just at Ibo decision at the Ust Sctsioo, on
the qiKsiioo of order, Is now reprobated
ia a certain, quarter bet I look forward
with t ortOdenct totba tiroe.wMo.hk that
of Iht war, tl will to followed by unani
itiout approbation. As, however, a tilth
ion of tentiment atill eilsts, I tmst thai
I m.y bo indulged la a few remark ei
fJrutory ofibe priociplel which overoed
me ia making it.
You all know, that tbo contested point
of order In iht senate, which hat to
deeply agitated tht country, turn on tht
que si too of the oririm of tht power lo
twasrie order in debate- Inert art lo
provisions In tho Consifturioo, which
heart on this out si ion i tht one, which
vests tho Senate with tht rijtht of deter
mining iht rule of itt proceeding! ; and
tht other, which appoints the Vue rre
aide nl Preside At of 4ho Sonata. On i
just interpretation of these two provisions
of the Coiisiitutioo, tht decision of the
question must depend. Now, Gentle
men, 1 cannot doubt, that on even a (light
exatnlnatroQ, you will agree with ire
that there ia no rational grounds of doubt,
at to the meaning of either, fhey com
municale power holly dissimilar, and
that in terms to explicit, that itis rirfiult
lo misconceive their meaning. By tbe
nrn, Ibetnate l Clearly vetted with the
complete power of mating if atr rui,
ana by it, til that it competent to be done
under the power of making role, it is
competent to do i tnd this lo ibt entire
exclusion or the exercise of the power by
tbe Vice President, or any other authori
ty whatever. In the Senate, then, the
ruo making, or legislative power, is
plenary tnd exclusive while tht Vice
President, aa President of the body, is
vested with a power no less complete of
presiding, which, however, by no just In
terpretation, can mean more than the ap
plication of rules of the Senate to the
proceeding of the body in its nature ad
ministrative, and partaking In no degree
of the Legislative character. If these
views bo correct, and it would teem im
possible to contest them, there will be no
difficulty in determining tbe relative
power, and consequently responsibility ot
the Vice-President and the Senate in re
lation to questions of order. If It be the
duty of the former to. preserve order, it
is no less certain that he can preserve
order only through the rulet of the Senate,
exfiret or implied they are lo him the
nnty itandaTtt'tf order t the ' rule must
first exist, and hit power and responsi
bility are in the application only. To
suppose that be can enforce order with
out a previous rule of the Senate, would
be to clothe him with doable power.
both, legislative and administrative; for
he must first determine, by hit own dis
cretion, what the rule of order is, and in
so doing,, enact a rule of proceeding for
the Senate, in violation of the plenary
od exclusive rkiwef
the constitution determining the rule of
its proceedings. ' v 6 are i tiow prepared
to decide "the particular question in con
troversy t What power has tho: Vice-
President under the actual rulet of tbe
Senate over rtic freedom of debate-r-or

clear. I had but lo act consistently with
myself hut to look btrk to tho past la
ace to what point 1 ought lo go forward.
If -lot askad, io what tbote principles

si st ? ror tnswer Is, that they will be
found h iboie that led to the war of the
Revolution x that they are contained in
tbe Declaration o( Independence, in the
constitution which happily unites ua at t
people, too that they are illastrtted by
the great civil revoluiion that brought
Mr. Jefferson in :o power In 1801, tnd
the very able report of Mr. Madisoo
of 1791, which so tmioeotly contributed
as . a si a
to that great, aou. I WUi-04f-nappy

the great doctrines of the right ofctun ;
which leach, thai sll just governments
originate with Ibe people, and are eaiab
ithed for their happiness ; and that liter
ty can only be preserved by the responsi
bility of public servants : or to express the
same tbing'differentfy t that liberty Is that
stale, in which those who make and exe
cute the laws are controlled, through tbe
power of frequent elections, by those on
whom the law operate.
To strengthen this control of the ruled
over rulers, thro the great instrumentali
ty of elections, and lo prevent it from
being weskencd by accident or design,
particularly in the highest instance of its
exercise by tbe people of these states,
has been my constant aim- And, uentle-
men, I trust that I will never shrink from
this great object under any circumstance
of difficulty or danger. If I am to be
denounced, it is in this great causa that I
will rejoice to meet it.

When a tutmpt was made to impose
bpoo a Mt State, about lobe admitted
into the"UtItn,ritfVl loos, IncemptiiU
at I thought, with hercoc'usJ osareiu
pwer, I was charged in iht North
with being ion partial lo Ibt South, and
as being friendly lo that unfortunate con
ditioo of Slavery, of Iht tvilt of whkh
boot are more tcbtibli hn I am.
Al seother erioJ, when I believed
that the industry of ihit Cowirf roquirtd
some protection tgainsi iht selfish and
contracted legislatiwi of foreign powers
and to consti'utt it a ccruio and safe
source of suppty, In all eiigrocies, the
cbr;t against mt was transposed, and I
was converted into t foe of Southern, tnd
sn icfatua'ed frirnd of Nortbcro and
Woatcrn interests.
There were rt wanting persons, in
every section of the Umou,ln aotrrbtr
stage of out history, to accuse me with
rashly con'ributiiig to the support of a
war, the only sitctnative left lo our honor
bv the pecvcrt g injustice of a foreign
nation. Thfic rontradictoryehargt and
perverted iea get me do cooctm, be
cause t was vaft&Jent that Jime and truth
would prevail over all misconceptions,
and because they tid not impeach my
publk Integrity. Dut I confest I waa
not prepared to expect iht ispersioos
which i havt eicrienced on account
of a mort recent discharge or pvbuc

and a Soldier, brave, gallant, and success 1
fuli but a. mart Soldier, who, although
he also bad filled several civil offices,
