He was a young and inexperienced officer in the Mexican war. honored with a very high commission. and. so far as I know. or as any other man knows. he discharged his duty intelligently and courageously. Ho returned to our State at the close of the war. and by his party was elevated to a seat in the Senate of the United States. it was found then that he bad not been naturalized for a sufficient number of years to take a seat. and he returned to private life. and was again elected by the democratic party to this body. and served out one term hero. Be has also been a Senator. I believe. from the State of Minnesota.
