The Portland Argus, in an article on tht

The Portland Argus, in an article on the
late duel says:-
The occasion is one which furnishes mat
ter for deep reflection. A member of Con-
gress from the North has been murdered in
cnld blood, in accordance with false code
ofhonor wrongfully imposed upon the Cap
itol of our common country. We see little
use in being represented there, if our Rep
resentatiyes are To be hunted to death for
an honest and conscientious discharge Of
their duty. Where are the privileges of
members, If every vasabond of whom they
may find it necessary to speak, is to be per-
mitted TO call them to account, and, if too
infamous to do it themselves, to cause them
to be shot by prOry and by members too : The
House owes it TO its own character to iu-
vestigate this bloody tragedy-the Northern
members owe it TO themselves to insist on
that investigation.
