Thr honorable member ffom Virginia Nj. Iy-
ler) finds out resemblance between tbs bill and
the Boston Port bill Sn il one OF these be lml
taltd from the ot'or, the mtauon IS the Pnsk
dents. Thu bill makes the Ptcsmcnt, he says,
sole Judge Of the Constitution. Docs he mean to
say that the President has recommended measure
which IS to make han sole judge Of the Constliu
ton The bill, he declares sacrifices every thing
to arbitrary power he Will lend no aid to l's pas
snge--he would rather " be dog, aud bay the
! moon, than such Roman" lie did not say a" the
Old Roman" YET the gentleman well knows, that
II any thing IS sacrificed 10 arbitrary po~ei, tins
| sacrifice has been demanded by the Oh Roman"
as he aud others have called him by the President
whom he has supported often and so ably, for
the Chief Ma2istracy Of the country lie saystoo,
| that one of the sections IS an English Botany Bay
law, except that II Is much worse. This section,
sir, whatever II may be, is just what the President ;
| Message recommended similar observations me
applicable 10 the remarks Of both the honorable gen
il,men from North Carolina. Il is not necessary
to parteulallze those remarks They were IN the
same strain.
Therefore, sir, LET it be understood lc; il be
known, that the war when these gentlemen choose
10 wnge is wogcd against the measure, ofthe adj
mnlstraton, against the President of then o"u
choice. The controyetsg has afsen between hlHl
