Extract from his recent speech:

Citizens! l have served the State thirty years, and
have nothing to excuse, retract, qualify in my public
course. My labors have been for the public good,
gardess OF self. On my tomb II might be written
can Senate and had Office for himself, any
OF his blood" exult in the righteousness and dsnter-
estedness Of my public life; and, whatever others may
think Of it, feel that have done my duty and had
many proud days. 1t proud day when struck
the bank of the United States without second proud
day when gave notice Of the expungng resolution;
proud day when proclaimed the revival Of the gold
currency; proud day when struck the salt monopoly
proud day when defended the pioneer settlers, and
advocated the liberal disposition of the public lands;
proud day when broke up the first intended Nashville
Convention in 1874; proud day when broke up the
criminal annexation treaty, Intended get the South
out Of the Union instead of getting Texas proud
day when semmed the current of the Fifty -Four For
ty, or Fight. in which il would have been fight, and
with as much right our side, would have been a
hight Tor Canada; proud day when gave that little
geographical lesson in the Senate about Frazer's river
thousand miles long, covered with British stations from
head to mouth which no American foot had ever
trod and which lay exactly between Oregon and "a 49,
md sr which Great Britain would have fought upon the
same principle and with the right, she would
have fought for the Tower of London. These were
proud days, called for by the public good, requiring
bed tsdsperve, and not without danger to my public
exsfehcI faced Them the scissors Of the political
Atropos full in view. But the proudest of these days
the toghich look back with the highest exultation
IS that Friday, February the 18th, lS47 when Senator,
now no more-peace to his name-brought in that reso
luton, the Pandoras box of political world; and
when that brief colloquy took place between US which
parliamentary history has preserved When he had
delivered bis well prepared speech, he asked early
day for the consideration of his resolution and express
ed the expectation of unanimous vote.

The Senator said he had expected to support it,
answered it impossible that he could have expect
ed me to support any such thing. Then he said b,
would know where to find me; and answered with
the inspiration of patrotism) VI shall be found tire
side Of MY country" and there found-am found
and will be found-through all the moods and lenses OF
the verb to the more than perfect, plus guam per-
