THE WESTBItN SUN

VIXCEXXE 6, DECEMBER 16, 1826. On Monday last the Legislature of our state convened at Indianapolis the following abstract of their proceedings, is extracted from the Indiana Journal of the 5th instant. .V SEXATE, December 4. John II. Thompson, Lieut, govr, took the chair, and all the members being present, they proceeded to elect their officers, when, on counting the ballots it appeared that Jas. Dill was unanimously circled Secretary, John H. Farnham, assistant Sccty. by a majority of 5 votes James" M. Ray, enrolling Sccty. unanimously and Chas I Hand, Door Keeper, on the fourth ballot. IX LOWER HOUSE, Dec. 4 A quorum appearing, who having produced their credentials, were sworn in, and proceeded to the election of their officers, when, upon the 6th ballot H. H. Moore, Esq. from Harrison county, was duly elccted Speaker Hy. P. Thornton, and James F I). Lanier, were unanimously elected principal and assistant Clerks II II Talbot enrolling Clerk on the 3d ballot and James Ward, Door Keeper, on the fourth bollot. December 5 No business of public in terest, transacted in the Senate ih'u day. House of Rcfiresentatix'es. On the meeting of the House this clay, the Senate came down into the Rcpicsentative's Hall where, acccrdh g to a resolution adopted on yesterday, the Rev. George Rush, opened the session by solemn prayer. A resolution was received from the senate, fixing on to-morrow morning as the time lor electing a Senator to the congress of the U. S which was at first concurred sidered, and laid on the table. Another resolution was also received, 1 informing the House, that they hud appointed a committee to wait on his excel- ' lency the governor, and inform him that : . ' - . . . both houses had organized, and were rca dy to receive any communication he had to make. n reply to which, Mr Ciaig introduced the following resolution : Resolved, That it is the opinion of this house that Jas B. Ray, csqr. who is now acting in, and filling the office of governor of this stac, lias forfeited his right to iCt in, and til! the said office of governor, by accepting of, and exercising, ai Mi-is-sincwa (during a part of the year 1826,) the office of commissioner under the U States, together with Lwvis Cass, esr. govr. of Michigan territory, and John Tipton, of fort Wayne, Indian agent, to treat with the Potawatama and Miami tribes of Indians, for the purchase of lands lying within the state of Indiana, and that the Senate be informed of this opinion, and their opinion reqm sted. This resoluticti apprarf. to me, calculated only to produce ifTiaiion, divide the house into parties and procasiinute legislation. Since t!)c above was in type, I have seen a letter ft oo; G. V. Johnston. Lsqr. of the 8lh the question upon the resolution of Mr. Cia:g, was dciided in the ncg .live, 28, against 31. Upon this question our representatives divided, iieckes being in the affrnative, and Johnston in the negative. The governor delivered his message on the 8ih I expect to re ceive it in time for the next paper. :o OS .-- COMMUNICATION. rfr.

An a ncrK'.mcnt was effercd, declar'mp- that the office of goetn r had been forfeited, or vacared, lv Mr Ray, ! on account of his treating with the Indians on the Wabaih, on behalf of the Uni ted States " Xow it isknovrnhe held no office imJnitcd Stares ; he acted upon in ! dcr the U i:tructions from 'lie War Department ; he held no commission, he to k no oath ; lie accomplished the wishes of those who desire to see our state happy and prosperous ; he vi as not out of his own juiisdiction and exercised the functions ol governor during the whole time of the tre aty. Vet s onc individuals who hold stations nearer the correct definitions of ;.n off.cer, than his employment when tn-at ing, have now occupied th. n c d..vs. r.t the cost to the pc onle of about S?5 per day, arguing whether J IV R y i Jiiil Rovr k this too, when evci v man v. ho looks ino our constitution will discover that the lower house can only impeach ; tlic Senate must decide. This folly leads to

confusion and excitement, and is really

disgraceful to the state, and ruinous to OUS to menti-! Senate i delibeiate legislation. " About the same time the forementi oned resolution was sent down, the Senate i

sent down another to enter upon the e- . JL5 ttiends, St the public, that they have lection of a Senator on this day. This recommenced their school.
