Chairman, this intemper- ance had but little effect. Gentlemen may, therefore, indulge in rhetorical flourishes, and in drawing the hi- deous pictures of disordered imaginations, without endan- gering the union. Sir, it is in tlie patriotism, the intel- ligence, and the sober judgment of the people, that the anchor of our safety consists. And in these virtues, I trust the patriots of Virginia will not be deficient.
I regret, Mr. Chairman, that the remarks of gentlemen have thus drawn from me wh...at perhaps had better never been said, and what, I am sorry to remark, I have felt myself called upon to say, in the discharge of my duty ; and having done so, I will now proceed to the examina- tion of the expediency of this restriction as an object of national concern.
Mr. Chairman, we have attempted to plant in the Ame- rican soil the principles of free and republican govern- ment ; we have attempted to set an example to the world, of the capacity of man to govern himself, and of securing to all tlie enjoyment of equal rights.
