against the aferemr-ntionefl proceedings of'
Ih' Senate, as author’zed hy the constitu
tion: contrary to its spirit and to several <»f its
express provisions; subversive of that distribu
tion of the powers of government which it has
ordained and established; destructive of the
checks and safe-guards bv which those pow- ;
era were intended, on the one hand, to be con- ,
trolled, and on 'he other to be protected; and j
calculated bv their immediate and collateral ,
effects, by their character and tendency to
concentrate in the hands of a body not directly
ainenable to the People, a degree of influence
nnd power dangerous to their liberties, and fa
tal to the constitution of their choice.
The resolution of the Senate contains an
imputation upon my private as well as my
public character; and as it must stand forever
on their journals I cannot close this substi '
tide for that defence which I have not ,
been allowed to present in the ordinary form, |
without remarking, that I have lived in vain, 1
if it be necessary to enter into a formal vindi
cation of my character and purposes from such
an imputation. In vain do I bear upon my
person, enduring memorials of that contest in
which American liberty was purchased—in
vain have I since periled properly, fame, and
life; in defence of the rights and privileges so
dearlv bought—in vain am I now, without a
personal aspiration, or the hope of individual
advantage, encountering responsibilities and ,
dangers, from which, by mere inactivity in re- j
Nation to a single point, I might have been ex- j
ernp'; if any serious doubts can be entertained
as to the purity of my purposes & motives-. If
I had been ambitious, I should have sought
an alliance with that powerful institution,
which evert now aspires to no divided empire. *
Iff had been venal, I should have sold my-k
self to its designs—had I preferred personal
Comfort and official ease to the performance of
my arduous duty, I should have ceased to mo
lest it. In the history of conquerors and us
urpations, never, in the fire of youth, nor in
the vigor of monhood, could I find an atlrac- ’
tinn to lure me from the path of duty; and f
now, I shall scarcely find an inducement to 1
commcm e’their career of ambition, when gray
hairsand a decaying frame, instead of inviting t
to foil and battle, call me to the contemplation <
of other worlds, w here conquerors cease to (
be honored, and usurpers expiate tjheir crimes. ,
The enlv ambition I can feel, is to a< quit
my u elf to Him to whom I must soon render
an account of my stewardship, to serve my '
fellow-men, and live repspected and honored
in the history of mv country. No; the nmbi- ,
(ion which leads me on, is an anxious desire
and a fixed determination, to return to tho
people, unimpaired, the sacred trust they have
confided to my charge—to heal the wounds of *
the constitution and preserve it from further
violation; to persuade my countrymen, so tar
ns I may, that it is not in a splendid Govern
ment, supported by powerful monopolies and 1
arixtocratical establishment*, that they wdl
find happiness, or their liberties protection;
Hut in a plain system, void of pomp—protect
ing nil, and granting favors to none—dtspens- (
ing its lilcssiogs like tho dews of Heaven, mi
seen and tinfoil. save in the freshness and
brnuty they contribute to produce. It is such
a Government that the genius of our People <
requires—such an one only under which our t
States may remain for ages io come, united,
prosperous, anti tree. It the Almighty Being
who ht»* hitherto sustained and protected me, l
will but vouc’eiafe to rjuike my feeble powers
instrumental to such a result, I shall anticipate 1
with pleasure the place to be assigned me in
tho historv of my country, and die contented
with tho belief, that I have contributed, in
some small degree, to incuu-c the value and
prolong the duration, of Liberty.
T«» end that the resolution of iho Senate
tuny tint be hcreaf'er drawn into precedent,
w'ith the authority of silent acquiescence on
the part of the Eioctilivc Department; and to
the end, also, that my motives and views in
the Executive proceedings denounced in that
resolution, may bn known to mv fellow-citi
zens, to the world, and tn al! posterity, I re
spectf.ill request that this Message & Protest
may be entered at length on tho Journals of
the Senate.

perceive that ootwithslnndiiyj 'he pendency of
the question of the constitutionality <»l the tost

dier General of this Rrigudo has issued Ins '
order, directing the new oath of allegiance Io I
be taken by nil Field Officers elect, on or.
before the Hth May, under pain <»l forfeiture
of their commissions. It was to have been
hoped that, m due respect to the Judiciary and
to avoid unnece*aaxy irritation, the enforce
nirnt ot thus odious law would have been sus
pended, nt h ast until the litigation now tn pro
gress should be brought ton termination. —
Those in power have however, deemed it
proper tn pursue a different course, and it
must be promptly met. It i- necessary, there
fore that the litigation »»f this matter should be
universal on the part of the Unionists through
out the Sta’e. N® ’‘ me ,n ,M ‘ I 0 ”’’ Eel<>re

menced. Let union officers elect, in every
pan of the State, take before a magistrate, and
tender in wuiing to tho ( omtnisstoning officer,
the oath of office in tbc ( onstitution.
and demand ’heir commissions. Upon the re
fusal <»f their commission*, let them immedi
ately apply for writ* «f Mandamus against the
Commissioning officer t<» compel tho delivery
of commissions, in conformity with the voice
of the people; and let them be readv to use. H

Wo promised our readers in the prospectus of this
paper, to pnbh-h a series of essays on the subject of the
Geological situation of this country, and its Mineral
qualities, by persons who are investigating the subject.
We nre informed by the gentlemen on whom wo de
pend, that they are collecting the inalcrials and facts,
necessary for such publication, as speedily as the na
ture of the case will admit, and that the first essay
will probably ap| ear in about a month. We are in
formed by those gentlemen, that they are collecting
al! tho facts that lie if their pow er respecting the Mine
rals of other Couuliies, as well as their Geological struc
ture, and for that purpose, have opened a communica
tion with some Literary Societies in F.u’ope, who are
extending their enqumes to the four corners of the
earth, in search ofknovvledge on the subject of the ma
teria! world. This country affords the mean* of con
tributing much to li'c ary institutions on that particu
lar subject, and we hope that men who are fond of sci
ence, will take an interest in this matter, and while
they are aiding thecause of knowledge, they have the
fair prospect of accumulating a fortune. He have dai
ly evidences of the immenst wealth con tai ted in the
! bowels of the earth ot tins country.. Since our last
note o' (he subject of the mines, the prospects
! still conti> tie be filtering. The Deposits are
yielding excellent profits to the op* ra'ors. and the
' op- ration on the vein in this neighborhood, is daily
j yielding large quantifies of Gold, and hold out
I strong inducements to our'•itizens. to turn their
attention to that mode of Aiming.
