RANDOM SKETCHES OF THE TWENTY- j]
EIGHTH CONGRESS. "
I BY A MEMBEB.
I In one of those exciting debates of spontaneous r
I eruption, so to speak, that occurred not unfrequent- t
I ly in the early stages of the first session, Mr. Wise r
I declared that "the last census had dwarfed Virgi- c
nia," and he went on in a manner peculiar to him- c
ft self, and with an eloquence that distinguishee hie I
I! congresaional career, to pour out his regrets that do- r
minion waa passing from his natire land, and to ex- d
' soon overthrow the limitations of the constitution, v
and hasten the government into the vortex of cen- t!
tralism and consolidation. Of the justice of his fears u
I give no opinion; but his speech mads a strong im- f
pression upon my mind. It is natural to admire and n
commend patriotism in any age?in any land. We h
love to contemplate the brave and virtuous man con- ?
tending for his own hearthstone?for the graves of h
his fathers, even in the far time and distant country; r
and it is a cold heart that does not throb to the t
shamrock .with the oppressed son of the Emerald a
Isle?warm to the Tartan with the illustrious Ar- a
gyle?or respond with the Prank to the grandly sol- r
emn strains of the Marseilles Hymn. I confess the e
weakness, if such it was, that, listening to the voice B
of Mr. Wise, strangely modulating from the Shrill, 0
piercing alto of Randolph, to the deepest baas of t
guttural cadences, I felt and feared as a Virginian! e
Virginia had given a long and resplendent line of n
statesmen to the republic. She had vindicated, rj
with a power unsurpassed, in 1798-9, the wisdom c
and justice of limited government. To her 1 had \
looked as the "holy land of my political faith." d
Her decline I could not regard with indifference. a
Although the census baa dwarfed her represent- s
ation, I soon became satisfied that the standard of u
her intellect had not declined; that it towered still ?
nobly in the ascendent, "as in her former day of j,
glonr."
If called upon to introduce to the reader one
among her distinguished living statesmen entirely
worthy of her ancient renown, whose clear intellect, r
* energetic eloquence, and cool sagacity would elevate
him to an equal rank with Madtsona, Taylors, f
Gileses, end Koanes, I should?disclaiming the intention
of passing invidious judgment?designate
George C. Droragoole, whose district lies upon the '
southern border, where bis petaonal popularity baf- *
ties all open opposition to his preferment. ?
Gifted with faculties equal to any emergency, that '
shins the brighter as occasion presses?that grapple
with and comprehend, in all the intricacy of detail, ,
the greatest measures with singular facility. Gene- :
- ral Dmmgoole appears, nevertheless, more brilliant
and successful in repartee than in argument. This 8
is attributable more, perhaps, to habit, than to the
predominant cast of the mind. There are but few c
' men so capable, from ready resources, to turn the a
shafts of assault upon himself or his friends against h
. his adversaries. His denunciations ere bold, and n
sometimes severe to harshness; but thev aje alwavs t'
baaed upon facta, which arc aeldom, if ever, con- d
tested. n
Hia eloquence ia attractive only in ita matter and j!
the evident aincerity of hia convtctiona. The con- |(
tinuoua monotony of hia voice in speaking deprives
hia efforts of the advantage of those embellishments *
which the effective manner of Wise, Rhett, or '
Adams, gives to their forensic displays. Hs is the "
champion of his side of the House, let who will be
the rhoaen leader of the party majority. The House
- v may designate, wisely and worthily, a Jones or a j
- McKay, but all trying occasions elect Oromgoole
the lender. And nobly does he bear himself. His 0
' combinations are characterized by the wise forecast
of Soult, and he presses the assault with the terri
hie impetuosity of Ney. In unpremeditated dis- *'
| enasiona, (which are frequently interesting from the
relief they give to the irksome routine of con- j(
. gressiooal life,) he is temper paratiu?on the alert;
and seated in a quarter of the hall where the eye of n
the Speaker moat naturally rests, (a slight remove N
from the centre paeeage on the left,) he never faila of
recognition when he rises in his place to address the
chair.
When Mr. Adams addresses the House, and ?
hurls his denunciations at the men and measures of *1
the democratic party obnoxious to his displeasure, :
Drnmgoole watches him from hia place with a J
steady eye and Cxrd position. He taken no note of ,
the debate, but retains every material point and fact .
in the storehouse of memory. At the proper lime
he replies, never harshly, often successfully, slways (
ably. '
1 have said that General D. excels in repartee. I
would not lie understood as disparaging hiaeapacity
for argument. His set speeches are characterized
by great power, and are models of reasoning, con- ^
denaatiiin, and jierspieuity of illustration. He ia
unrivalled an a parliamentary tactician in this country.
The master of rules and orders, his word j
seems to give the law, and frequently silences fac
tion. J
1 le is a disciple of the strict constitutional achool r
of Jefferson, Macon, and John Taylor, and of that (
uolitical faith which looks for social hanninesn. nnt _
ill a splendid, but in a cheap and sparing govern- "]
iiieni,unirammellrd debate, free thought, equal gen- t
eral lawa, and in the elevation of the individual man t
above the control of aordid interest and complicated ,
social ^machinery. It ia not too much to aay, all ,
thinga* considered, that he ia the ableat champion of |
constitutional republicanism that haa appeared for t
many years on the floor of Congreaa. An ardent ,
whig, now in hie grave?and, by the way, a young t
man ofprombe and parts?on one occasion denom- |
mated Qan. D., in true Western prase, "the wheel |
horse of the democratic party."
Qan. D.'? personal appearance is prepossessing, |
and the constant sallies of his wit, which are bereft ,
of the poison of sarcasm by his generous nature, ,
enliven hia intercourse with friends. He ia of ths ,
ordinary atatore, not far from forty yean of art, of ,
fair complexion, and a bachelor! His polities! as- ,
aociatee bars Ml him, on occasion, aa one of lha ,
fallicrj of the party!
The whig papers of recent date have animadvert- ,
ed upon Qen. D as a duelist. It ia not denied, I |
believe, that he was onoe engaged in "an aflTair of ,
honor," and there are circumstances related of it |
thet would go far to extenuate bis conduct, even in (
the opiniona of a community where that kind of ,
"personal satisfaction" is not only disreputable, but |
odious. I am not in possession of tham in sufficient
particularity to give them currency. It is a
common remark, however, in metropolitan eirclaa,
that, ever since the rencontre, in whieh hia adver- i
aery fell, he haa constantly maintained the widow I
and children of the deceased.
It will be readily inferred from the foregoing im- <
perfect impreaeions, that the public interest wiTever 1
Jind a faithful champion in the person of this distinguished
son of Virginia. Honesty, vigilance, and
' frankness, combined with a moral courage which no
cvcdU or vicissitudes of parties hare ever taught <
' fear, characterize hia whole public career, so far as a
limited experience in affairs may be permitted to
