L have no doubt OF it, with some
nony else in the executive chair
when the execnhonefs took down
the body OF the Savior from the
CROSS afser his crncifixion 1t is said,
"they parted His raiment among
them. and TOR His vesture they did
cast iots;for it Was without scam and
not capable OF division. Which Of

l regret NJ. PRESIDENT that it
oecamo necessary Tor me, IN the dis
0narge OF my duty - An American
Oehacof, 20 caii attention 70 The char
acser On snesc speeches. NO ono has
esScomeo the honorable Senator
from massachusetts more highly
tnan !. NO one, ! may say, Il he
wa pardon tho remark, has loved
MIN with deeper affection. Early
IN my Senatorial career that honor
able Senator placed me under obliga-
tions by personal kindness that ]
never can forget. I would not utter
one Mord in dispArsgement Of his
great abilities or the purity OF hie
motives. l would not take one grain
OF sand from under bic feet or di.
minish bis stature by . hairs breadth
II could do anything in the dis
charge Of duty q . member Of thil
body to elevate him, If that wert
possible, would gladly do it.
But, sir the preservation Of tht
institutions OF this country, We have
been told to-day. 10 worth more, fal
mora, than the preservation O
friendly relations with Presidents
and that duty 10 . task-master tina,
mast DO obeycd. A lverily believe
on my conscience that the preserva
tioo a orr unity - NATION and the
preservation our FREQ institutions de-
Psod e. The triumph Of the Repub
iican party for some years longer,
cannot aid, even by my sflence, any
one, however disting ,ished and loved
- enconplishisg than which must il
my opinion, result in its destruction
Az feeble - my voice may be, i,
shall Dc heard By those who choose
70 hear 1t in defense Of that organi
sation, until, at least, some grave
offeDse shall have been committed by
its leaders, and approved by ths
party ut large, worthy of condemna
tion. But il must b something O
2 greater gravity, something NOR,
: akin to crime, than the manifestation
Of desire to preserve the peace i,
