Mr. NQELL. I cannot perceive that the question has any pertinence to the subject be ore us; and I have no time to address myself to mere personalities. The constitution which is Prescribed by this bill for the State of Louisiana is not republican in form; but it is the same thing which was foreshadowed by the Gentfrom Massachusetts {Mr. BANKs] in his amendment. to the military bill reported from the JtCom on Reconstruction a few days ago. I do not know whether he attempted to anticipate and steal the thunder of the gentleman who reported this bill, or whether the one who reported this bill was trying to steal the thunder of the Gentfrom Masssachusetts, {Mr. BANKs] Now, here is a bill by which the SecyWar, known to be in the interests of a partisan faction in this country, is to appoint officers for the State of Louisiana. The governor and Legislature of Louisiana are to be appointed by the Federal power. The government of Louisiana is to be set up by the power of a government to be perpetuated in the hands of such men as the SecyWar shall designate. Now, I ask what is the difference in the apointment of men for Governor and the Legisature and the appointment of the voters who shall elect those men? Allow me to designate who shall vote and to strike off from the register those who are politically opposed to me, and I will control to: action of any State in the Union. By this bill civil government is attempted to be followed up by a system of militia to be established upon the same qualifications that are Prescribed for voters. The militia of the State is to be composed of men who are qualified voters under this act. We have already had introduced here a bill for the establishment of a great “ national guard, to extend all over this country, and to exercise supreme military control. oby its provisions all other military and police organizations are to be disbanded o the members of such organizations punished. We are coming upon the times, when this country can no longer trust to the devotion of the people for its support, but like an eastern prince it must trust to the power of armed janizaries to uphold its power. The SecyWar, a man altogether loyal, is to designate the voters and the registering officers and prescribe rules and regulations for the government of the citizens of Louisiana. The Gentfrom Massachusetts described the situation of the State of Louisiana as the great heart of loyalty, through whose great rivers and chan nels of commerce the great arteries of loyalty extend into all the country. In establishing this heart of loyalty it is the object of the gentleman to make it as black as possible. In the bill under consideration it is proposed that the POTUS shall appoint these officers by and with the advice and consent of the Senate. From the threats which are thrown out here it is very clear that if the President does not appoint men who will carry out the partisan of those who desire this measure, they will then, in the language of the Gentfrom Massachusetts, BANKs, “drop legislation and proceed to consider the condition of the country.” It has been said of old, “accursed is the nation whose prince is illegitimate, ” for when the prince or Government devotes its time to keeping itself safe by armed force, there is no time to administer the Government for the good of the people. When we in a RFG attempt to Prescribe constitutions and designate portions of the people of any State who are to possess all authority in that State, we must neglect the interests of the people to uphold our authority. Not only have we Presented to us a proposition under which a fraction of the people of the South are to carry out the revolutionary scheme of subordinating the white race to the control of the negroes, but this is coupled with threats of confiscation, which clearly mean that the property of those people is to be confiscated on i. pretext of giving negroes social power, and thrown into the hands of political speculators. The Gentfrom Massachusetts said on Saturday last that the duty of Congress was embraced in 3 words liberty, emigration, cenosus. the hammer fell]
