Km u rem moved the foi.lovvinc RESOLUTIOX : RtsokeJ, That the select committee, ppointcd to draft a memorial relative to the public lands, be instructed to draft the fame, requesting, first, lo re duce and graduate (be price of the public lands, in the t Id land districts, according to the length of time thev have been in market, to actual settlers nid residents, so as to prevent specula tion; secondly, that when the publn debt shall be paid, or provided lor, to set apart, for the benefit of each of the new slates. '20 per cent, ol the sales of the public lands in their respective limi(s. to be applied as said states may deem most expedient for the benefit of their citizens; tbirdlv, that a dis1 ribution of the residue of the ?ah s. be made amongst all I ht new and old stales, in nronortion totla ii representatives in Congress. Mr. Kmbree apologised for being a v oung ne uiner. nut ii was lime lie said erne sett h t! sy stem should he adopted relative to the public lands. As lo the first object, the reduction in the price, there seemed to be but little difference in opinion That wa the main object, and the distribution may he made ipslrumontal to its accomplishment. The public lands have been in market 3G vears, and only about one fiftieth pari has been sold it would require ages to dispose of them. The plan of giving lo tlie new stales the twenty per cent, and their pait of the distribution before spoken of, would give lo Indiana more than one hundred and fifty thousand dollars per annum, after the graduation and reduction of the price of the lands; which, would discharge our slate taxes a; d h ave (or other pin poses more than one hundred thousand dollars per annum. It would give a fatal stab to nulification. When: is the sta'e.and where is the people thai would he willing lo nnllifv t i.ose law? w hit !i pav their taxes, educate tin ir childien, make their internal improvements and scatter money amongst them? But some insist that by contending for the whole we shall iinally succeed. This is not to be expected. It would be like a parent disinheriting his own offspring. If the principle is adoptetl of giving to each state the lands within her boundaries, we would lose our interest in the lands ly ing in the other new states, &c., ami also in the north western territory, w hii h contains bodies of land? that will not he dispo.-ed of lor ages to come, in consequence of their vast extent. Mr. Morrison said, he did not expect to hear a set speech on the merits of the question at this time. He was an prepared lo reply, but could not sutler the question io be taken without ma king a few remaiks in opposition to the gentleman's views. I he measure pro-p-i-ed in tin: ("list sentence received It is approbation, bui be mu-t differ in opin ion from tne concluding portion ol tne resolution. The public lands had ever bei n an i!em of charge against the Treasure ot I he Union; and at this m latent i? debtor, i xceediug eleven m Iho .? of !! ;is. 1 lie expense had bet-n neuned iy the extinguishment of Indian title, liie settlement ol claims, tlie poichase of Louisiana and Floiida and contingent expenses, as survey ing, -elling. &c. He asked, if the unequal distribution of that which belonged equally to all, would not be in contravention (o the decdsof cession and cornpaid by which these lands were placed at the disposal of the Government? N. York. Virginia, N. Carolina, Maryland and Geoigia expressly declared in their deeds of cession that these lands should always be kept as common treasure; and "should be disposed of for that purpose, ;.nd for no otlur use or purpose whatever." He believed
(his scheme of distribution to be illu-'
ive and deceptive. Tlie sum annually received from the sale of public hinds in Indiana is near seven hundred thou sand dollars. If the reduction princi ple should obtain and land be lowered, sav 50 per cent, it would leave in (lie pockets of our citizens the sum of three hundred .and fifty thousand dollars; whereas the gentleman's scheme would only return one hundred and fifty thousand, after hiking from (hem seven hundred thousand, which shows a balance in favor of reduction of two hundred thousand dollars. Mr. Morrison also plead the injustice of distribution, as operating unfavorably upon new states. We have thus endeavored to condense the substance of the foregoing speeches into as small a compass as possible, and now recommend them to our readers as worthy of an attentive perusal. Subjects of high importance are now occupying the attention of Congress. Mr'. Clay's Land Liill, the U. S. Bank and the Public Depo-iies are ;dl topics of animated discu-sion, and hid lair to consume a very liberal portion of (he present session. They are all subjects of (he very deepest interest, and we hope will soon be adjusted to the mutual satisfaction of the American people. Many able documents and speeches have appeared in relation to them, which we regret we have not room to publish; but we shall endeavor to present their substance as near as we can, as well as give every important movement that fills under our notice. We acknowledge the receipt of several valuable documents from our friends the Hon. Wm. Hendricks and Amos Lane at Washington, and D. V. Culley it Indianapolis. In the last sentence of the first para graph of our remarks in relation to Mr. illel's resolution in the last number, the words, "ami Mr. Culiev's on the ame subject," were inadvertently omit ted before, "ordered to a third reading in the Senate." Ow ing to a press of mat ler this week we are compelled to omit a number ol idvertisements. The following reply of the President io the Semite of the United Sta'es suf ficiently explains itself: Washington, Dec. 12, 1833. To the Senate of the United Stati s: I have attentively considered the re solution of the Senate of (he llth instant, requesting the President of the United blates (o communicate to the Senate "a copy of the paper which has been published, and which purports to have been read by him to the Hose's ol" the Executive Departments, dated the 13th day of September last, relating to the removal of ibe depo-ites of the public money from the bank of the United Slates and its officers." The Eqecntive is a co-otdiuulc and independent branch of the Government equally with the Senate: and I have oel to learn under a hat c.onstilutianal outhorilv that brunch of the Legi-I a'urc has a rigid to require of me an account of am communication, either verbal! v or in waiting, made to the lle-tis of I ) .'dartments, acting :is a Cabin) council. As well might I be re tjnirrd to detail to the Senate the free and private conversations I have held vii'i t!io-e officers on any sunjocl refilling to (heir duties ami mv own. Feeling my responsibility to the Ame rican people, I am willing upon all oc casions to explain to them the grounds of mv conduct: and I am willing upon ill proper occasions to give to either H imh of the Legislature anv inlorma lion in mv posses-ion (hat can he useful in the execution of the appropi iate du lies conlied to them. Knowing the conslitution.al rights of the Senate, I shall be the Inst man, un der any circumstances, to interfere w it! them. Knowing those of the Kxecu live, I shall at all times endeavor to maintain them agreeably to the provi sions of the Constitution, ami the solemn oath I have taken lo support and defend it. I am constrained, therefore, by a pro per sense pf" mv own self-respect, and of (he lights secured by the Constitu tion to (he Lxoculive brancn of tin Government, to decline a complianci with your request.
