Mr.. Worthington, democratic sen
ator in congress, from Ohio, argues on
the question of ad journment in a style in
which, 1t is presumed, every federalist
will concur. Mr.. w. said that he
looked upon human nature as he found
1t; and considering, as regarded him

infinite service 10 his hriUate concerns !;

Cratlck member, said: "that the nation
J knew that the government could not go
to war without soldiers, and that sitting
the would certainly not restore feace

Staying there constantly add 10 the num-
Der OF men or expedite the loan If the
enemy were 10 invade US without any
| government at all, they would be
promptly resisted. If we begin war
before we have an army, it will bring
the nation to the 'aststate Of degradation,
not to consider all the suFerings * loss

ed" MIR B. had before said, it will be
observed, that congress could not, BY
staying there, add 90 me number of men

were to invade US without any govern

MIR. Clay and his Western brethren
may make light of our cities being laid
In ashes followed by flight to Ken
lucky and Ohio, but we shall take the
liberty to think for ourselves, as well as
to feel for ourselves, to deliberate for
ourselves. We tell them plainly WE
WILL MOI GO TO WAR; We
VIII not abandon our cities we will no,
take flight to the westward. And now,
LET THEM TRY IHEIR POWER
OVER Us IS SOON AS THEY
