Yet do not see but that follows from the gentle
mans doctrine; for if the House has no power to
receive propositions to amend the Constitution, It
might it seems to me, prohibit every one of its
members from presenting amy.
stance, that he had not said that Congress might
not receive petitions for the amendment of the
Constitution.
Mr.. ADAMS. now understand the gentle
man as expressly disclaiming what yesterday
understood him as distinctly affirming. ] hope
now that the gentleman will not vote to receive
any petitions the prayer of which is for an amend
ment Of the Constitution, on the ground that the
petition is violation of the Constitution.
Mr.. A., in conclusion, said, have already
trespassed long on the patience OF the House,
and will at present say no more; unless 1t be
to say, that, although | am not in the habit OF
making broad and unqualified professions Of at
tachment to the Union, am, nevertheless, de-
voted to the Union and devoted to the Constiu-
ton. My whole life hitherto has been devoted
to the support of both, and all my remaining
| days upon earth, which in the course of nature
can be but few, shall be in the same manner
dedicated to support and to sustain both the
Union and the Constitution. But do not, there
fore, pledge myself not to present petitions either
of my own or of my States, to amend the Con-
stitution. That is within the power of the
House; but it is not within the power of this
| House to refuse to receive a petition to amend
| the Constitution in any Gifts parts.

TWADDLE.

Some Of the letter writers who furnish the
news Of this city to their respective journals,
make up their letters Of the verrest twaddle and
gossip that can be imagined To read their
eplstles, one would suppose they were in the Sc
crets Of every body, and know what the Execu-
tive and the Senate would do, long before they
themselves know, or have given the subject a
thought.
There is no reliance whatever to be placed
upon such letters indeed the writer's are young
and inexperienced, easily stuffed, credulous, and
will swallow anything told them as secret, but
would die if they could not be delivered Of it
again in an hour. The correspondents of the
New York Evening Post and Of the Baltimore
Patriot are among those to whom we refer
Such writers throw discredit upon others whose
statements are to be relied on

WINGS AND REPUBLICANS.

w
The Spectator of Wednesday evening contains
an exhortation to " the Republican portion OF the
Democratic party to hold fast to their princi-
ples," and, whatever position they assume, not
TO unite with the Wings We do not give the
precise words of the editor, but the substance
and meaning of what he says. We do not no.
ice the article to complain of it, or object to it :
far otherwise. We think the true course is
pointed out, and the right ground taken. The
editor knows that the Free Trade men and the
Tariff men cannot act harmoniously together
that the moment they attempt to legislate, that
moment they must differ, and therefore he says,
" the true course is, to bear as long possible
with our party, consistently with our principles.
These we can never abandon" Now, although
we differ with the Republican portion of the
Democratic party" as widely as light and dark
ness differ from each other, yet as that difference
is upon principles, we respect them, and differ
only as gentlemen entertaining different views
upon important subjects. We respect them be-
cause they adhere to their principles, and show
their sincerity by their preference for them over
office and power. They sustain them at no
small sacrifice but in thus sustaining them, and
in refusing to coalesce with others by a COM
promise of them, they command the respect of
all who can appreciate such honesty, fidelity,
and frmness.
We must do "the Republican portion of the
Democratic party" the justice 10 say that they
| are above demagoguing. They are unskilled in
the arts Of the intriguing political taccian, who,
while they are thinking how to carry out and
give ascendancy to their principles, is secretly
and arfully pulling the wires, and, by argu-
ments, temptations, threats, and coaxings, used
as occasion and different individuals upon whom
he is operating require, is forming his compact
phalanx with which to obtain poaoer and spoas.
We claim for the Wings the same honorable
motives Of action we award to 'the Republican
portion Of the Democratic party"-a desire to
establish those principles, and to carry into effect
those measures, which they deem esseltial to the
prosperity Of the country. Both can trust each
other, because there is no desire to deceive
they both show their hand, and deal frankly and
honestly. They are antagonists, but antagonists
upon fair and honorable grounds, and resort to
no other than fair and honorable means to sus-
tain their principles.

GEORGIA.

The Georgia House Of Representatives have
passed bill, by vote Of 1877 to Sc, districting
the State for the election of members of Con-
gress. The bill is substitute for one pass
ed by the Senate, and only requires the concur
renee of that body, and the signature of the Gov
ernor, to become law.
The correspondent Of the Savannah Republi-
can says of it, that if we take the election of
1S41, between Dawson and Mcdonald, as a critic
rlon, in will give the Democrats five Representa-
tives, and the Wings three. But according to
the result of 1843, the Wings will have five, and
the Democrats three"
What can be more fair, and how different this
from the infamous gerrymandering of North Ca
rolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, and
Maine, by the Locofocos If they had any SEN
sibility they would be ashamed Of themselves in
these States; but they glory in their shame

MR.. ADAMS SPEECH, AND THE PROTEST

MR.. ADAMS SPEECH, AND THE PROTEST.
We give up nearly the whole of our paper to-
day to Mr.. Adams Speech and the Protest of the
Wing members of the House of Representatives
against the admission of persons as members
elected not in accordance with the law of the land,
but in direct, and obstinate violation Of it,
In connection with what took place in the
House OF Representatives on Thursday, the ces-
saton, namely, Of hostilites on the part of por-
ton at least of those who have heretofore main
| tanned them, against The right Of petition, we
look upon Mr.. Adams speech as one of the most,
if not the most important that has been, or is like
ly to be, delivered in Congress this session. We
look upon it as likely to do more great good in
allaying the bitter feelings existing between GER
tain portions of our citizens towards each other,
and in arresting what one portion Justly considers
| the interference Of the other.
The Globe of Friday, and the Spectator of
Saturday, see imminent danger to the South in
the virtual breaking down Of the (to the north
odious) twenty first (now 23d) Rule We think
| their apprehensons groundless. We believe the
South will now be in far less danger of inter-
ference than they were before this rule was
virtually abolished. Mr.. Beardsley was correct
when he said that g the true mode of preserving
peace and harmony in the House and to ouell the
| abolition excitement throughout the country was
to receive the petitions offered, and to refer them
to committee constituted of gentlemen the most
favorable in the House to the abolition of slavery.
and on them let the practical responsibility rest
OF dsposing OF the question. They would find it
fearful responsibility and load they could not
bear" He added an important truth also, to wit,
that, Gas long as gentlemen refused to do this,
they would be pressed and pent in by the doctrine
of the right of petition, which might be, and was
used with grea, effect against tliem.''
The effect of the refusal to receive petitions
has been to identify thousands of persons with
abohtlonsts who were not abolltionists but only
acted with them in sustaining what they believe
to be an inherent, inaienable right of The people
Grant this right and it is all they ask. They are
as ready to oppose the designs of the aboltonists
as Southern men themselves. Give the stream
Tot petItions) passage and it will become power
less obstruct it and it will accumulate as it has
accumulated, till it will by its gathered and pent
up waters, burst and sweep away all distractions
and perhaps do great injury. The South need
entertain no fear from what has transpired. Mr.
Adams has put himself right before the nation on
the subjects Of abolition and the right of petition
and can no longer be misunderstood. We call
upon all to read his speech
