It was no, as vo say, a resolu tiori Xtyurse the executive u come into Hip forms of the act of 1825." It was 4 to inntiire into the expediency of amend- ihg ihezcit of March 1st, 18S3, so as to auinonze ine rre!iit iu ichiuic .u. ui.- criiT-1nafi?'ir duties."

"V . This resolution, which you say was de bated and finally rejected by a majority of two votes, I say was not opposed by any one; arid afteta single remark fromthe Cha1rnan of the Committee of Commerce, (Mr. Newton) and from Mr. Canbreleng, wa passed, nemine contradicente ! So say' at least the Journal of the House of Repre sentatives, and so says the National Intel ligencer for Jan. 26, 1826. W hat think you a ffain of the accuracy of VfHr details-? The debate to which vou allude as having taken place on a res olution in the House of Representatives, took place on a bill in the Senate, of which the object, in like manner, was not to urge the Execvtive, as you, I - think, with great indelicacy allege, but to alt er the law. Suppose, Sir, that Mr. Clay, in his cor respondence.wiflv Mr. Vaughan, affecting a great display of minute information, should spcak'of a bill in the Hoose of Lord to a mend a law; as a resotu'on in the House oNCommons to'urge the King, what should you -'think of the accuracy of his state ments? What should you think of his sense of dpcorum, in undertaking to array the Legislative and Executive branches ot your Government against each other, br statements wholly unfounded in facf ? E ven in an indifferent matter, you would have thought the error extremely discred itablethe intention extremely imperti nent - '.'Take the case of the lat debate on the Catholic qoestion, in the House of Com-mons-that dt bate,in the course of which, as I understand it, you say, " jour honor and honesty hnd been impeached," by the Master of the Rolls (one of the highest ju dit ial officers of the realm.) That debate, 1 believe, was on ar resolution of Sir Fran cis Burdetr, looking to a modification of the law in regard to the Cathulics. . Sup pose Mr. Ch4y should, next year, in writ ing ap ofScial note to the British Minister at; Washington,. transfer the scene of that debate to the House of Lords, and convert the proposition from a measure of Legisla tive tendency info a resolution to urge the Kin to take some step of Executive dis cretion. - Would not such a -misstatement have filled you with disdain ? Your own is precisely of the same ouali- ty, with ihisilfeteuce against you, that in-1 stead if beiner-i'as the Catholic duestion is( to us) an indifferent matter, oh which we are not concerned to be minutely inform ed, your misstatement refers to the sub ject tua.ttejrjof a very important negotiation, a,; matter whose progress through Con gress you expressly undertake to describe. In my next letter I shall take you into the Senate of the XT. S. and when I have submitted to you the contrast of what real ly there took place, with your account of it, I shoub not' be surprised ifyoueame to the resolution that your, letter of Jan, 27 shoul d be not! merely the . last word "in this discussion, but ) our last word, fore ver on this subject. i Be pleased. nean'ire, to accept,' &c.

That an opposition to the re-election of a man thus elevated to office, is theduty of every patriot in the land of every friend to the republic of all who value , th purity, 'and yrish to preserve the existence, of our public instituti ons. " . - - - Utsolved, That, whilst we place our opposi tion upon these great general principles, and not upon the particular measures of the Administra tion, we yet believe that ah 'examination of many of the leading act9 of the Administration -will be found to develop views an .1 principles for the preservation of power, much in accordance with those by which was acquired, and demonstra ting a resolution to refain the Government by all the means which power and patronage pla e at the'r disposal : but even if their measures were less exceptionable,, "or less equivocal in their character, we could never consent in any manner to countenance the doctrine that power, acquired by purchase, 'by babgaix, iktbigi k, or MANAGF.Mi-.XT," could he consecrati d by the manner in which, it is administered. It "would he holding out a temptation to unprincipled am bition, to attain power by the foulest me-ris, in the promised immunity that, the crime would be expatiated if the offender would only forbear a busing the authority which he had usurped from the People.

Mr. Winchester, from the Cortimittee "to prepare .;and suggest measures proper for the consideration of, the Convention," reported the following, which was read and adopted by the Convention : The ; Committee appointed to consider and re port what measures are proper to be adopted by this Convention, with reference to the en suing election, beg leave to REPORT: That, after a sufficient consideration, they are of opinion, that, with the exception of the or ganization of one General CfmnMttee in the Ci ty ot Ralttmpre, it would be most advisable to leave to our friends in the diffrrent sections of the State, the adoption of such arrangements as local consideration may suggest as most condu cive to the attainment of our obiect.
