" On the 18th of January, Governor POWELL called up the resolution, some time before offered by him, by Which the Secretary of War was directed to transmit to the Senate the report made by a commission appointed to investigate the conduct of General PAINE while in com- mand at Paducah. A lengthy discussion followed, in which many Senators took part, the majority striving to stifle all inquiry into the doings of one of the most cruel, barbarous, and dishonest of all the bad men that were placed ...in authority during the war over the destinies of a suffering people. Governor POWELL supported his reso- lution in a speech of some length, in which he said that the report, of which he had read a newspaper account, His PUBLIC LIFE. 83 " disclosed a degree of barbarity, cruelty, and pillage" which, he dared say, " had not been equaled in the annals of any Christian people. I have reason to believe, that when the facts shall be known, that in all the dark and bloody annals of tyrants, there never has been, in any Christian age, such acts of cruelty and plunder as have been afflicted on the people of Paducah and the surrounding country by this man PAINE and his confeder- ates.
