tended to form a government for this
dittritt upon the BATS Of that formed by
the federal contribution, con6der the vaft

biennial elections obtain a preference in the
general government, hut its applications TO

from their ufaSe, he hoped the amendment
would take place.
Mr.. Bayard thought it Of very little
Importance whether the representatives of
this fnall dihrics wete choicn annually or
biennially, but another confederation was
weighty in his mind, why this govern

This bill was not Gmply to form govern

trIet, but for the whole Of the perfons
competing the government Of the United

foreign countries rehdent here. 1t was
for this, that the contribution made the
organization Of this government the pecu-

be amenable TO the government Of no fate

was entruned to the general government,
and that the government becomes part

OF no 70 complete model or form that could
be followed, or caabliihed, as that of
