1.-THE COMMITTEE ARE REPORTING


Mr.. Profit then alluded to the charge that
Gen. Harrison is in the hands Of committee.
who answer all his letters, and prevent him from
expressing any new opinions on any Of the great
questions now before the public. Well, said
Mr.. p, we acknowledge that Gen. Harri on is
in the hands of committee. The charge is true.
And what is tina, committee Why, it il the
committee Of the whole People on the state Of
the Union. II is composed Of millions of free
men, who have charge Of the old hero Of Tippe-
canoe, and the interest Of the whole country |!
And they viii safely keep and truly report upon
these great interests. Sir said he, did You hear
a slight report Of branch Of that committee from
Connecticut? Did you hear the report Of ano-
ther branch of,hat committee from Rhode islands
Did you heara slight whisper from the committee
in Virginia Yes, said he, you hear these re-
ports and the friends Of the Administration
heard them with fear and tremblng They
stood in crowds around your post Office, waiting
the arrival Of the mails, with faces so long that
you could; put them through horse-collar!'

Of the offender, when he has no other means OF

ture OF Maryland who, in Nov, 1898, (ch. 81,

lhat II any person, committed for non payment
OF any penalty fine OF forfeiture, shall remain in phi

This act was continued in force in the coun-

Of the 9th Feb, 1901, and is now part Of the
law Of the land therein.

PROGRESS OF FEDERAL DEsPoTIsM.

Jacobinism has reached its height among the
they committed another fragrant outrage on
all decency, parliamentary laws, and on the
rights Of the minority. In the afternoon ses-
sion, when the State of Maine was called, for
resolutions, Mr. SMITH, from that State, started
up, and offered a resolution which his brother
Federal Loco-Foco, Mr.. ATHERToS, Of New
Hampshire, had, on Saturday, given notice that
he would offer-to change the standing rules Of
the House, SO as TO enable majority of the
members present to 60 into Committee at any
time, on any question.
II was entirely out Of order for Mr.. Smith to
move the resolution Of another member; but the
Federal Loco-focos who care not pin for rules
when they stand in the way Of their objects, de-
cided il was in order. Mr.. Smith moved the
previous question on the resolution in the same
breath with which he offered it and before the
resolution was even read! This was also
clearly out Of order. But the Federal Loco
focos made il in order by their votes. Mr.
Bell then demanded the question Of con-
sideration, and objected also to the consideration
at that time, according to the acknowledged
parliamentary rule, which requires a resolution
that gives rise to debate, to lie over one day
The Speaker sustained the position Of Mr.. Bell
but the Federal Loco-focos marched up in solie
column, and without blush, reversed hi
decision!
They then, by means Of the previous CUES
ton, adopted the resolution. They have thus
by the grossest violation Of all parliamentary law
and precedent, If NOT Of the Constitution, taket
to themselves the power Of doing whatever
they please at any time and Of subjecting the
minority to perfect despotism.

Another Tremendous Gathering o. Ten thousand

were present. with banners, badges, and mottos-thc

Nathanid MLean, Of Warren county, was called
to the chair with three Vice Presidents and two Sc

The Convention unanimously nominated JERE-
MIAH MORROW--the veteran Democrat Nor

for the succeeding two years in Congress, from that
district.
Thomas Cor,cin addressed the multitude, graphical

dangerous tendency ofits doctrines and the bghting
influence it has exercised the people, by parayz-
ing trade and commercially Gripping the energies OF
the people, and by disregardng the true and lcgiti-

FEDERALISM ALWAYS THE SAME

ALWAYS THE SAME.
The present loco foco federal party is identi-
cal in all its principles and feelings with the old
federal party Of '9S 1t has the same selfish,
arstocratc feeling for the few and the same
contemp, and heartless indifference for the mass
The Old federal saying used TO be, shat zoe
aerer should haze good times in this country
mal poor man ras compelled 10 mork all
day for a sleeps pluck and sleep under cart
al night"
Their great object and aim has always been
TO reduce the tcdges of the laboring classes
TO bring them down TO the degraded level OF
The working men in monarchical governments.
This hope they have never abandoned
whether expressed in the insolent, offensive Ian
guage Of '9S, which we have quoted above, or
urged in the insidious language Of Messrs Bu-
chanan and Walker, it is the same thing and
has the same object. Can the people be SO ig-
norant as to be deluded by the hollow and false
pretensons of the party in power2 No! The
federalists have always moderated the intelli-
gence Of the people. They did formerly, and
they do now. When the leopard changes his
spots then may they change their political feel
ngs But not till then!
