 rom tilc other, the imitation istfie Ere [ sldent's. The bill makes the President, ne says, sole judge oi the Constitution. l Does he mean to say that the President l has recommended treasure which Is to make him sole judge oi the Consi- tution? The blll, he declares, sacrifices every thing to toafbtfary po~ef-lle will lend aid to its passage-he would rather s'be dog and bay the moon, than such a Roman" lie did not say "Old Roman" Yct the gentlemen we'll knows If any thing is sacrificed to arhi- trary power, this sacrifice has been de- manded by the "0ld Roman" as he anu others have called him; by the Pre- sident whom he has supported, so often and so ably, for the Chiel bIagistracy of the eonnirY- He says. too. that one of the sections Is an English Botany Bay law, except that il Is much worse. This section. sir, whatever Il may be, is just nhd tAe Presidents Message re commended. Similar observations are applicable 10 tho remarks ot both the honorable gentlemen from North Caro- lima. Ii IS unnecessary 10 particularize those remarks. They were in tue same straia.
 Therefore, sir, let it be understood, let ii he known that the war which these gentlemen choose 10 wage, is waged against the measures of the ad miiiistration, against the President of their choice. The controversy las aris- en between him and them; and, in its progress, they will probably come to q distinct understanding.
 Mir. President, am not to be under stood as admitting that these charges agaiest the bill are just, or Chat they would be just if made against the mes sage. On the contrary, think ti'em wholly unjust. Not oue of thcin, ia my epinioF, caR he made good. think tie bih. or some sin&lar measure, had become indispensable. and that tic Pre- sidcit could not do oeIerw ise thai, re- commend if to the consideration of Congress. He was not al ilberiy to look on and be silent, while dangers threatened the Union, which existing laws were rot competent, in lis jadg- meHt, 10 avert.
 Mir. President, take this occasion 10 say, that l soFPorGthis measure as an independent member of the Senate, in the discharge of the dictates of m4 own IeonseIeGcc. am no mans leader; and OH tine other hand, follow 10 lead, but that of Public IjuIy, and the Star oi tie Constitution. believe the country is in considerable danger; be- lieye an unlawful combination threat ems the Union. believe the crisis calls for mild, temperate, forhearng, but intlcxlb}y firm executiouol the laws. And, under this conviction, l give hearty support to the Administration, in aIi measures which l deem to be fair, just and necessary. And in supporting these measures, l mean to take my fair share of responsibility; 10 support them frankly, without reflections On the past, and without mixing other topics in their discussion.
 Mir. President, l think ] understand the sentiment of the country, on this sabjcet. l tldtIl public opinion sets with ah irresistible force in favor of the Union, in favor of the measures recom- tneIaded by the President, and against the new doctrines which threaten the dissolution of the Union. think the people of the United States demand of us, who arc entrusted with the Govern ment, 10 maintain that Government; to be just, and fear not, 10 make ali suita- ble provisions for the executou of the laws, and 10 sustain the Union and inc Constitution against whatsoever may endanger them. For one, obey this public voice: comply with this demand of the people. ] support the Admins tratlon in measures which believe 10 be recessary; and, while pursuing this course, look untesitatingly, and with the utmost confidence, for the approba. ton of the country.
 Eneltenlent of JHr. Ca1houn.-Tfe correspondent of New York paper writes as follows:
 "Mr. Frclinghuysen commenced his speech in support of the bill, and in re- ply to Mir. Bibb but did not go beyond some general remarks on the question. These observations were, however, of highly interesting character. Mir. Cal honn was thrown by them intoaparox- ysm of excitement.
