A Big Blow At The Surplus Contd From First Page
The debate centers on a Mississippi dispute over a constitutional resolution regarding Aberdeen and the treatment of Henry Faunce. Senators discuss hanging in effigy, federal authority, and protection of citizens rights. Emphasis on Jefferson Davis and the Civil War legacy colors the rhetoric, with calls to uphold constitutional rights and skepticism toward federal intervention. The discussion touches on Attorney General actions and potential amendments, then adjourns after the session and related votes.
