The republic. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1849-1853, 1850-01-02

given US four Locofocos, three Wings,
one Free-Soiler, and Mr.. Morton Of Vir-
ginia. On the most unimportant commit
tees, with, perhaps, one or two eXcep-
tons, the minority of the House has ma
jority of the members.
We have heard good deal of talk
among Mr.. CoBB's friends about "moral
treason"-by which they have seen fit to
express the guilt of any representative of
the people who dared to say that his soul
was his own when it was claimed by Mr..
Polk. These serfs of the late Executive
required every man to vote as MIR. Polk
desired about the Mexican war--on the
pain o. being denounced for "moral trea-
son." What do they think of the crime
of ''moral' perjury And how remote
from the commission of this crime is the
man who mixes up the name of Heaven
with his promise of ''impartialty' in the
discharge of his duties, and then COM
mences those duties with the most gross
and palpable Justification of that promised
| We annex list of the committees made
