Mr. Adams’ paper, tlin “ Journal, * prin
ted at Washington, expresses strong uuubts
whether the course Mr. Ill nton lins pursued
during the late session ofCongrcss, will pro
cure him the renewed confidence of the Le
gislature of Missouri. What course? A
course of enlightened and useful labours.—
What doubts ? These doubts am but the
index to tho Editor’s wishes. The indepen
dent and honorable rarcei pursued by Mr
Renton, niiu-t endcarliim to the Legislature
of llio »Slnte lie has so nobly represented,
ns it has already slumped him, in the opin
ions of all honest nnd enlightened men, with
the cliaru< ter ofa philosophical and patri
otic statesman. The speech of Mr. Ben-
tom, on the Panama question, exhibits llie
most extensive and able views of the sub
ject. JI is knowledge is made up of such
clear reasoning, such useful facts, such irra-
sisiabln inferences, that on all similar sub
jects, rw *t speech might justly serve as n
text book of Diplomacy.
W ere the Legislature of Missouri lo fail
in returning Mr. Renton again and again
lo that National Senate to which his name
mid talents add such steady honor, they
would libel their own understandings, arid
deprive our Common Country of a source
of light which he,Tins only to lead her on
lo virtuous and just policy. Mr. Bkntok is
no common man ;tliu elevation ofhiHefnlr-

Mr Compere.—Al tho Jnte Baptist Gen
eral Convention in New York, “ resolu
tions were adopted expressive of llio entire
confidence of that body in Mr. Compere’s
coi redness of management and integrity of
motive, but at the same time censuring liiui
for interfering unnecessarily in the political
disturbances of the Creeks, and transferring
tho fiscal concerns of the Mission from lus
hands to those of the Rev. Deter Doty.”
The Convention stands adjourned to
meet in Philadelphia m 1620.
The following prenmhle nnd resolution
submitted by Mr. Branch,of North Caro
lina, some time since, in secret session, and
subsequently transferred to the Legislative
Journal for public deliberation, being under
consideration viz:
^ “ Whereas the President of the United
State", in lii«opening Message lo Congress,
asserts, “ that invitations had been accepted,
>nd that Ministers on the part of the Fniu*
States would he eoniniissioned to attend the
deliberations at Panama,” without submitting
snid n.-mina,ions to the Senate And where
as, in an Executive runinnn imth n of the 2Gih
■ »y of December, 132.'), although he submit.-
th nominations,he yetmaintamsthe right,pi* -
vi ’iisly announce^ in his opening message
that lie possesses an authority to make such
appointments ami to commission them without
the advice and consent of the Semin*. Ami
whereas a silent ncquirsee ic.i'on the pait of
this body may, at some future time. In* drawn
into dangerous precedent : Therefore.
“ TUsolved, 'That the President of the Uni
ted States ilocs not constitutionally possess ci-
the right or the power to appoint Am
adore or other public. Ministers, hut
with the nd'rc and consent of (he Senate,
pt wheit vacancies may happen *
cess.”
And Mr Branch having delivered his
sentiments in favor of the resolution—
Mr. RANDOLPH rose, nnd said: I risi
sir, for the purpose of making an apology
to tho gentleman from North Carolina, for
an unintentional word, [* never’] uttered,
involuntarily, whilst ho was speaking, al
though I won linppv to see that it caused
nny thing rather than embarrassment t
him. I rise also, for tho purpose* of expres
ing to that gentleman my hearty thanks for
having cnllud up bis motion, find for having
relieved the Senate from that embarrass
ment, under which wo have labored so long
that motidii was nailed to that table —
The unavoidable absence of tl»< gaiulo
from North Carolina prevented i's
being taken up nnd disposed of ; an J tho
subject was tlu * put out of tho roach,
even of the Committee of Foreign Atinir*^
nnd is therefore not embraced iu tlioir ra
tion And, whilst I mn tanking my ic-
knowlegcnirnts to the gentleman from
North Carolina, I will make one more, iu
which I believe sir, another, and not the
least member of this body, may participate
with me, as an almost equal sharer in tiiu
obligation The gentleman from North
Carolina lias Mooted his ship into action
with a maul incss und docisinn, a frankness
ami promptitude, a fearless intrepidity, that
scornsal 1 compromise with tho foe, the com
mon enemy oiovery true friend of his coun
try ; that will relieve, certainly, one, und 1
believe, more than one, of this body from
some part of the odium which lias hitherto
been borne almost exclusively by two. lie
foiribly remind' d me of thnt gallant man.
(wn« Do notour countryman by birth, sir?)
Hallowed, who ho gallantly took tbo loud
inthcSu ittm'rk, at the bnttlo of tho Nile
—the most brilliant and sublime naval con
quest—tho most important, whether in re
ference to iiselfor its consequences,that was
ever won by man ; when the brave but mi
fortunate Cullodon, the leading ship, got
aground; when Trowbridge, for tlin first
lime, performed an important but unwilling
service in marking, ad a beacon, the elian-
nol to the rest of the fleet. I nm glad toi
find that llie gentleman from North Caroli
na has spoken to this Mouse witJi the plain
ness that belongs to him, not only ns a Sou
thern man, but, emphatically ns a Plnuter;
it belongs to him as a slave holder; it be
longs to him os one who is not bound to
electioneer and to curry fuvorwitli the. dri
ver of his carriage, or the brusher of his
shoes, lest when he shall have driven Inin;
to llie polls, tho one may dismount from Ins
coach-box, or the other lay down ins shoe
brush, and annihilate the masters vote at
the next election • lost Ins servant may give
him warning Jiat he rimy no longer coined-,
cr him as It is “ help" arid go ns a spy into
the family of his enemy, if he uiiall have
ono, to tell, not only of what he may have
seen and hoard, but whnt lie never saw and
never heard, in the family of his mastor.—-
Master ! did 1 say ? No, sir, ** bis gcntltmun•'
This delator end champion ofun.v rsul • *f-
rago owns no master—be claims the into, a y
over you 1 thank the gontlomnn from
North Carolinu--mo8t sincerely und hearti
ly do 1 thank him. I trust that it will turn
out iu the end—whether our ad\ernaries be
boru to consume the fruits of the earth—
/cages consumerc nati--whether or not
they belong to the caterpillars of* the Trea
sury or of the Law ; that, of* us, it may be
truly said, ms numerus s uni us ; that our
name too is Legion ; for, sir, wo belong to
the enufo and the party of the people ; wo
do claim to belong to the majority of this
“ nation y' No, sir, I acknowl idge no na
tion of this Confederate Republic. For I,
too, dKcliiiu any master, save that ancient
Commonw ealth whoso feeble and unprofit
able servant l am. The President himself
has confessed that be does nut possess the
suffrage of the majority, or the confidence
enjoy ed by Ilia predecessors, lie is oven
desirous of a new trial. Ho shall have one,
and no thanks to him for it. God send him
a good deliverance from the majority; nnd
God send us, tho majority, a g. od deliver
ance from him.
Having thus, air, dishuithened myself of
some of the feelings that have beeu'excitod
by the gallant and fearless heating of the
gentleman from North Carolina, allow
me to go on and queation some of liis posi
tions.
One of them is tho durability of the Con
stitution. With him nnd with futher Raul
