latter,

Mr. Carson rose and said, that he must, in justice to himself, say a few words, after what had taken place. He was not the person who hid given utter ance to the emphatic word Rotesphierre." That expression had been u-ed by a gentleman on the other of the house, who, he wHsrsrtain would ve-

ver deny any word that had f.lien, c r that might fall from his lips. When such sentimants were deli ered. vho there that could control their feelings? He could not; and ivhcrn the hising to. k place, he conld not withhold iumseif from the expression of his sentiments What had they heard thisnighi? God Gad! Mr. C. exclaimed, they had heard it uttered upon that floor there, btfote that house in the fare of the American Congress, that all the talent, all Ihe virtue, all the patriotism and public spirit hich adorns this hall, ought to be swept away before any particle of ihe ConstttuJ (ion should be violated. And that, Mtj C. continued with increasing vehemence, was not all. The rivers of our country were to rnn with blood, and one half of

our fair population were to be swept away rather than that the constitution

should he violated. Why, the spirit of

jthe constitution was violated by that

man, by that man himself. And was it net notorious, that persons, far, far supe. nor in intellect and judgment to either him (Mr. Carson) or the member from Ohio, (Mr. Vinton.) has already beeo ?ioiateri. Has it not been ffpeatedly stated, that unconstitutional laws have beeo passed; has it not been so declared by a sovereign state, by mors than one sovereign stale T and yt it is to be said that our riveis are to run with blood, and ourselves to be swept away, and one half of the present population of country destroyed, rather than that ths constitute should be violated My God! s i Mr. C., to what conclusroos are we to arrive!
