Mr. SAULSBURY. Mr. President, the honorable Senfrom Pennsylvania [Mr. Buck A.Ew] omitted to notice a very potential argument which has been offered in favor of the present consideration of the bill for the admission of Nebraska I allude to the argument presented by the honorable Senfrom Illinois, [Mr. YATEs] that Nebraska had sent Republican Senators here. This certainly is a very grave argument; it is worthy of the most serious consideration, and should not be lightl passed over! Nebraska, having sent Republican Senators here, their votes being necessary for the accomplishment of some purpose be. yond, as has been intimated in the course of this debate, does it not become our duty, to be consistent with ourselves, to hasten on her admission? We were told yesterday, during the course of the debate on the bill to regulate suffrage in this District, that it was advocated because the votes of the negro portion of the population of the DistCol were necessary. It has been intimated today that the votes of the Senators from Nebraska may be necessary for the accomplishment of some object that is to come in the future. ow, sir, the Senate of the U.S. ought to be consistent with itself. If it was necessary to pass the negro suffrage bill because the negro votes were needed, and therefore it was done, and it is now necessary to pass the bill for the admission of Nebraska because she has sent Republican Senators, let us be consist ent, let us have a clean record. But there is this question which suggests itself to my mind; suppose Nebraska instead of sending Republican Senators here had sent Democratic senators here, then the reason would not have applied, I apprehend, so powerfully; we should not have been addressed, F. so earnestly for the present consideration of this bill. I should like to have heard my very able friend arguments, and I now should like to hear him. I confess that I myself am unable to meet them, but I know that my friendfrom Pennsylvania can do it if he will.
