But to return to Mississippps repudja-
ton. .PRENTIss led the gallant and honora-
BILE statesmen who gave it no quarter. He
opposed it in speeches that were represent
ed by his contemporaries to have exceeded
ANYTHING in the line OF whitening invecttve,,
as well as glowing eloquence, that had ever
been heard by them. He was SO mortified,
his mind was SO disturbed, at the movement
80 widely sustained to repudiate the public
honor OF such State as mississippi, that he
declared that he was ashamed to, go abroad
and be known as citizen OF Mississippi.
During the period he visited New Orleans
on business, and the citizens OF that then
proud city, who idolized him, pressed upon
him some attentions which he sought to
avoid. He publicly declared that he was
ashamed to receive any testimonials OF
esteem $50 long as the bIack flag Of re-
spudsasiom scaued triemphaatiy over the
"fertile plains and rich va!teys Of has
{" adopted State" In his speeches he
poured out the most startling denunciations
upon reputation, and pictured before the
enchanted crowd that hung upon his lips
the terrible consequences upon Mississippi
and her people should reputation prevail
her degradation amongst States, their pros
&ration. and distress from the loss OF both
public and private credit. One figure OF
his seemed 70 be the discriminating senti-
ment Of his heart that Reputation by Mis-
sissippi sfshould blot from the Spangled
"Banner the star that glitters to her name,
"but leave the stripe behind as at en-
"blem Of her degradation -

Judge was 10 his place.. and could not think
