Mr. Leiper then offered the following re

and condemn the latecaucus of a minority of
the republican members of congress at Wash

; Mr. Porter from the same; committee, fur
ther reported the following resolution :
, llesolved, That the present alarming crisis
demands a chief magistrate, around whoin'the
natson would rally with unbounded confi

and distinguished in the council andin the
field. - Without detracting from the acknowl

is so pre-erninately possessed of those quali

VY rest his ni mination upon his own superi
or merits and strong claims upon the grati

ness of his opponents'. An able advocate and
judge, a distinguished legislator and govern
or, an incorruptible patriot, a skilful brave
and successful general, and; an enlightened
statesman ; at the early age of 14, he was a
soldier of the. revolution, a wounded prisoner
in a British prison ; and during the late war,
he toiled through hardships, fatigue and dan

REMARKS ON THE ABOVE PKOCEED-
. 1 ' I.'. . .' INGS. - .''".'' " '
From the National Intelligencer
T.he. commentaries of the Pennsvlvam
papers on the late nom'ihations at Harnsbiirg'
are somewhat at variance with any .probable
expectation which could have been formed
of them. The Columlnan. Obser-ver, '.'which
print was the earliest and, has been, & now
is, the consistent supporter of Gen. Jac icsox
for the Presidency, savs the nomination of
Mr.CAr.HOTTx to the Vic-Presidency is ' all
evil and pemicipus, and in opposition to the
wishes of the people." The same '.paper
adds, that r open bargain and corrupt sale,
among certain unprincipled fkniily leaders in
the state; on that nomination, are too gross,
we . apprehend tp he swallowed by a free,
jAirtuous, and intelligent people." These
are certamiy symptoms of a cimerence among
friends. The Observer" intimates,that
another meeting of Delegates' will be held at
Huntingdon to rectify the errors of the Har-
risburgi Convention, and to reform the Elec
toral Ticket, to which much exception is
taken by the " Observer." The JVat. Gazette
says the list of Electors will provoke a smile.
What is there in this list which is obnoxious,
at thesame,time, to two prints so widely op-
p.osed to each other r " South-Carohna ought
to be gruteful to the Convention," says tlie
National Gazette,. ' which would give the
two hihest offices of the Union at once to
her offspring." The ticket, suggested by
the i Gazette runs--thus ..For, President, Mr.
Adams ; ; for Vice-President, Gen. Jacksoit.
In the midst of its chagrin, however, the
countenance of the National Gazette sudden
ly brightens at 'the lucky thought that
' Something has een gained, on this occa
sion!, in tlie" renunciation of the old fealty to
Congressional nominations." Now, with due
submission, we maintain, that every suc
cessive State nomination lengthens the chain
of reasoning favorable to a Congressional no
mination!. ; The Democratic Press has some
cogent remarks on this point, sufficient to
aflbrdjnatter for deep reflection. The Frank
lin Gazette seems to be in ecstacies at the re
sult! of the Convention, and particularly at
tfie nomination of Mr, Calhoun to th Vice
Presitlency. We liave no doubt Mr. Cal
houp Uasi a proper respect for the good opi
nioii of his fellow-citizens ; but we should
think, the hook is too visible beneath . this
flimsv bait.to be swallowed by his friends.
It is . an easy shew of kindness," as the Na
tional Gazette says," but -it isa A?w merely.
.The Franklin Gazette keeps up the tone
of imputing a selfish course' to the ' pre
sent politiciai.s' of Viroinia, in supporting
thje Congressional nomination, because it is .
obnoxious tot ' pEfKRvi-VAxiA, her antient
and steadfast friend:' Upon all-wi ich we
liave only to remark' that there is such a thing
as electing a President without the aid of
Pennsylvania, or of Virginia ; and that it is
pretty certain that a President wilj actually
be elected without the aid of one or the other
of the two states. '

From the Philadelphia Democratic Press. '

named as Vice- president; The Democratic:
Caucus at Washington, some time since, took

date of the Democratic party t'a the United
stales; tor the . same station tor which Gen; 1

will be the, consequence to .tjie Democratic
party, and to the United States, of this diver-
suy oi opinion i is norpoasioie, at mis time,
to deterrwine. ' Unless a change, which is ex
pected, should take! place in the New-En
gland States, it is probable the election of
President -will devolve on the House of - Re
presentatives ofj the United States." The
names returned to that house will probably
be the following and in the order in , which
they are here arranged : Crawford, Adams
and Jackson., However strong may be the
objections to any of those candidates we :. in
cline to tlie opinion that it would be better,
for the country that the most objectionable
of them should be elected -by tlie t people ra
ther than the Jeast - objeeCionable should
be chosen, by ihe House of Representative.
; The experience of 1801 makes us look
with horror and apprehension it theprospct
of the election going to the House of Repre
sentatives. The. injustice and 'inequality of
that mode of election, the door -'it-opens for
bargain and sale j for profligacy -arid, corrup
tion is tei-rific. We . will no t think ; of Fo

forded to the Holy Alliance, or tear our Na
tion into shreds y the factious violence Jinci

of itself a sufficiently threatnirig and tremen
