Mr. SAULSBURY. It is sometimes said on the other side of the Chamber that certain doctrines uttered upon this side are repudiated. Sir, I do not know that this side of the Chamber has distinctly announced any opinions through this debate. We have kept very quiet. It seems a division has been gotten upon the other side of the Chamber between what are called the radicals and the conservatives. The Democratic portion of this body have sometimes been referred to as O crating with the conservatives and as against the radicals. I think that any fair and impartial observer of what transpires here will bear testimony to the truth of what I now say. We have taken no sides in this quarrel. It is a division among the gentlemen themselves. They exercised what they supposed to be and what was, if they believed the bill to be a constitutional bill, the constitutional right of passing what was called the Freedmens Bureau bill. The POTUS in returning it with his objections exercised a perfectly constitutional right. Because he did so there was a very considerable manifestatian of disapprobation of his action. When his veto message came in, the Democratic portion of this Chamber voted upon that subject pre.cisely as they voted be ore. But will my red ical friends as they seem to glory in the appellation of radicals allow me to make one remark? In the great issue which they have made upon the President, and not the President upon them, they are retty much in the situation, in my opinion, otpthe crazy man who got on the railroad track in the far West, where they had never before seen a car. It being announced that the cars would run on a certain day he went out and placed himself near a station, and as the train came along threw up his hat and his arms. The engineer, supposin that something was on the track, stoppedt e train and inquired what was the matter. The man replie, “ I want you to know, sir, that I, after having fought the lions of Bashan, am not going to be scared by a certain kind of hen coop set up on wheels.” [laughter] Sir, AndrewJohnson has laid the track, the car is in motion, and if our rad ical friends do not want to get run over they had better get off the track.
