The Wigs. hoFereI, did not shrink from
ne ssk; bat they were willing that their
Judgment should be tempered with mercy
10 he accnfed. For this purpose. Mr..
Frsnris moved 70 amend The resolution for
espcIIing Mr.. Enneis. By Substituting one
simply 10 repnmand him; but The LOcos
opposed lhis amendment, and one Of llle
Wings voting with them because he
lhoughi the punishment TOO light the
amendmeai was moi carried. The only.
course den lefi fpr the Wings to pursue,
was 10 exPen him. which was according
l. done.
Mr. Emmett has no reason 20 complain.
Every indulgence was granted 10 him lhat
he could reasonably ask. Time was al
lowed him 10 prove his innocence, and
counsel. Of bis own choosing, were heard
81 The bar Of the Senate in his defence.
That die certificate presented BY him 10
lhe Senate on the FIRST day Of Tie session
was forgery, was so apparent that HE
VOC was unanimous ON that head; and he
was not ALE 10 separate himself from the
gull Of il. lflhe punishment yisi.sd up.
on him was TOO severe. he can blame on
" his own friends. who resisted the mild
er punishment that was proposed.
We sincerely hope that The consli,u-
enis Of Mr.. Emmett will have Too much
sell-resreci. and 100 much regard for Tie
honor Of tie state, 70 return him 20 The
Senate again. Take either horn Of the
dllemms.--ihat he was TOO ignorant 10
comprehend the guilt Of his act in present.
ing certificate that he knew was for
gerry, 81 that he conupdy did it,-and il
reflects but liiila credi; on the people Of
0nslow TO hare such Senator. Surely
they have better men Of the same politics
thai will serve them.
The Raleigh papers contain The details
in The investigation Of this case, but our
space enables us to give but brief sketch
il this number Of the Recorder. As il is
a remarkable case in the annals OF this
state, We may hereafter give some Of the
