And if my col league, Laring thus attempted by a speech to af- 4 tact raw politically, in the estimation of nr con eutue&U, has found, from my reply, that be has gained coining by it, but on the contrary, that be is about to lose by it, I would simply say, here, with ail good humor, and with all respect, that I . do not think it becomes him to get into this lever, , tti excitement, this fury, this trident stateof du satifciion i for I can assure my colleague that I tun down with no such complaint. . I desire, cow, to say a word or two in reply to X3T colleague, in regard to my speech in reply to kita baring Veen deliTered on Monday evening' My colleasrue may be usFured that an early aa a week ago last Tu-rdav nigLt, after it was d-ner-mined,as I underst.xJ, thai wc were to hold even ing xioos for debate, I cm then ready to pro- et-d, but cooKi not, by the Ilu-e refusing to go into committee, -f..r which refusal he voted. 1 waited till Saturday evening, ah.n 1 obtained the floor; but aa my colleague was not then pre sent, I postponed my remark nill further, until Monday evening, for the expre purrose of giv ing him an opportunity to be here. He sav he tLd not receive tho notice. I proceeded. Vith . regard to the printing of my speech, my colleague will find, by reference to the Globe, that it occu . pied. iU regular place in the proceedings, and ap peared at the earliest possible moment. But such was my anxiety to publish it that I had it printed '.- where, at my own expense; and .if it did not tali into the hands of my colleague, it was in the hands of maoy gentlemen here before it waa pub . lished in its regular order in the oEcisi proceed , injr in the Globe. But all this is catching at smalj - things ; and I express mr belief, with all bcom- - iag respect, t&at ther hai better be left out in dis ruptions of thi kin. I expect to gain nothing Wsorh. Ttkmknryy colleague will And that the peo jia ofNorth Caroiita, before whom we bare both to appear, will take very little notice of theae small uur.te. My colleague, it seen, would gt mcintosome controversy with the venerable gentleman from t Mtariaaippt, Mr. tuitman. In that I trust he will be d ieap join ted ; for I say here, as I have often said in relation to the gentleman from Mi.- aesrippi. that I had esteemed and venerated him as much aa any man whnse acquaintance it has . Iwen my fortune to makesincethecominencoment f thia Congresa. He mv get him momentarily - into some excitement, which, on reflection, I am aire will soon pa. a way. I expressed my news as to how those who desired to have the Green : amendment stricken out of the Senate bill could have pruceetWd so easily to do it; and in this, 1 iivlulged in the uual Ireedora of political criticism.- But upon that particular suhiect I think I hae beeo heard enough ; and I think I have been beard in such a manner, that my people, at k-a't and all North Carolina, will be well satl-fled with t the hiMorT aa"d eirlanation which I have given of that suljocL Was the amendment f the ren--ablegnUcfoan from Miiippi to strike outlhe t irn amendment? Iet us see. . " Frst, we had the Senate bill. The first amenu- ! ment was tostrike out the Senate bill and insert in lieu thereof the Crittenden Montgomery amend . taenL What was the amendment of the gentle man from MiaswsJppi? It was lo substitute his JMeodment for both the Senate bill and the Crit- fmden btU to throw the Crittenden bill eutirelr all-. II. id it been wiitten out no mention of the ' Green an. ndoient would appear in it. It was a m suhftiaiu b. ti for the Senate bill and for the Crit , tMideu-) o itgomerr bill.

To this no answers gjrer.- My colleague does not doubt, to man doubu, if the amendment had been fim saade to strike out the Green amendment from the f"?1!'1'' tk1 m3tin ould hare been succcs' 11 Thsn wtat woull hire been the text Tote? It would bare been a Tote deciding be txtn tU Crittenden. Montgomery bill n the one sJe, and U.4 Cc.U kiU,tkus strip td of tlx Green tstdlment, upon the other side.

