Mr. President, we are government Of divided
powers-legislativs executive, and judicial-and
no one department has right to assume that an.
other department will not do its duty, and there
upon assume those duties itself, or do something
that il ought not to do, on the supposition that
the other departments will do nothing Such as
sumptions and interferences are the bane of all
government, and the excuse for much wrong.
We have seen how mistaken II was to assume
such thing Of the late Presiient-it was to sup
pose that he would not do his duty In maintain.

that superstition our excuse for giving her away

position Of his SUCCESSOR, but will not suppose
one way or the other. ] rest on the principle Of
parliamentary law and decorum, and will not sup
pose, or presume, . delinquency Of duty on

The national era. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1847-1860, 1850-08-01

Mr.. President, there is something overriding
in the affairs of men, which, in the end, brings
out things right, and establishes the dominion of
truth and Justice; and never was this overruling
superintendent more visible than now. Here
are measures Of the most discordant kind clapped
together in one BILL in violation Of all parliament
airy law, and to the ruin of all fair legislation,
In order to force some measures to carry others.
Ii is the most fragrant case of parliamentary inn
propriety which the history of our legislation has
ever presented; and, to rebuke and crush il,
here is the highest proof its enormity which
the wisdom Of man could have devised. Votes
are nearly balanced on this floor, for or against
this 6nglomerate bill. There are two Texas
votes on this floor, and they count four--two Off
and two on--and every one knows that these votes
will decide the fate of the BILL and that they them
selves will be decided by the amount of money
to be voted to Texas. Sir, touch point which
is still ahead and which | will not develop now
When we come to the filling up of that mysteri-
blank 20 carefully guarded, may be able to dem
onstrate that the effect of this conglomeration of
bills, and that reservation Of blank, to be filed at
thelast moment is to open auction upon the floor
Of the Senate, for the votes which are TO carry
through the omnibus bill, with all its multifarious
and Heterogeneous contents. The filling Of the
blank may develop the fact, that the admission Of
California, and the establishment Of Governments
for two Territories, may depend upon the amount
Of money to be paid to Texas; and, II it does will
present the highest evidence Of the h,grant enor-
nifty Of lacking iucongruous bills together which
the history Of American or British legislation has
ever exhibited The bill iscaught fagranis dsliao--
taken In the fact-sezed by the throat, and held
up TO public view-(here Mr.. B. grappled bill,
and held it up)-in the very act Of perpetrating
its crime--in the very act of auctioneering for
votes to pass itself seize 1t in the act, and hold
