j formiiy with puli'i.-* exnoetation,
I without trunsaoting ay legislative

Wrd*e ditpnspd to let the p eteoded
friends of the people have their full
•baro of debate, try every measu;e,
venture upon every experiment,
touoh every spring, fully •>„ fi 1-„t
that an adjournment would lake
pla e, without violating the saorf
Ity of old and approved laws, aod
wittinut dividi -g the power, and
impairing the just influence, of the
state.
After raa'iy resolutions, amend
ments. substitutes, and m uions,
the touchstone was brought forward
in die full owing shape, as iatr du
ced by VI f, Speu*er.
Hesolvtd, As the sense of this
house, that no unexpected incident
or unforeseen exigence which requi
red immediate legislation, and for
which i* was the design of the n;m
*iirutio>to provide, in granting to
the excL'iitive the pewar of oonve
ni e Mia legjsla ure, at times provi
ded for by aly geueral laws of the
state, has transpired since the re
went Ailj Mirumeut of tlie legislature;
and therefore that the late prorla
mati nos the governor, convening
the legisUtu e. was an indisoreet ex
ercise of the executive prerogative
If die above resolution, reducing
the Governor, was adopted, then
•II legislation ceased. Nothing was
left u idooe bv the Governor, and

and sli icdy, a“tl the following shews

cal exp*e-si ni, Mr. tVlieaton push
ed his point in attempting to subs'i-
another resolution for that of
fered hy Vlr Spencer, whi h was
negAi ved by eighty one votes! !
Ii he assembly inu n Wi.'.nth,
excitement, and intemperate lats
gii ige prevailed. The opposition
was bold, daring, and abusive. They
attempted io prostrate ail rules ad
orders of the bouse; bul a li al
blow was given to their cause bv a
sprerb from M**. Pell, of D.i chess,
their prineipa and most zealous
leader. Mr. Pel! w r as betrayed in
to most unwarrantable expressions
and indecorous observations. ?!e
raised ihe veil and showed us these
patriotic “people’s men” in their o
t igina! colours. He insinuated that
the opponents to the bill deserved
to be tarred and feathered, fie a
bused Mr. Van Buren, Judge Skin
ner, and other distinguished repub
, Beans, to an extent as to arouse the
feelings \ indignation of the house,
and the vote of 81 against VVheatoQ's
resolutions, showed the feeiiogs and
opinions of the assembly.
The senate is truly a great body;
no excitement—-no violence of de
bate—not a high word; each mem
ber did his. duty iu proteotiog the
state and he constitution like a