But I dsiret.!iay n more upon that subject I understood the greater -rtiHi of. thespwh of sny colleague, of the 20th or April, to be a defense of the d-ctrioe contained intheexeititive Lecotop lon mefce. I dire ied my remarks to the d.c trino conuine-1 in the ' menage. ' In order that there should be no" diffimlty tinn that ques tion, I quoted the verv i ientiaoal dot trine in that mes&atre with which 1 found fsult and dwentert from, and upon which the Green amendment rest ed for eipUnation the eiecutire message giving meaning, frce, and effect, to this Green amend ment. I have, a to thb; not heard my colleague dminctlr and really ; I do not understand to-day whether he approves of that doctrine or not ; Utouqb, if I have heard and understood him cor rectly, he sav he does not approve oi that iortioti of the message. Then, I mihtnit wntb great de ference, that my colleague -ought to hare let uiv argument on that subject lss with hte approval, end himself argued oomewhat against that doctrine of the President ; and not hnve'devoted him-lf entirely to other mailers in the speech whkh I made, anl matters foreign, and to which no allu sion had bean mado by me.

V. tkAM ill kit r.uinjl SUlUtton Ol oriu varvoua, buviu m m ire 1 conceive, a rerv Jnaterial difference between hU quotation and the .constitution itself. -We had a convention to amena ice constitution. ci: .it onu Carolina, in 1533. It was called br an enabling act. the Dooole beineifiret consulted. Tbov declar- d in favor of a convention, and delegates were elected," Amendmentwere made by that convention, and the tople ratified ..tneir a.v li.ll. " . In that connection, the committee reiiorted iu substance that no convention should be called, ex cert in the manner stated by .niy colleague. I sneak from mcmorr. Rut according to the regis ter of the debatee ofjtheconrention, complaints were made of the phraseology or tne arafl or the con tilutional amendment first proposeI, as to calling a conrention in the future. Whereupon a very important amendment materially chan ing the Unguagc as to the call of a convention, a . ...i. was mauo tno nrsi a ran wing, in suosinnco, - that no conrention should bo called, except by the concurring rote of two thirds of both Uoums." Tbo amendment made, this section read in sub stance, u no cocverlion shall be called by ihe Ley- ixlatHtr, except by the concurring rote of two thirds of both Houses," Jtc. Tliis amendment, Ams mtnle explained more fully by Iho debate maintain, as I conceive, ail the views 1 have ever maintained, for the power of the people of North Calviina over their confutation Rut bow does any difference of opinion on this sustain mr colleacue ? Did I ever talk of sus taining the doctrine that, in a new State, or in an old State, a convention, called in one way or the thcr, could fciirly gire the Legislature the ower to make a dUcrimination between property ? I never did at anv time. I never maintained the dctrine that a conrention can justly give the Leg Ulnturo power to give security to one species of ropertv in-, preference to another never. All this, however, 1 mor. fully explained le- f..re. A word iow about'the eighty millions of pub lie land. The fault which 1 found with mv col- leH-.;ui:s --eev'b a, that he statel that I voted tainst the nectary priviions to protect the o eminent in nr right in the ptit.Iic Unas with in the con Cues of Kansi. withtut noticing the fn-'t that tne same safeguards, wer containel in the Crittetslen-Montgomery bill that were in the senate lill. I understand mr colleague now to say that he was raisunrtentood; mat wnat he meant waa, that inasmuch as the perplo of Kan'as might vote down Lecoupton, and proceed to form anew con ft i tut ion, and in th fbrmatioa of this new cor. ijtution they miht claim a right to these lands, that would be etectaal agumt the title of the United States. Now, L-t me tliow how erroneous tLia poiition w All Ccngre' can d.i is to put a proper safe guard into the bill on which the State is to bo ad mitted. Suppose, for instance, that Minnesota, or any other 5Ute Laving public lands within it, comes into the Union witiproper provirions in the act of aiuiisiion as to the right'" of the United- States in the public domain, and afterwards the people of thit State should change their uon.'Utu lion and put in a ciau e declaring that all the pub lic Ut.la within its borders fh.xilJ be the proper ty of the State: how would this affect the Govern ment title ? The position of my colleague, is, if I understood him, tha; a sulequent alteration of the State constitution could Uke away the' title of the United State to the public lands in that Ptate, whn eipreea provi.