* Tbofe %cbo have or can procure Lloyd's Con-
Z r ff° na t R e gife r i are referred to No. 9, IO and 1 I
6/ tbe frft volume, and Nil of the fecund, for the
entire debates upon this fubjea.
Extrad from Mr. Madifwn's fpeecb, delivered in
the Heufe of Representatives, on tie 16tb da, of
June, 1789. ^f
"I am clearly of opinion, with the gentle
man from South Carolina (Mr. Smith) that we
ought in this and . everv other case, to adhere
to the conftittition, so hr as it will serve as a
guide to us, and that we ought not to be sway
ed in our decisions by the fplend^ur of the
char#Rer of the present Chief Magistrate, hut
to confider it with refped to the merit of men
who, in the ordinary course of things, may be
supposed to fill the chair. I.believe ,the power
here declared is a bigb one and in feme refpeds
a dangerous one; bucin order to come to a right
decision on this point, we must confider both
tildes of the question. The possible übufes
which may spring from the single will of the
firft Magistrate,and the abuse which may spring
from the combined will of the executive and
fe^atorial disqualification.
" When we confider that the firft Magistrate
is to be appointed at present by the fuffrages ot
3,000,006 of people, and in ail human proba
bility, in a few yeats time, by double that num
ber, it is not to be presumed that a vicious of
bad cbar^aer will be eleded. If the govern
ment of any country on the face of the earth
was ever effectually guarded against the election
of ambitious and defining characters to the firft
office of state, I think it may with truth be said
to be the case under the constitution of the U.
States, With all the infirmities incident to a
popular election, ctfrreded by the particular
mode of conducing it, as dire^ed under the
prefebt system, I think we may fairly calculate,
that the instances will be very rare in which an
unttotb, man will receive that maik of the
public conndence which is required to defignite
the Pfrefident of the U. States, When the ,cb-
Thh bill contained a clause fubjeding the
Secretary to removal from office by the Presi
dent of the U: States; and in committee of
the whole on the 16th day of June, 'B9; Mr.
White, of Virginia, moved to strike out these
words, “ to be removed from office by the
President of the U. States. The great ob
jections to this clause were ; iff. The uncon
flitutionality of the grant. 2d, That the pow
er was a very dangerous one, and might, by
some future President, be abnfed and made sub
servient to his malignant pailions, and to pro
vide for his tools and sycophants.
This motion was supported by Mr. Smith,
bf South Carolina, Mr. Livermore, and Mr.
Gerry, of Massachusetts, Mr. Page, of Virgin
ia, Mr. Scone, of Maryland, Mr. Jackson, of
Georgia, and many other members. .and was
chiefly opposed by Mr. Madison, of Virginia,
Mr. Lawrence of New-York, Mr. Boudinot,
Mr. Ames, Mr. Baldwin, Mr. Lee, &c.
It is greatly to be lamented, fellow-citizens,
that you cannot have an opportunity of exam
ining these debates in derail, and judging for
yourfelvo, but it is averred that on both" fidcs
the fame sentiments obtained.* It was con
ceded on all hands that the power Was a dan
gerous one, and fetiotis appreh?nhpus were
entertained that feme future President might
abuse it. All however agreed, no evil could
tefuit from giving it to the then Chief Magis
trate, in the justice and fplcndor of whole cha
radter all united, tn this indeed they were
truly correct. In the abuse of the power by a
future President they were alfb fatally corre&.
We have already fecn in the short period of
only about 4 months, nearly 50 “ meritorious,
officers" dismissed. For what, fellow-citizens?
Hear again what that enlightened flatelman,
Mr. Madison observed upon this occasion.
Read the sentiments of Mr. Lawrence.

" We ought not to befwayed in our deci

g. See debates in the House of Repref-ntati^es—
Mr. MADlSON'jfpeecb in June, 1,89.
Believing that it will not be convenient
to publish entire the debates in the House of
Representatives, as requested in my last, rela
tive to the power of removing officers by the
President, on account of their extreme length ;
the course of my observations as laid open in my
own mind, founded upon the authorities in
which I was about to resort, must in some de
gree take a different direction. It will there
fore be proper to give a ffiort hiftory of this
business, and briefly to state what appears to
have been the opinion and understanding of the
different members es the then House, who
delivered their sentiments upon this high, and
to use an expression of Page, this " royal pre
rogative” with which Congress were about to
invest the President of the U. States.
At the firft session of thefirft Congress, affertt
bled under the present government, a bill was
introduced, the object of which was to establish
an Executive Department, to be denominated
" the Department of Foreign Affairs," which
is considered equivalent to the existing " De
partment of State."

Q -
Extract from Mr. Lawrence's ff' : ' cn the 17th
fone, 17^9. .<
" tn the constitution the [lpads of Depart
ments are coniidcred as mere uffiftants to the
President in the performance of his executive
duties. He has the fypctiDtendange, the ton
troul and infpeftion of their conduct ; he has an
intimate connexion with them ; they, must re
ceive from him his orders and directions; the,
must znfwer his enquiries in writing when he
requires it. Shall the perfpn having thefr Supe
rior powers to govern, with such advantages of
discovering and defeating the bast intentions of hi,
officers, their delinquencies, their defective abilities
or their negligence, be retrained from applying
theft advantages to the most ufeful, nay in
some cases, the only vl'eful purpofc, which can
be answered by them?
“ It appears to me that the power can be fully
lodged here. But it has been said by some gen
tlemen, that if it is lodged here it will be fubje&
to abuse; that there may be a change of offi
cers, and a complete revolution throughout the
whole executive department, upon the election
bf every new President. ~ admit this may be
the case, and contend that it should be the case
if the President thinks it necessary (provided
the officer is incapable er vicious,) 1 contend
that every Prefldent ought to have those men a
bout him in whom he can place the most confi
dence, provided the Senate approve his choice.
But we are not from hence to infer that chang
es will be made in a wanton manner, and from
capricious motives; because the Presidents are
checked and guarded in a very fafe manner,
with refpea to the appointment of their suc
cessors ; from all which it may be fairly presum
ed, that changes will be made on principles of
policy and propriety, only.
“ Will the man chosen by 3,000,000 of his
fellow-citizens be.fuch a wretch as to abuse
them in a wanton manner? For my part I
should think with the gentleman from Vir
ginia (Mr. Madison) that a charrfter thus fe
leded and honored by his country, is entitled to
my confidence; and 1 fre no reason why we
should fuppbfe he is more inclined to do barns
than good. Eleded as he is, I rust we are se
cure. Ido not draw thefc observations frpm
the fafery I conceive under the present admin
istration, or because our Chief Magistrate is
poffrffed of irradiated virtues, whose luftre
brightens this Weflern Hemisphere, and incites
the admiration of the world! but I calculate
tipon what our mode of election is likely to
bring forward, and the security which the cone
flitution affords. If the President abufa Lie
trtf, will he escape the popular cenftfre, when
the period which terminates his elevation ar
rives ? And would he not he liable to impeach
ment for displacing a worthy and able man, who
enjoyed the confidence of the people ?"
1 HE Federalists havebeen acenfed of
favouring aristocracy; or in other
words, in placing all power in the
hands of a few, to the exclusion of a
great portion of the community-—These
few have been (tiled the well-born, a
ristocrats monarchists : and a variety of
other names and epithets have been em
ployed to render the governed diffatif
fied with those who held the reigns of
government, or were placed in offices
of distinction or emolument.
