iiiSTOKV OF T(I it CRITim; Ml. £54
to.upfiGiiiigi:.
From su Intensely interesting tlescnp
tied of ihe men and measures ot the
United States Unngress just preceding
the war, and which foreshadowed its
oomiugj by R. 8 Oos, an ex member from
Ohio, we extract the following narrative
of the failure of the Orittenden Coro pro
mise in ihe Committee of Thirty-Three .
The vote on the Crittenden proposition
wa3 well defined, hut is not so well under
stood From the frequency ot inquiries
sinoe the war as to this latter vote, the
people were eager to know upon whom to
fix the responsibility of lie failure.. It
may as well be stated that ali other pvo
pohifioas, whether of Ibe Pesos Oonveu
tiou, or the Border State project, or ihe'
measures of the committees, were com
paratively of bo moment.. for the Cffit*
ton tea proposition was the only one
which could have arrested the' struggle.
It would have received a larger vote than
any other, It would have had more effect
in moderating Southern excitement.'
Even Davis, Toombs an t ethers of the
Gulf States would have. uoaeptfid it, I
hsvij talked with Mr. Crittenden frequent
ly on this point Not only bus be con
firmed the public deoleraiions of Douglas
and Pugh, and the speech of Toombs'
himself, to Ibis effect, but be said u was
*o understood in oooiraift6B At one
time while the committee was in session,
he said ; “Mr, Toombs, will this eorapro
roiae, as a remedy for all wrongs and ap
prehensions, be acceptable to you V'
iVIr, Toombs, with some profanity replied,
“Not by a good (taal , but my Stats will
accept it, and I will follow my State to
A.nd bs did.
I will nut open tbe question whether it
was then wise to offer accommodations ,
it may not be proper to ask now whether
the millicua of young men wbosa bodies
are maimed, or whose bones are decaying
under the sod of the floutb, and the heavy
load of public debt under which we sweat
and toil, bsvu (bah compensation in
black liberty, Nor wiH I discuss whether
the blacks havs been bettered by their
precipitate freedom, passing, as so many
have, from slavery through starvation
and suffering to death There is no com
fort in the reflection that the negroes will
be exterminated, with the extermination
•of slavery. The real point Is, could not
this Union have been made permanent by
timely settlement, instead of cemented
by fraternal blood and military rule ?
By an equitable partition of territory
this was possible, We had then
1,200,000 square miles, The Orit.ten--
den proposition would have given the
North 000,000 of these square miles,
and applied the Chicago dootrines to that
quantity. It would have left the remain
ing fourth substantially, to be esrve-d out
as free or slave Otaiss, at the option of
the people when the Otatts wers admit
ted This proposition tbs radicals de
nounced Uothwithstanding the then
President elect was iu a minority Gs a
popular vote, they were determined, as
Mr Chase wrote to Portsmouth, Ohio,
from the Peace Convention, to use the
power while they had it and prevent a
settlement It. has teen elated, to nd
the Eapubiif'&us of the odium of not
averting the war when this was possible,
that the Northern members tendered to
the Southern the Crittenden Compromise,
which the South rejected. This is untrue
It was tendered by Southern Senators
and Northern Democrats to tbs Republi
cans They iu conjunction with some
b&lf dozen recusant Southern Senators,
rejected it it was voted upon but ones
I ia the Hones, wffeu it received eighty
i votes ayainst one hundred and thirteen.
; Thess eighty votes were exclusively Dem
j ocrais and Southern Americans , like
| Gilmer Var.-eand others Mr. Briggs,
j of New York, was the only one not a
i Democrat who voted for it He had been
| an old “Whig and never a Republican,
i The Republican roll, beginning with Ad
ams and ending with Woodruff, was a unit
j against if- Intermingled with them was
! cue Southern extremist, Gea._ nindman,
j who desired no settlement T&srs were
nany Southern men who aid not vote,
believing that unless the Republicans,
who were just aoreding to power, favored
if, its adoption would be a delusion.
lho pleu adopted by the Republican
Senators so defeat it was by amendment.
On the 14th and 15th January they oast
all their votes against, its being taken up.
Mr. Ciark'of New Hampshire moved to
strike Rout and insert something which
be knew would neither be Bucoenaftil nor
acceptable Tho vote on Clark’s aaiond
weut was 25 to 23; every "aye" being a
Republioan, and every "no,” exempt Ken
nedy and Crittenden, (Americans) being
Demoorats. On this occasion, six South
ern Ssnators, including Benjamin and
Wigfall, did Lot. vote. They could have
defeated Mr. Clark’s motion. In refer
ence to this voie, we have the testimony of
President Johnson, iu a speech on (he ex
pulsion of Senator Bright, Jan. 31, 1862,
to this effect.
" I sat right behind Mr? BebjNtuhi, and
I am not sure that my worthy friend (Mr.
Lathatti) was not close by when ho refused
to vote ; and 1 said to him, 1 Mr. Benja
min, why do you not vote? Why not save
this proposition, and aee if we cannot
bring the country toil?’ He ga>;e tue
ralhev an abrupt-answer, and said he
would control tus own actions without
ecmmiiing anybody else Said f, ‘Vote
and ohow yourself an honest man, ’ As
soon fi'i the vpie was taken he and others
telegraphed South, ‘-We oannoi get any
compromise.’"