-iou against it is In the admiu ting act ifj the admission afterwards Should be br proclamation. But. sir, I presented the views of the gentleman from Mississippi, Senator Ia vli, and quoted from Lb letter. Mv colleague must admit that I quoted properly. It doclares, in substance, that unlees -you provide in the act of admission proper safeguards' as to the title of the United States- to the pu&lic lands in a State, the- General Government loses it3 con trol over those public binds. " But mr col league flies instantly to something else to get out of that difficulty; and says the remedy is conuined in the enabling act. I read the riew3 and position of the Senator from Mis sissippi, and showed that they must be provided for. - Mr. Shaw, of North Carolina. Mr. Chair msn .-, Mr. Gilmer. My collea'iw would not extend this courtesy to me, and 1 cannot yield. Mr. Shaw, of North Carolina. I onlr wMi to interrupt my coHengue'to correct him in h.is state ment. The rVnnW from Mississippi did not ray that. He did not saf the condition precedent must ls contained in the act of admission. He is sorejorted in my colleague's speech, but he diJ not say that Mr. Gilmer. I cannot yield. My purpose was to try mv colleague by "his own auuied rule, and by the opinion of Senator Da via. I under stand my w.lli-aguo now to say, that wlmt he 1 meant by the remark in his opening speech, that 1 had not been faithful against alien suffrage, com- sisteti in tnu: tnat the inhabitants or citizens of Kansas might, under tne Crittenden-Montgomery bill, for which I voted, in case they voted down the LecomMon constitution muL-j one, in which they might tolerate alien suffrage. Now let m examine that position for a moment. What more can Congress do to provide safeguards against the exercise of the right of slien suffrage than to guard against it in tho act of ad mission? If the State "afterwards sees proper to call a convention and amend its constitution, the difficulty whichjorry colleague seems to labor un der would ari-o in every nse. , I mention this to my colleague to show bow anxious be is to point out defects, and indulge in fault-finding. He says that, by quoting the. letter of the hon orable Senator from MLsi.-s:ppL Mr. Davis, 1 clinch the argument en his position, and in his favor, on bis vote to admit Minnesota With out a provi-ion protecting the .United States in her right to the public domain within the con fines of that new Stale. Very different, in truth, if there be anj thing in Ai's own position auumtd against int. f f . v I am free to admit that my great objection to the admission oflMinnesoLa was the alien univer sal suffrage w hich her. constitution tolerates, and which is not denied.- . My colleague is down opon : ma about my for nt?r views as to the admissioa of Kansas with the Lecompton constitution; talks enigmatically, and charges more than I recollect. I do not recollect about the canvass. I donot deny, howerer, that previous to my coming to Congress, I iftd enter tain and expttia different views in relation to Kan sas and Lecompton, to those I fotmed and acted upon after investigating and becoming familiar with the whole fact'.. Tiw time. I presume is not material. I am free .to admit, that had I not hecoLaa " well satbued tht serious Miffi. Cultias Vould ; likely, inevitably," and vhAzut gain or UnefU to my techon, arise, to the peace and quiet of the Union, I would bare been as ready and aa auxioua. aa any thet to adiuit Kansas with the ltimptoii . onstilution, uncon- dititnally. : - i Rut I enme hrr to confer, in vrstigatc, and t- letjislsU for the hei-t Interets'of my wuiitry.' 1 came here to give that i oto which I U o ghi would t- IW f.r the JS'orih, best for the S.hiIU, lej-t for the Hast, and bast f.r the N est; ana wnen i na,i made a full ln'retigation of the subject so far as I coali, I f.Hind things very different aua came non .tie io thn i-onelusion. without any "reference t any section of this country, that a bilfcontaining tl.M rir.ivijinns Much as the bill I have advocated and sustained, was best calculated to quiet the .-..,,., tinlie n.l forever. I cave it mr neart I gaw'it my Land, I gave it my cordial and iron est supiort. ' Mr! Shaw, of Nrth Carolina." Will my col Imitiis nermit tne to ask him a que-tioli. Mr. Gilmer, ilv colleague will recollect how he aniwered me when I R.ked him the time priv- ile n?. 1 mut reply to him m tne same way. ; Mr Shsw. of North Carolina. I would b Slad to know whether my colleague denies that the submission of the Lecompton constitution, i the neor.le wai a question in the last canvas ? 