Mr. President, the first and second sec tions of this ordinance are scarcely less ob jectionable than what I have been'consider- 'log. The report of the committee informs jus, that the offences therein enumerated, and which the committee calls sedition, were in 4he act of 1177, called misprision of treason. It is, therefore, reviving an old obsolete 'jcrime under a new and milder name. The American world, at least, has made some "progress as to these crimes of Lecse Majetty, -treason, misprision of treason, &c, since "1777. It was a great point gained for human life and liberty, that in the federal Consti tution of 1787, treason wis defined to con sist only in levying war against the United Stites, or in adhering to their enemies, giv ing them aid and comfort; a provision that .has been literally copied in the Constitution 'of the Confederate States and by an ordi nance of this body, into that oi this State . 'also. It is enough to make the blood ron cold, now, to review the history of what - were at different times denominated and ad judged treason in England, and to remember 'what hecatombs of human victims the Hue tuating state ot the law, and its pliant and corrupt administration, to favor the views of the reigning sovereign or his minions, car ried to the sea no id and the gibbet. An ex traordinary instance of treason by words. was mentioned in our discussion ol this sub . ject at the last session, where a man of note 'was put to death for declaring in a moment of irritation, on hearing of the shooting by the Kins, of bis favorite stag, that "he wish , ed the horns of the stag were in the King's belly. As Plutarch relates of Dionysius, , the tyrant, that he capitally executed a sub ject for relating that he had dreamed he kill ed the King, saying it was proof that he thought of it while awake. Sir, the fate o Sidney and Russell, and a hundred other martyrs of that very freedom, which loomed oat in the English revolution ot 1533, and assumed its full proportions in our American Constitutions a century later, will rush up oa our memories at the suggestion of this theme, and illustrate the wisdom of the Con stitutional provision. While it ocien;lv secures the government from treacherous and parricidal bands, it protects tne citizen irum that vortex of constructive and exploded treasons, which has enjulphed in bloody and premature graves so many innocent men. ."To prevent the possibility of those calami ties which result from the extension of trea on to offences of minormportance, (say Chief Justice Marshall.) that great funds mental law which defines and limits the a rious departments of our government, has Eiven a rule on the subject both to the Legis .tare and the Courts of America, which nei , ther can be permitted to transcend." With this limitation upon charges of treason, and the experience of that rational freedom es tablitbed br the Constitution of the State, came more liberal views in relation to the inferior crimes of its class. Misprision treason has entirely disappeared from the statute book of the State. It is found in that of the United States, covering only a sin offence, according to its literal meaning, that pi concealing and not disclosing and making known to the public authorities, the com mis . sioa of any. treason that may come to the knowledge ot the person charged. Sedition is found in our Revised Code, as the head inr of a particular offence, that of exciting ' stares to insurrection. In this connection.it is a salutary part of our law according with ' public sentiment, and can be executed with effect, whenever an oOenuer may be lound aMa a a a ft a mis was abundantly proved in me case oi ; Daniel Worth, and of others. This law ap ! pliee to attempts to excite rebellion in a de graded caste in our society, wholly devoid of all political power. I But among freemen, every one of whom is equal, in consultation and at the ballot-box if restraints enon the freedom of speech and of the press ms j be imposed, beyond those provided by the common law, it has never oen louna necessary to can mem into ope i ration heretofore. There seems to have been mnr I ii-nii!.ianp, in fha Auetrinm if lmt i fersoa in his inaugural address. "If there he any among as who would wish to dissolve b - - - - - - - this Union Confederacy or to change its republican ivrin, ict mem stano unuisiuroea ( ss monuments of the safety with which error 1 of opinion msy be tolerated, where reason is ! left free to combat it" I have myself been I accustomed to associate statutes of sedition I with those indictments tor seditious libel, where there were attempts to screen corrup tion, imbecility, favoritism and the insolence of office, by criminal prosecutions against persons who exposed them, and where the gallantry of Erstine, Carres, and other ad vocates at the English and Irish bar won im mortal names in wrestling with a domineer V-H fsbserf ient bench, that never forgot OLf'tyM it above the people, nor its favorites, and prevailing in the .con test. I have been accustomed to look upon them as bringing into active employment, if not producing, a vile race of parasites and sycophants, Titus Oajeses, Bedlows, &c, thronging the gates of office and patronage, -1 i r - i r n ine cnaracter oi spies anu wiormers, r ca lf to discover Meal-tub plots and Rye house plots of the most direful import, and to ac cuse any man, whom it might be desirable to hunt down and destroy. You propose by the first section of this ordinance, to create nine indictable offences, every one of which is described in a manner so loose and unde fined, as to hold out the greatest temptations to malignant accusers, anu to produce neigh borhood strifes without end. I shall not detain the Convention by a recital of them. Their counterpart may be found in the mis- vernment, which