l entertain, personally, the kindest feelings
and in extending to them the parting hand,
| must be permitted 10 congratulate them
on their early departure, and the good com
pany into which they have fallen. And in
conclusion must say to the wing party in
the language of another, one who knew some
thing OF the strength Of political parties, and
the elements Of which they are composed,
that by these assertions we have been rem
dered "cleaner and stronger"
Mr.. barnes said that he only oo-opera-
ted with the gentleman from Boone for a
special ptirpose-that of electing Col. Doni-
phan. He believed that gentleman (Mr.
Guitar) was dead weight TO the wing par
ty.. If it were not for him (Mr. Guitar }
and his friends, there were thirty-two gen
tlemen on that side of the House who would
have voted for Gen. Doniphan.
Mr.. Guitar replied. He (Darnes) had
tried to cooperate with him, but for what
purposeP To elect his friend (Mosely }
from the southeast to the Presidency of the
Cape Girardeau bank. He tried to coo per-
ate with him for that purpose. But he tried
in vain. ! had formed my opinion of that
gentlemhn's (Mr. Mosley's) whiggery long
ago; and / announced TO this joint session a
few days ago, when voted against that gen.
tleman, that did so because l did not re-
gard him asa "reliabte ,rhig," and leave it
10 this joint session now to decide how near
my remarks, made on that occasion, have
been verified on this. And as to my friend
from Scott, (Mr. Darnes) l have seen
through him long since, l put my mark
upon him, and have had no reason TO take
it off. He says he co-operated with u.s.
How has he co-operated with us2 Not in
the election of Speaker. He did vote with
us in the election of bank officers, but SO
soon as he got his share of the spoils, he
deserted us, and ] say joy go with him.
Mr.. barnes said, that if he were to be
attacked he wanted to be attacked by that
gentleman's (Mr. Guitars master; and not
by himself Every gentleman knew where
he stood and what he was. He was states
rights southern wing and there was no af-
finities between him and the gentleman who
had just spoken (Mr. Guitar). He and
his friends were not wings, they belonged to
the freesoil Benton party in the State
When he found that Mr.. Broadhead's name
was brought before the House, he did not
know but Mr.. Rollins might be next put
in nomination. and that he (Mr. barnes J
might be overwhelmed by the united free
soil vote in the House. Mr.. barnes asked
if he did not regard him Mr.. Darnes) as a
reliable wing, how did he regard such men
as Mr.. Geyer, Gen. Watkins or other dis
tinguished men ofthe whig party in the state.
How did he regard such men as Hopkins,
Toombes and Badger? One thing he Mr..
barnes wished Mr.. Guitar to do, and that
was when the people of Missouri were de-
prived of their slaves by the freesoil aboli-
tionists of Illinois, that he would get up sub
scriptions for compromising their owners.
Mr.. Mosely considered the remarks Of
the gentleman from Boone unkind. uncalled
for and ungenerous. He repudiated the idea
of being influenced in his conduct by the
pnltry office to which he had been elected
He was born wing and raised whig.-
His ancestors were wings from the begin
ming and had fought in the revolution war.
He appealed 10 the prominent wings of the
House if they had not known his father 'as
a wing Of the old school. He was south
ern wing in every sense Of the word and
wishes to see slavery extended to the farth-
est point.
Mr.. Mosely referred to circular which
he had written TO his constituents which he
contend justified him in changing his vote.
Mr.. Sitton remarked that Mr.. Atchison
voted time and again for congressional legis-
lation in the territories, yet the party never
changed
Now those gentleman who had receded
and joined the anti-Bentons were assuring
the House they had not changed. They be-
lieved Mr.. Doniphan was sound upon the
power question, and yet they had voted for
Atchison, and quit Col. Doniphan. In like
manner, the little giant, who was the great
leader of the party, had changed over and
over again, and the Kansas Nebraska bill,
itself, had undergone three changes, and
yet was an administration measure through
out.
Mr.. Kitchen, on the next ballot, contend.
ed that he was a wing in the true sense OF
the word. He referred 10 the origin of the
name wing, which signifed, originally, one
opposed TO the despptisn of kings. 1t had
its ORGAN in England, in The reign of king
Charles. Mr.. Kitchen took strong grounds
in favor of the Kansas Nebraska bill, as did
the other gentleman who changed their
votes.
Mr.. Guitar said, am sorry to see that my
friends over the way take my kind offices in
such high dudgeon. l was disposed to part
with them in all kindness and friendship, but
this it seems they are not willing | should
do. In reply to my friend from New Mad
rid, (Mr. Mosely,) he tells us he is de.
scendant of wing stock; has traced his gen
ealogy far back down the stream OF time, and
informs us that his father is true whig.-
Mr.. Chairman, am happy to state that
have heard OF Thomas Mosely myself, and
if common fame is 10 be relied on, he is a
gallant and unhinching wing and ] am sorry
10 find my friend on this occasion the dege-
nerate son Of so noble sire-I mean politi.
cally. l am unable to trace my ancestry as
far back as the gentleman has done, but car
safely say this much, that no one OF my name
or kindred ever deserted the flag of his
country, or the colors ofhis party.
desire to say word in reply to the Sen.
ator from Perry, (Mr. Kitehen.l He state.
