THE legislature of the (fate are still in session, and the eye of the public is a. wake to behold the events their delibera tions are to bring forth. ONE circumstance has prefepted it felf, in their proceedings, whiclf has oc casioned a diversity of opinion. AFTER the senate and house of re presentatives had exercised their exclusive constitutional province of electing a num ber of Rate officers; the persons chosen were declared non elecft, by a reconsidera tion of the min utes; in which a new elec tion was brought about. The pretexts for this extraordinary proceeding we learn, were firft, that his excellency had not con curred in the firft resolution for the meet ing of the two houses in the representa tive chamber; the fecond,becaufe the trea surer had lent James Sims a part of the Yazoo deposit. UPON the firft ground the public doubt: whether the governor had any thing to do with appointments which the con- Hitulion had exclusively veiled in the re presentatives of the people ? And upon the second whether, as the governor did not concuf in the resolve under which the last eleftion was made; the firft officers can be removed, and these doubts we pretend not to solve. THE election of judge M’Kean, to the office of governor of Pennsylvania, ha's been a fubje<ft of exultation to his friends, and we have more than once expreffied our hop; % that this event would prove generally beneficial,-—we are sorry how-" ever to observe a conduft in the governor cleft calculated to remove all favorable impressions, and exhibit him to the world anenemytohis country. to the “ republicans of PennfylVsFma,” ap pears to 113 one of the most Ihameful, and contemptible public papers we ever re colleft to have read ; in a spirit of bom haftic exultation at his own eleftion, he closes the daffies of those by whom he was opposed with “ all the expeftants of office from the President of the United States”— Thisthough we believe it to be untrue and Un just, difeovers filch a disposition to place the executive of Pennsylvania, and “at executive of the United States, at va fiance, as must loose the former, most of l hofe friends pf whose friendfiiip he ought lo be defircus—we believe could the fen tlme«ts of this answer have appeared be *°re the eleftion, M’Kean would have re- chief justice only.
