I care not myself for these transient honors. They come and go like rainbows. They make and unmake Congressmen. Let Congressmen come and go! Nor should we care so much how it may concern one race or another. nor how it may affect Ireland in her landed system or otherwise. I desire. sir. to rise to the height of an American argument. that we are. in passing this resolution for the prompt trial or prompt release of American citizens. vindicating. not Irishmen. not Ireland. not naturalized or native citizens. but citizenship. We vindicate anew ulagna Charma. We vindicate citizenship and the bills of right.
