encomum by others. Neither the Constitution
of the United States, nor those ofiew, ifan Of

States.

General Harrison repudates all connection with, or

The Illinois free trader. (Ottawa, Ill.) 1840-1841, 1840-07-17
Col. Richard M. johnson.

Mr. Webster, according TO the Washington
correspondent of the New York Journal of Com
fnerce, in his remarks upon the bankrupt BILL paid
high compliment TO Col. JOHNSON, our present
able and worthy Vice President and democratic
republican candidate for reelection to that high
and important station. He said
"The number of persons subject to i'm
prisonment fer debt here, was greater than
all the world beside. In England, i'm
prisonment for debt, without imputation
of fraud, has been abolished; arrest for
debt was no longer known to the laws OF
that realm. He believed that the time
was not far distant when the laws relating
to debtor and creditor, would be looked
back to with astonisbment. Here Mr..
Webster made beautiful apostrophe to
the Vice President, Col. JOHNSON. 1t is
now twenty years, said he, since you,
Mr.. President, prompted by a native sa-
gacity and kindness of heart, and anticipa-
ting results which the wisdom of the age
has been slow to arrive at, first introduced
the law for the abolition of Imprisonment
for debt. Mr.. w. proceeded in an elo-
quent manner to indicate the effects of
that movement of Col. Johnson-to thank
him for it, and assure him that he had the
thanks of thousands of grateful hearts
and moreover to tell him that the country
looked to him for his advice and aid in
carrying through this measure"
