Mr. President, I envy not the triumph
of hi ui who has pressed forward these reso
lutions, agninst the opinions, feelings, and
consciences of those whom he has louud
means to compel to their -support- resolu
tions w inch he has urged on with passion,
fierce, vindictive, furious. Still less do I
envy the condition of those who are com
pelled to go onward, against all iIioha feel
ings and motives which should direct ihe
actions of the legislator and ihe man. Y hy
do I see around me so many pale I'cauliires
and downcast eyes, unless il be that re
peiiiance and remorse gu' hand in-liand

would rather, a thousand limes, stand alone,
