ts death put all power in the hands of the party which brought upon the country the issues which terminated in war. The writer of this had been a Whig, and felt the keen pang of mortification at beholding that powerful organization, in which he had put so much faith, melt away, like snow before the sun, and pass into the creeks and the rivers and the subterranean streams.
