argued that a separation of the Govern

that the euslf-dv of the public money in

towards the other that wan ten and unnecessary spirit of hostility which was unfortunately engendered in the bosom of the . .... i
te 1'resident ol the Lulled r-nates.
1 am admonished, sir, by my exhaust
ed strengh, and bv I tear, your more ex
hausted patience, to hasten to a close.
Mr. IhtMdent, a oreat novel, and untried
measure, is persevei ingly urged upon the acceptance of Congress. That it is preg
nant wall tremendous consequences, lor good or for evil, is undeniable, and admit
ted bv ail. We firinlv believe that it will
be fatal to the best interests of ibis country, and ultimately subversive of its liber
ties. You, who have been greatly disappointed in cither measures of equal pro
mise, can only hone, in the donbdul and
uncertain future, that its operation may
prove salutary. Since it was first pro
posed at the extra session, the whole peo
ple have not had an opportunity of pass ing in judgement upon it at iheir elections
As far as they have, they expressed
their unqualified disapprobation. From
Maine to the State ol Mississippi, its eon
demnation has been loudly thundered
forth. In every intervening election, the administration has been defeated, or ils former majorities neutralized. Maine has spoken: New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Ohio, Rhode Island, Mis.-issippi and Michigan, all these Slates, in tones and terms not to be misundeistooil, have denounced the measure. The key-stone State (God bless her) lias twice proclaimed her rejection of it; once at the polls, and once through her legislature. Friends and foes of the administration have united in condemning- il. And, at the very mo
ment when I am addressing you, a large meeting of thu late supporters of llie administration headed by the distinguished gentleman who presided in the electoral college which gave the vote of thai patriotic State to President Van Buien, are assembling in Philadelphia, lo protest solemnly anainst the passage of this bill. Is it riht that, under such circumstances.
it should tie loree.l upon a reluctant but free and intelligent people? Is it right that this Senate, constituted as it now is, should give its sanction to the measure. I say it in no disrespectful end taunting sense, tmt we are entitled, according to the latest expressions of the popular will, and in virtue of manifestations of opinion deliberately expressed bv State Legislatures, to n vote of oo against the bid; and
I am ready lo enter, with nnv Senator, friendly to the administration, into details j to prove the assertion. I
