Mr. Foote declared his determination yesterday not to
press his resolution Immediately upon the Senate in the
face Of the debate We respect his forbeaance, whilst
cannot but sympathze with his anxiety to refer the
whole question to select committee. Yet we cannot
sympathze with those who throwing cold water
upon the scheme, by declaring that they have little or
hopes OF its success We must be excused for saying
that this is not the spirit in which such important
proposition should be met We have taken some pains
10 ascertain the sentiment in the House Of Representa-

Of the whole controversy being fairly adjusted

proposition be urged and no new issues be made Of
