set up their candidates for the" Oi'ilCCS" or
President and Vice President? From a
disunion, no election is made. A choice
devolves on the house of Representzttivcs.
By this resolution a choice must be made
from the candidates presented by three of
these sections of the union,- to the total ex
clusion of the fourth ; and which that-"fourth
will be, is not difficult to predict. The n
doption of this part of the resolution is,
on thisctaccount, extremely objeCtion'z-tble.
Butsisir, the Senntc have in this resolu
tion proposed to alter the constitution, in
another'important particular; ansitl'have va
ried, essentielly from the resOlutidn,_which
we sent to them. No lesssi in eﬀect-, than
to take_thesi choice from us, the immediate
Representatives of the people, and assume
it to themselves. " And we are called upon
to sobmit to this! 'I speak not now, under
the impression of state or any other-local
feelings, but-as'ssthc Representative of a free
people. ctln case no choice is made by the
electors, the-constitution has con-ficled that
choice to the Reprcsentative's of the peOple,
without even the concurrence of the Se
nate. By the resolution on. your table, we
surrender that power wholly , it:-certain e
vents .to the Senate.
ﬀthat-in case" an election shssouid devolve on the ct
House ot'Represematives; thcssvote must be taken
ss by times,- and he says, that the Senate are pect.
cuiiauly the .Representntives of the states, and

add nothing to their weight by a. repetition.
But l may be permitted again, to call the
attention of the—house; to the important and
singular additions which thesi'Senate have
annexed to the discriminating principle.—
We sent a resolution to the Senctate, in
which we declared, that in case no choice
should he made by the electors, a Presi
dent should be chosen from the five per
sons, highest on the list. The Senatc have
not adopted this, but sent down to 'us, the
number three. VVit—hout attending: at'this
time to verbal criticism, or adverting to the
extreme ambiguity-of the sentence" which
contains the number or numbers ospersons,
or classes of persons, out of which the
house of Repressientatives are to chuse, in
ease no election is made by the electors; l
will oniy say, that whether three in that
sentencesssiis made to refer to persons, or to
classes of persons, highest on the list, it is
in either view. the most oizjsiectionable num
ber," which the Senate could have selected.
I am not disposed to cultivate iot-ai fssclings,
or distinctions arising from geograisszhieal
Situations. But, sir, such is'the exzent of
this country; such it diversity oi interests.
