DEPARTMENT OF VAR,


SIR: In compliance with resolution
oil the House Of Representatives OF the
LIST Decem Der, 1920, directing ihat the
Secretary of War Communicate 10 that
House what sums OF morty have been
actually paid to Col. Jamys Johnson, Oh
account Of transportation furnished the
expedition ordered upAthe Missouri
river; and also what sums have been
paid him for detentiono i steam boats, or
other incidental charges, and the causes
of such detention: whether any differ
ence of opinion existed between the De-
partment Of War and the said Col. James
Johnson, relative to the value OF trans
portation or other charges exhibited by
him against the United States and what
evidence was submitted to them, on
which they formed thcil opinion-l in
close letter to this Department from
the Quartermaster Genc'al, which, with
the documents accompanying it, con-
tains the information directed to be COM
municated. BY reference to the report,
it will appear, that ditfelence OF opinion
existed between the Department and the
contractor in relation to he charges OF
the latter; and that, according to the
terms of the contract, thd points OF dit
ference were referred, a was stated in
the report of this Dep rtment to the
House of Representative of the I'd of
February last. 1t was in the first in
stance determined to ha K the reference
at or near to St. Louis hnd Gen. Rec
tor, of that place was selected, with that
view, on the part OF the bvernment, and
Col. Morrison, Of Lexington, Kentucky,
on that of the contractor but, on appli-
cation on the part of the contractor, the
place was changed to thi$city, under the
belief that it would be mutual accom-
mediation, and facilitate the ultimate de-
cision. 1t thus became necessary to Sc
lect other persons, and Commodore
Rodgers was chosen as the referee on the
part of the government, and Gen. John
Mason, of Georgetown,on .tipt of the
contractor; and, with the assent Of the
parties, the Attorney-Genera of the
United States was selected as| the UNI
pire. The Attorney General living de-
clined to act, the arbitrator, in Pnlormi-
ty to the terms of the ractlselected
Walter Jones, Esq. as umpire.

has been paid to the contractor, contains

The large majority against the Fifth Article
does not prove an uniformity Of opinion on the
subject Of it., While some voted against it be-
cause the Senate was to be constituted as it
now is many others rejected it on account
Of the proposed system Of representation in the
popular branch, believing the evils of the ex-
listing system not to be so great as to require
the adoption of new one so unequal in its
operation.
The fact that to every article there are some
Nays may be accounted for, partly, on the
ground that some individuals, unwilling to
hazard certainty for an uncertainty, were de-
,termined to consent to no alteration in Con-
sstitution which, they believe, does not require
any amendment.
We have received statements Of. the votes
in several towns but it is impossible for us to
present, at this time, ayiew of the votes upon
oil the articles. The first, fifth, and tenth are,
therefore, selected, (relating to the Bill Of
Rights, to the system Of Representation, and to
Harcurd College, because these articles appear
to have the most interested the publick mind.

THE CONSTITUTION.

On Monday last, the people Of this State vol.
ed upon the question Of ratifying the amend.
ments to their Constitution, which were pro-
posed by the Convention.
In this town very little interest appeared to
be felt on the subject. The meeting was
thinly attended, not more than one half the
number of legal uOters being prescnt and no
discussion was had upon either ofthe articles.
The vote was taken by ballot, and the result
was declared to be as follows -

Ii is the custom in Boston, with both politi-
cal parties, to hold general caucus on the
evening preceding the April Election. At the
federal caucus, in Fanueil Hall, four or five
thousand persons are sometimes present ; and
the assembly is usually addressed by some of
the most distinguished citizens.
It may be recollected that, year since,
some new arrangements were made in Boston,
as to the mode of making their nominations
general committee was appointed, and ward
committees chosen, whose duty it was to SEE
lect candidates in the first instance, and then
to report them to the general caucus to be
holden on the evening preceding the election.
BY the operation of this arrangement it so hap
pened that Mr.. QUIEcY, who had, for several
years, been on the list of Senators, was last
year excluded from it, without any publick
explanation of the matter. Mr.. Quincy, new
erthelcss, who was present when this was done,
magnanimously advocated the acceptance OF
the new list. His fellow-townsmen, perhaps
ashamed of their unworthy treatment Of him,
elected him, in May, as one Of their Repre-
sentatives. He now fills the Speakers chair
so that this freak of the toic7a has been of SER
vice to the State.
We have given this little narrative (oad Of
the ,cay as it may seem, in order that our read
ers may the better understand the illusions
contained in the extract, which is below, from
the Speech of MIR. Quincy, at the general eau
gus Of this year. sketch of his Speech is
given in the last Galaxy, and we select pas
sage from it, not to show what every body all
peady knows, that Mr.. Quincy is open, undis-
guised, independent and honest in his politicks,
but to give our readers a specimen Of his good
nature and spo,tive krtn,onr, upon subjecttoo,
which, in men Of smaller minds, often excites
the most bitter feelings.
