IN defence of the late Secretary Of Stale
. There is no law provided by the. Legisla
q ture, under the Constitution provision 0
!. Amendments, to direct the Secretary 0
: State or any other officer TO make pGb!ica
ton, the fault therefore lays in the Legisla
ture itself; but, besides that, such was tn
n awkardness Of the draft Of the resolution
c that there was no caption TO it, whereby
il could be distinguished from hundred oihe
q resolutions passed at tbs same session, an
it was overlooked by the clerks of the Sec
d retary's office. Although not required b
it law, that officer would have made the pull
o LEGATION, but for such awlwardness in Ii
: want of caption.
