This gentleman il seems cannot vote to c1punge any
thing from the journal of the Senate but is willing 10
,cind If eypunging is 10 be done, merely by drawing
lines round the entry and writing the words Erpnhgcd
by order Of the Senate, The same, should like TO
know any good for preferrng the word rcStind
Is it the ground, that this expunging would be d de-
strucon Of the Journal lfso the position false both
in fact md in principle No maintain that jour.
nal is destroyed, which in ta1t Is not and, every word
and letter Of which, is preserved and not oteate
The word rescind would destroy the moral farce OF the
resolution of the Senate far the President Is con-
cerned But that is not now exactly the question: En-
PURGATION is the question. The resolution was put
upon the Journal by an usurped power. 1t the act
Of steal force merely. Neither the Constitution nor
the usages ftc Senate gave any authority Tor It, IL as
scrS what false IN tact against the PRESIDENT OIL INC u
Sntes-impu,cs to him crime-and is, therefore, scan.
da And is this scandal 10 be perpetuaed asa sacred
TRUTH Is the journal to bear, through all time, this pol
luton, ors it to bc ccansed: it is not the character
Of the President that is stake in the question, for the
Senate has found itself incapable of staining tiat but

a,ive and judicial assembly. Has not all and every CT
tizen right to demand this expursaton for the charac
ter of the Senate and the country? Have not the peo
pe of this Nation declared with loud voice that
The resolution Of the Senate wlul, deliberate
and false; and that it passed with intent to de.
fame and destroy the character o! the President and
of his friends who supported his measures: That 1t
they had been believed, and the character of the
President and his friends destroyed according 10 the de-
sign Of those who passed it, tine Bank Of the United
States would have been rechartered and the LIBERTIES
OF THE PEOPLE Frustrated 10 its wicked and ambitious
purposes! And can it be possible that representative
of brunswick can be found fighting with those who have
struggled bring upon our happy country such dread
fu consequences: ftherc he Republican whose mind
has not been satisfied with e1punging under the willy
and sophs,ca arguments Of the Wings, will he not ra-
Their give example of his patriotism by reslgnng his
seat than by thwartng this great conservative easure
at least will he not take that he does not nlsre-
present his constituents AN OBSERVER.
