Mr.. WHIPPLE's REPoRT.-In COM
pliance with our promise made last
week to a number Of our subscribers,
we publish in this number the Minority
Report of Mr.. Whipple, on the right Of
Petition. As piece Of composition
merely. it is in many respects strongly
and ably written, though its arguments,
in our humble estimation, as well as in
the estimation of very many persons
better qualified to judge Of its merits
than we pretend to be, are rather spe-
cious than otherwise. Touching tho
great question in discussion, the right
of petition, the result Of Mr.. W's
whole effort has been to mystify as we'll
as to envelope it in doubts and difficult
ties. Mr.. Clay himself, in his able
speech, which we published last week,
clearly and unequivocally admits what
Mr.. Whipple denies, viz that tho
right ofpettion is abridg edby Atherton's
resolutions. This, it must be admitted
is high authority-in fact we know Of
none higher. We think the report Of
Mr.. w. exceedingly exceptionablc,
particularly in that part of it where he,
in unmeasurcd and even fanatical terms,
there are fanatics we agree, on both
sides the abolition question, denounces
with great sehemence, large and
highly respectable portion Of the Wing
party, who are known az the friends Of
the abolition cause. The abolition
party in this Statc,-to say nothing Of
it in other States-is composed, like all
other parties, of men of various claims
to character, property and patriotism,
and we honestly believe would, in these
respects, suffer nothing in comparison
with either or any of the several par
ties of the day.
