trlct, the largest district In point of opulatiuu
ct any III the Union. district which, a, the
late fall e,tcion poiled over nifty -iour lhou~snd
votes; district which Is bounded on the west
for a distance Of three hundred miles by tile
mighty Father of aters.' and on the north
by the largest inland sea IN the Jrld and com

Democracy siood aghast and many hung ihclr
I heads from very shame.
Thel had not been III the la II of hearing
their stump orators euioglze slavery good
thing. or neruhers Ot Congress- proclaim their
love for the fugitive slave law. and trumpet to
the world their eageIuess for a chance To t.stl-
~ actIvel their admiration of that enactment.
Tie result Was. that IN one Senatorial district
canvassed by my colleague, whc.s el cIed a
Democratic State Senator two years ago. by
several hundred majority, Republican was
drcd majority. In the other district visited hy
my colleague. which elected "a Democratic SEN
af"r two years ago. by about three hundred ma
J"rIsy, a Republican chosen by majority
Of over eleven hundred. Thus the Repuhllcans
BY tie teachings Of my colleague. gained two
State Senators. and about two thousand votes.
Ia Two Senatorial districts alone. Could he
have gone through the State, and repeated the
same speech thai he spoke IN my district, have
10 doubt that, instead of the Republican party
ha,ing majority OF four thousand IN the State
they would have had majority oftwentv thou
sand.
My colleague favored the House and tho
country with a dsquisitlon upon the dItf.rent
races OF He does not believe III the unity
Of the Human race, and claims be the inv, u

slightly mistaken when lie stood upon Mars
