The idea of this appointment was suggested to him on the evening preceding its occur- 20 rence ; but he supposed it to be, and treated it, ra- ther as the light and free suggestions of some inti- mates, than the fixed purpose of the members ; and he took his seat at the clerk's table as usual. When the nomination was to be made, he was privately requested to retire, but, still under the same impres- sion, refused ; and the person nominating him had risen to speak, and was embarrassed by the awk...- wardness of his position, which the Speaker perceiv- ing, leaned forward and requested Mr. Wirt to leave his seat for a few minutes. He did so ; the nomi- nation was made, and seconded by two of the most respectable of the members, and carried without op- position — a most gratifying and uncommon evi- dence of attachment and confidence in the learning, talents, and virtues of a man, not a native of the State ; not then quite thirty years of age ; without a particle of extraneous influence, which his own cha- racter had not produced ; and in a community abounding with men eminently qualified for the sta- tion.
