formed, and believe, that yesterday even
ing, in the heat of debate, made use
language abrupt and supplementary,
not only to the body of the Senate, but to
individuals. 1 regret this exceedingly,
gentlemen of the Senate, because, during
my career on the floor of the Senate,
have been constantly treated with the
greatest courtesy and kindness by all the
members, irrespective of party; and now
offer an apology for the abrupt language
used by me yesterday, trusting that the
Senate will receive it.
The President: hope that members
who felt themselves aggrieved yesterday,
by the language of the Senator, will feel
satisfied with what know must be
humiliating to any Senator, aud to gen
tleman of refinement and culture to make
such 40 acknowledgment. hope it will
be received, and that any ill-feelings
which may have been entertained toward
the Senator will be removed, and that he
ngs as heretofore.
