speech on accepting the appointment
He alluded to previous campaigns of the
whig party, and SAID that, in his opinion, the
next contest would show that the United States
were still wing. lie regarded, he SAID, Mil
lard Fillmore as n model resident. In rCgart
to Mr.. Webster, he SAID that in some of hn
acts in the Senate he could not agree, but ht
7 still accorded to him the desire to do his best
for his country. OF his deeds in the cablnc
he spoke IN terms of unquluIed praise, allud

and said he believed that, in great measure
his eminent craftsmanship had preserved thu
peace of the country. tie cuvIcd not him wh
