everal new devices for saving the Union. Mr. John Sherman, of Ohio, suggested a faithful observance, on all hands, of the requirements and compromises of the Constitution, with an immediate division of the territories into embryo States, with a view to their prompt admission into the Union. Mr. John Cochrane, of New York, revived the old scheme of dividing the territories between Free and Slave Labor on the line of 36° 30′. Mr. English, of Indiana, proposed substantially the same thing. Mr. Noell, of Missouri, proposed an abolition of the office of President of the United States, and a division of the Union into three districts, each to elect one member of an Executive Council, to which the functions of President should be intrusted. He suggested, moreover, a restoration of the equilibrium between the Free and Slave States, by a division of several of the latter into two or more States each. Mr. Thomas C.

Next winter, Mr. Henderson, Dec. 19 in the Senate, and Mr. Noell, Dec. 15. in the House. submitted bills of similar tenor, providing for compensated emancipation in Missouri alone. Each encountered a bitter opposition from the Democratic and most of the Border-State Members ; but Mr. Noell's finally passed Jan. 6, 1863. the House — Yeas 73; Nays 45. The Senate acted on Mr. Henderson's bill, which provided only for very Gradual Emancipation — he declaring that if Congress should offer his State $10,000,000 for an act of Immediate Abolition, he w G.

Mr. Noell. I desire to offer an amendment, and ask that it may be read for information. Mr. Covode. I cannot yield for that purpose. Mr. Noell. I ask to have the amendment read for information. Mr. Bingham I object. The previous question was Mr. Noell. I ask to have the amendment read for information. Mr. Bingham I object. The previous question was seconded and the main question ordered to be put, and under the operation thereof the resolutions were adopted.

In truth there were but two practicable and consistent courses open for adoption—either to adhere to the Constitution and abandon coercion, or to abandon the Constitution and adhere to coercion. Between these, and these alone, lay the choice. And so, at length, the theory of Mr. Stevens, while not, as in his case, candidly avowed, became the one generally accepted and acted on, though expressed, it is true, in somewhat more euphemistic language, as, for example, in that which fell from Mr. Noell, of Missouri, during the debate on this bill. * * * * we cannot afford, while the nation is trembling upon the brink of destruction, to split hairs on technical constitutional points. If I had power I would save the nation's life by the exercise of all powers necessary to the result.

The House then resumed the consideration of Mr. Wilson's resolution, that the Military Committee be instructed to report a bill enacting an additional article of war, for the government of the army, prohibiting any officer from using the forces under his command in returning fugitive slaves.

They proposed to take from the enemy the instruments of war, without which they could not carry on the rebels on six months longer. Mr. Noell, (rep.,) of Mo., wished to make a few remarks. Mr. Elliot--That gentleman being a member of the select committee who reported the bill — yielded the floor; but. Mr. Killinger, (rep.,) of Pa., objected to further debate, inasmuch as he on the Lincoln platform of compensation and colonization, he was against negro worship and negro legislation per se. He was opposed to negroes swarming in Pennsylvania, and protested against their being supported by Government liberality. Mr. Noell obtained permission to print his remarks. Mr. Elliot resumed, explaining and advocating the bills reported from the committee, and examining the pending substitutes. The House first voted on Roscoe Conkling's amendment to the third and fi
