TBE SENATE AND THE PREsiDENT.-The sound
ness of the following remarks from the National
Gazette will, we doubt not be readily acknow-
lodged by all parties
,'It is not to be plausibly denied that the Pre-
sident has committed an abuse of his mere con-
stitutona power and decorum towards a
coordinate authority, in nominating to the
Senate for high offices, men whom that DO
Nv had rejected on grounds remaining unal-
tered and some referring to the honor and sell
respect OF the majority. The constitution in
tends that the Senate should exercise an eqaal
power and full discretion in dealing with
the Presidents nomination. An attempt 10 force
upon them personal favorites whom they have
pronounced inadmissi5le for what reason soeV'
err, or rejected men merely because they have
been rejected, is every way irregular, and open
TO severe censure. Surprising the Senate 10
have acted from insufficient or Improper mo-
uves vet Difference would be due to their CON
stitutional privilege, and 10 the design OF the
constitution that the public functionaries should
be acceptable to both branches ofthe appointing
poEer-their joint& voluntary choice. As the Sc
nate has passed the great plurality OF the Presi-
dents nomnatons-whch have always been oil
his own party,-and as the President could
without difficulty find among his adherents 9th
tiers than the rejected equally fit and ready for
office, no motive for repeating nominations can
be truly assigned besides his determine ton 10
carry the men of his first choice, or the men
specially obnoxious to the Senate, and his desire
and design of involving that body in selt-con-
tradction and virtual acknowledgement OF
previous wrong.