The New I ariff
Speaking *>f the difficulty said to
have been experienced in ascertain
ing smite of the Du.ics c ider the
new Tariff, ihe Toiiadelphia Ga
zeite makes the Toil * wing judicious
observaiions: —JV*at. Intelligencer
“I'hts we can readily believe, for,
to some of the most experienced
metvhants of this city, the Tariff,
as published by authority, seemed
to t o daiu ma-iy incompatibilities ,
and it is doubMui, now whelier
the construction of the Comptroller
wdl, in all cases be admitted.
Thus, it appears ihai Congress, af
ter three month hard labor; produ
ced a bill so vague in many of iis
piovisioi>, that neither those who
are to pay nor those who are
to receive, the duties, can tell
with eenaimy the pee. ise amount
intruded to be imposed on a number
of unties of thefiegt importance !
“I he result ought, we thick, to
prevent sir future any general m>i
tiion ol the Tariff* li oenher mer
hauts nor treasury offi ers can tell
precisely what Congress would be
a>, the presumption is fair, that
Congress itself did not k >nw the ex
act hearing oi some of its euact
ments. The truth is, that a j’a
t iff has reference to so many ob
jei-ts, that it ought to be establish
ed noi by oue act, hui by many
Fa eh article, or rather ea* h class
of articles, should be the subject of
a distinct bill. This holds good,
whether revenue or protection, or
both eonj ii tly. be the object cf
imposing du'ics: tor if is seldom, if
ever, that t c same reasoning* ap
ply to nil articles inUU< rtinioately.
If wr fPM>t regulate trade, let us
do it odr sally, and this can never
be done by lumping together every
■.pei ies of merchandise. In Great
Britain, the first commercial coun
ty in the world, changes are al
ways made with (be greatest cau
tion, aad imposis are altered one
at a time.
“Tartial revisions cf the Tariff,
(when any revisions are deemed ne
cessary,) would further prevent tlie
improper influenced! local interests
on a subject which is strictly of a
geueral nature. The effect which a
combination of these interests had
on the present Tariff, is well known
to those who watched the bill in its
progress through b.wtb Houses.
Kentucky must have this, and Penn
sylvania must have that. Neither
was believed to he conducive to gen
eral god, but ea b was thought
advantageous foone particular stale.
These particular slates could not,
however, insist upon having their
particular good consulted without
tendering an equivalent, so Ken
tueky was forced • gwe this, and
Pennsylvania t.- g<rt tuat, till final
ty it may he doub ed whether any
local inteiesf was much ol a gainer.
The general good was a secondary
oojßsideraiiovi.”
J!r, Adams in Connecticut.
The am Vo i of e*eiy mail con
firms us iti the op'nion, heretofore
expressed, that the Adams ti. ket
tor electors in th:B •.late will n-1
p tvail. in this (tiartlmdy evun*
t;, NOT ONt thi o, oi tie voiti
will 1)4 gt>eu fur that lisk-
ei, and in many of the ether cotin
! ties the opposition to it is equally
strong. The present prevailing
opini n in New-Haven, Faitfielti,
and perhaps Litchfield counties is,
we giant, in tavor of Mr. Adams,
bn the other five counties are de
| cidedly against him, and no event
1 can induce them to support his
claims. The four republican news
papers which oppose Mr. Adams
have a greater patronage, and more
I extensive circulation, than the re
i maining republican papers, which
have enlis’ed uodsr his banner* j
and as to the federal papers—al
though the Minor, Middlesex Ga
j zete. New* London Gazette and
Norwich Courier have sworn alle
giance to this “sprig of nobility,”—
yet the other federal papers, as
well as a large proportion of that
party, seem to prefer almost anv of
die presideutiai candidates to M *.
idams.
Abroad, Connecticut is set down
as belonging to those stales which,
“ u.sder any circumstances,” will
vote for Mr. Adams. But it is high
• ime this illusion had vanished. If
this state has been sold, the sellers
may yet learn that they acted with
out authority—something more
iban the will of a few factious dem !
agogues being necessary to transfer i
her votes to Mr. 4dams. This er
roneous opinion as to Connecticut,
which prevails abroad, is founded
principally on the circumstances,
neither of which is entitled to
any great weightwe allude to j
(he confident assertions of the Ad
atns papers here, a> and the nomina
tion of President made at New Ha
ven, last spriog. As to the firmer, ,
we have only IQ say that the very :
b quious presses of Mr. Adams,
count, as being in their favor, every
person wno does not take the pains
to m ike knoivn to them ins opposi
tion } and hy this rule of logic very
wisely conclude that the state is for
Adams. And as to the nomination,
it is still more preposterous, if pos- ,
sible, to set dowo this as a true in- j
dic&tun of the public voice, as to !
the Presidency.
Nominations in this state do not
always conform to public opinion,
but mis one, is the result of a sys
tern of intrigue and management
without any parallel.—lt was made,
too, at a time when Mr, Crawford
was reported to be so dangerously
i sick that but little hopes were here
j entertained of his recovery, and
I whilst his character was suffering
■ under the charges of Ninian Ed
wards, which from (ha bJd and
confident manner in whi h they
were made, induced many of Mr.
Crawford’s friends to abandon bis
cause. Besides, the chief actors in
this scene took the very honorable
method of gaining proselytes, by
threatening vengeance and proscrip
tion against every one who dated
to think or act according to his own
opinion, or, in short, who refined to
bend (he knee to their idol. Under
these circumstances, was this nomi
nation made, and that it does not in
dicate what the public voice of this
s ate is, on the Presidential ques
tion, will be made manifest ai the
polls ou the first M inday of Novem
ber next. In the mean time, we
can assute our friends abroad that
Connecticut is safe.
