do injustice to cur feelings. were we on this
occasion to omitthe expression Of our conyic-
ton of the stern integrity and firm republic
canism of this veteran politician, whose
greatest enemies have only dealt in gene

whose chief offence was perhaps that he

that which the character of the Embassy
