o,to coutest for Speaker IN the Senate.
Ma HOLDEN: The organization OF the Leglsla-


o and the resolution of the wings in their secret
mons IS such as ought TO be made known TO the
LI;o and such as cannot fail TO call down upon
r.; aovo,ed heads the condemnation OF every
g ,vba, is righ, and proper The whigs have
majority Of eighteen In the House oil commons,


S.,s The right so TO exercise that majority as
,bsm the Officers of the House-this no one
,S,rI.ins Of so far as the Speaker and Clerks are
-.oo,red-b but the matter does not rest here. That
L.h calls loudly for condemnation is, the illtmed
and o,oscriptive resolution adopted in their private
,oocus. Yes, they gravelY resolve that for no Of
6ep nor under any circumstances, will they vote
e., . democrat. At The last Session, the demo-
cratic party had majority in both branches, and
elected wing door-keeper to the House and Sen
o,s Yet these wings now resolve, with only
maturity in one House, that they will not Vo;e for
=. democrat for any thing Now suppose the de-
oocra,s come TO the same resolution, what is TO be
the result? In the Senate il lie, and Of course
uOder this extraordinary whig resolve, the Senate
!, not TO organize al all, unless these gentlemen
are 10 have the control Of every thing! Are they
mad, or 90 tneY suppose Iuc COuuII! Will SauCtIOu
such conduct? In this they greatly deceive them
selves. They have been sent here to do the pub
lie business, and not to run riot and carry away
every thing unless they to rule in all things.
Under such circumstances, wisdom and prudence
dictate both moderation and compromise. 1t is to
be hoped that whilst the democrats OF both branch
es act with becoming forbearance, they will at the
same time act firmly. What can Mr.. Senator Joy
ner expect, when he persists in voting not to make
but to defeat an election of Speaker? Has he
such love for the Office, as to be willing TO see
the Senate broken up unless his excellency shall
be allowed to fill it7 He is not called upon to VO-
late his caucus resolve, and TO vote for democrat
but he is called upon, by every sense of duty and
of delicacy, to cease voting, when by doing so he
only promotes an election and the organization of
the body. If there had been any assurance that
the absent Senator was detained on the way and
would arrive in due linIP then there might be some
apolopy. But there exists no such excuse as that
Senator is known to be absent on account of his
family and his arrival is not expected in any short
time. Let these gentlemen persist in their mad
career, and The people will not fail to remember
them in the hour of their trial.
