Is there no reverence for the supremacy of the laws and the civil institutions of the coun- try displayed on this occasion? If such acts of heroism and moderation, of chivalry and submission, have no charms to excite the ad- miration or soften the animosities of gentle men in the opposition, l have no desire to see them vote for this bill. The character of the hero Of New Orleans requires no en- dorsement from such source.
