in this triumph more •lucerely than 1 did,
under a firtn iMdief thal the principlt ti I had
b‘en advocating all my life would lorni tho
basis ol General Jack»)n’8 adnm;i4.liiition.
In addiii. n to which, I enferlained t.nmrda
biiu a most ardr nt |K.i(sv)nal atlacliii.eni j
and in the fullness of mj heart, 1 Ix litvi 1
him to be one of the greatest and best of

this idolalr\, 1 have been tifien taunted, »»nd

doubt my sincerity then 1 No, (,,, ; „.y actb
spoke lfuder than my wordh. Does any
l erson doubt my sincerity now 7 No, sir.
Call the para.sites and sycophants, who sur-
r.'Uiid him, say ai much ? U I.eii pov^er-

they ffjwH and fliitt* r, and, l(jr tiieirlawn-
in;.' and flattering, exj»ect their pay with as
much certainly as the laborer does liis hire.
At that tune, I bad a strong hold on ilip nf.

ol it, 1 bad, during the previous wiiiI.t,
