Mr. HOGAN. That I did not hear said. But I think it was altogether dependent n on circumstances whether the pistol was to be red at all. Colonel Grigsby said that he did not intend to use it on that occasion; he had it there, and if anybody had assailed him personally for trying to preserve the rights between the arties, then only would he probably have use it. The other gentleman who was there, and who is implicated, did not know anything about the intended assault, did not come here, and did not go there because of any knowledge that he had upon the subject. But having some days before made some kind of arrangement with Mr. Rousseau, to go with him to NewYork, he had passed out into the rotunda before him. It Mr. Rousseau passed by him suddenly; hespoke to him, but Mr. Rousseau did not notice what he said. Not knowing whether he was sick, or what was the matter with him, he followed him out of the door. And that was all his connection with the matter. 2 of these gentlemen state explicit] that only in case there was interference with the contending parties by outsiders, only in case outsiders interfered with either of them, they did not care which, would they have taken part in the fray, and neither of them would have used their pistols under an circumstances, unless they themselves ha been as sailed for the prevention of anybody from in tei J'ering with either of the contending parties. Now, why should those 3 gentlemen be singled out and brought here to the bar of the House by a resolution of this committee, in order to answer for such a crime as this? Why should they be brought here upon their own solc testimony, constrained and forced testimony, being brought before that committee to testify in reference to the facts, and by thus testifying, being made to implicate themselves as having deadly weapons upon their persons, weapons which they were in the habit of carrying, which they usually carried? One of them said his pistol had not been out of his pocket that he knew of for a year. And the other said that he did not know when he had been without his, unless by mere accident when he was changing his clothes he failed to take his pistol out of his pocket and left it at home. Now, I contend we have no right to impli cute thcse gentlemen at all; we hav'e no right at all to bring them u here. They ought not to have been include at all in the report of the committee, other than as havin given testimony before the committee. why did not the committee include in their report Senator SAULSBURY, who was there by accident? Why did not they include ten or 20 other persons, as the case may be, who were present? But they were not known. If they had known them and had brought them before the committee, they might have made them implicate themselves and then have brought them before the bar of the House; and thus have every body who, by the merestaccident inthe world, happened to be in the rotunda that day gain an immortality in this country through the report of this committee, which is to he placed upon the records of this House, to stand there as long as our Republic shall endure. Sir, I think it is not right to bring these gentlemen into a false and unfortunate position; to brin them here as though they were personally implicated in this matter; to bring them here against their will, without their knowledge, and condemn them without a hearin.
