repeat now, what I thcn said, that after
eight years of fctbloaiid int-iii clual efforts to
rccovcr Textis, it was time that the war
shoiild have ceased. The Ulllltd States had
a direct iiitcrcst in the question.
The coatiguity ofthe two Nations to our

volve our peace. Unjust suspicions were

have been obvious to all that the exhaus-
