ation of the currency. His views upon this question were widely repudiated in his State, whose legislature formally called on him to change his views or resign his seat. Although he refused to obey his legislature in either respect, he was re-elected to the Senate in 1882 by a much larger majority than he received six years before. In 1885 he was appointed Secretary of the Interior, and in 1887 an associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States. He died in Vineville, Ga., Jan. 23, 1893. On Feb. 15, 1878, he addressed the president of the Senate as follows: Mr. President, having already expressed my deliberate opinion at some length upon this very important measure now under consideration, I shall not trespass upon the attention of the Senate further. I have, however, one other duty to perform; a very painful one, I admit, but one which is none the less clear. I hold in my hand certain resolutions of the legislature of Mississippi, which I ask to have read.