1 nndfrstoo.1 him to.y that ho took no pontion in retard t.i that oiiestion. If the sentleroan aenies what T have said. I am prepared to prove it say this now, because it w not my )iriose to re r.l t.i him Mr. Gilmer. My colleague will internij.t me whether I will or not. ; - . " ! :f ' 1 admit that I was, with othors at the South, who believed that there was no necessity for a sub miuun nr thK Leoomnton conbtitution to the people for that, I then believed that it was to b ..,K.i,tol C.i. tha and imr.roner imriioSO uri- trt crct rid of slavery. Had such been the true state or tnmgs ana iru ixwompv-m nam i ted slarery.ifAe qitention, no man would have more readily stood tip for the admission of Kanas un der the lecompton constitution. Mr colleairue savs that I had indicated my anxiety to get rid of thU question. Nrrer did ht state a $rairr truth. I was anxious, and have been anxious si nee. the difficulty arosA, that the question might be got rid of without harm to th peace and interests of the country, or the sacrifice of any prinsiple. I presume that my colleague desired the same thing. 1 presume tnat an gen tlemen who voted honestly-on this question here desired and aimed at the same thing. And I re peat here, that the course I bare pursued on thi subject, whether southern men were with moor against me, is an htmeMone. Inasmuch as 'our southern friends have come, subsUntially, in the bill which was passed, upon my identical plat foim, 1 trust that experience, which is the result of time, may prove that I was right. When my col league speaks of my vote on the Crittenden bill being different. from the votes of tbo great majority of my soutnern friends, and with a majority of the isorth, why did hs not mention that upon the conference bill two as hon est southern men as ever graced this floor record ed their names with the North ?, Does roy col league say that the gentleman from South Caro lina Mr.-lSonham and the gentleman from Mississippi Mr. Quitman have, becauso of that rote, been false, to their States, and leoome north ern in their feelings and principle? How vould they feel, and how ottght they to feel, if I had risen up in myjdace, and in the presence of the assembled Representative of the nation, under took to brand these gentlemen with having pur sued a course by which they forfeited theconfidence of their country had perpetrated "an unparal leled outrage because they felt bound under a sense of duty, to record their votes with what my colleague calls the Black Republican party ? I merely present this attempt to make me out an Abolitionist as one of those things to be placed in tho same category as reading the names of those who subscribed for my sjoech. In my reply to my colleNgue" speech, I said, in substance, I was surprised that he had nt pointed out some portion of my speech that an ultra northern man could put hU name to, or an "ultra man anywhere, which he has leen wholly unable to do. I desire to stand or fall by what is true the fuels, nothing more. My speech is be fore the country, and I aak to be judged by m v speech. I am willing to let my firt spi-ech, and the remarks which I have subsequently made, go to North Carolina, or anywhere else, and le judged of and decided on by an honest constituen cy; 1 did complain, in anaw er to my colleague s speech, that he, in speaking of m$' remarks on the Senate-bill Interpolated, or added.'-'in other wordi, to her admission as a slave State." . I remarked, m my speech, that no man could have been more ratified than I, to have had Kauraa in with tr.e Lecompton constitution, all things right nnd fair and yet mr colleague anded, as l thought unkind IV, said words apparently to sting and mortifv I desired to aik my colleague tho question what he did mean br the use ot these word ; as descr ip- tive ot my rejections to tne senate, mil and ce very courteously declined to ba interrupted, but promised that before he concluded, he would ex - . . ... 1 . V plain, lie naa not done so. and l suppose be lor On another subject 1 gave my colleague a fui chance to be heard. He had represented me a having voted for "an unparalleled outrage." I pointed out, in reply, that the conference bill for wnuh ne mmselt, and our whole delegation voted, contained substantially all the essentia) provisions that were in the Crittenden Montgom err biu, .witn wmcn I and my friends were all perfectly satisfied, and which was declared a great triumph, and celebrated with music, speeches, and ihs unug or cannon, l nad given him an op portunitr to Bhow that" the very thing which he called "an unparalleled outrage" was, or was not, the thing for which he voted in the end, and the thing which he hsj gloried over as being a great triumph, and a measure of justico and peace ny cia my couoarue, in