tertiary of his Imperial Majei9y as King
of Hungary and Bohemia.
Letters from Italy inform us that an
army is to be formed in Romania, to be
competed of Auiirian troops of which the
CARTON of Ferrara and Ancona are to make
part. it is added, that the troops of the
powers in alliance with Auifria are to ioir
this army, and to act in concert, in cafe
they fhould be forced to renew the war.
The Rufiian army :aaembled on the from
tiers of Gallicia, receives daily reinforce
ments, which indicates an Interior deitina-
ton.
Nothing can exceed the devotion of the
Hungarians in the -prefent circumstances.
They declare their zeal to defend the

NETS to exert then1ielyes to force the ene-.

when he commits fpeech to writing (for
bysno other name could he defgnate the
firing Of refolutions which he had moved)
in terms Of harlhnels. the con-
duet of a public officer, he ,con6dered him
as propoGng an Unprecedented fep. AS
we'll might he move to refer what had
fallen from him in debate this day.
In his opinion MIR. Otis faid, the fub-
jet, deiired by the gentleman from Ken
lucky could be accomplished with much
greater propriety in the uiual way, than in
that now propofed. 81 SIS
But the gentleman aks, if the charges
are true that are contained in the refolu-
tions, why mot pats them If taAe why
not expunge them? How faid Mss Otis,
are theie charges proved : He con6ded
in the veracity of.the gentleman /; and was
perfuaded that he would not FAY what he
did not himielf believe; but his belief
could not impart to other gentlemen
the fame arength of conviction with him.
iclf.
IF the people Of this territory are really
oppreacd, if they groan under the prenure
Of tyrannial and unconttitutional laws, let
thoie laws be examined, and repealed.
But when he found gentleman coming
from the ne;ghbourhood of the territory,
aetuated by perfonal and local eonGderati-
ons, and animated by zeal chat dictated
fentiments, which in cooler moments the
gentleman hin,fslf would not approve, he
could not avoid heftating in taking his
opinions as the guide of his vote.
This, fir, faid Mr.. Otis, is not a quei9i-
on of federalilm or anti federalilin. IF
the fun of federalilm, as the gentleman
from Kentucky anerts, be fet; if the ad-
mlniaration be changed may not fuch
meaiure as this Rrike back upon its au-
thors, and produce change in the tide of
eyents--H the fun of federaliim be fct,
would it not be unkind in US, the very day
after it, to fuffer the gentleman to iniure
themfelves by fuch an act?
Hope, continued Mr.. Otis, that the.
fun of federalifm is not fet. IF it really
be fet, | hope that the fatcllite which that
gentleman inhabits will not ,ioon expert |
ence the want Gifts animating and protect
ing influence. I believe it is not 1et.
and ardently hope that that quarter Of
the union, as well as all the ref, will long
continue to feel its vivifying effects. 81
1t might be proper to repeal the obnox
ious laws, without branding with corrupt
motives thoie who enacted them. Mr..
Otis concluded with declaring that in the
accomplishment of this purpole, if exami-
nation and enquiry warranted it, as we'll
as III every proper fep to crafty the citi-
zens OF the Midifippi territory, he would
heartily concur.
