From the Baltimore American ]

From tie baltimore American
Mr. Weems, of ,ais state, has made speech
ON MIR. Saunders's famous resolution relative to
the publishers Of the laws. This speech is, in
eysry point, an admirable pattern Gifts sort, and
worthy Of the resolution which called it forth.
In cogency aud closeness of argument, in neat
ness and strength ofstyle, in lucid arrangement,
and, above all, in candor and modesty, II will be
found one Of the happiest failures OF the day,
aud hardly suypassable, on the whole, In any Ju-
yenile spou,ing club in the country. what
adds largely 10 lis merit, is that the reader may,
without any yiolen, improoabihty, readily eon-
lecture it to have been pronounced on any oeca-
sion, a happy consequence OF the ingenuity OF
lis author, who informs US, somewhat unneces-
s,r;lv. tina, he esIoes not mean 10 be SPECIFIC IN
has remarks" II is seldom that any speaker
reaches his aim Sc adroiily. This gentleman,
opraced like Mansfield, with all the power oil
words" closely resembles also, in one passage
of his life, the great Earl of Chatham. On
late vote. where the sues tion was about punish
ing an editor who doubted his influence on the
floor. Mr.. Weems inlhe affirmative, like the
great Secretary, "stood alone" fe, this is the
man whose propositions our representatives Oft
en- refuse even to consider;-one proof among a
thousand, Of the injudiciousness OF speaking
what one thinks a, least when the speaker thinks
no better than MIR Weems.
MIR. Floyd's Report, which we publish to-
day, compared with the report of the Commit
zee, will enable our readers to Judge very cor
rectlv, how far the Committee have implicated
MIR. Calhoun in the irregularities OF the War
Depai tmen,; and how far the Alliance have
mistaken their policy by inviting "the freesi in
yes,iga,iou,' when in truth they were opposed
to what they ,ked, and were taS'" i" by its be-
ing granted.
We shall publish The Vice Presidents Pro
test 20 morrow. II shows conclusively that the
evidence before the Committee warranted their
Report, and that thew could not consistently a.
gree TO Mr. Floyd's proposition to acquit Mr..
Calhoun Of having coanicsd at improper condacf
an any Of his subordinate officers.
The candid editor of the Richmond Enqui-
rer says, in his last paper, that "the rmnsSs and
discretion of the Opposition will sea! It's fate be-
yond the possibility of redemption. We
think so, too;-for by the words 'Jfrmness and
discretion which Mr.. Richie has carefully put
in iiaHcs, he evidently means the impudenee and
firolifu of little Hamilton, who, in humble i'm
imitation of Randolph, nauseates the House OF
Representatives, with his bullying gestures
and sickly witticisms. Such frmnsss and dis
crefioa'' sealed Randolph's fate, hence MIR.
Richie, very fairly infers that it will seal the
fate of the Opposition

Gov. TYLER AND Mn. CLAY.-A report has
lately reached us, witch has staggered our latin N
Gov. TYLER, and which if true, as we are apprehen
sive it will prove will utterly destroy the confidence
we had reposed in him, and cause The Legislature
to repent if they have not already done II, the hour
1 in which they chose him as the successor OF John
Randolph in the Senate of the United States. Inc
report 10 which we allude is this--That Mr. Clay,
within the las, few days stated in conversation with
several gentlemen n, that shortly alter the determine
ton Of the late Presidential election in the House OF
Repre- sen,atives, he received letter from Gov Iy
Ter approvng in unqualified terms OF his, Mr. C's
course, in that election, and congratulatng Mr. =.
and the country upon the result. We have seen o
gentle Of undoubed veracy who had this state
men, from one OF those TO whom Mr.. Clay eommu.
ncated it, and We give il to the public as we rece'v-
ed it, that i. may be fasifed by Gov Tyler, or hs
friends, il untrue. II true, the people of Virgins
have been grossly deceived and imposed upon 10 the
election OF Gov Tyler to The Senase-they diiier
most widely with him as to The propriesy OF Mr..
4 3Clays conduct and would be unwilling to De repre-
sen,ed by him or any other man who thinks win
him on that subject II il should turn out that such
a letter a. that we have described, was written BY
Governor Tyler TO MIR. Clay, we would respectfully
Aenquire whether tha. fact known to the Legs
lature when they entered upon the late election OF
5Senator ?
Remark The above is from strong oppos-
4 ton paper. OF Gov. yfer's high opinion OF Nr.
Clay and OF his approval of his conduct on the Pre-
sidental question, we have before been apprised 30
far from the Legislature "repenting The hour IN
which they chose him as the successor oil John han-
dolph," they will have cause to rejoice IN the act 10
