When the Constitution Of the United States
was submitted for ratification, Mr.. Henry op-
posed it as tending to consolidation, and as
calculated from the large powers it gave the
Executive to be the ruin OF the country.
Yet the last efforts of his eloquence-
from which he sank exhausted at Charlotte
Court House-was to advocate the doctrine
that Virginia was to the Union only what
Charlotte county was to Virginia" to pro-
nounce the alien and sedition laws "good and
proper; and to picture Washington at the
head of numerous and well-appointed army,
inAicting military execution" on the people
of Virginia, as the probable and deserved
consequence of their persisting in the line of
policy laid down in the resolutions Of 1893
A man whose public life could compass
such inconsistencies, so utterly at variance,
SO audaciously contradictory, May have been
successful demagogue, may have been the
very prince of ''stump-speakers' but he must
have lacked alike, the consistency of intel
lectual purpose and the integrity of moral
principle, to constitute him great orator.
