Mr. Bayard then reietrea to the lu.e m -ssage of tlie President and said there was not one word in it abou Southern affairs. Cue Department Oi Justice hud its agents down there, gathering information for the guid nin e of that Department, yet from that Department there was not one word or suggestion as to these alleg ei wrongs. If these things existed there it w-as remarkable that the President of 'lie United States main tained a dead silence on the subject. All this matter came from the Sena tor from Indiana, who always scent ed to have in his possession state ments hostile to I lie |n*aee of the Soiithern States,and some associates without diameter, against till* whole people of thut country. This was revolutionary. It was hut another step in the march towards the cons ilidation of power, which the people of this country tnnM see. This was tin* first time that the Senate of the United States sought t" take testimony concerning the elec tion ef members in the other House of Congress at the time these South ern people were found helpless and blee ling at the foot of ttie Senator from Indiana, mid his party,' tli.- Sena ors of nis B tear I’st side a.Mced when the time was to couie that the Southern Suites cimid be rehabilita ted.
