Mr. WADE. I do not believe that we can do the business that is most pressing before us sooner than by Monday at 12 o’clock. There are 2 bills that I am charged with, which I have been anxious to get up for more than 6 weeks: the one for the admission of the State of Colorado, and the other for the admission of Nebraska. The Senators elected from those States are here. the admission of a State is as important business as any other. When a State has prepared to come into the Union on our own invitation, and has sent her representatives here from a great distance, we ought not to snub them and send them back without the question being acted upon. I hope, sir, that no childish impatience will impel us to adjourn, leaving this important business undone. I am as anxious to go as anybody else; but I would rather stay here than to leave the most important business undone or hurry it through without its being done as well as it can be done. My better opinion is that we ought not to adjourn at all. That was the almost uniform sentiment of the Senate itself 2 months a 0, that from the peculiar condition in which the country was at this time, the great council of the notion ought not to abandon its post now and surrender all all its best interests into hands that most of us believe to be hostile to them. I think, sir, we ought to act as the guardians of the country, which the people have sent u here to be, especially in the peculiar circumstances in which we are placed. When all the branches of the Government are harmonious, all acting alike, all consenting to the same great principles, we can leave the country in the guardianship of the POTUS; but there is an almost universal apprehension, as I learn from a great number of correspondents thatI have, that there is danger to the country if Congress abandons its post and leaves now. do not say there is anything in this; but Isay I cannot conceal from myself the fact that from the great number of letters I receive from intelli gent sources all over the country, there is a universal aprehension that something is to take place etriuiental to the country when ever we leave our posts, for which reason my counsel is not to leave our posts at all; but if the Senate willadjourn, let us postponcitto such a time that we can get through with the most important business on hand. I want sufficient time to get through with all the business that I am charged with. It is buts little; but I deem it as important as anything else. The financial business is nearly brought to a close, we are told. That is important, and the most important perhaps of any business; but it is not all the business of the Senate and other committees ought to be consulted about the business that belongs to them, and which is of interest, as well as the ComFinance. We have been at work on their business for a long time to the exclusion of almost everything else; and because they are almost through I do not think that is a reason why we should abandon everythiuo else. I hope, at all events, that we shall not fix a day short of Monday next.
