worthy of his State, and worthy of his cause. he
defended the war; showed the policy of passing the bill
under existing circumstances, and replied to Mr. Cal
houn's positions.
There point in Mr.. Calhoun's speech which,
thought, answered another He was apprehensve that
the vigorously prosecuted might end in the
annexation of all Mexico; and yet we understood him
say that since the session of Congress the public SEN
tment had so strongly set its seal of reprobaton upon
the measure, that it and forever repudlaed

widows were born previous to September 3, 1885, }aae
of the treaty of peace between the United States and Eng

only who were married or before the last day
December, 1893, and excludes those who were ma a
