The two proceedings are in the same spirit. It was because that distinguished statesman, while alive, had been the con- stant and unflinching champion of human rights ; because in this Hall he had dared ever to stand up against the encroaching power of the slave interest in this Govern- ment, that a party majority in the Senate of Virginia had refused to join in the uni- versal demonstrations of feeling, which, so much to the honor of our people, spread over every other part of the land.
But, a...m I to be silenced here ? Am I to be prevented from speaking out my sen- timents as a freeman, and the representative of freemen, lest I may perchance bring upon me the resentment of the gentleman from Virginia, or the abuse of the Govern- ment organ ? Attho very moment when we are proposing to congratulate the peo- ple of France on having overturned the throne of . Louis Philippe precisely because he had attempted to put down, by military forcfe, the liberty of speech — to put a padlock- on the lips of the Representatives of the people, and to prevent the people themselves from discussing the rights of man ; at the same moment an attempt of a kindred sort is made in the House oT" Representatives of this Republic !
