THE CoUNTER-

To give a full view Of the controversy between
the People and the Execu,ive--the Commons and
the one MN Power, we insert Mr.. Glner's Report
on behalf of Preroga,ivc. State papers are priv.
legged to be dull-but this is little Of the dulles,
and the lamest. The author has evidently not got
used to his new vocation-that OF paliatng wrong
and exeusing arbitrary power. But he will learn
apace-if il be true reported, that the Favori:e
allows him the entire of the back door of the White
House. The first column or two is the most ridicu-
lous waste OF logic we have seen-being confined
10 the proof of what no denies, that il is the
constitutional duty of Congress to proceed to cor
slider the vetoed bill. They are not compelled TO
consider II IN a momen,--nor are they confined TO
any particular mode. They may proceed by COM
mltiec or Otherwise, as may best conduce to a calm
ana full consideration. At least such is the nterpre-
'aIon which common sense would give TO the Con.
stltu,ion But il the words Of the Constitution are
TO be construed rigidly, where does Mr. Gilmer get
his authority for discussing a vetoed bill ? The
words OF the Constitution arc proceed TO consider"
Discussion is not necessarily any part of eonsidrG-
ten. To conform TO the letter OF the Constitution
as soon as veto message is read, all the members
should shut their mouths and go to thinking or con-
siderng We do not see how any OF them without
violating the Constitution, could make a motion
even for the ayes and noes-or for adjournment.
The ayes and noes are required by the Constitution
but the taking Of them would disturb the eonsi-
dsring, which would infringe the organic law. The
whole matter lie involved in inextrcabe difficulty, il
you once get into the regions of abstraction.
As to the rest of the Report, what with the sly
HIS at Congress-it is a lame defence &C thu one
man power-as though the author fel, little
ashamed Of himself. lie has not been in the Loco
loco ranks long enough TO catch the true slang, so
as 10 be able to out for the largest liberty,
whilst he lauds the domination Of ONE MAN TO
the skies. This is task, which only an old FASH
ioned Federalisi, dipped in the vat cf modern Demo-
craey, could accomplish with grace

have made one for themselves-whieh We have not
seen. From the fact OF their making a separat.
Report, il is TO b. inferred that the Allies are not
entirely harmonous-or at least, are not disposed
to venture their fortunes in the same bark Posi-
bly, because MIR Gmer only limited high tory doc
trnes, Mr. lngersoll insisted on presenting Report
Of his own-which will bring us back to the Reyo.

ces'ary TO the imposition Of every tax, the power
has been used to control the whole administration.
