So it was _Resolved_, That this bill pass; that it be engrossed; and that the title thereof be, "An act to accommodate the PRESIDENT." Mr. SEDGWICK reported from the committee appointed for the purpose, the draft of an answer to the Address of the VICE PRESIDENT of the United States, on his retiring from the Senate; which was read. On motion, that it be printed for the use of the Senate, it was disagreed to. _Ordered_, That the report lie for consideration. WEDNESDAY, February 22. The Senate took into consideration the report of the committee, in answer to the Address of the VICE PRESIDENT of the United States, on his retiring from the Senate. On motion to recommit the report, it passed in the negative: and the report being amended, was adopted, as follows: SIR: The Senate of the United States would be unjust to their own feelings, and deficient in the performance of a duty their relation to the Government of their country imposes, should they fail to express their regard for your person, and their respect for your character, in answer to the Address you presented to them, on your leaving a station which you have so long and so honorably filled as their President. The motives you have been pleased to disclose which induced you not to withdraw from the public service, at a time when your experience, talents, and virtues, were peculiarly desirable, are as honorable for yourself, as, from our confidence in you, sir, we trust the result will be beneficial to our beloved country. When you retired from your dignified seat in this House, and took your leave of the members of the Senate, we felt all those emotions of gratitude and affection, which our knowledge and experience of your abilities and undeviating impartiality ought to inspire; and we should, with painful reluctance, endure the separation, but for the consoling reflection, that the same qualities which have rendered you useful, as the President of this branch of the Legislature, will enable you to be still more so, in the exalted station to which you have been called.
