somewhat peculiar. Composed as the Senate
is of numerous and able debaters to an unu-
sual degree, debate has been rarely known in
this chamber. This absence of discussion is
not to be encouraged with safety; but in this
case its absence is accounted for, because Of
the long discussions in and by the committees,
who are the eyes and ears OF the house, and
the great confidence whiclrthe members have
entertained in their committees and in each
other. May the time never come when the
people shall lose confidence in the faithful
ness and integrity of their Representatives
so long MS you remain solicitous, for the pub
lie welfare, and tenacious of justice. jus, SO
long will the people turn their faces towards
you. And now, before leaving this chair for
ever. let me tell you how much interest /
shall take in your future lite, and how much
| wish you success in your endeavors and
successful entrance in that all-hail hereafter
whittier we are all hoping at last to arrive.
l wish you pleasant return to your families
and constituents, with the knowledge which
you can surely have that you have done the
State some service.