nis repiy, not meet me with something substantial, and show that this is not true ? hy did he not show that there was a material aiaerence between the provisions of the Crittenden-.Montgomery bill and those of the conference bill? Why does he not explain what tne conterence Mil is .' as well as mv constit uent?, are interested m ttm. Mv colleague brings to my attention th9 fact that 1 votwl against the committee of conference. I did -o, and, I think, for the best of reasons: and I -should have continued to vote as I did, had seen that, bv doing so, 1 could have fo-oen th two Houses of Conem to have taken the Crit- tendeu-Montgomerv bill. But indications were otherwise. I desired not to h:ivo an adjournment of Congress without some such settlement. The bill reported by the i onference committee con tained tuhxiaittlally, . but indirectly, all I insisted on. the ureen amendment was whirled to the winds, and the question "was left to be decided substantially where, as I said before, it was per haps better it should be decided, especially as the South could not bo tho gainer, let the dicision be either war. Where is the necessity now for all thia difficulty ? Why come in, afW this thing is all over, and indulge in this fury nnd this spleen, when my colleague, at last, comes down in sub stance to that which I had been contending for from the beginning ? I repeat, the same in sub stance: but without many of the wise, plain, and lis: a.-tial provisions oi tne crittenden Dill, so well calculated to settle all Kansas difficulties at once and forever, and give permanent peace to the country. Now, Mr. Cafrman, 1 have done. I am sorry for having troubled the committee so long. Mr. Scales. Will my colleague allow me lo ask him a question. Mr." Ci'mer. I dislike to deny my colleague, but I was not allowed by my other colleague to ask him anv question. Mr. Scales. I ruprely want to ask my oolleaerue a question wnien nas nothing to do with the dis cussion. Mr. Gilmer, No Sir. I must respectfully de cline to have anything interpolated in my speech, as my colleague refused me th privilege of hav ing something interpolated in hisspeech. Mr. Scales. That docs not justify my colleague for want of courtesy to me. " Mr. Giln.er. My friend can hare the floor when I am done, and can make a speech. Mr. Chairman, I hare presented my views. I hope I hare done so without offense. -r I. is my desire to discuss all such questions properly, and in troper . temper and spirit; and I am not "going to be dia wn or betrayed into any excitement. To be sure, it is very annoying to me to find myself pursued, at my heels, and at every step, as a wild and predatory animal, and such efforts made that I may go home a damaged man. - I do not conceal th? fact that it was annoying to me to see it in all the papers, t he morning af ter I made my speech, that mv trieiid Worn Ala bama cried out, .-Kiss him Giddings 1" a re mark which I did not hear, and which mv friend ! from Alabama states was made in a tone which j he did not expect would reach, the repot tera! cans. T w.r. T fti mnrtirled I felt wounded. 1 lelt that attempt were being made to hunt tn down. I felt that I had been eeleciod Dwause ,i stood, as it were, alonetha Represrr.lative of large conservative portion of the South where 1 was born, with whom I am in all things identified in feeling and interest, and whom properly to serve is my highest ambition ; and I admit it wa mortifying to me to -know that even thft list carried around by the little boys, to te Mibacrip: tions for mv speech, werecopie.1 before these lusts were finish, or the ink dry ; and atter publica tion here,1 immediately sent to North Carolina, and to the South,- to show that gentlemen, whose politrral opinions are unpopular in the South, Were sufficiently satisfied with my spee. h to sub -cribe for it When that sort of game is to-practiced, 1 can only rely on the discriminating judg ment of an honest" people. I - will appeal and leave it to them; and although those whoso pleasure or tasta may justify and induce them to indulge in all the httl de-bar remarks, and ambush! attempts to 'prejudice the force and effect of what 1 had argued, 1 feel that, before the just aid honptt tribunal of a generous and impartial people, theso assaults will fall harmless at my feet, and that there is vet hope that I may survive. I respectfully "ask my colleague to meet fairly my vie.varid arguments; and in the umihI man ner and spirit. Let us debate face to face, and boot to boot, and I will never complain of tho ad vantage he may obtain on the questions I. have discussed. I know not who to blame: but J submit In conclusion, tnat it shows a want' of