Congressman Representative Kendall of your State is the personification of mas terly inactivity He has distin guished himself thus in se curing by some means a lot of speeches purporting to be his print ed in the Congressional Pecord The most constant visitor to the halls of Congress never heard him deliver a speech and doubtless no one labors under the supposition that he ever did make a speech except some peo ple in Nevada and elsewhere who un doubtedly have received certain pam phlets from Kendall setting forth that the Hight Honorable individual the Representative in Congress from Nevada had made such and such a speech on this and that great ques tion All those printed circulars of may succeed in convincing some people that he is a legislator of some account "but if he is there
