Government The appropriate sphere Of the Execu-
tive invaded by H. and its constitutional functions
reduced TO passive condition All It's plans
Of negotiation. IL il had any, were, for the time be-
ing, broken up, and choice was lei. but TO submit
to that which the premature action Of one
branch Of Congress had forced upon Il.
g. The destiny Of the nation, all for the worse-it
could be for The bettermght be changed by that
act 1t might precpitate US into war; which IN the
outset, would be disastrous, for want of prepare
ton.
0. And lastly, as a party movement there is too
much reason to fear, that the design Of t.ose, who
were compelled by defeat in the field Of the elective
franchise TO resign The rens of Government, to
compromit the succeeding administration to inc
vitabe course, and force upon them sudden and in
slant hosttes with formidable power, without mo-
ncy without preparation, and under the greatest pos
sble electromagnetic doom them to position from
which scarcely any thing less than miracle of wis
dom and energy could rescue them. And this want
of preparation the effect Of the NAL administration of
those who contrved the plan! The votes recorded
against the publication Of this report show clearly,
that such the apprehension They, who, in
twenty days, were to have all the responsibilities Of
Government devolyed upon them who must meet
those exigencies and make their way through them,
or perish in the struggle, and whose wishes alone
ought have been consulted in such measure,
not regarded The majority in the House were
minority in the country and yet able, by single act,
force the country into war; the responsibilities
and conduct of which would fall upon Others and the
consequences Of which could not be foreseen.
On the whole this Report Of the most
traordinary Stale papers put forth in this
try, any other, and can be accounted for only by
that kind Of misunderstanding propensity, which seems
to have characterized set of disappointed men,
who since they themselves not TO be permitted
any longer TO manage public affairs, seemed resolved
that nobody else should be able to manage them ex-
cept in hot water, hot fghta most amabe patriot
ism, surely. We do not notice it now, however, a
subject Of soicitude-as think the effect of it is
past-but only show how perfectly reckless these
were, in exposing us TO war, in such state Of
the national detences they about to leave be-
hind them, with empty Treasury, public credit
greatly impaired by their means, ruined currency
and people impoverished by the cause, refusing
to the last all appropriations necessary encounter
even the first stage Of such exigency which, by
their mprudence, liable to burst upon beioe it
would be possible to call Congress together

some difference Of opinion between the
Commodore and the Captain, as to who

PEDLERS

A petition similar to the following, is
now being circulated in this county for
signarures:-Ohio Repository
To tie General Assembly of Ohio:
Your petitioners, citizens ofthe coun.
ty Of Coiumbiana. humbIy complaining,
showe,h that there is at this time, an
unusually large portion Of community
engaged in the avocalion Of buying and
bringing into The STATE. foreign goods,
wares, and merchandiza, and disposing
OF the same at retail, clear Of any tax
whatever. from the tact that the present
laws Of OHIO, regulating The licensing
Of pedlcrs, does not include thuse who
curry the goods themselves or pack them
on horses. Your petitioners, therefore,
consider thai great injustice is done by
this class Of community TO the enter
prising merchants Of our state, who add
much 10 us growth and prosperity, and
who to a consldera extent, are COM
PEELED to carry on their mercantile oPe
ralions by buying and exchanging the
products Of our state for goods of all de.
scriplions and frequently for those of a
heavy carriage, upon which there Is
much freight and light profits Where.
as pedlers mostly or altogether deal in
foreign goods Of light nature and fine
quality, of lille or no real intrinsic
value 10 The prosperity Of our state, and
upon which there is little freight and
heavy profits, and for which they re-
ceivs cash only. This, in the opinion
of your petitioners. give the peGIing
community very decided, and also an
unfair advantage over the settled mer
chants and good citizens Of the state.
Your petitioners therefore pray that
your honorable body will in your wis.
dom, rightly appreciate the interests oI
the settled citizens of your own stale
that you will follow the example OF our
sister states, and by special act of your
honorable body, prohibit all unlicensed
pedIers selling or dsposing Of goods
wares, and merchandise within the state
Of Ohio, and your petitioners as in duty
bound will ever pray.
+ there is not law already enacted
touching this subject, legislative action
upon this matter, is certainly greatly
needed, and should not be delayed i
