Mr. LEEu resumed ih. debate. He said tho
principal purpose OF the remarks hc had addressed
10 the Senate yesterday, WAS To show that the o.
r'g'nal manuscript journal III our proceedings was
the journal which the Consliiui ion required ms to
keep; ihuI the rcqnsi'ion 10 ksep the oornal i'm
posed on us the duty 10 prcserre ito preserve il
permanently and ca,euly, without DETACHMENT %
mu,laiIon that no authority for cxpunenr any
entry from onr Journal could be found in English
parliamentary prccecnts, or IN those ufanv lcgsl-
,iv" body in America, whose duty 10 kocpa journal
was imposed by constitutional DIVISION
and that. consequently, the Senate could not ex-
pungc the resolution of March, 1891 from the Jour
nal, IN the literal sense OF expungng, without vio-
latIon OF the Constitution. lie had taken the more
pains 10 establish this conclusion grounds of IL
rciragahc Iea on, because, his opinion, it in
volvcd the whole question. 1t seemed to him.
indeed, that the gentleman from Missouri and his
colleague, both, thought So, too for they had ex-
rricd their faculties to the utmost To prove tho
right OF the Senate TO cxpunge, literally aud abb
>o'u'elv, as AN essential ground of the argun ens
tor cNpnngng, IN the typical manner proposed.
And he supposed it would be very hard for any
man who sincerely thought that The Consns,on
lorbad us to cxunee literally, TO reconcile it to-
reason or conscience 10 cNpunoc typically.
For, (sa'd Mr.. LrIGn) granting it To be true
that those who have right to cApunee and ami
hatc any written instrument or evidence NAV do
any thing short of actual cxpunction and dcstruc-
ton, which shall Indicate tho intent to expun. q

pungc and ann'ilafe the evidence of amy particular
transaction have right to declare their will % eX-
punec and destroy ii, in any form of words ~
action whatever, and TO substitute such n,anifcS-
iatoh OF their will in place of the act which they
are incompetent. To illustrate this A testa,or

II he run single stroke of his pen across IL, with
intent to cancel it, or write cancelled" in the
margin, without actually cancclling it-or, il ha
tear ii, with intent to destroy, without actually
destroying it, no doubt such an indication Of his
purpose is proper enough, and may stand for the
act he might righfnly perform. But no can
cancel or destroy his iced and, therefore, il
he happen to get it into his possession, he has no
right to avoid the guilt, and vet accomplish the
purpose Of destroying it, by any manner Of deface

WOMAN.

What lawyer has not observed this difference be-
tween the sexes, namely: If n woman is indicted
for offence, who attends her in the awful presence
of JUSTICE to console and cheer her, braving the
stare of the gaping crowd, the humiliation of such
companonshp and such n connexion A mother
a sister. How seldom father, brother
husband! If man is placed at the bar, who is sol
citous for him Always his aged mother, his bro
ken hearted wife, or his sorrowing daughter. Shame
sorrow, degradation, contempt all forgotten in
the strength of a woman's love. How seldom in
mans Ii he attends-and when does he his
look towards the prisoner at the bar, though his
nearest relative is often dark and scowling--a sense
of shame that attaches to himself weighing on him
at the very crisis of the prisoners fate. A woman's
look is that OF compassion and sympathy. She
thinks not of her situation or of the opinion of
the crowd around her, as regards herself: if she
glances at them, it is only when some part of the
testimony makes for against him, the Judge
the lawyer speaks upon some strong point, that she
may discern heit opinions of his fate. She watches
his eye every moment: if she is near him, she an
ticipaes his every want--she hands him the glass
of water to quench the fever that anxiety has pro-
duced-she walks by his side from the court to The
prison and from the prison to the court-she sits
near to him III the court as possble-she would sit
in the bar with him, would they allow hershe waits
for hours to exchange one word with him through
to make him decent at his trial. that his appearance
may produce a favorable impression. II the awful
verdict is against him, she forsakes him not though
all the world have forsaken him. In the last ex-
tremity, she is by his side with love that like
noble arch, pressure strengthens She attends to the
very foot of the gallows-his ignominy, his i'll treat
ment of her, are not thought Of Whose wall was
that when the fatal drop fell, piercing every and
every heart with the conviction that there was one

victs Twas hers. And she will beg his body,
and compose decenty his distorted limbs and bury
him with care. The spot where he is laid, though
known as the murderer's grave, which the world
points to with horror, and where superstition says
no grass will ever grow, is, nevertheless hallowed
spot TO her, where she will even plant the flower and
mature the grass, to induce the belief that il SUPER
stlt'on is correct the sleeper is innocent. What the
poet makes her say is true

and unworthness exalted yea, even so, that the
last was first and the first last.
have seen those who are least efficient in time
of danger, most bosterous the subject of military

l have seen persons far attentive to the con-
of their neighbors than their own, aud prying
into their affairs for the worst purposes.
have seen stupidity allied to wealth producing
a display of splendid ignorance, highly disgusting
to sound judgment
have seen little animal so inflated with pride,
as to be almost full to bursting. 1t resembled a

have seen men put on airs of war and blood,

for their lberaty towards him. and added that there