Blackstone says may be br speaking or writing against them, curs ing or wishing him ill, giving out scanda lous stories concerning him, or doing any thing that may tend to lessen him in the es teem of his subjects, may weaken his gov ernment or may raise jealousies between him and his people." Under this it has been at different times held indictable, to sar of the King that he had a cold, at a time when his services were important in the fieldalso to say of him falsely, that he la bored under mental derangement or to drink to the pious memory of a traitor, or or a clergyman to absolve persons at the gallows who there persist in the treasons for which they die, &c. 4 lilac k. Com. 123. Sir, the whole doctrine is unsuited to our free institutions. It is founded on the sup position, that force, compulsion, is the only means of upholding government, even to excite love inr it and that public opinion is nothing, and must be subordinated by it. We have sufficient law now to afford alf the security needed, if, as no one doubts, pub lic sentiment is with us, and will enable us to enforce it and if it is not, no new stat utory enactment will be enforced. The com mon law of riot, rout, unlawful assembly, and conspiracy, enable you to take hold of any parties whose guilt may De dangerous ; ana tne aocmne oi seuiuous liuei is me same now that it was in 1802 when Harry l-rosswell was convicted of a libel on Presi dent Jefferson except that the truth of the matter published is a defence. Uver and above this, every section of the State is ac cessible on brief notice by Railroad, and the military power may be exerted with ef fect on the first appearance of insurrec tion. But. Sir, the whole scope of this ordi nance is to give proper defence and protec tion to the Confederate States. There are few expletives thrown in, in which the State is mentioned, but they seem only de signed to fill out a sentence, and give round ness to a pertou. now wnayousinesa is u of ours to pass a law to punish sedition a- gainst the Confederate States anymore than . a i a aw ; . - a punisn tne roooery oi us ireasury or posi- ofice, or to punish piracy against its ships on the sea i , It there is to be such a crime as sedition against that government, ought it not to be a general crime, punishable in Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky and other States? And has not tliat government a Congress now in session lr the third or fourth time ? Is it supposed that we are wiser than they and are to usurp their func-j tions; it that congress has the same pro pensity to copy that prevails here, they nerd only turn to the administration of the elder Adams, and re-enact the sedition law of that day, referred to by the gentleman from Richmond, (Mr. Leak.) It is a ve-y well drawn statute, much better than this ordi nance. 1 say this without disrespect to the committee, for thy only profess to copy from the act of 1777. Ihe gentleman from Richmond made a slight error in supposing this was the name with the sedition law of 1793. It is infinitely worse. Jmlge Chase had decided and correctly too, that there was no law oi me cnueu states except what was enacted by statute, and therefore your diplomatic correspondence. Look at that there was no law of libel to protect its! your stone fleet. But let that pass. Who, officers from the President downward against j I ask, amonz all the millions of ihi country, any defamation whatever. That act was or even in this House or Senate, or the Ad consequently passed to punish by indictment ministration itself, in the midst of the dead libellous publications against them, which calm or stolid security which seems now to would be indictable if made against other persons by the common law allowing, how ever, the truth to be given in evidence as a defence. Yet, so distasteful was it to the public mind, and so odious did it render its authors, that after the lapse of half a centu ry, when all other party issues ot that time are forgotten, it still remains in public re collection. But as a restriction on liberty, the liberty of the press snd of speech, it wss ss nothing compared with this act, which has been exhumed from the oblivion in which it has lain for eighty-odd years, and which it is proposed to revivify, just as it was on the day of its first enactment. At that time the doctrine prevailed here as well as io the northern country, of" the greater the truth the greater the libel." So that if any man ' shall publish and deliberately speak or write against our public defence, (this is one of the offences it creates) no matter how true may be the matter written or spoketr, such as that a commanding General fled ia glorionily from a field of battle, when victo ry was within his grasp, or that from his in competency be sacrificed half his command without any conceivable object, although it may be every -word true, the party who wrote or spoke thai, most be convicted. If the Congress of the Confederate States desires to try over again the. experiment of a Sedition Law of 1798, or to go back be yond it, and re-copy old penal statutes made to put down Papacy, or uphold the preroga tives of royalty, the way it perfectly epen to them. But let us not render ourselves a subiect of merriment, by taking better care of that government than it takes of itself. .A..?a.a . 