Rev. J. p. Mutually, who takes the ad.
vanced and commanding position thai
III penitent David was fttest to be
king, penitent Breckenridge may be
fittest to be representative" There are,
however, several lame joints in Mr..
Mullally's analogy. In the first place,
David was not made king by a popular
vote. In the next place he simply con-
fessed his sins without going upon the
stump and boasting of them; and final
ly, he did not make the extraordinary
assumption that career Of infamy and
vice was a necessary qualification for
the representative of a vlrtuous con-
stituency. The Kentucky idea, as ex-
pounded by Breckinridge is that a man
who points exultingly to his own base
ness is one whom the people should de-
light to honor.
