'I I1UNTEK, Sneaker of the House of liepreaentatives. Ull. M. JOHNSON, Vice President of the United Statcx, and President of the Senate. ArPRovED, March 3d. 1811. M. VAN 13 U KEN. DEFEtfKED REMARKS. IN SENATE, Monday, March 15, 1811. Mr. Preston rose and addressed the Sc nate as follows: It is, I am sure, painfully within the recollection of the Senate, that a few days since a very unpleasant collision occurred on this llnor between the Senator from Kentucky and the Senator from Ala bama. Any interruption of the habitual and characteristic harmony of this body, or the parliamentary decorum of its proceed ings, is, under any circumstances, deeply to be regretted, hut especially in the pres ent case, inasmuch as the manifestation of heat occurred between Senators ol such long and distinguished standing. It mijhl well be sopp srrd that nothing hut mistake or accident could have led to si'.c'.i a result; and thoroughly convinced of this, I risti, Mr. President, to state my conviction ol the cxij'.vace of mi-apprchensiou, and to ::ly ibe mode in wl ich it occar- j 0:i lite occasion alluded to, the Senator from Kentucky, conceiving that the re marks of the Senator from Alabama were calculated a;id intended to bt iejorious to his character, and personally offensive, re torted in language of direct affront lan guage which I am convinced he could not have employed, but under a deep sense of injury. In this, view of the remarks of the Senator from Alabama, 1 believe he was mistaken. Indeed I am convinced, from information which has casually come to my possession, lhat the Senator from Ala bama did not intend to be persor.iliy offen sive. At the bottom of this affair, there lore, there is a misapps ehensim, which I announce with pleasure, and In the confi dent belief that, being announce I, ihe hon orable and distinguished Senators will pr-r-t'Hit no personal di.iieulty io ar;est an ;ei jus ment which is earne-tlv der. an led ov the S'in i'eand ihe coun ry. Air. Clay said lie shared wilh ti e Sena tor from t?outh Carolina Mr. PnMoifj in the regret which he had .oanifested, on ac count of the occurrence, d.sturbing the usual harmony and good feeling which prevailed in the Senaie, m which h,i had alluded; and be bore, wHi pleasure, testi mony to the honorable j;id high minded feelings which had pronpted that Senator to make the appeal which he had just pre sented. Before he (Mr. C.) proceeded to respond particularly to that appeal, he wished io submit a few general observations to the Senate in regard to the privileges of Con gressional or Parliamentary debate. Every Senator had the moit perfect right to speak with the utmost freedom of those who were in power; he mifht denounce them as arbitrary, wicked, and incompe tent, and their measures as tyrannical, cor rupt, and ruinous to the bast interests of the country. So it was eqially the right of every member to deliver lis sentiments without reserve on tha character of all per sons not members of the holy, but whose names or characters were connected with the subject under debate, and all brought before the Senate as candidates for appoint ment to office. All this a member has a right lo do under no other respon sibility than that which his own con science and public opinion impose. But while ihis right was clear jnd undeniable, was es-ential to the due discharge of offi cial duty, and was in no ease to be restrain eJ, the same liberty did no' extend to the language of Senators towards each oilier, or in reference i tiie'ir motives. In speak ing to or of each o:her, the utmost respect and decorum ought ever to be preserved, all personality avoided, anu especially ail imputation of improper motives. Under these impressions as to tf le privileges of debate, and guided by these rules. Mr. C. had spoken, a few days since, of the elder Editor of the Globe newspaper, whoirr it was then proposed to dismiss from ihe of fice of Printer to the Senate. Had not lhat individual been thus legitimately and directly before the body, he should have forborne, as he had always hitherto, in his puolic sladon, forborne, to say a word in regard io him or the paper which he edits. Notwithstanding ten years of the most en paralleled abuse and wanton and unscrupu lous attacks of himself, Mr. C. had remain ed silent; and so he should still have re mained: but when the name of that person was directlv before the Senate, and his character and conduct of a public journal became a legitimate subject for its conside ration, he bad felt it to be his right to speak of him in the terms he had dune. When, on the next dav, the Senator from Alabama (Mr. King) addressed the Senate, Ii2 must say that, while that gentleman was speaking, he had thought that there was, on his part, a studied, a premed itated, and, as he then believed, a precon certed design lo make an assault upon him and his character And when the Senator concluded by in?tituting a comparison of Mr. O. to a man whom be had, bu the day before, declared to be infamous, and of whom he had spoken as a common libeller. 