such INQUIRY. And II il were otherwise should scorn
10 be found ousng among the secret archives Of the
Government 10 get the matter for attack The GEN
,lemsn from Pennsylvania was thus aided, and yes
teraay the Hon Gentleman in his place and offered
charges Of an entirely different kind from those which
had been indignantly repealed in The other House and
asked the authority of this body 70 collect documentary
proofs swe the t;de which be ianced was running SO
high against the reputation of great man
While do presume 10 undertake the defence oth
Hon Senator-a TASK which friend Of his need feel
called upon to undertake wish 10 say few words in
repy 20 some of the remarks which fell yesterday from
the gentleman from Alabama. (Mr fancey) For that
gentleman heretofore, and during acquaintance OF
years have entertained high respect: aud sin
cerey regretted for his sake that he should have
De Knitted himself say what he then said shall
speak particularly OF the private affairs Of the Hon.
Senator which the gentleman from Alabama dragged be-
fore this Houseor which he admitted he had proof
scarcely even newspaper evidence. Such wan,ou.
grstutous uncaedor assault regretted 10 the gen.
ternan permit himself TO make; and friend viii
ling hope what be said spoken in the neat Of de-
bate. and without due consideration.
But in another portion Of the remarks of the gentle
man from Alabama Il struck tnat ne peculiarly
considering the political character Of the men
in whose company he has volunteered against toe Sens
tor from Mass. thought bin peculiarly unfortunate 10
aludng the position OF Mr. Webster during the late

when the two great political parties OF that csy were OPP
posed each other the justice and expedencJ OF
tina. war the course Of some men connected with the
resolution under consideration may possibly De suggest
ed to the minds Of Members Why single out Mr. Web
ster from tue old federal party object Of attack .
I, may inq1rcs into the political character OF
others-and while the gentleman from Penn. (Mr
C. j. nrersol) and his friend from Alabama are assang
Mr. Webster for his course during the war ask leave
10 Inquire Of the Hon Gentleman whether one thing
which has been said of him 10 false. If false,
would rather my should be pasied than utter
him then in connection with this charge agains; Mr.
Webster whether ne said thH. u he had lSu.d in
the times Of the Revolution he you'd have been Tory
Mr. ISGEEsoLL Yes did say ii.
Mr. DIXON. ! admire the gentlemans honesty in
frankly avowing it, aud while he had right 10 express
and to entertain the opinion ask whether he and his
friends can assai Mr. Webster or any other who
acted with the old Federal party
There is another name suggested by the gentleman 5
remsrks-s name now high the list Of modern Demo
cra,s and connected with this Resolution When the
gentleman were hunting in couples against Mr.. Web
SCR think unfortunate Tor them that they should re
mind the present Secretary Of State, Mr. Buchanan
And | ask the gentleman from Pennsylvania. (lr
BRoDHEAD) whether ii is true. al reported of Mr.. Bu
that he said that II he had drop OF Demo
cratic blood in his veins, if he knew where i. was he
would open the vein and let IL out.
