HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, Aug. ", lS42
The bill OF Mr. Barnard was taken up, legnlz
ing the existing revenue laws.
Mr. Everett (Whig) sad, in the situation in
which the country was placed, he felt it his duty,
acting under n responsibility to his constituents
and to the whole country, to endeavor, II possible,
10 relieve the Government and the country from
It's present embarrassmentS. lie had felt in coE-
uon he believed with the whole country, the sen.
tlment which had first arisen in almost every mars
mind at the coming in of he veto, that it was their
duty to rerc-to go back to the People and take
their Judgment on the question but when he look

ferlng which was now pervadng every section Of
the country and at the situation of the Govern
men he felt it his duty, if possible, to relieve the
Government and the peuple from their present
enbarassments. In doing this il was not his in
Ienlion to separate The Government from the Peo-
pie. lie had no idea of passing bill merely for
the relief of the Government, unless he could OK
tend that relief to the People; his Object was TO
relieve both. II the Only question was TO be on

would not rslleve the People. They had made
ihrious attempts 10 ascertain what was the send

mad been unsuccessful he hoped, however, that
lurtiIer time and reflection would induce them to
come together on some proposition. Tho other
day he had offered resolution declaring TINT, IN
the present eXigcncy, he deemed 1t eNpedleht mat
