There was sequel to Wheelers
speech later In the day. when Grosve.
nor secured the floor and replied al
length to what the Kentuckian had
said. AS to Wheelers denial of his
statement regarding the visit of the
Prince of Wales in 1860, Grosvenor de.
clared that he personally could bear
witness to the truth of his assertion
for he himself had seen the Prince
when he first set foot on American soil
at Niagara. As young man he had
listened to the Princes speech, he
said, with great interest.
Just at the time when the American
people were to be put to the test rs to
whether they were gentlemen, II was
most unfortunate that this protest
should come agains the reception OF
Prince Henry. The speech of the gen,
tleman from Kentucky would be ex
plotted in Europe tomorrow, on the
eve of the Princes departure, as the
message of the American people to
their guest.
Wheeler interposed at this point to
say that he should gladly welcome any
gentleman from abroad. What he OBJ
! jccted to was the official color to be
given to the visit. Then, as Grosvenor

critiCising the President for making a
new precedent connection with the
coronation of King Edward, Wheeler
interrupted to say that while he had
not desired to bring the matter into the
discussion. what he had deplored was

Grosvenor then took up Wheeler's
speech, reading from it the term little

marks about his Indifference to the
