Mr. STEVENS. Well, let him walk ten miles, instead of goine 2 or 3000 South, and he will find), as I said, 3 or 400 inmates, whom, if he wishes to for give and enfranchise, he will find at present a little restrained of their rights. I he have dune nothing but err. There is no bloo upon their bands; they have only erred in commit ting such little acts as arson and larceny. Let him go to one of those corridors and cause it to be opened and they will flock around him, and he will see men who are not half as bloody and have not committed half as many crimes as the rebels whom he wishes to see immediately admitted here. Now, sir, for my partI am willing they shall come in when they are ready. Do not, I pray you, admit those who have slaughtered half a million of our countrymen until their clothes are dried, and until they are reclnd. I do not wish to sit side by side with men whose garments smell of the blood of my kindred. Gentlemen seem to forget the scenes that were enacted here years ago. Many of you were not here. But, my friendfrom Ohio [Mr. GAB FIELD ought to have kept up his reading enoug to have been familiar With the history of those days, when the men that you propose to admit occupied the other side of the House; when the mighty Toombs, with his shaggylocks, headed a gang who, with shouts of detiance on this floor, rendered this a hell of legislation. Ah, sir, it was but 6 years ago when they were here, just before they went out to join the armies of Catiline, just before they left this Hall. Those of you who were here then will remember the scene in which every southern member, encouraged by their allies, came forth in one yelling body, because a speech for freedomwas being made here; when weapons were drawn, and Barksdales bowie knife gleamed before our eyes. Would you have these men back again so soon to reenact these scenes? Wait until I am gone, I pray you. I want not to go through it again. It will be but a short time for my colleague to wait. I hope he will not at us to that test.
