sion, to adopt measures to increase his force and increase its efficiency. Mr. Mark Munday said he represented the Constitutional Union party. The object of the last resolution appeared to be for the purpose of securing the inauguration of Lincoln. Some confused debate ensued, after which Mr. L. C. Cassidy moved that the committee be discharged from the consideration of the resolutions, in order to bring them before the meeting. On that motion, he yielded the floor to Mr. Munday. Mr. Munday then proceeded. He expressed the opinion that Lincoln should be constitutionally inaugurated. [Applause.] But, speaking of treason, it was as much treason to pass a Personal Liberty bill as to secede. The speaker thought that in passing Mr. Ford's resolution we were in fact declaring war on the South. He doubted the bravery or patriotism of the man who would say that he was willing to fight his Southern brethren. Should a war arise, the speaker would stand between North and S

Baker and the Abolition Governors of New York and Pennsylvania talk largely of coercion; but at the same time advocate the repeal of all Personal Liberty bills, and Packer goes so far as to urge the right of the slave-owner to retain his property during a temporary sojourn in or while passing through the State. This is what New Jersey has always permitted, and shows a return of the right spirit. Again, the Northern Democrats, who were supposed to be warping round to the coercion views of Lincoln, exhibited yesterday in the House a kinder disposition than at any time during the session; declaring their earnest desire to fight for the rights of the South, if Southern members would give them just ground to fight upon. Moreover, General Lane has received hundreds of letters from Iowa and other Northwestern States, cordially endorsing his anti-coercion speech, and saying that the Northwest has no idea of being cut off from the South and tied to New England. Evidently, the intelligent
