the house thus stood divided Into three parties,
il was certain no choice could be made. He
had uniformly supported the list denominateo
the Crawford ticket, but he found il useless
to contend in this manner, and for the pur
pose Of getting a nomination i'm the house, he
would offer resolution embracing what was
called the Adams ticket, for adoption. In do
ing this Mr.. f. Wished il 10 he distinctly I'M
drrsto0d, that he should not vote for the ticket

take this course !; aud as the Adams ticket had
the most friends in the house, he thought il
his duty to propose that instead Of the one
favorable to Mr.. Clay.

OF proceeding He did not wish TO disguise
his sentiments g. he declared that if MIR. Craw

uotice that he should support Mr.. Adams, and
should get many Of his friends TO go with
him as possible. lie also expressed his 0pini-
on that the friends OF Mr.. Crawford would
gain nothing by such course.
Mr.. Livingston moved that the resolution

frlepds hut Tor the reasons assigned by It's mo-
yer he should vote TOR il /; but wished to be
explicitly understood that he should not sup
port the electors named when the houses

Mr.. Waterman took the same grounds in
favor of the resolution.
MIR. Nluilet said that when gentlemen rose
in,their places and a,owed that they should
vote TOR list of electors by way of resolution
which they would not support when they
came 10 a ballot il was time To pause, for thes
declared that they were about to give an IN
sincere vote. He thought that If they voted
Tor the resolution Ia produce nomination,
ihey should vote for the same list throughout.
MI. Fiagg repealed the charge OF sincerity,
inasmuch as he bad stated explicitly the rea-
sons for his vote as well az those " no should
go with him, who yet IN favor of another
candidate, and whom they meant to support
on the final ballot.
Mr.. Wheaton was in favor of LAYING thu.

ticket.
