IFfOm the HiehmOnd bentinal, March e
Senator Wigfall, who has been pursuing
avery extraordinary and very rcprehensible
course during the whole OF the present res
sion OF Congress, seemed inspired, in his
speech of Tuesday night, by q desire "a
surpess all his previous offences against
the public interests. His speech was vio-
lent, unpatriotlc, and censurable In the
highest degree; devoted 10 tho advocacy OF
extreme fancies, and 10 the abuse Of those
who stand Infinitely higher than be In the
public confidence. He denounced tho Vlr-
ginia Legislature ~ "a one horse concern, !"
(wbere were our Senators that they had no
word OF rebuke1) denounced the press,
poured out his bitterness upon the Presl-
dent, and demanded that he and the Vice
President should reslgn.
There 10, perhaps, not . patriot In the
land who will not think that Mr.. Wlgfsll
should himself take the advice he gives,
and resign his seat In the Senate. Had
he done so II the beginning Of the session,
q great deal 81 time would have been saved
TO that body, which has been far worse
than wasted. One of'the Last speeches
which the writer heard In the old United
States Senate was from Mr.. Wlgfall, In
which he deiied the North and almost In
vited them 10 the battle. Little did We
then expect, when the war should Indeed
come, 70 sec him pursue the course which
has made his further service during the
session now about TO close an evil and q
curse 10 his country.
