M'r. Randolph said that the house was
already upprized of the death of General
William Wasliington, in whom our country
had lost one of her most illustrious sons.
lt is very far from my intention, sir, (said
he) by any nmplisication of mine to lesson
the impression of that mctlt which the bare
mention of his name is calculated to make
on the mind of every man who helm me.
it is not the least tmcquivocal proof _of that
worth that it was not extinguished by the
cﬀulgrnce of his great kinsman's glory,
With which it was daily brought into com
parison. The reputation which can stand
such an ordcal as this, is far beyond the
praise or blame of an humble individual
like me. is to the proposition which ( am
dbout to oﬀer an Objection should arite in
the breast of any man who hears me on the
score of the rank which that gentleman
bore: in the late Americctm army, permit me
to suggest that it is a testimony to valor and
not to rank. it is not a mere respect to
rank which I wish the house to pay. It is
not in rank to add to the insamy of an Ar—
'DUld or to the glory of a Washigton. l
will therefore move the following resolu
tion :
, Rc-solved That the members of this house
si do wear crape on their lest arm during the
si remainder of the session, as a teetilnunctv of
? respect for the memony of \Vm. Washing

f Mr. Smilie said he hoped there was no
man who felt more respect or gratitude to
; those men who served theirsicountry during
} the rrt'uluti-vnary war than he did ; but this
i rcsoiution appeared to him to be improper
j on several grounds. l agree (said Mr. S.)
with the gentleman from Virginia that the
; rank should have no eﬀect on the opinions
* us members of this house on such a subject
* as this. But it is not singular as to the ma
ny heroes who have StGVCd us during the
revolutiun, who have now gone to their
long home, no notice has been taken of
