Winfall (search for this): article 3
ck, of the same State, and was in turn replied to by him. Mr. Collayer presented a petition from Vermont, asking the adoption of the Border State resolutions, which he opposed in his speech. The President's Message was taken up. Mr. Winfall, of Texas, replied to Johnson, of Tenn., in a befitting manner, saying that Senator misrepresented South Carolina, and was extremely tart upon him as an ally of the Republicans. He argued at great length in defence of the constitutional rightna, and was extremely tart upon him as an ally of the Republicans. He argued at great length in defence of the constitutional right of secession. He defended Davis, of Miss., (now absent,) from the assaults of Johnson, and compared the latter to a jackal preying on a dead lion. [In consequence of applause the galleries were cleared.] Mr. Winfall continued, saying it was no object to the South whether they had peace or war. Cotton was a sure defence in war or trade. Adjourned.

A Sad Casualty and loss of life. --On Saturday last, Edward Williamson, employed in the box-making and planing establishment of Mr. Mitchell, at Petersburg, Va., met with a fatal accident while attending to his duties.

Whewell (search for this): article 9
Matriculation of the Prince of Wales. --The Prince of Wales made quite a brilliant entry into Cambridge on the 19th ultimo, on his way to his college. The bells of the town were rung, and flags and banners displayed, while the municipal authorities, in the servile phrascology in use abroad, "humbly craved permission to offer to his Royal Highness" their congratulations. The Prince was then duly matriculated a member of the University, swearing to maintain the supremacy of the Sovereign, her heirs and successors, the Church of England, as by law established, and the privileges and immunities of the University. After this, there was a regular scramble among the ladies present for the pen with which the Prince signed the matriculation book. The Prince, we are told, put on his academical robes, went through the buildings with the Master of the College, Rev. Dr. Whewell, and ended the day in the Tennis Court with Gen. Bruce.
