them It's approach and such action for power and
unanimiy, never was known. There Is no mistake
about il.
Mr.. Chairman, under ordinary circumstances, an
apology might TO be due to the committee from
NE, but every member on this floor will bear me wit
ness that this contest is not of my seeking My col
league has taken such course to make the proprety
of a reply not even debateable The member from
Ohio made harangue on the causes Of the Florida
war, equally offensive to every Southern member and
SO far as know believe, disapproved by Northern
men and southern men of both parties. He urged
slavery and negro stealing the causes of the Florida
The property rights of the people OF the South,
so far as the member could do il, brought into
the discussion All Southern should feel alike
should act alike on this subject. And my colleague
was the first to discuss the subject in connection with
party politics and the events Of the recent elections
What, sill bring party politics into the discussion
when our property rights are assailed. No sir never

w hen the member from Ohio went into his harangue
as TO the causes OF the Florida war; the point Of order
was made by myself and others, but il was not sus-
tanned. II could not be excluded. And the debate
was atitudinous--but assumed party discus
sion until the second day Of my colleagues speech
when, after consultation Of his pillow he gave the
discussion this important feature. Sir, if we are to
understand any thing from his remarks, Is that the
people Of Georgia led from the true issue before
them in the late elections and were running after log
cabins, hard cider, and coon skins The people OF
Georgia led from the true issue 2 No, sir. No.
sir They well understood the true issue, and were
not to be led OF by the many ISLANDERS against General
Harrison. They never would have gwen their vote
to Mr.. Van Buren,. And when General Harrison
was nominated thoy looked to his characterhis pub
lie servces-his ftnessand the these qualities
examined into, the more certainly was proved
that he possessed all those qualifications which entitled
him TO their support.