fairness, if not ability, to meet the convincing ten lenev of the views which I have presented on the subjects discussed, when resort is had to this miserable underhanded method of attempting un justly to create, against me odium and prejudice. SPECIAL SESSION OF THE U. S. SEN ATE. ... W'ashixotok,' June 15. Pursuant to the proclamation of the President, tho Senate met to-day at noon. The proclamation was read. Mr. Green presented the memorial of. Benja min , W. Perkins, of Worcester, Massachusetts, settirig forth that in June, 1855, he mado a con tract with the Russian government, through its minister at Washington, for 150 tons of gunpow der and 35.000 stand of arms : and he asks redress at the hands of this govornment.- It was referred to tho committee on foreign relations. Mr. Mason called up his resolutions relative to British aggressions, which occasioned a long and interesting discussion. Mr. Mason said that the aggressions bare been continued, but there was reason to believe that thev were not in consequence of any new instruc tions. He thought it important that the.views of the Senate should be expressed npw, Mr. Wade, while condemning the course of the JJritish cruisers, thought, nevertheless, that the course of the latter was pursued with a' good motive thatot putting down the slave trade, Mr. licniamiQ said it was obvious to. all that isitution uracticallv waa tha riht of search. It -could not be conceded, for it would render Great untain mistress of the seas. Mr. Clingman remarked that the President and com mi tee on foreign relations had made an argument in vindication of Commodore Pauld ing, and that Great Britain would point to this as u yusiiDcaiion or ner cruisers. Mr. Doohttle replied, contending, that Com modore Paulding had not violated the constitu tion and laws of the United States, nor the laws of nations. Mr.Mallory was fully satisfied tha), the instruc tions under which the British cruisers were act ng were issued in 1846.: It was no new thing : hut the increased number of them has attracted mention. He read from a dispatch from Secre tai y -Marcv, to show the position of the Amen can government on the question. Mr. JJouglas having the floor denounced the recent democratic convention in Illinois as a bo gus affair, and launched off' generally in remarks about political affairs in that State. Jlr. liayard went into an argument to show that the position of Chancellor Kent was wrong, and argued that visitation and search are the same, the one being dependent on the other. ii . i i .. ... t iiaoui conciuoing me question, tne senate went into committee on executive business. Washington, June 15th. I he Senate on meeting first went into fecret i a ion, and when the doors were opened, on mo tion ot Air. ."uason, the Bntith aggression resolu tions were taken up. . . The resolutions are as follows : Resolved, (as the judgment of the Senate.) That American vessels on the high eeas, in time of peace, bearing the American flag, remain under the Jurisdiction of the country to w hich they be long ana, tneretore, any visitation, molestation. or detention of such vessels by ' force, or by the exnioition oi iorce, on tne part ur a foreign pow er, is in derogation of the sovereignty of the U- nited SUtes. . Resolved, That the recent and repeated viola tions of this immunity, committed by ves-elsof war belonging to the navy of Great Britain, in the Gulf of Mexico and the adjacent seas, by fir ing into, interrupting, and otherwise forcibly de taining them on their voyage, requires", in the judgment of the Senate, such unequivocal and final disposition of the subject by the governments oi wreat cniain anq ino v titea wates, looccing the rights Involved, as shall satisfy the just de- mands of this government and preclude hereafter the. occurrence, of like aggressions. Resolved, That the Senate fully approves the action of the Executive in sending a naval force into the Infested seas with orders ."to protect all vessels of the United States on the high seas from search or detention by the vessels of war of any other nation." And it is the opinion of the Sen ate that, if it becomes necessary, such additional legislation should be supplied in aid ot the Exec utive power as will make sucn protection effec tual. Mr. Mason said he had refrained from debatine those resolutions, notwithstanding they were of an important character. I The resolutions were then passed unanimously and Mr, Mason asked that this fact be entered on the journal. Th committee appoirvt nl to wait on the Presi dent having reorted that he had no further com munication to make, the Senate then adjourned this extraordinary session " ., FOB THE REGISTER.

