opposed The test amendment declaring the
Missouri Compromise imperative and void ,
and had EXPIRE essed his views in opposition TO
the bill. There could, therefore, be- no
doubt bu, that he would have voted against
The bill. He now desired The unanimous
consent Of the Senate to have his vote re-
corded against the bill.
Mr.. Clayton said lbat he had been desired
TO record his vote in favor OF the repeal Of
the eighth section of The Missouri act, bu,
when he heard the Senator from New Hamp.
