Mr. TRUMBULL. I have brought the Sen ator, then, to the admission that he himself would do the same thing in the hypothetical case which I suppose that Mr. SHELLABARGER said he would do, except that when I put the question to him how long he wold keep SCarolina out, instead of saying, as Mr. SHELLA BARGER did, “forever,” be said he would never admit her. It is the difference between never doing a thing, and not doing it forever. He says m case will not happen. I hope it will not. Iyhope the State of SCarolina W111 not always be disloyal. I hope the State of Georgia will not always be disloyal and send the VEEP of the rebellion here as one of its Senators. But, sir, he wants to know if because the State of SCarolina is disloyal, Tennessee is to be ke t out. No, sir, not at all. I never heard anybody say so. I do not. know that anybody thinks so, and I do not believe Lees. I that anybody does unless it is the Senfrom Connecticut and those who think with him. He is talking about keeing Tennessee out. I know of no one who wishes to keep Tennessee out i of the Union after she is in condition to be admitted into the Union; and we are now taking steps to admit Tennessee. I s eakinaccurately when I speak of “ admit ting ennessee into the Union.” The Senfrom Connecticut and the Senfrom Nevada have that idea in their heads, and put so many questions about admitting States into the Union at really theyhave got me to use that form of expression when I do not want any law to admit any of these States into the Unionbut I do want the action of both Houses of Congress recognizing a government in SCarolina and in Tennessee which is loyal to the country and legitimately authorized to have representation here. I did not rise with the view of making a speech but simply to press one point; and when Iwas interrupted I was trying to show that somebody, afier the State government was usurped and overthrown, must decide when a new State government is set up which is authorized to be rep presented. Now, let me illustrate this in the form ofinterrogation. I submit to the Senfrom Kentucky if the rebel Legislature of tennessee had any authorit to send Senators to this body? I do not ask him to reply for I know what he would an.
