~ He will continue to employ such means of conciE-
Sf'on as may be consistent with the due maintc
nance OF the rights s. interests of the British en-
pire-Speech Of the Prince Regent.
We have not words to express our indignation at
the plot disclosed by the following proceedngs--The
Union of these States, the ark of political cove
nant, (may It wither every hand that touches it y
has been assaulted by British Emissares and British,
Governors What volumes of lessons does it teach
our discontinued citizens! What floods of light are
shed upon the policy and /" conciatiou" Of, Great
Britain Z! What madness s. pronigacy in her councils!
Curse on all spies, say we whether they "
cret' or " privileged" Ones We think it full time
TO send them all a-packing time to avenge our vi
oated rights and violated honor; and to drive back
chat storm upon the government of Canada, which
they were preparing for ourselves.
There is little to choose between Sir ]. Craig Ry-
land, Henry, and my Lord Liverpool; the one form
cd the plot the other communicated it, the third tii-
ca to execute it and dyulged it from motives of
senge, and my Lord Liverpool recognized the service
and wished to reward it.. Viainy, and hostility are
stamped upon all Of them. EA Emp.

{. lay before Congress copies of certain
documents which remain in the Department
OF State. They prove that at recent period
!, whilst the United States, notwithstanding the
wrongs sustained by them, ceased not to OBJ
serve the laws of peace and neutrality to-
wards Great Britain, and in the midst of "a
micable professions and negotiations on the
part of the British government through its
public minister here, secret agent of tina,
government was employed in certain states
more especially at the seat of government in
massachusetts, in fomenting disaffection tc
tae constituted authorities of the nation and
m intrigues with the disaffected for the pur
pose OF bringing about resistance to the laws
and eventually, in ; concert with a British
FORCE, OF destroying tl,e Union and forming
the eastern part thereof into political con.
nection with Great Britain. a.
In addition to the effect which the discov-
cry OF such procedure ought to have on the
public councils, it will not fail to render more
dear to the hearts of all good citizens tina,
happy Union of these states, which under
Divine Providence, is the guaranty of thei,

THE WAR.

War having been formally declared a.
gainst Great Britain, and the President hav--
ing solemnly enjoined it upon all good ci--
tizens to do their duty, it is expected thar
every man will use his utmost exertions. ac-
cording to his situation and ability, to carry
it on with vigor. At least, the ration has a
rightto require, on the part even of those
who are opposed to the war, concurrence:
IN all the measures necessary for carrying it
on with suitable spirit. This right accr1cs
from the nature OF our government, in WHICH
the Will or the majority is the lawful will Of
the nation When that will is once exoress-
ed and known, e<eciaLty in tie case Of mr..
all opposition to it is highly criminal We
speak, however, with distinctions we do
not mean to say that truth ought to b.. sum,
pressed, that fair argument ought to be D,,t
down-but only, that falshood should be A.
voided, and that the acts Of government
should have their full force and effect on tho
public mind. here are many things which.
although reprehensible. in themselves, are
passed over IN time Of peace, that cannot be
overlooked during the prevalence cf hostile
ties. such are all inilammatory haran-ucs
whether verbal or printed tending 10 array
any portion of citizens against tie const;f,5-
ted authorities and such, too. are the stare
meuts calculated tn inspire the enemy with
confluence and to impress despair ON the
minds ot our COuntrymen. Those iournal-
lists, VINO claim for themselves the unrestrict-
ed license OF propagatiug whatsoever they
please III relation to public affairs. careless
OF the injury the nation may sustain f,on,
what they utter, should be Cautious, lest they
become the victims OF their own doctrinc.
concerning the province Of the press. In

pie, always have a double action-~tl,ev act

en- in believing, thatthe refusal CT the House
to consider, such a proposition, so brought
forward, Will be approved by the good sense
vi An intelligent publics 1t is said that
precedent for such motion is to be found
in the motion OF Mr.. Sprisg, made in 1898
That gentleman, VIXEN the House was in
committee OF the whole, on the state of the
Union. oG;red three resolutions, of which
one was negative, and the other two AFR
native. The subject before the committee
was the Presidents message of 19th March,
1873. At that time, the practice (now no
longer c4isting) prevailed to discuss such
messages in full. That message was war
message. Being Reconsideration, it was
the nature OF an affirmative proposition Tor
war, to which Mr.. Sprigg's motion, in The
nature OF an amendment, was the negative.
The message was the text, the primary sub
lject; his motion was incidental and ancilla-
ry But Mr.. RS motion WAS primitive, and
not appurtenant to any pending question. In
the instance Of Mr.. Sprgg, no point was
made whether the committee would consi-
der the proposition. Perhaps, being di-
rect response to the Message, they were
bound to consider it, or not to act upon the
message. Out of MIR, RS motion, suppos-
ing it adopted, no positive act could grow.
1t would be. as IT the House should formally
| adopt an original resolution, that they would
| not pass particular law. The cases of
Mr.. r. and Mr.. S are not analogous. Sup
posing, however, that they were, in all their
material circumstances, what would be pro-
ven! Only that body, having the power to
prescribe the time when it will consider the
subjects brought before it, has seen fit at one
time (no reason then existing against il, to
deliberate upon questions, which at another
time (when there are cogent reasons against
it,) has not thought proper to consider.
The right OF the House of Representatives
to regulate its own proceedings, is quite ma
nifest, whether VIC advert to the express
provision of the Constitution, or to the nature
and properties of deiiberative body. 1t is
undoubtedly responsible for the abuse of that
right, no less than it is for the abuse of any
other power with which it is invested. Whe-
Their, in the instance under consideration, it
has so abused its authority as to excite a.
larm or justify censure, Will be Justly deter
mined by the candor of the public, to whom
alone it is amenable.

WAsH1Ncron C1rr Inne ;


The veil is al length removed from the Sc
cret Proceedings of Congress; and it ap-
pears that unqualified WAR is declared be-
tween the UNITED STATES and GREAT
BRITAIN. The measure mus, have been
long anticipated, and therefore cannot excite
surprize. Its adoption, however, stamps
reality on what was before mere inference
and conjecture.
1t would be the height of presumption in
us to obtrude on the public attention any re-
marks of ours in the same paper in which
we present to it the eloquent and perspicu-
GUS Message of the Executive, and the e.
qualIy admirable Report or Manifesto of the
committee of Foreign Relations. The mo-
tives and object of the measure are therein
sufficiently developed and explained. We
will only say, that as the measure of War
has been at length adopted from convict
on OF its necessity almost to the existence
OF the nation, we offer our sincere prayers
andardenthopes for vigorous prosecution &
successful termination of the contest in which
we are about 20 engage.
