Mr, Stevens remarked that ho offered these amendmenhs because the Secretary had said he would ajpiii t to office only those who supiport tho Freddeut. It was true (Mr. Stevrus remarked), to build a wall to protect those who support us. The Secretary was a recreant tool of a recreant l'resideut. Mr. Hale, (Republican) reproved Mr. Stevens and showed that C ongress has no such power of appointment. Mr. Delapo, (Republican) defended tba Secretary, who was lot a slave, and thus prevented from rpewking his sentiments. Dare he not have an opinion of his own ?
