ment in your power, for they are doing a

We would further recommend to you the
propriety of calling township or neighbor-
hood meetings, for the purpose Of discussing
practical questions in relation to the business
Of education. 1t would very much promote
tho interest Of this important object, II those
who are capable Of expressing their thoughts
on paper, would exchange their views at
large in our country newspapers, and call
county conventions to exhibit written essays
and other addresses and discussions, in rela-
ton to a variety Of subjects and questions
which may very suitably occupy the attention
Of such meetings-and appoint delegates to
attend the next State Convention. These
meetings will be calculated to elicit talent
and excite general interest on the subjects
discussed. They will also enable the dele
gates to the next Convention to act more
advisedly, or with a more accurate knowl
edge Of what the wants and wishes Of the
whole people.

EXPUNGlNG RESOLUTION.

Just as the resolution to deface the journals
Of the Senate were about to be adopted, by
a minority majority, Mr.. Webster addressed
that body in the folio wing terms:
1.-THE debate having closed, and the ques-
ton being about to be taken, Mr.. WEBSTER
rose, and addressed the Senate as follows:
Mr.. President: Upon the truth and JUS
tice Of the original resolution Of the Senate,
and upon the authority ofthe Senate to pass
that resolution. had an opportunity to ex-
press my opinions at a subsequent period,
when the Presidents protest was before Us.
Those opinions remained altogether un-
changed.
And now, had the Constitution secured the
privilege ofen'erins PsorEsr on the jour-
nal, should not say one word on the occa-
sion; although If what is now proposed shall
be accomplished, know not what would
have been the value of such provision, how
ever formally or carefully il might have been
inserted in the body of that instrument.
But as there is no such consti tutional pri-
vilege, can only effect my purpose by :hus
addressing the Senate; and ! rise, therefore
to make that PROTEST in this manner, in
the face of the Senate, and in the face Of the
country, which cannot present in any 9th

behalf of my colleague; We both speak AZ Sen

We deny that Senators from other States
have any power or authority to expunge any
vote or votes which we have given here, and
which we have recorded, agreeable to the ex-
press provisions Of the Constitution.
We have high personal interest, and the
State whose representatives we are, has also
a high interest in the entire preservation of
every part and parcel Of the record Of our
conduct, as members of the Senate.
This record TIE Constitution solemnIy de-
clares shall be Kept; but the resolution before
the Senate declares that shis record shall be
expunged.

appears to Us, the degrading mockery Of