Tb'ts was the chief point of resemblance. Tbe,.princi pies upon which the present proposition was now advocated, was entirely different fcom those which had been adopted'.; by the friends of the deposits : bill of the last session. And here he must bo per-s mitted to express his regret that the Senator. trom Kentucky (Mr. Clay) seemed to have abawloi eOi his bill to distribute the proceeds! or the puoiu lands among the States. For his" own part, he in- finitely preferred that measnre to the one now' before the Senate. . ' ' .1 '.-' :' i What were the principles said Mr.. B.J upon which thederx.site bill of the lat session rested ? There was then a vast sum of jiublic money,- bc-A vond the wants of the Government, in tne aepo-n ito banks, whilst an absolute certainty existed that at tho end of the year, thissurjdus would be great-, ly increased. At that time, these banlis were not ' bound to pay any interest on their deposites. These accumulations of public money were loaned? out by them to individuals; whilst all. the profits arising from such loans went into the pockets ofi their stockholders. A wild spirit of speculation' was thus fotred, which threatened to deftroy the regular business of the countrj, and to con vert otuf public domain into paper money. The enormous evils of this system were palpable. The banks were' then inflicting deep injuries upon the coun- try, by the manner in which they used this money, and it was every day becoming moru and more uncertain whether they would be able to meet the! demands of the Government when caiiPd upon; for this nurposo. Under these peculiar circumstances, what was; to be done? We were compelled to choose bc-4 twecn two great evna. t ne unit awrci - 1 fered the money to remain in tho banks, and snb4 ?ectel the country to the consequences : or, it be-; camo our duty to deposite it with the States, andS give them tne auvanuigeor using uuniu ib buouiu be required by the wants ot tne uovernment. No other practical alternative could be presented For mr own part, I felt no hesitation in making mv choice. . ; At that time it seemed to have been admi tied by every Senator, that, as a general system, i would be extremely dangerous to me country au- nnally to distribute the surplus m tne treasury among the States. No voice was raised in favor; of such-a principle. ' It was universally , con demned-'- As i plan of general policy, a worse; one can never be demised.- If pursued, it must in a very few years, destroy the character of this Government, Let it once be established, and alj men can see the inevitable consequences. 2 Everyl Senator and Kcpresentative will then come to Congress with strong feelings directly hostile tQ the best interests of the x ederal Government. Instead of having our eyes exclusively fixed upon those great national objects entrusted to our care: by the Constitution, we would be 'more or- less; than men if wo could banish from our mind.) thej consideration that the full amount of every apn propriation for such purjioscs, would be so much; deducted from tho surplus to which the respective! States would be entitled at the cliiseof the yean? The question will then be not merely what appro- priatioiis are-nHceasary u promote in gem-rat in- teres,ts: of the country, but, blended with thw question, will be another how much can be with-j neid irom tnose purposes, ana to wuai exienijpani the dividend of our own States be thu3 increased For examplej a proposed fortification will "cos half a million : in voting for or against it, the con- sideratiou will necessarily obtrude itself, would it not be better, would it not be productive of more: . i -1 - . . i . . . . ?oxi, louisrriouietnissum anmag our own oiaies : In peace, it is our duty to -prepare for war. With this view, a proposition is made to increase our Davy. 1 his may be neeefsary to protect our c -mmerce, and to present such an array of our power to foreign nations, that they "will not darej to injure our citizen?, or to lusult our nag upon? the ocean. In voting upon such a proposition how easily may we ueiuae ourselves wuu tne iaea that there was no danger, and that the country; will derive more real benefit from expending the necessary amount upon railroads and canals in the; respective States. JA'cry dollar nicn can be. withdrawn from, the General Government is dollar given to the States. Establish this policy,; and vou set up a Jirinciple, to use a Senatorial word, iintauonistical to the constitutional and effi cient exercise of the powers of the Federal Gov ernment. You will thus paralyze the energies of this Government, and reduce it to almost the same feeble, condition in which it was placed uader, the old articles of confederation. Can the Senator from South Carolina (Mr. Calhoun) deny-hasi he denied that this -would be tho effect of such, a system?

