dc lMr b. found no such appendix to "CuShins's

Mr.. d. had nothing more to say on this subject
at the present time, reservng himself for the second
veto " hen Il c ne.
lie desired before ne took his seat to correct the
report I'm the lntoligrncer) Of yesterdays proceed
ns as irr as he concerned; ana he took pleasure
IN aequillnS the Reporters OF al blame for the mac
curacy. IL Is natural that mistakes should be made,
and he had been surprised ct the general correct
ness OF their reports running through the proceed
insS Of a wi Ne day.
But he had said nothing yesterday, n reply to
the gentleman from North Careiua about scoring
he had applied no such cpi,hs, to the gentleman,
rs that he scored others or himself deserved scor-
ing. What he said was that d, WAS the privilege
ct little men TO scold, and the gentleman from North
Ndtolna never tAi.eu 10 uEall n mSet o. the oppOT
tunry OF scoldng, and 1t seemed matter IIle with
HIM whether he scOliej lrieEd or toe
When he (Mr b. took the honr yesterday, rs
inus, have been observed by the House he was sur
rounded 10y IN; triend'. who bees, him no, to say
any thing harsh offensive IN reply TO the graui-
.louS END, as he thought, nkui reference that IN
been made by his friend from North Corol.na mir |
Sanly) toa private ,iter which had been pur.oin-
ed tor the press.
He (Mr 81 received that he would ot permit a |
hasty expression that fell from friend, with whom
las he was abSent) he would say, he mad formed |
not only an Intimate rie.dShip from ten months re-
sdenee 10 he same house, out whom he ro- ognis
cd as an bic, hSh-m nded, intelligent gentie-
man. though exceedingly eNclta0le and waspiSh, as
the House knew-pariicuiariy when he knew that
he had no purpose to give offence.
But there was another part OF that report Mr. |
desired TO correct. lie observed by the mornin,
paper that the gentleman from North Carolina was
reported as saving what he had not understood him
to say on ycslerd,y-ihough he might have said il.
lie says "He has not heard of oRe solitary
Wing, IN this House out Of II, who did not con.
denim the whole spirit OF that letter"
MIR Is. did not know by what authority that GEN
ueman undertook TO speak thus broadly for the |
whole party. HIS impression was a different, one |
no had heard many express regret that the letter
was published, he should himself regret excep:
that It was published by Mr.. Tyler or his friends !
On the contrary, ne knew of no Wing in the
House who did not concur IN the sentiment therein
expressed about shading" the President in the
the signature Of the Pesden, 10 4 bank bill iu or
der 10 cut of any conncIIon formed Or cOntempIa- |
ted with the opposite party-e,her by his sigma
ture 10 the bill that had passed this House. or ms
own bill, which he had proposed by way Of heading
him.
Ii there WIS member Of the party who did not
deSlT- 10 obtain such signature, he hoped he would
now rise and sta.c It, and he would give way for
the purpose. That, - lie had said on yesterday,
and as was known to the whole party, was his

MIR q. proceeded 10 say tina, a remark had fallen
yesterday from the member from Kentucky tMr
Mlrshal) which MIR b. thought might have per-
sOnal application, and which he hau intended TO
have nouced. Bat, having the assurance Of sever
al Of the friends OF that gentleman, 10 his shsencr
that nothing of the kind was intended, he (Mr b.
should ioTocar to say any thing IN relation TO Il.
MIR u. concluded with an appeal 10 the commit
tee 10 postpone any further debate political mat
tiers; that they would return 20 the subiec, matter
under consideration, and pass the bl. promptly /.

as TO IT'S suffering creditors, tina, this should be done
