WHO ARK THE FRIENDS OF THE ROAD?
One Of the most impudent attempts which has
lately been perpetrated, is that Of some Of the
prints which support the Administration, to throw
the blame Of the loss of appropriation for the
continuation of the Cumberland Road, on the
Wing party in general, and on some individual
members Of that party in particular. The bill
lower House, where it was committed to a Com
mittee Of the Whole on The state Of the Union
Congress adjourned on Sunday. On the Thurs
day preceding, an attempt was made, in Commit
tee Of the Whole, to have the bill reported back
to the House, which proved failure. THIS vote
was considered, by friends and foes, a. decisive
Of the fate of the bill for this year. On Satur-
day evening, however, Mr.. Cambreleng moved
the House to go into Committee of the Whole on
the amendments Of the Senate to the general ap-
preparation bills. BY arrangement Of the friends
Of the road, Mr.. McKennon, o: Pennsylvania.
moved to amend Mr.. Cambreleng's motion bv ad-
ding the Cumberland Road bill; and, on this mo-
ton he called the yeas and nays. Here Mr..
Dromgoolr, supporter Of the Administration from
Virginia, moved the previous question on Mr.
Cambreleng's motion; the effect Of which would
be to cut off Mr.. McKennon's amendment. This
motion was decided by the occupant Of the Chair,
MIR. lngham, of Conn, (of the same politics) TO
be out Of order. But, after some alteration. he
reconsidered his decision, and pronounced the mo-
ton to be in order. The previous question was
then sustained, and Mr.. McKennon's amendment
cut off. Here, all hope Of carrying the measure,
so important to US, failed-and it was surrender
ed by its friends. Notwithstanding this, as for
lorn hope, on Sunday evening, Mr.. Rariden, Of
Indiana, made motion to go into Committee Of
the Whole on this bill, which also failed. Had
the House gone INFO Committee, there is no rea-
son to believe that the bill would then have been
reported back and passed, when the same mea-
sure had twice before failed.*

and which is opposed to it, we subjoin the vote
