There is much difference in meaning between subject and object as-well-as between subjection and objection. A large representation came before the House and offered several objections to-the bill. His general knowledge, and his information upon all matters pertaining to-the United States government were acknowledged. They represent several different societies by their dress. Whatever they began they finished. His opinion upon all subjects was prized because of his extended knowledge.
