I'd. each morning, having probably suffered

Both the gentlemen were much heated with
he subject they discussed. MIR. CARING ton,
however, represented the sentiments OF every
senator on The Hoor except his oDDouent who

against the appropriation. The voice of the
Senate was unanimously indignant at the inn
putaions of the fiery, ill-judged attack.
