The Report-Since our last two attempts have
been made to call up the report of the Select Com
mittee to whom the Georgia and South Carolina re-
solutions communicated by the Governor were re-
ferred. Both attempts were defeated-the last af-
ter an elaborate discussion for sketch of whichwe
referto another column.
Various considerations have united to induce the
House to nail the report to the table--to some Of
which we will briefly alude. l. The lateness Of
the session. no doubt had its influence, but this can
only be urged by those who admit, that to act again
upon the subjects OF the report supererogation.

sentiment Of disapprobation is not confined to the
Administration ranks, but is warmly felt and express
sed by all sides. 1t was indeed, to quote from itself
AN Sc ill fated, and injudicious step." 8. Another
consideration was that Virginia had already, often
and strongly enough, asserted her opinions on the
subjects of the Tariff and Internal Improvement
a. further consideration the liberal view OF
the Colonization Society, taken in the Georgia and
South Carolina resolutions, and indirectly adopted
by the report. s. But it is not to be concealed,
that there is increasing dispostont to counenance
manufactures in Virginia, and remotely sotening
towards the tariff, as protecting them.
But at least, the fate Of this report demonstrates
the sincerity of the attachment which the General
Assembly feels towards the Union, and their reso-
luton to ste any, the remotest approach to disso-
luton. We hail the decision, as renewed decla-
ration on the part of Virginia Of adhesion to the
Unon-and her determination to bear much before
she will venture upon the fatal step of dissolution
In this point of view amply sustained by the course
and sentiments of the debate, we consider the relu-

their departure from Ireland. Mr.. Clinton and his
friends continued III that part of the country until
1881, when he removed to Ulster county, New
York, where he settled and devoted himselfto to agr.
culture. He was successfully appointed Justice
OF the Peace, a Judge of the County, and Leuten-

GOVERNOR CLINTON.

However different may have been the opinions
formed of the political course of Gov Clinton, all
will agree that he was man of the first rank in
republic for talents, intelligence and ability. His
life has been an active one, and if the public bcne
fits only, which may be traced to his agency, re-
membered, his name will be held in universal honor
In his native State, he has experienced the most
singular vicisstudes of popularity yet at all times
his greatness has been acknowledged. For the
opinions recently ascrbed to him on the subject of
the Presidency, much regret has been felt by many
who have looked up to him with respect and conf
dcnce but death which has removed him from the
scene of action, has removed also the intlucement
to rigorous scrutiny of the motives which governed
him. aud placed him beyond the reach of that praise
or censure which proceeds from the feeble breath OF
his fellow men, His virtues will find all eulogist,
and his public life a historian. We shall not attempt
either !; but have condensed from late biographi-
| cal work the following particulars of his family.
/ WiiEam Clinton, the earliest of his ancestors OF
whom mention is made, was loyalist and an officer
| in the army Of Charles First. For some time after
the death of that monarch, he was in exile on the
tnent but returning secretly, he married in Scot
land, and passed to ireland for greater security
where he died leaving an only son, James, aged two
years.
Jan,es Clinton, the son Of William, on arriving to
manhood, made an unsuccessful attempt to recover
his patrimony in England, but married the daughter
ofa captain in the army of Cromwell, by which he
was enabled to maintain respectable standing in
the country where he resided.
Charles Clinton, the son Of James, was born in
the county of Langford, in Ireland, in l69o lie
emigrated to America in 1929. They left Ireland
on the Goth fMay. On their passage. Mr.. Clinton
and his associates were exposed to great pers from
the base and brutal conduct of the Captain, and
were finally compelled to commute with him fol
their lives by the payment of large sum of money
+. After being at sea for some time, it was discover
ed that he had formed design of starving his pas
sengers to death, either with view to obtain the
property, or to deter emigration. Several of thu
passengers actually died, among whom were sol