1 of Ins papfr as libelous, be did not doubt that his object was a personal ffciov to Mr C. It whs under this impiessiou lhat Mr. C. had addressed tc the Cha;r some remarks which fie v tended as a deliberate offence to that Senator. But it was due to the Senator from Ala bama, as well as to himself, lo state lhat he had sine received sati-factory information, on which he placed implicit reliance, thai there had been no purpose or iiiientii'o mi the part of that Senator to offer any person al affront to Mr. C. or to cast the s!tghl"si imputation on his character or honor. Mr. C. had, therefore, been mistaken as to ihe design which he had suppostd that Senator to entertain; and be must have entirely mis apprehended the language employed. Rea dy, therefore, at all times promptly to re pair an injury, as he hoped he ever should be to repel an indignity, and always taking more pleasure to repair than t repel, and without any regard to the nicely ol mere technical forms, lo which those acquainted with him well knew he never attached great importance under the circumstances as thus explained, ami with the understanding which be now had of the real intentions of that Senator, it was with infinite pleasure he now declared every epithet in the least derogatory io him, to his honor, or to his characier, to be withdrawn. Mr. King srii.I: I concur with the Sena tor from Kentucky as t tiie duty which everv Sena or owes to himself and to the b ;dy of whicn he is a member. He shor.U studiously avoid ail personalities, and keep himself strictly within the rules ofonh-.r, fc never depart frooi decorum in debate. I j have long been a member of the Senate, & i I can fearlessly appeal to my broihcr Sena-1 siato red. tors to say, whether on any occasion, I have violated prescribed rules, or been gaff, ty of indecorum in debate. The Senator from Kentucky, frcin who ever he received the information has not been misinformed. That Senator havrn'sr, witti bis characteristic frankness, explicitly' withdrawn the injurious expression iwed by him, 1 now feel myself at liberty losfaTc, and 1 do it in the same spirit of frankness v. thai nothing which was said by me was in- tended lo be personally offensive to Hist Senator; nor was it my design, in any man ner, to dei og.-.te. from his character as a gen tleman or man of honor. 1 make ibis stale mem vit:i ph:;-s,irr; for, while I am always prepared to defend my honor when assail ed, I carelully avoid attacking others.

LIXCOLXTOX. WEDNESDAY, MAHCII 31,1811 Democratic Republican Nomination, FOR CONGRESS 0. W. CALDWELL, OF MECKLENBURG COUNT V. DISMISSAL OF BLAIR & RIVES.: We have not space to allow us to lay -" before our readers any considerable part of ' the debate which was had, during the late Executive Session of the Senate of ihe ' United States, on the resolution introduced ! by Mr. Mangum, lo remove Blair and : Kives as printers to that body for the en- -suing tw.) years. Did our columns permit it, it would give us much pleasure io do so, for thai debate shews with what great aoiliiy "ihe right" was vindicated by the Democratic party, and with how liule re gird for justice "the wrong" was main tained and perpetrated by the Federalists. So long ago as 1819, a joim resolution : was entered imo by boih Houses of Con---gress, that, at the close of each Congress,-, each House should elect its printer for ihe next Congress; anil mis resolution Tuls been observed by tre Senate from that day until '. the 3rd of Mareli 1811. Twice during : this period at the close o( the last Sessions of two Congresses, the Federal party hath a majority; and accordingly elected prin. . ters of ttieir political stamp; and, though the Democrats hat a majority in each en-. -suing Session, no attempt or offer was -made by them to dismiss the Federal prin- ters, it beiHg considered by them in the. light of "a contract" between the Senate -and the printers; and, theiefore, though they bad the physical power, they had not i "the right" to remove them. It is not unworthy of remark, that, twice- since the adoption of the joint resolution abo?e referred to, a proposition has been : made, to repeal it; and, on both, these oc casions, the Federal or Whig party have voled acainst ite repeal. But what now do we se': ? U'licn the. last regular Congress was ?hcu t to close, be Senate, in conformity to a law of iis own making and under which ii h:n! acini f r the las twenty-two y.-ars, proceeded: to eKct' -ii -i us punier-, for the next two years, wbf u Blair aod R;t-s were du ly chosen, '- !: tiled moo bund lor ihe regular ami u"p. r i!i-t-l,ig? of me doues an l this l.

On ihe 4ih of "';IVf.;, , .sit ih St naie met to afcsi-t tin P; -oient in forming hi Cabinet, bill the majority had passed to the Fedeia! party; and, on the same dayr a resolution was introduced, that B air and Rives be dismissed as printers of the Se nate. This resolution finds no fault with Blair and Rives it gives no reason why the act should be done it offers no apolo- gy tor violating "ine ngnis oi contraci Imlecd, it was noi necessary for Federalism to do so; it is enough for that parly k know they have "the power;" and rights and law and justice must bend before it. This is the first sample that the now ruling dynasty has given to the people; and from ilT they may judge of what is lo be expected while lhat party is in power. Here are the first fruits of Federalism in its present reign laws set at nothing anJ rvT'iiis trampled. under foot 1 T7 In the recent elections in New Hampshire, the triumph of the Democracy was complete, having carried the Governor, Members of Congress, and a large major;-
