Daniel and Virginia's Other Great.
In the three-quarters of a century
that have elapsed since the death of
Benjamin Watkins Leigh Virginia has
not been represented in either house
OF the national Congress by any man
the equal of Major Daniel, not ex-
cepting William c. Rives and X. Nj.
l. Hunter in the Senate, and Muscoe
Russell Hunter Garnett In the House.
If from this claim of superiority we
were to except John Randolph Tucker.
we would yet maintain that Daniel
was his full equal. If il be admitted
that as an adept in the particular
subject of constitutional law Tucker
was his superior, il cannot be denied
that as ready, forcible and sue
ceSsful debater Daniel was his equal.
and that as an orator he was far his
superior.
1t is a very common, but very mis-
taken idea that Senator Daniel wrote
and memOrized the great speeches
that he made in the Senate and else
where on the rostrum. Nothing can
be more unfounded. In his early ca
reer he did, indeed, adopt this plan;
and his great grafton on Robert E
Lee, delivered at Lexington, was so
prepared. But he had by assiduous
study acquired the facility of express
ing himself in an unprecedented way.

are chairs vacant there that will not
