Mr. Speaker,

The addition of the star of Kentucky to our federal constellation may with justice be greeted as an event worthy of our unanimous assent and celebration. I vote that the petition of the County of Kentucky for admission as the fourteenth State of this Union be approved, and recommend all Whigs to follow so.

I yield my time to the chair.

Mr. Speaker,

On this question I defer to the wisdom of the gentleman from New Hampshire, that the proposed amendment by Mr. Jay is neither conducive to the end he purports to seek, nor compatible with our theory of the rights of States. I vote that the amendment be defeated, and recommend all Whigs to follow according to their conscience.

I yield my time to the chair.
