A flower of Sierra Leone
"...the rare Scadoxus cinnabarinus. This unusual member of the Amaryllis family is almost unknown in cultivation. Its spectacular, fireworks-like flower cluster rises above attractive leaves that resemble a mini banana plant. This showy species comes from warm forests in tropical Africa. It is found in only a few plant collections, and is almost never seen for sale." ~ strangewonderfulthings.com/377.htm

Ended a debate between Senators Daniel Webster of Massachusetts and Robert Hayne of South Carolina.
Daniel Webster won the day, but with hindsight, modern citizens may side with Hayne.
Hayne re-enforced the idea of a confederation while Webster defended the idea of a federation.
In a confederacy the people may overcome tyrants quicker than in a federation, for in THAT condition, do the words of the Unites States constitution have TEETH. #AntiFederalistPaper9 http://resources.utulsa.edu/law/classes/rice/Constitutional/AntiFederalist/09.htm "We [the Aristocratic party of the United States,] do not much like that sturdy privilege of the people -- the right to demand the writ of habeas corpus. We have therefore reserved the power of refusing it in cases of rebellion, and you know we are the judges of what is rebellion...."
