Mr. ZOLLICOFFER. I do not say that it differs from what the gentleman has said in the last few minutes; but there does seem to me to be some difference between it and the non-inter- vention banner which he so boldly flaunted on yesterday. Mr. STEPHENS. Not at all, sir. Permit me to repeat just here that my original view was, j that Congress should not interfere or intervene j against us; that Congress should leave the com- mon territory free and open to colonization by | all alike. This was wha...t I desired; this is what ■we have now got. But when that speech was | made, this hope was a foregone conclusion; the ; hand of Congress against us could not be stayed. None of us expected, if the [territory should be acquired, that intervention againstus by Congress in some way or other could be prevented. We were voted down. I, however, was still willing, as an alternative, to compromise on the old prin- ciple of division; but if I could not get even that, then my last alternative was not to take the ter- ritory.
