been at some pains to collect the gene. al re-

The whole country owes to this gallant and
GIFTED young Virginian, deep debt ofgrati-

SLOW nor ready to forget. He has evinced,
from the first moment ofthe recent dsreputa-

and frank and praiseworthy independence,
worthy ofthe highest esteem. Most warmly
and cordially as we approved OF his frs,

more do we commend that patriotic and con-
ciliatory conduct in the House on Wednesday
last, In bearing into it the olive branch in tri-
nmph, and healing, in spite of the sneers and
SCOTS OF open en- emies or false friends, the
breach so fast widening between the friends
OF the Administration. Well and nobly has
he acted. His conduct through the whole
trying scene has been admirable in the high
est degree. Firm and yet moderate, digniti-
ed and yet conciliatory, thanks to his decis-
ion and promptness, the friends of order and
their country's good have ccnirivod to get
through the trials of the present week, in a
manner which the warmest patriot could hard
