The Daily Dispatch: April 10, 1862., [Electronic resource], Andy Johnson's speech. (search)
heard him exclaim with that extraordinary finger elevated, "by the eternal, the Union, and shall be preserved!" Tariff was the pretext for disunion in 1862 and the slavery or negro question is the pretext now. How do the facts stand which come to examine them? Let us go back to the proceedings of the last Congress. What was the true phase of the times? I compromise, you remember — the Crittenden proposition — was introduced. The Southern Senators, including Benjamin, Toombs, Iverson, and a list of others, pretended that the measure passed the South would be satisfied; but they desired everything else in compromise. Senator Clark offered an amendment which he believed would be acceptable to the South. I had critically pace with the pretenders. Their pretext was only to disguise their real intention. When the vote was put on Clark's amendment — mark will — only 55 ballots were recorded. The amendment was adopted by to votes, thus defeating the original compromise.
