State, 811; views of Mr. Madison,
811; further remarks, 311; when the storm of revolution
