To which the Speaker made the following reply,

Gentlemen--In responding to the resolution sanctioned by your approving voice, I cannot express feelingly as I would my own emotions, or the acknowledgments due to you. Strongly attached to the party, and the principles of the party, with which I am associated, it would be singular had I attained what has been my earnest desire, strict impartiality as the presiding officer of this House.

Grateful as is on all occasions the approbation of those who are entitled to our respect, and flattering as is this testimonial, it was not necessary to assure me of your decided partiality, the numer ous evidence of which have left an impression upon my heart which time cannot eradicate.

The duties of the Chair usually arduous, sometimes embarrassing, through your kind indulgence have been rendered easy of execution; and if my efforts faithfully and acceptably to discharge the duties devolving on me, present any claims for your thanks, I can never be insensible of the fact that I am under ten-fold obligations to each and all of you.

Our duties here draw to a close; soon we part not again to meet for years; some of us doubtless never in this sphere of action, but be assured Gentlemen, however widely we may be separated, whatever fortunes may await us, I shall recur with pleasure and with honest pride to the period we have passed together.

My kindest wishes are with you, and prayers that you may individally realize those blessings which are concomitants of industry, of virtue, and of patriotism.
