Mr. Talbot of .South aroliiiu rose lo
a ipiestioti of personal privilege lo
correct what he said was an Uninten
tional inisreprcscnintioii of himself in
the public prints This led to a stir
ring Incident. He said that Mr. Pear
son of North Carolina had made an
unwarranted attack on the loyalty of
Ills stale, which lie ciceiarcil was as
loyal as any state in the union. Mr. '
Pearson had said that North Carolina !
Iiait followed south I'm oil im out of
the union, und had got whipped along
with the Palmetto state. j
"In ti joeuhii way, Mr Spcukci,"
continued Mr Talbfit, "I declared that ;
wc were not whipp'il ti t. had worn j
ourselves out Irving to whip tin other
fellows. In the bent of the moment," i
lie continued, 'ami in pulhively, I
said that South Caroliuu was mil j
ashamed of the part she took in il
tlr.it she was proud of it. ami that I
for one indorsed secession then. I
thought we were right; 1 think so yd,
and that under the same circum
stances, surrounded by thu same con
ditions, thai I would do the same
thing again. Now. Mr. Speaker I re
peat it."
"He has said that In has repeat.'d
thu statement that under certain cir
cumstances In believed in secession,
i propose now to offer u resolution of
censure," put m Mr. ISarrctt of Massa
chusetts. 15y this time the excite ncitt on the
floor was intense.
Mr. Crisp said that he had never
known an instance when a member
was called to order and a motion was
made that lie beallnwcd lo explain his
utterances that such a motion was not
considered. To this Mr Ilarrett re
plied that he hud no objection to the
gentleman from South Carolina ex
plaining at the pioper time his state
ment: thut the gentleman, having
taken an oath to sustain I lie constitu
tion of the I uitcd States said he
would, under certain ciriiiustance, at
tempt to overthrow and humiliate tlie
government.
There was morn parlitnentary spar
ring between Mr. Crisp and Mr. Ilar
rett, during which the excitement
gradually rose. The Speaker llimlly
cut tlie mutter short by saying that if
the House was not satisfied with Mr.
Talbot's explanation the rcsolullom
might be offered. The Speaker de
cided that Mr. Crisp's motion was in
order.
"I take It for granted." said Mr.
Dingley. rising, "that the lloiist) does
not intend to vole on a resolution of
ccnsitr" without according the gentle
man from South Caioliua un opporuu
ity to explain."
These words won the applause of
the Democratic, side.
Mr. Talbot availed himself of the
opportunity and explained that hj
had risen to correct a mlsicprescnta
tioti. He had no idea that the press
intended to misrepieseiit him inten
tionally. South Carolina, he pro
ceeded, was us loyal and as true to the
I'nlon us any State in the Hnion. The
circumstances under which she se
ceded could not exist again ami he
was gliu' of it. (Democratic applause).
Mr. Ilarrcttot Massachusetts jumped
up ut these words ami asked that the
words be taken down.
Several members appealed to him
not to do so and the speaker asked
Mr. liariett if he insisted upon tlie
demand.
Mr. Harrett seemed to hesitate when
Mr. Talbot again got on his feet ami
declared in a loud voice that he was
willing to have his words taken down.
"I will stand by them, said lie.
These words seemed to clinch Mr.
I'arrott's resolve, and Mr. Ilarrett re
plied to the speaker with feeling:
"cs. I insist. 1 want to see if u
member can violate his oath in this
fashion.'
The chair understood that the gen
tleman from South Carolina was only
icpeatliig what he hail said on a for
mer occasion," stiul Speaker Iteed.
Mr. Ilarrett replied that in that case
h had a point of order to submit. Mr.
Crisp, the Deiuocralle leader, how
ever, at this point crowdud into the
arena and moved thut Mr. Talbot bo
permitted to explain. Tlie words
