Mr. KELLEY. I am not pleading for the “respectable, ” which Carlyle says means in England “those who keep a gi” it is for the poor and lowly Iplead. But would thank God if my Democratic fellow itizens of the 6th district of Pennsylvania would to the same proorlion read 2 papers as valuable, as republican, as Christian in their teaching, as the 2 I have named. I am quite sure that if such was the case it would improve the political opinions of my colleague and valued friend. “There are, ” as one of these poorsouls has written, and Iread it from his own manuscript “Thoro are over 30 benevolent. literary and civic organizations amonz them, bywhich their needy superannuated, and infirm are cared for to a large epxotsesnibti, othpeercciteynt governmentchavingnonc, or the least of colored paupers to support.” Tolerably good English for John F. Cook, whose complexion stains him with such evident inferiority to my colleague! My colleague says that the white men of this District have given evidences of patriotism, and cites the number of men who entered District regiments under the Presidents 1st call in proof of his allegation. Sir, I have one to the War Dept, day after day an night after night, to beg for the release from service, or transfer to Pennsylvania regiments, of that gentlemans constituents and my own, who, ving rushed to the DistCol without arms, ready to die in any ditch in defense of this capital, and being here were entrapped into District regiments, and whose families were suffering because the people of the District did not provide for soldiers families as those of Pennsylvania did. The gentleman compares the number of volunteers furnished by the DistCol under the 1st call, with the number furnished by Massachusetts. I ask him whether he does not now that this District have scarcely a man that belonged to it by birth or long continued residence; that she entrapped into her regiments his constituents and mine, and those of every northern member who may have happened to be here?
