Unfortunately, too, for him, he was jammed in directly behind the chair of the vice president, where he could not see, and hardly hear, the speaker. By slow and laborious effort paus- ing occasionally to breathe he gained one of the windows, which, constructed of painted glass, flank the chair of the vice president on either side. Here he paused, unable to make more headway ; but determined . To see Mr. Webster as he spoke, with his knife he made a large hole in one of the panes of the glass ; ...which is still visible as he made it. Many were so placed as not to be able to see the speaker at all.
" The courtesy of senators accorded to the fairer sex room on the floor the most gallant of them their own seats. The gay bonnets and brilliant MR. WEBSTER PREPARED. 183 dresses threw a varied and picturesque beautv over the scene, softening and embellishing it.
" Seldom, if ever, has a speaker in this or any other country had more powerful incentives to exer- tion a subject, the determination of which involved the most important interests, and even duration, of the republic ; competitors unequalled in reputation, ability, or position ; a name to make still more glo- rious, or lose forever ; and an audience comprising not only persons of this country most eminent in intellectual greatness, but representatives of other nations, where the art of eloquence had flourished for ages.
