GARFIELD. I wish to say that I have made no reference whatever to Massachusetts ; have never in my life intimated, by any word I have uttered, that Massachusetts was derelict of duty, for, if I love any State in the Union better than my own, it is Massachusetts ; and I trust the gentleman from Massachusetts will not do me the wrong of intimat ing that I intentionally or unintentionally said any thing upon this floor disrespectful to that State. What I said in my closing remarks before the House..., when this subject was last up, and which have been referred to this morning and criticised, I believe to be true. The same thing has been declared in higher places than mine, and we have got to meet it. It is courageous to meet it, and cowardly not to meet it. 332 ENROLMEN 7 ! OF TROOPS AND Mr. BOUTWELL. I judge no man, but I was able to connect the observations made upon one occasion with those made upon another. The gentleman recollects the remark made the previous day, which was an expression of his opinion of the effect of a certain vote given, in which vote the delegation from Massachusetts participated ; and I recollect that to day he called the special attention of this House and of the country to the previous history of Massachu setts, and to her Conscription Act of 1693.
