bv his silence at this session, that he had accumual
cd rather ton much steam, and he had better let
oil, so he might get relief lie had no idea OF doin
this until he heard the rantlng raving speech OF IN
little genlleman from New IL ,mpshire, iMr. Ather

dicuous-spsech Of the gentleman from llnoi
mir. R-ynolisl had almost put him out OF the no
ton of speaking; but, as the gentleman hailed orr
ginay from the same section OF country from whic
he came, he would eudeayor 10 answer one or tw
of his posilions. They had heard an cx,raordinsrl

He knew, from the indlc,tions he had seen in the
pubic prints, that they who were the Wing party
proper on this floor were 10 be plTalyzed at the
White House. He knew that when they came here
they were to be hardly tolerated in this House; that
mere would be an attempt 10 ride them rough
