was taken up. Mr.. Voorhees,, referring to
the attack made in the senate upon the

the presiding officer Of the senate, holding
the highest official position now held by
republican, had descended to the floor and
attacked the memory of American heroes
who were sleeping where flowers and tears
were annually cOmmingled on memorial
day. Mcclellan, he said, was a democrat
and when removed from command on the
7th of November, 1862 he could with up
lifted hand have sworn that he had saved
the republic as did Cicero on the Forum at
Rome Mcclellan and Hancock were the
heroes Of the most consequential battles of
the war, Antietam and Gettysburg, the
loss of which would have brought European
recognition of the confederacy and dark
ness and dismay if not final destruction.
The animal industry bill was laid aside
and the bill to forfeit unearned land grants
was taken up but went over without ac-
ton and the senate adjourned.
