Mr. Chairman : The resolution before us is one of more than ordinary importance It pro poses nothing Ipsij than to amend that instrument which, to eery American, most be considered the palladium ot his liberty the Constitution ofthe United States; and a piitt of it, too. which the citizen ot a republic should esteem far the most valuable and important I mean that part which regulates the elective Franchise. ir, ( am aware of the ground" on wVich I stand. Iain aware of the magnitude of tbe subject be fore me. That the people of thuse states hayej for tliis instrutiient,tbe tnoVt devoted attachment and profound reverence, must be obvious to the most superficial observer. They view itaa the most noble work of their ancestors, and every attempt thai mav ne made to alter or amend it i win vxcice uiati ust nuu jetiousy.

Such A Y brave, bigh-mir tied, and virtuous people unhacs- neyed in the intrigue 6c vices of foreign counV tries and foreign courts, could have gotten ua almost without the forjn of a written onstittt tion. ,i -". :' -s And it is true, that, at this day, when all fs 'I cam and tranquil as the morning, whn there " j ate no parties m hostile array against each other) v that the reasonings that would in other days, and at other times, of party rage and violence') . have bad great influence and effect on, the mmdi of men, have now but little or no effect ' And p' will be contended, no dot?bt, by tboie that - ere opposed to any amendment, that. it there is eVeft a noceskity of amending this instrament, tlltfY day is very rer te.
