Mr. ROGERS. That may all be; butbecause he was reelected it is no evidence that the people who voted for him indorsed all he has said. I have no doubtthat we have said many things on this floor and elsewhere that all our constituents do not indorse; and I will guaranty there is not a member here whose whole constituents will indorse all he has said. Will anyone undertake to say, for instance, that all the republicans of the district that send to this body the gentleman who says he regards the States late y in rebellion as conquered rov ince s will indorse that utterance of the distinguished Gentfrom Pennsylvania, [MI Srsvsus?] It is most unfair to undertake to make a great party responsible for what a few individuals may say. Because some men in the “Democratic party may be unwise, that ought not to consign the Democratic party and its great doctrines to the tomb, even if the party should happen to support some of those men for officia position. I know there are members of the other side of the House, and I can ick them out, who often support measures advocated by the distinguished Gentfrom Pennsylvania, [Mr. Srsveus] and yet disagree with him in the reasons by which he has reached his conclusions upon the subjects. I know from having had private conversations with them, and from hearing their speeches upon this floor, that this is the case. there are some of them who hold that the States are out of the Union, are dead for all political purposes; others hold that they are States in the Union, but without the right of representation. But there are some who hold with the Democratic party, that those States are entitled to immediate reresehtation upon their representatives taking the oath prescribed by the Constitution and the laws, yet they all vote together when the test comes. ow, to char cawhole part with the responsibility of the acts of Mr. allandigham, or anybody else, is uncharitable and unjust to the 1800,000 men in the North, many of whom had periled their lives in defense of their country, who voted for George B. McClellan for POTUS I say without fear of contradiction that the records of the Democratic party, from a period coeval with the formation of our Government, show that their doctrines and principles brought us to a state of pros perity une ualed in the annals of history and only when the last generations of mankind have been gathered to the silent tomb will the principles they have always maintained and advocated cease to exist and Iam not to be driven from my honest convictions of duty by any denunciations of the party to which I belong, or by calling them traitors and disunionists. Sir, AndrewJohnson is pursuing now just exactly the course he has always advocated. You cannot find in the Baltimore platform, upon which Abraham Lincoln was nominated and elected as President and AndrewJohnson as VEEP, one single word which contradicts what he now see s to out. Will on call AndrewJohnson a traitor and disunionist because he wants the union of the whole country? What was the object of the bloodyl war from which we have just emerged? why were a million men killed, maimed, and wounded upon the field of battle, and $8,000,000,000 of federal and $1,500,000,000 of State debt imposed upon the country? Why have weepin and sorrow and anguish been carried to a most ever home in this broad land? It was because we desired to perpetuate the Union which our forefathers established and handed down to us for the protection and defense of the white men and the white women of this land. Mari, Sir, AndrewJohnson wants the Union as it was. He wants the Union that was made by the fathers and sages of the times that tried mens souls. He wants the Union which was intended to be the shield of the rights of the States, and the protector and gnar ian of the rights of the Federal Government. He wants the properequilibrium preserved between the 3 coordinate branches of the Federal Government and because he will not violate ever pledge of faith that the Republican party made to the people in 1864, he is to be branded here as a tyrant and usurper, and as a violator of the“ principles which lay at the foundation of our government. I do not want to insult anyone. I do not rise for any such purpose. But when any of you rise here and charge, as you have today, the Democratic party and AndrewJohnson with being traitors to their country and sympathizers with secession, I denounce it as wickedly false. This Congress, by its acts, through this central directo of 15 that holds its secret se ssionsin this apitol, is sappin the very life blood and weakening the very onndations of this Government.
