with true courage, chose the alternative Of strip

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,
FRlDAY. February ]
After the journal had been read !,

After the journal had been read,
Mr.. CHAMBERS, after some brief remarks on
the propriety of protecting the young officers OF our
Navy moved the consideration of the resolution Of
fered by Mr.. Naylor, on Monday last calling upon
the Secretary of the Navy for copies of certain pa
pers relating the charge preferred against Commo
dore Elliott by Charles E. Barton.
After some debate between Messrs Adams, Nay
lor and Ingham, the resolution was considered and
with slight modification, adopted.
Mr.. PETRIKEN asked leave to call up joint re-
solution submitted by him on a former day, uthori-
zing the distribution of the first and every succeed
ing volume of Clarke and Forces Documentary
History of the Revolution, to members of Congress.
Mr.. CAMBRELENG moved to amend the resolu-
ion by striking out the words and every succeed
ing volume" He did so with view of having a
different arrangement respecting the selection OF the
documents He thought their selection ought not to
be left the publishers at present. but that COM
Hittrr should be appointed Tor that purpose, and me
work, if required, published under the immediate
supervision of Congress.
Mr.. BIDDI.E thought the resolutions embraced
very important principle, and before giving his
vote, he wished further time to examine the matter
He, therefore, moved that for the present, the sub
ect on the table.
At the request Of Mr. THOMAS, the motion to
lay on the table was withdrawn.
Mr.. THOMAS then adverted to the great amount
of the appropriation required by the resolution near
ly half million, and maintained that the work
instead being given to individual members ought to
be deposited in the public Libraries of the country,
where the people as well as members of Congress
could have access to it. And, as the first volume
already printed could be of no use without the re-
mainder, he thought Congress ought to require them
10 be returned. He concluded, by moving reference
OF the resolution to Select Committee.
Mr. PETRIKEN thought it would be vain
task to endeavor to get back that portion of the first
volume already distributed He was surprised, too,
when he saw members complaining Of such APP
preparations now, when hitherto they had kept silent
on such matters
Several amendments were then made to the mo-
ton to refer, but the hour having expired without
disposng of the resolution the House passed to the
private order of the day. and took the bills on the
private calendar.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.


As soon as the journal was read,
Mr.. HAYNES asked leave to move that the

Mr. CAMBRELENGho hoped the gentleman would

Mr.. HAYNES waived his motion for the present
Mr.. EVERETT, on leave, reported, from the

Iecting the Secretary Of War to transmit to Con-
gress statement of the awards made by the COM
mssioners under the Choctaw treaty; which was
ordered to be engrossed for a third reading to-
morrow.
MIR. NAYLOR asked the consent of the House to
take up for consideration the resolution submitted
by him on Monday last, calling upon the Secretary
of the Navy for copies ofhe charges alleged against
Com. Elliot for certain conduct preferred by Mid
shipman Barton.
MIR. HAYNES said he must object to any in
terruption of the business properly before the House
Mr.. NAYLOR sincerely hoped the gentleman
would withdraw his objection, for 1t was an act OF
Justice to Com Elliott himself that this information
should be communicated to the country.
Mr.. HAYNES said the public business of the
country was certainly second to no private inquiry
and, therefore, he must persist in his objection.
Mr.. NAYLOR thereupon asked suspension OF
the rules; but the House refused.
Mr.. LINCOLN on leave, presented commmu'
nicaton from the Postmaster General 10 the Com
mittee on Public Buildings and Grounds, setting

| EXECUTIVE PATRoNAGE.-Mr. Wall, Chairman Of
the Committee on the Judiciary, on Thursday,
made long report to the Senate, in support of the
Presidents claims to unlimited power, and against
the proposed law to lessen the influence of OFFICE
over the elective right. As coming from Mr.. Wall,
who glorles in being federalist, such doctrines
are not surprising; but when he utters them as
the organ of party in the Senate, who profess to
be democrats" we are sickened with the exam
pie they present of almost total deprav,ty. The
report is in the worst style and spirit Of slang
whanging, elecioneering document; and the very
antipodal of the doctrines advocated by Benton,
Buchanan, Grundy, and Jackson, when the federal
patronage not half extensive it is at pre-
sent! We have never before witnessed such dis
gushing tergiversation-nor have we ever before
imagined it possible, that Senators of the United
States protesting to be governed consistently by honest
principle, could in such gross and fragrant man
ner give the lie to every profession they have here
tofore made. We may speak strongly, but 1t is
difficult to repress the feeling Of adherence, which
such conduct, in such men, inevitably exctes
We pray the editor of the Richmond Enquirer to
remember what he often repeats, viz. that the Exc
cutive power has increased is increasing and ought
to be diminished" and find, in his heart, if he can
any sympathy for such doctrines put forth by
this leading tederalis in the Senate Would he give
to the Executive carte blanche and permit him to
consolidate all power in his own hands,
Look, we pray, every man, even he who losks
charitaby upon the acts of the party in power at the
report of Mr.. BENTON, in lS36-at Mr.. BucHANAN's
and Mr. GRUNDY's speech-at JEFFERsoNs letter, to
Gov McKean-at JEFFERsoN's circular to officers
under him. and last, but not least, at the INAUGURAL
address of General ANDREW JACKSON.
They will find Mr.. Wallis labored, electioneering
document becoming the federalism he confesses; but
utterly adverse to Republican doctrines as they
have been understood and practised from l7s9 down
to the Inauguration of the present federal dynasty
