Mr President, I wish not y le mis-

distinguished man who has come upon
our shores. Far, very far be IL from me

national independence. and serks aur

most cordial feelings. He msy forfeit
them by showing that he brings rrsstsss.
spirit with him. which is incompatible
with The security OF any Sia~; bni my
first impressions must always he decidedly
and heartily in his favor. In making
these remarks. have merely given my
reasons for declining to voie lar The pas.

believe that al no distant day the whole

this iesoluiion-will understand that. IN
The circumstances which surround us and
give il significance. there is = great deal
more implied than empty compliment
or honorary graduation great deal more
than we can do in consistency with our
past history. and with just regard Tor
our own interests and future peace aud

Mr.. FooTE. Of Miss. ! wish TO call
The attention OF Inv. Senalr. and of the Sc
major from North Canlina ur. Bdger
especially. to what know lie is as famil-
lar with rs any other MN in existence
To one ofihe amendments Ia the consiiiu-
iinn Of The United States. whieh reads as
follows:
.Congress shall make M Law respeei-
ing the establishment 81 religion, fni pro-
hibiiing the free exercise lhere"f, or abri,lg.
ing the freedom 81 speech OF of the press,
or the right &C tie people peaceahly Ia
assemble and petition The gorernmen, fnr
redress Of grievances"
suppose that under tina, rlau.e no one
can doubt The right of The people prarea-
bly, 10 assemble. The right of frpe,lnm 81
! speech is also fnlly sernred. Therefore
il seems To me that any gentleman. espe-
cially such an individual as This. invil Il
10 our shores and brought M national
vessel, NIGH, al least make public speech
, without being denounced as public cmis-
, sary. think lie nigh, he allow ed To APP

addresses made tn him by other persons.
] venture To say that my friend from
North Carolina. if he will lonk inlo the
public prints of New York. will find that
the demeannr 81 this gentleman sinre his
arrival here has been modest, ,ligniird and
judicinus: thai he has shown no iniermed-
ding spirit; that h. has no, agi,a'ed against
our institutions. hut under the mnsi ex-
iraor,linary tests he has manifested a dis
position mol 10 inierf re- in the least possi.
bile degree with domestic questions Of any
kind. lie has said expressly that his ms.
-inn is ia behalf II his own country.
and that he should deem himself dis
grared if he was Ia uiler nr write . sin-
gle word wliIrh could possibly be mis-
construed 10 an intention On his part 10 in
iciIere in our domestic concerns. THESE
ARE the facts ~ The Ease. Ills speeches
are all of one tenor and character. YET
