nan from York (Mr csrdenicr) whom
he did not now see in his place, but if he
was within the walls he should be glad to
know. lie had intended in tile first place 70
have acknowledged and expressed il his
plain way, his gratitude to the gentleman
for his endeavors 70 eniighten the House,
and this he should have endeayOrcd to do in a
veryfew words. This memberhad expressed
his extreme surprize that the motion which
he had offered OH former Gay had not been
more adyerted to BY members Of the House ),
lie should have recolected that every men,
Der of the House was not endued with the
same sagacity and penetrating genius which
he 50 abundantly possesses. But permit me
70 say said Mr.. 5. that was not less sur
prlscd than that gentleman could be, that
the first move made this morning was not
(mder existing circumstances TO withdraw
the resolution. It was fact known and
believed by every member on the floor, that
the proper Authority had undertaken 70 IN
vgstgate the object Of tic resolution. I'm
der consideration and from tull convic-
ton that this House was not the proper trl
bunal to try this case his surp"ize and diSap-
pontment tvaI surpassed that expressed by
the member from New-York, that The sub
iect had not been taken Up yesterday n Irn-
ing. Mr.. 5. said he was then prepared to
have made a pretty lengthy speech, the
notes for which he now held in his hand
but the House had been taken up the whoie
day IN discussing what course they should
give to a certain (YazOO) memorial. IN The
course of that debate lie had been much IN
structed BY the member from Vermont
(Mr. Elliott being warned Ofthe taking the
bull by the horns, and also something about
4 club and Hercules although these ex
pressions were some what obsoARe, they had
raised some sensation in his mind, and in
duced him to think he had better be eau
tious how he made speeches or that floor
he had therefore concluded not to make this
long speech he had digested and prepared.
But before he sat down, he would say,
that being privy 70 certain circums, ances,
although he had TO right to speak Of them,
he had certainly right q think and he
would sta.e what thoughts this resolution
produced III his mind. Knowing, as no
doubt every member Of the House did, Of
Uht had lately turned up between &C. %
great men, it brought 70 his mind a cIrcum-
stance which might &c thought simple, but
hc hoped lie might be permitted ID intro
duce slrIile when lie went to school in
his youthful aays he had seen little ARRAYS
turn up between the boys, and he had
known those who were likely to yet HE
worst of the bargain, cry out, "II tell dad
~ or nanny Ill tell my master" This
struck Mr.. very fOrciOly as applicable to
the present case.

Agrecably to the resolution Of the

respecting the charge against NVilkin-
son, of which the following is sum
mary -
In 1872, Connolly, from Detroit, sen. a
mission To Wilkinson Wilkinson informed,
IN letter to q person i'll Ncw-Orlc ns, that
he meant to adhere 10 the Spanards. The
plan was a severance ofthc Western country
into separate government, in ali ance with

signed To Clark belonging tcWilkinson. and
sent to philadelphia III l794. one owen
and one Collins. friends 20 Wilkinson. were
entrusted with GOO dollars ;cr Wilkinson
and others Owen N going up the Ohio,
was murdered Tie transaction awakened
the suspicion Bf Cen WayI., who endcay-
ordcd ID Intercept Wilkinson's letters 10
the Spanish government, but without sue
cess.
1T was disclosed to him BY Collins. and
Wilkinson himself, that IL, 900 dollars we're
shipped to Charlcston-that Wilkinson
complained % him CLARK that lie had de-
rived very little advantage from the money.
Powers told Clark he carried letters from
the Spanish government to Wilkinson and
that he, (Powcrs) delivered money which
came from the Spanish Government, to one
Nuland, hy Wilkinson's directions. Clark
says that in 1926, BY Wilkinson's request.
he visited him at Lotus Height, and pas
sed three days and nights in his tent. Will
kinson then stated to Clark, there was
balance Of 10000 dollars due him from the
Spanish government. Clark then asked
him If il Was On account Of his pension-he
ans wered il was Wilkinson then prOD0-
scd to Clark, that he should endeavour to
negotiate with Gayoso-that the latter
should, in payment Of the 10000 dollars, as.
sign 60 hin his plantation at Natchez, and
take his pay at w-Orleans.-Wilkins
wished Mr.. Clark t1 do something respect
ing what lie understood lie had slid about
his being a pCn,ioncr.-Mr. Clark told him
he had oI,en spoken of 1t, but never to his
(Wlikinson's) government Wilkinson
then told him. after considerable converse
ton upJn political and other subjects, tia.
the uniun Of these States were bound to-
gether by nothing better than Z rope j.
sand Clark at this time was a SUBJECT OF
Spain, and did not consider himselfat lDer-
~ TO communicate these matters to the A.

Mr.. Rowan (from KENTUCKY declar-

in the project; and had Consul at

He wished fdllinquiry tobe made /;
Il which he believed there were other
characters, III nigh situations, 7yho 7vould

CT to pension the commander of the
army of another power was good cause
of war.
The resolution was opposed on the ground
that It would be prejudging the case that
Wilkinson was not now on trial, that con-
of delicacy towards the EXecu-
