Tho Hona- tor from Indiann (Mortou) had led tho Sonnto through tho first phase, and now socks to lead it in tho counter movement. 'I'he Bupreme Court of Louisiuna was part of the State Gov- ornmont, aud whon Cougross was to inquite whotbor tho Govornmont of that Stato was Ro- publican or not, the Bupreme Cowt could no more settlo it than thoe Loglslaturo could, That powor was vostod oxclusively in Congress, galn, tho quesiton was not & {udlolel ono &% all, but s HU“UCM ono, and must be determined ll);(ho political dosartment of the Government. 'Tho Supremo Court of tho Unlted Staton itscif could not sottio it, and tho decision of the Bu- prome Court of Louisiana was not on- titled to & moment's considoration. Tha Court had mnovor attomptod to_decido tho question dircotly, but all it did say In offcct was that tho L{nch Board was tho logal Boaxd, It never said whothor that Board acted honestly or corruptly. Under the Constitution tho Prosidont cannot of his own volition and without propor record from a State, dotormine that an jnsurroction oxists in a Btate, and pros coed to put it down. A court of justico could not docida a cnso botweon n Senator and himuolt ‘of 200 without arecord. Why? Bacnuso it was a court of racord, and had & soal, and cortainly the United Btates was & court_of record. Tho moro ory by telegraph to the President, *‘Como and holp ns,” was not sufllcient for his interfer- enco, Ho (Carpontor) bolieved that if the Fedoral lmurn woro withdrawn from Louisiana, Kellogg's Government would not stand, There were two quostiona involved a8 to tho passago of this bill, Iixst, ave wo power to passit? Second, tho expodioncy of pasging it. Tho Constitution provides ench State shall have a ropublican form of governmont, and one of the firat reTxlshua of a ropublican form of govm'ummlt ia that ita first oficos shall bo tillod by porsons olcoted by tho peoplo. Ho anked overy Sonntor within his hoaring it Con- gross bad ot the power to filvo the peoplo of that Btato what thoy had boon cheated of— namely, tho right to” olect their own officors, Should our Government ho ovorthrown, it would bo by thess stendy encronchments. Congresa should seo ot oll times that ench State had s republican form of governmont, aud any Honator declaring that Congross hail not the ]gum'or to interfore .now would declare to ullng? and his followora: * You can ropost tlus thing In 1870, and 1830, and in 1881 ; Cungress has no power to et it right.” If Con- gross bad no authority to iutorfero, then tho McEnory Government could set itaclf up also b; forco. Violenco was au good a title as fraud, and o littlo moro manly. _When a man skulky beneath the robes of o Foderal Judge, he has not tho manliness of one who goos out wiih sword in hand to maintain his position. Thero wns no question in his mind as to tho powor of Congress to take up the Constitution of any Stato, and deolato whotber or not it was Ropub- lican in form, The power of ‘Congress was su- promo, o bolieved tho Kellogg Govornmont wns held up by the bayonota of the United States; sustalned this hour by the traops of the United Btates, and bho wanted to know what romedy thero was for this dificulty. Tho Bupremo Court of Louisiana was in conspiracy with Kellogg, and would not inaugurate any move for reform. Tho Slato Legislaturo was in con- spiracy, and it would not do ®o; tho Govern- ‘mont would not, and tho people could not, bo- causo Fedoral bayonots were loveled nt thom. The powors of the Federal Government woro as sovoreign, oxceptos’ llmltudbimnConslimllnn, oy those of tho Czar of Russia, Look atthe probable effect of Congress snying it could do nothing in the present condition of tho Southorn Btates. Hoving just emerged from civil war, would it bo ‘wafo to say to thom: *“When you hold your clections next fall, got " in by fraud, or any way; thoro ia o potvr to pub you out™? What greator liconse conld be given to tho Inwlossness of Lhe land? That clement would say, *‘ If that is your gamo, wo will piay it," aud thoy would play it under the sanction of Congress. Such action in the present condition of some of tho Southorn States would be tho most dangerous thing that could be done. The Seuator from Indiana (Dlorton) had said: ** Pags this bill, and thore would be blood shed in Louisiana,” To said tho Republicans woro all in favor of Kellogg, and the respectable Domo- crats wore all in favor of him. If they aro, who is to cause tho bloodshed? There would be mo blood shed by a new olection. Tho Govornment could euforco it by tho army and navy, if nccossary. 1f not, this nation had bottor furl its banner and put {tw affaira in the hauds of & Recoiver, Was it - wise to adjourn this troublssome question into the troubles of a Prestdontinl election 2 1t was not probable that there would bo tho samo unanimity then that thoro was tho lnat time, for, as ho scanned tho political horizon, ho thought Lo could sco moro than one caudidnte, and it was not improbablo thnt the voto of Louisinnn might chango the whole thing, The question should be settled now and put out of tho way, a3 it was neither wise nor prudont to adjourn it. Ho wanted tho Congress of tho United States to do its du\f. and ordor nn honost election, so that the peoplo could have their choice. Mr. FREILINGHUYSEN snid he desired to speal on tho subject, but yieldod to Mr. Cameron, who moved that the Sonate proceed with the con- sideration of tho Centennial bill, Mr, THURMAN said ho also desired to apank on Louisians affairs, and hoped the Centenninl bill would go over until to-morrow. THE CENTLNNIAL BILL. Mr. Comeron’s motion to talie up the Centen- nial bill was agreed to; the pending motion boing to refer it to tho_Committco on Approprintions. Mr, THURMAN spoko against reforriug tho Dbill, and snid if it went to that committeo the understanding would be that there should be au appropriation for the colebration, and this he opposed on the ground that Cougress had no power under tho Constitution to vote money for such purposcs. Now that the poor clerks were being turned out of tho departmonts to 8avo a fow thousaud dollars, nnd he saw thom regularly, mon and women, with tears in their oyds, not knowing whers they were to got thoir next meal, it was no time for Cougress to em- bark in an cnterprise like this, which would af- ford a littlo show to Philadelphia. Mr. FRELINGUUYSEN moved to amond the motion to refer, 80 08 Lo instinet the Committee to roport a bill making on approprintion of a sufliciont amount of money, not to excced $3,000,000, to defray the oxpovses of tho Amori- van Contenninl Exhibition at Philadelphin, Mr, BARGENT moved that tho Scnato ad- journ, ‘Mr. CAMERON sgaid that to-morrow ho would aglt the Sonata to romain insession and finishthe Coateuninl bill, Alr, II'CHCOCK submitted an amendment to tho Fortification Appropriation bill, appropri- atitg 850,000 for o post on the North Forkof the T.oup River, Nebraska.