1.1 1! xei us not stigmatize pur peopie oy singling them out as peculiar subjects for the opera tion of laws of this kind. Let us not give just cause of offence to them, by showing a distrust ot that elevated patriotism and una- nimiiy wun wnicn mey are sustaining ineir country in this her hour of trial. Let us a bandon this measure as impolitic, as it is in? ulting, oppressive and unjust. I ask the ...L . I " a - ' l . " yeas and nays on the question of its indefi nite postponement. SPEECH OF MR. VALLANDIGHAM OF OHIO. TBS MASON AND SLIDELL AFFAIR. We get from our Northern advices some interesting news ot the Congress at Wash ington. The debate on the war, which had occupied the body since its re-assembling, had turned on the Mason-slideU affair, which had been brought up by the President communicating to Congress the official pa pers in the matter. Pending Affairs, Mr. Vallandigham, ot Ohio, made a lurcible and stirring speech, of which we give a summa ry : v Mr. Vallandigham said : I avail myself, sir, of this the earliest opportunity offered to express my utter and strong condemnation, as one of the representatives of the people, of the act of the administration in surrender ing up Messrs. Mason and Slidell to ihe British Government.. For six weeks, sir, they were held in close custody as traitors of the United State, by order of the Secre tary of State, and with the approval and ap pla'use of the press, of the public men, of the Navy Department, of this House, and of the people of the United States, with a full knowledge of the manner and nil the circum stances of their capture ; and yet. in six days after the imperious and peremptory demand of Great Britain, they were abjectly surren dered upon the mere rumor even of the ap proach of a hostile fleet, and thus, for. the first time in our national history, have we strutted insolently into a quarrel without right, and then basely crept out of it without honor; and thus fur the firt time has the A merican eagle been made to cower before the British lio. Sir, a vasal, or fet-ered and terror-strick en press, or servile and sycophantic politi cian, in this House or out of it, may applaud the act. and fawn and flatter, and lick the hand which has smitten down our honor into the dust. But the people, now or hereafter, will demand a terrible reckoning for this most unmanly surrender. But 1 do ii"t trust myselt to speak of it now as I propose some day to speak. I rose only to put on record my emphatic protest against it. and to express my deep conviction thai the very war which the other day might have been a voided by combined wisdom and firmness is now inevitable. Sir, the surrender may be no fault of the Secretary of State, but he has sown, I fear, the dragon's teeth by thi, his fatal dispatch, end armed war will spring from it. In the name of God, sir, what does England want with Mason and Slidell? It was a surrender of the claim of the right to seize them on board her ships, under her flag, that she de manded, and yet this is the very thing that Mr. Seward pertinaciously refuses, and lie only condemns Captain Wilkes because he did not enforce this asserted right with greater severity against the offending neutral ship. Why, sir, upon the principle of this dinpatch, it s merchant vessel, as at first in tended, had been employed to carry thee men out from Fort Warren to England, she might tM-dy have bren arrstel on the high seas and tney draped Irotn her deck, provid ed only she were forthwith brought back to the port of titiun for confUcariun. But mure than this, EtuUnd needs, I do not say wants, a war, but she must and will hve it, and this administration ha acted from the beginning as if it was iheir purpose to oblige her io it to the utm-mt. Louk into rest over an, has renectea lor a moment up on the kignificancy of the events of the pass ing hour I A British man-of-war bears to the shores ol England, there to be received in triumph and with shouts of exultation as martyrs and heroes, and with the gusto of the people of Logland, and as the proteges ol their minis tera, the very men who, but for the rash act of Captain Wilkes and the still more rash endorsement ol the administration and the country, would six weeks agohsve been qui etly landed from a private ship in quiet se curity as rebels and refufces. All Europe echoes now with their names. All Europe will rise up to do them honor, and yet you surrendered them, did you, to escspe 'the recognition byang!and of the Confederate States, and your Secretary ol State, with christian resignation or stoic philosophy, calmly rejoices that the effectual check upon, and waning proportions of, the insurrection, as well as the comparative unimportance of the persons concerned, happily enables the sdmimstration, alter six weeks ot expert ment, to cheerfully liberate them, and thus to remove the tertenmi cauii bull. Sir, rive me leave to say that the moment they (Mason and Slidell) stepped upon the deck of a British man of-war, your prisoners or State, whom the other day foe would have consigned to felon's cells; became in deed the envoys aod embassadors of a recog nized independent State ; and I predict here to-day, ia spite of this deep national bumilia tinn. or rather oerhans because of it. and in I I " l. anfte. too. of the surrender, without protest. of the Monroe doctrine, for forty year the! cherished and croud policy of this Govern- ment. in less than three months you will De . I at war with Great Uritain, or else, in me wai otaie, returning irom a yisu io a neigu roeantime, will have basely submitted to the bor, found that during their absence some recognition of the Confederate States and Federal troops had encamped on the planta- nf the blockade i and it at war then with hearts unstruneand hands un- nerved by this very surrender. Courage! courage courage! sir, is the best and first of peace-makers. I know sir. that lik. all other simi-1 lar predictions for some years past, in regard ' f . tr ' - II a I to our puoiic anairs, you win ireai una uc also with scoffing and incredulity ; but, nev- -rthelea. I nut it on record here to-dav. "The prudent man fore see th the evil and w i - . I hideth himself, but the simple pass on and are punished." STIRRING PROCLAMATION FROM GEN. BRAGG. Gen.