Doubtless the rest id the six Senators
had the same sinister motive fur their reli
eanoe iu voting and readiness in tele
graphing But their recreancy does not
excuse the body of the Republicans. Nor
do I know that now, since the collapse of
tire rebellion, they are so anxious to bo
exeysßd. I only write the. facts of his
tory, not. to justify or oonderau.
'When the roeiilt was announced univer
sal gloom prevlTie t Petitions by. thous
ands u i oitizans weve showered jipon
Congress for its passage Had it received
a' majority only, they would have rallied
sod sustained those who-desired peaoe
and Union. One more earnest appeal was
made to the Republicans. (Jen. Cameron
answered it by moving a reconsideration.
His motion oaim> up on tbs 18th, whou he
voted against his own motion. It was
carried, however, over ibo votes of the
Republicans, although Wigfall voted with
them. When it was again up on the 2d
of March* ISGI, the Bout-hern Slates were
nearly all gone , even than it, was lost by
one vote only. But on that oooation, all
ths Democrats were for, and ail the Re
publics,ub against it The truth is, ibere
was nothing but sneers and skepticism
from the Republicans at any settlement.
They broke do wn every proposition. They
took the elements out of the Peace Con
vention before it assembled. Ben&tors
Harlan aad Chandler were especially ao
tive in preparing that Convention tor a
failure. If every Southern man and every
Northern Democrat had voted for this
proposition it would have required some
nine Republicans for the requUito two
thirds Where were they ? Dreaming
with Mr Seward of a sixty (lays' strug
gle, or arranging for the division of the
patronage of eaminietratlon. The only
Bout-barn geaatbrs who seemed against any
settlement were Iverson and Wigfall; that
no man will challenge it be will rtfer (o
the Globe, (Ist part. Thirty-fifty Con
gress, p. 27) for the testimony of Doug
las and Pugn, and to Mr. Bigler’s Banks
county speeoh, Sept. I7th, 1863. The
latter knew it to he true, when ho said
that—
“When the struggle was at Us knight
in Georgia between Robert Toombs lor
sccesslor., and A. H. Stephens against it,
bad thotie m aD ,n committoe cd Tint 1 *
taea, wbr. are now so blameless .in their
own estimation, given us their votes, or
even three of them, Stephens would have
defeated Toombs, and seoeeaion would
havo been prostrated, l heard Mr.
TaotaVm say to Mr, Douglas that the re
sult iu Georgia was staked oa the action
of the Committee of Thirteen. If it
accepted the Crittenden proposition, Ste
phens would defeat him ; if not, he would
carry tba State out by 40,000 majority.
The three votes from the Republican side
would have carried H any time; but
Union and peace in the balance against
the Chicago platform were sure to be
found wanting.’ 1
If other testimony were wanting, l
would ask a suspension of judgment until
those facts, better known to Southern
men, transpire The intercourse about to
be re-established between the seotiocs
will cumulate the proof. It will thus
bring io the light many acts showing
that, whiie President Buchanan was work
ing for the Pee.ee Conference, while Vir
ginia had bseu gained to our side with
her ablest, men, there were even then in
the Cabinet those who not only encour
aged revolt, bill foiled by letter and
speech the efforts of the Unionists at
Washington and Richmond. Those who
sought to counteract the schemes of seces
sion were themselves checkmated by men
now in authority. These letters and acts
are referred to la the recent speech of
General Blah They will be, and should
be brought iuto the sunshine, if only to
vindicate the true Union men of that dark
hour, and to condemn tjtose who have
since made so muoh pretension with so
mu oh zealotry, coupled with unexampled
cruelty and tyranny
Whether, therefore, you consult Iks
public record, or go beyond its vatl and
ocnsult those who knew tbe elements at
work in the committees and in sooial life,
one leading fact always elands stark and
bold before you • that with the aid of a
handful of secessionists per se, the whole
bsdy of the Republicans were, as Presi
dent Johnson described Senator Clark,
when ha defeated the Crittenden resold
tioaby his amendment, “aofing out their
| policy ' la tbe light of subsequent
• events, that policy was developed it was
! the destruction of slavery at the peril of
j war and disunion—or, ss P.enator DougUe
i expressed it, “a disruption of the Union,
j believing U would draw after it, as an
inevitable consequence, eivii war. servile
j insurrections, and finally the utter exist
; mi nation of slavery in all the Southern
! "ts-tos "
ii ,v kerry, of N. O', tu a letter which
he has recently written, states that »t>
oases where Confederates take the atnue
ty oath, aDU receive bis recommendsticu
tc the President for pardon, it ta presumed
that the pardon wtii be granted, and that
they are, therefore, entitled to serve si
members of tbe convention on this pre
3umptler.

GH It A TEST ROMANCE OF MODLIUV TIMES,
not excepting the most popular of Dumas’ works.
It la the story ol a youth poshed into crime by ihe
force of circumstances, and of a pure, devoted,
whole-souled woman who refused to believe in his
and nobly stood by hun till the taut. While
t has all the touching pat non of the “Tlcket-ot
leave Man, it at the same time la brim-full of the
moat extraordinary and eoul-aiirrrlng adventures
by land and sea. The hero gets out of ono diffi
culty Into another with a rapidity which ia won
derful, and which allows the most unexampled
ingenuity on the part of the highly-gifted author,
who hcldn his readers as if Hpell-bound from the
opening to the close. Old romancers who read
the manUßcript—men who have been familiar with
story reading and story-writing throughout their
lives, have been so entranced with tins truly won
derful story that they have found it Impossible to
lay il down till they have reaJ the very l*»t line.
