Now, air. I would atk the gentle men wbo rigacd thia pprr. if ihey toted againtt txptllmg Mr. Ennilt, becau-e hie couaal wat not pemtted to aay what ho plaed upon the floor of tha Senate! If thia wit no' one of thretonecf their votes why have they inserted it in thia protett! it rutin htve beea put there either at a rea eon, or with design nf ineulting and airepretentflg the Speaker; ihe la ter motive he beea disclaimed: the concla aion thra it irreit.b!e .that cot of ihe rratont why ibry voted againtt npfllisg Air. Ennett wat th t hie counsel was not permitted to preach to the Sena e. A moat lame and impotent conclusion! If it were r.ol that thit paper ia arjuti and intuiting to the Speakev and ihe Senate, I would ' htve no objection 10 ft it on the Journal. There ia mnelt in it, that in signera will be atharaed i f, when tliey come t under r.V"rfii'rriiT.0'4deiR.llRJW Enoett, and were trying to get rid ofbiui from party a.otivr,ie thai any refot or juat flcation of their volet berauee we ara oigellul of our raths, and ntjutt to Mr. Lnnett, are they justified trrlore Got! and thtir country in euaiaimng him? ' Doe our wrocg make them right? The quec tion btfore the Senate was the guilt or in nocence of Mr. 'Ennett. and each mem ber wee euppoted lo dretde that qnestion from tha evidence before bim. Was it a reaon which any mpibei who voted biot innocent, bail a tight lo tpread npon the Journal, that ihoac who voted bim godly, were governed by party motives? Cer tainly not Such a motive waa base in those who condemned bim, but cculd not hate been a reason' with those who acquitted bim, unlets they wish to bear the atigma of having been influenced by consideration foreign to the guilt or in hocence of the accused. ' I take the ground tlirp, Mr. Speaker, ' thai no matter whatptti motives may have been, no member Ks a right to spread them upon the journal a dtfence for hit own condoci; they could l.ae consti tuted none of the reaont forhis own vote; and we are alone responsible to ihe great searcher cf hearts, wbo will in due time pro-i-Uim whether we hae violated our oaths, in condemning thia man from unworthy motives.1 What any one wat to gain by depriving the caeaher fromOnlow of hit seal, I am yet to learn. He ia in no bod' way. nor do I know of any party measure before the Senate that bia pre sence can obtruct. I therefore object to the'paper preeentrd by the member from Martin being ej read upon the journal aaPtoirsi;beraoseit is not soeh a document at is meant in the Constitution, but is an indictment against Ihe Speaker, arid th-te oicn-bers who vo ted to expel ihe Sen tor from Onslow ; be rne it i unjust and insulting both to the Spe-ker aud othera ; and because it misstates and mitre presents ' many, facta connected with ibetxpultion of the Se ntor from Onslow;1 Vi ; " Had the Ssoator fro-a Mtrtia thought proper lo protest againt the explion, and.tttte hia reasone for do-nR so, I could have no obj-ciion to their bttfg placed on ihejouinl.
