In giving the vote alluded to, had another mo- tive. did hope that some modification of the 25th section might be made, marking out more distinctly, fpossble, the boundaries of jurisdiction and lessen- ing the number of causes of collision and difficulty between the authorities of the General and State Co., vernments. Whether this could be accomplished has not undergone the test of examination. But feel well assured, that the individual who could be fortunate enough to suggest mode, by which to duce the number of causes, from which such colis- ions have arisen or may in future arise between the two jurisdictions, will not only entitle himself to ap- probation, but will receive the plauds of his coun try. So far from being of mischevous tendency or calculated to weaken and finally dissolve the union ofthe States, that policy which removes causes, like y to produce contests for power between the States and the General Government, will tend, most cer- tainly, to strengthen and perpetuate the Union. At the adoption of the Constitution of the United States and ever snce there has been class of politicians in our country, ready to concentrate all power in the Federal Government.

In other portions of the west if not among ourselves suspicious of hosti lity the part of other sections of the Unon growth and prosperity, have been indulged. Since

 have had the honor to serve your representative has been my good fortune, especially in reference to the measures affecting your immediate and impor tant interests, already named, to meet the counte- and support of friends from almost every State in the Unon-from the East as well as from the South. Inever can be unmindfu of the kindness and liberality with which I was sustained, when the welfare and prosperity ofour State were deep ly involved. To the late Chairman of the Commit tee on the Public Lands, especially, we are much in debed. To his liberal views, and generous aid, in small degree may be ascribed the success of the measures of the session before the last, from which we have derived so much relief and benefit. Dur ing the late session, felt the want of his efficient aid in consequence his bad heah-not yet entire- ly restored. Suffer me to offer you
