COMPROMISE BILL SMUGGLED THROUGH THE HOUSE.
Mr. Randolph's opposition to the Missouri Bill, with the obnoxious clause in it prohibiting slavery beyond a certain line, was very de- cided. In common with the southern members, he regarded the whole proceeding as unconstitutional — destructive of the vital in- terests of the South — a dangerous precedent, that might be used for still greater encroachments hereafter — and would listen to no com- promise on the subject. One night, when the House was
...engaged in debating the great question, and there seemed but a faint prospect of its adjustment, Mr. Randolph, it is said, accosted Mr. Clay, the Speaker of the House, who, for a moment, was absent from the chair, and said to him, « Mr. Speaker, I wish you would quit the chair, and leave the House ; I will follow you to Kentucky, or any where else. " Mr. Randolph was told, in reply, that his proposition was a very seri- ous one ; and that if he would meet Mr. Clay the next morning, in the Speaker's room, the latter would converse with him fully on the whole subject.