To unite this deposite section in the same bill, with the appropriations necessary to; complete our system of iortih cations, is to declare; to the world that it has become a part of our set- tied policy. Does any necessity now exist for the; adoption of such a measure? Are we now placed' in tne same situation in which we were at the last session of Congress? Will there be any surplus' in the Treasury on the first of January next, be yond five millions? Ifas this fact been ascertain ed ? Shadows, clouds, and darkness rest upon the question. - Whether there will be or not is uncer tain, contingent, dependent upon the action of Congress, and upon the speculations in the public lanas. jiy own impression is, that,, if there snouid be a surplus, it will be comparatively sTnall ; unless thia very proposition for its denos-. ite with the States should be the means. of creat ing or enlarging it, by defeating the passase of important bills for the defence and benefit of the, country. . w hat necessity now exists for the adoption of this measure? It there shall be a surplus when Congress meet on the 1st of Decem ber next, it Will then be time enough to' provide lor its disposition, une great oojection to this measure is, that it will make tne extreme medi cine of the Constitution its daily bread. It has already become familiar to us that Senators are now willing to insert it in an Ordinary appropria tion bill, and thus make it the settled policy ot; the country. It should be the exception, not the rule.; Above all, it is a remedy to which we ought never to resort until' we know that a sur-' plus exists, or are absolutely certain that it will. exist. Bumcient lor tne aay is tne evil tnereof. I shall now speak of the" unhappy influence l iv Inch this system ot distribution would exert uon the. State Governments themselves,, becaui-e I have not risen to make a general speech, but merely to place my conduct in relation to this; subject in its true light. . And now, air, permit me again to express my- sorrow that the Senator from Kentucky, (Mr:' Clay) had not been willing to. postpone thia ques tion, and to wait until the next session. Then his land bill miht be Tvresen ted to Conerress under brighter auspices than it has ever boon heretofore. If a choice is to be made between that bill and a system of distributing surpluses.5 j Atf ill. Jiot be difficult for me to decide. Thre is. iu nay judg ment, no comparison between tho two.

What is the theory of our Government under the Constitution?. Congress possesses the power to levy and collect taxes, for wnat purpose f lo accomplish the great objects specified in the Con stitution. This power " of levying taxes. carries ... -. - : J -!.;. rr-i witn it an immense responsioiiijv ins represen l.Htives of the people, when they know that All the money they appropriate must W taken from the pockets ot their constituents, will be caretul to expend it with economy and discretion. ' But we possess a vast reservoir of wealth in our public lands, so irregular to its current that, in one year, it pours into the public treasury twenty millions, and iii the next. jt contributes but one-tenth of that sum! This deranges all our legislation, and renders all the great interests of the country fluc tuating and insecure. It encourages extravagant appropriations by Congress, and banishes economy from our legislation. It leaves every interest in doubt and uncertainty. This year, when we have more moneyithau we know how to expend, we henr the cry that the tariff riiitet be reduced ; the revenue must be diminished to the necjsary ex penditures oi tne uovernmeni ;, protection : must be withdrawn from our manufactures. . . The" next year, "perhapsthere maybe a reaetioh." Specula tion in the public: lands may have exhausted it self, and the receipts of the. treasury front this source may be: greatly diminished.'' What comes then ? Ihe tariff must be raised ; the duties on imports must be increased to meet the necesst ry wants of the Government. 1 bus the public mind is kept in a perpetual i state, of excitement.' t No domestic interest can calculate upon any fixed and steady protection. We are in a state of continual doubt bublieiopinion fluctuating with the fluctu ations in the sales of the; public lands. ( None of the great interests of the country can ever flour ish, unless they can calculate, with some degreeof confidence upon some steady and certain course of legislation in relation to themselves. . Now, sir, a distribution of the proceeds of the public lands among the mates would . remedy all these evils, and correct all these anomalies of our system. It would Secure to us a settled policy upon which the country might rely-- It, Would draw.off fram the General Government this eccentric source of: re ve- niif unA ' lit?trihntA It ftmnntr tA 'Stutaa TC should then b4 left where the Constitution intend ed to place us4- The .Government would then be administered on its original principles. .

Under ; such circumstances, an incidental protective duty, comparatively small would no oi more reai vaiue man a mucn larcer one," subject to; all the risk and uncertainty which now exist. ; A manulacturer, whilst embarking m business, would not then dread lest the policy of uongress mignt cnange Deiore no couia get into successful operation. .There would then be no taxes raised from the people to be distributed among the people.
