Mr. BUTLER. Not at all. Mr. FOOTE. If the gentleman did, the paper would repudiate him in turn, and he might lose as much as he would gain by the proceeding. [ Laughter. ] Then, the paper, not standing repudiated, stands tacitly sanc tioned now. Where is the gentleman at this moment ? Has he gained any advantage worth boasting of by his unseasonable interrogations? I now propose to read one or two toasts drunk at public meetings in South Carolina, which may be looked upon as more or less indica...tive of public sentiment there. These toasts need defence very much, in my judgment ; and I must be allowed to say, that when my absent friends are assailed in my presence as I intend to assail the drinkers of these toasts, I would defend them, or acknowledge them frankly to have been guilty of conduct indefensible, just as I would defend the honorable Senator from South Carolina, as he well knows, if he should happen to be unjustly assailed in my hearing. Mr. BUTLER. I wish to say now, at the beginning, that I do not in tend to be the defender, advocate, and eulogist of everybody in South Carolina.
