it was that the iron entered the old man's

only to give his own life, but lo take the
lives of other men, in ivderM'i give liberty

Now, what is that calculated to do ? I
will not assume w h-tt it was intended to
do. I presume that the Senator's motive
was entirely correct; but what ell'eot is
Mioli!anf:u!ifje calculated to have? It is
to lit ijilnen the idea of this old felon to

they did occur. We a- ume this to be a

To show all the facts in regard to thn

to the Senate the nflidavits of (some of tho
