SPLIT IN THE PENNSYLVANIA DELEGATION
Sept. 19.-This morning Col Hartley's sor
called on me with note and showed the CODY
OF q letter which the Colonel had written TO
Clymer and Fitzsimons. He called on them for
an adherence to their former tenor OF conduct
respecting the Susquehanns and plainly de-
clared that their detection now would be con-
sidered as a proof Of their insincerity from the
beginning | am unwilling there should be
any scbism among the Pennsylvania Repre-
sentatives. Perhaps this letter may lay the
foundation Of it. Perhaps 1t may have the
contrary effect. II is however. done without
the advice OF any person. and We are left to at
tend to the event. have wished much to have
seen Clymer and Fitzsimons for some days
past, / dropped distant hints OF this often
TO Mr.. Wynkoop. This had no effect; could
not Justify myself in sending for them. How
ever. know not II could have any influence
with them. and know that Wynkoop carries
faithfully every word which 1 say to them.
Dr. Franklin says tho world will do its own
business" / must let It do SO on this o.
casion. for my lame knees will not let me help
It. Mr. Wynkoop left the house. came home,
and went on party OF pleasure.
Had a note from Col. Hartley. The per-
manent residencel business Is put of until
Wednesday next on account Of the indisposi-
ton OF some OF the members The House by
Joint resolution with the Senate are to break
ND on Tuesday Appointing Wednesday tfor
tho permanent residence businessl seems like
the oblivion committee in the British Psrlia-
ment on the American petitions before the
Revolution. But we will see what will come Of
it. Note-Hartley was mistaken when he
wrote this note.
In the evening Mr.. Dalton Senator. Massa-
chusetts called to see me. Soon after Mr.. Nor
rls Senator. PENNSYLVANIA and Mr. Fitzsimons
Representative. Pennsylvania came In. Soon
after Mr.. Scott Representative Pennsylvania,
Mr.. Dalton went away Mr.. Scott said:
What shall we do with the residence? l
believe we must vote for it." don't
know" said Ftzsimons. If the condition
had only been that we should not prevent the
clearing of tho Susluehanna, | should not
have cared Scott sail: " In fact ii amounts
to no more now" II don't know" said FitZ-
simons. Mr.. Morris said abruptly: The con-
tract is broken; we were to have this thing free
of am condition. hav,. however. q letter from
Peters IN this subject. lie got out the letter
but did not read it. Mr. Scott was on his feet
and went away. The others soon followed.
When Mr. Morris talked Of tho contract being
broke | asked " Hav" any OF the Eastern
people given way? Have any OF them voted
against the >usQurhanna?" Mr.. Fitlsimons
said none. / can readily guess what Mr.. Nor
ris means by saying tho contract Is broken.
Need his vote be oXpecte!?

IRON what he said thar the effort would be to
