Vinton then moved that the Speaker's announcement of the death of the Hon. John Quincy Adams be entered on the journal. This also was agreed to unanimously, and then the House adjourned to Saturday. 21 In the Senate, after the formal annunciation of the death of Mr. ADAMS had been made- Mr. Davis, of Massachusetts, rose and thus addressed that body: Mr. President: By the recent affliction of my colleague, (Mr. Web- ster, ) a painful duty devolves upon me. The message just delivered from the Hou...se proves that the hand of God has been again among us. A great and good man has gone from our midst. If, in speaking of John Quincy Adams, I can give utterance to the language of my own heart, I am confident I shall meet with a response from the Senate. He was born in the then Province of Massachusetts, while she was girding herself for the great Revolutiona'-y struggle which was then be- fore her. His parentage is too well known to need even an allusion; yet I may be pardoned if I say, that his father seemed born to aid in the ■establishment of our free Government, and his mother was a suitable companion and co-laborer of such a patriot.
