Our family of states is already large enough to create embarrassment in the Senate, and a republic should not hold dependent provinces or possessions.
Our country, our whole country, and nothing but our country" has been the watchword and creed of my public life.

What I have written is no doubt clouded with partisanship, but I would not be honest if I did not express my attachment to my party.
