The Glorieus f:ighth.

In another column wilt b found the
proceedings Of a meeting held on the 9Th
inst, to commemorate THO day on which
the vensrated Jackson, with the brave
little band Of soldiers under his command,
achieved his brilliant and never to be for
gotten victory over tbs issoaent British
red eoats-a day held sacred to our coun-
try, sacred TO liberty, and mere especially
sacred TO the friends Of those great ard
beni6cent principles Of equal rights and
constitutional liberty, Of which he was,
during his life, the most eminent champion
that ever lived.
The resolutions drawn by Gen. V. p.
Van AsrwE ar, like every other produc-
ton Of that devoted and jealous advocate
Of the cause, breath the pure spirit Of
democracy. They speak truly the senti-
ments Of large majority Of our people,
and upon the subject Of the Mexican war,
in particular, they will fpd q cordial re.
sponse in the bosoms Of nine tenths Of our
citizens. We bespeak for them an attsn-
tive perusal from every one Of our readers.
Il il needless to say that they were re-
ceived and responded to BY the audience
with such enthusiasm ~ to show that they
felt and appre ciated the sentiments which
they contsin. Our space will not now
permit Of our speaking oi these resolutions
in detail, ~ they deserve; but we intend
70 continue them in next weeks paper,
that we may have an OPPORTUNITY Of doing

Remarks OF Ms. LcmngWeil
On the right Of The Minority to hare the
ADORE protest placed upon the journal.
Mr.. SPEAKER.
had not intended to participate in
this debate, and ! must confess that it is
humilia.ing in the extreme, to be called
upon to reply to gentlemen ir defence Of
q right guaranteed aud held sacred by the
Consti,u,ion--the right Of any member
to dissent from or protest against any act
or resolution which he may consider in.
furious te the public or to an individual,
and to have his reasons for such dissent
entered upon the journal" II is indeed
hnmiliating reflection to a freeman and
the Representative Of a free and severe ign
people, that he cannot be secure in his
constitutional rights, when So clearly de-
fined as is the one now claimed by the
minority of this House, without rising in
his place to make speech in defence Of
those rights.
Sir, a freeman should scorn TO enter in
to discussion upon this question. l, is a
foul a-persion upon the character of our
free institutions, the bare admission that
any argument is called for to sustain the
right which we have assericd--a base Ii
bel upon the character Of our people for
intelligence, TO suppose that any argument
is necessary in support Of the position
which we occupy. Holding this view,
Sir, fully impressed with sense Of my
obligations to the people Of the State, the
charter OF whose liberties We have all
sworn to defend, and indignant at the
high handed and gIaring attempt at usur-
patton on the part OF the majority. should
have much preferred to have remained ST.
lent in my seat. Bnt, Sir, the remark o.
gentlemen on the other side, demand re.
ply, especially from those whose names
are affixed TO that protest.
Il would look well for gentlemen who's.
capacity is SO large, and whose powers o
perception are so quick, when they de-
nounce statements upon the face Of tina
instrument to be unqualiiiedly false, t.
point them out, and perhaps they nigh
be satisfactorily explained. If they arr
SO glaringly false, il was but the work o
a monent to note them, so tina, we coult
reply to the accusation. But 10 the,
know too well their truth! My name
Sir, appears among the rest to that pro
test, and hurl the accusation back to III,
sscuree from whence it came, as base an
