When Mr.. WALSH rose, Il was very near the

and placed in tho position that belonged Of night TO
men OF mind and power; but he also thought Il evident
that the words IN the preamble when applied 10 Mr.
Polk meant that be had rsnscended his authority In
the commencement OF the War with Mexico. For
that he (Mr. w could not vote. tie was not sent here
as the dependent OF any party-he took his cue from
none-he appeared on that floor the advocate Of tho
houseless and shirtess democracy and where their In
terests affected he would speak the truth offend
whom II might Tie would follow the dictates Of bis
own Judgment, and had taken even bis fathers
advice unless where IL accorded with his OF
right He was the poorest that hoor-hsd left
his family with scarce dollar, and could hardly raise
enough money here TO get shaved in consequence OF
the supply BIZ passing but rather than the Folun
teers should have their poney he would give his
check hs share If the Legislature and tho officials
would jon him and thus raise the money without sny
public bill at all appreciation In the galleres) This
would ensbe the House to attend to the business Of the
country
