The Senate then took up the resolu

te: mly in faror of the district system, but on such a mighty question and this was one that increased daily in magnitude it could hardly be expected that in a Government like this it could be done at once. The gentleman from Missouri might satisfy himself that this question must be decided by Congress some time or other. The cases he hod cited in England were certainly true, but the comparison did not hold with the character of the two Governments, and the power of the People. In England the right of voting was limited to a few, and there were many boroughs which had but a single vote. Here, nothing of that kind existed; here, every body votes.

Mr. Chandler then moved to strike out Cincinnati & Louisville, so as to confine the operation of the bill to St. Louis; as the bill was allowed to be an experiment, it ought to be tried on as contracted a scale as possible. After some discusson, in which Messrs. Findlay. Holmes, Smith. Harrisoji, lazewell, and Broun took a part, a division of the question being called for, it was tir?t taken cn striking out Cincinnati, and decided in the negative, aves 13, noes 18: it was then taken on the other part of the amendment, and decided in

On my requesting to have it in the former way, a dish was brought to me covered with the most beautiful cream; but to my surprise upon tasting it, I discovered it had been seasoned with salt instead of sugar. 1 expressed my surprise at this, and was informed that it was the Oosbeck custom to sweeten only the tea which is drank plain, but if milk or cream be added, salt is used instead of sugar.

slon in the House had been such that it was not deemed advisable to take any further step to get a definitive vote on it tins session; but it was deemed advisable to keep the subject in a situation for being acted upon at the earliest possible day at the next session, earnest! v and vigorously, and to have it decided one way cr the other. It was with a vievv to this resolution, and some other subjects of importance, which it was probable wptil'J not be finished at this

tession, the subjects remaining for discus

said, should not this rule pass, he pledged himself to the Senate, and to the .American People, that he would again move the reference of the subject to a

committee, and have it disposed of as early as possible. It was here, Mr. B. said, as it was with their great prototype the British Parliament the greatest difficulty in getting any thing done, was

to una the ri-ht time for doing it. When the great question of reforming the Brit

ish House of Commons was brou

it was agreed all around that the repre

sentation ought to be reformed, but the difficulty was as to the right time of ac

complishing it. During the American war, it was the wrong time, and after

the French Revolution, broke out, it was

the wrong time still. This resolution,

Mr. B. said, was introduced two years ago and it 'was then deemed an improper time, because the Presidential Election woiild g )on comp or?. It was again introduced soon after, & then it was an imnro-

without that, all is empty profession. We must, for the purpose of the. Election make all the stales of the same size, which would be the effect of the district system and then, and then only, can we give the election of President and Vice President to the People, preserve the purity of the system, and, in reality, restore the balance of power among the States to the footing on which it stood at the adoption of the Constitution. Believing that the desire to take the election from the House had sunk deep in

That gentleman would take an interest in the discussion and passage of the bill, bet Mr. B. said, to his certain knowledge, that gentleman was unable from indisposition, to takeany

tne disposition ot the resolution proposed bv the Chairman. The advanced peri

The progress which had been made in the subject in the other House, was well known to the Senate. The result of its deliberation satisfied him, that, if there was time sufficient to act definitively upon, the subject here, nothing, efficient

He referred to the subject of abolition of imprisonment for debt, which he wished to ro pari passu, with these other great measures. There were three things. Mr. J. said, which were necesarv to perpetuate this Government: To give to the People whether in the district

or general ticket to give to the People the selection of their rulers ; and, when the People proved recreant and could not govern themselves at the polls, without the intervention of a third party, he said, let the government go down. Another subject was. theabnlil inn rf i inn iM- !

sonment ior debt. He wished that the libert y of the ameriran citizen, as regarded his personal safety, should be more

sacred than that of -the Roman citizen.'

l he third of these important subjects was, the revival of, what he knew never would be revived, the old compensation law. He wished now to inquire, whether it would be in order (supposing the rule lately proposed by the gentleman

from Missouri not to pass) to refer this

subject to a certain day, say, the second Monday of December next ? because hei

wished to call wp the subject of imprison

The Senate then resumed the consideration of the bill "to establish certain ii.. . . .

collection districts in the States of

Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and Missouri."

Mr. Harrison offered a few remarks, urging the benefits that would be derived by the People of the Western country from the passage of the bill. Mr. Tazezicll inquired whether there was a single sea vessel owned in the

State of Ohio, or a single merchant importing goods from a foreign country.

ii there was not, what was the use of establishing a custom house at Cincinnati? Mr. Harrison answered, there was no

person who owned a sea-vessel, nor was

there, to his knowledge, a merchant importing goods from a foreign country, but there were merchants of a great capital, ready to embark in the business,

and who were only waiting the passage of this bill to enter into operations in that

way. there were also steamboats of

considerable size at Cincinnati, capable of going to Havana, as soon as the dilliculty of passing the Palls should be obviated.
