The Conaiiiulion nf Pennsylvania iaaub- slant ially copied iu this particular froth the Coriatitutiou of tba United Stale. ; like that, it contains a provision that bulb HonsM.hail keep a journal. The Senator from Penn sylvania, many years ago, while a member of one branch ol that Legislature, moved a resolution declaring that it waa a violation of the Constitution to expunge any -thing from lire journal once entered there- He ia of lira some opinion still; mid he proposes to be coimsleril, and yet vote for ex pooping what ia entered on tneji.uinale of this body, under a precisely similar, constitutional pro vision!

Murk well the first paragraph, and the conclusion, lo short, the whole extract, being of ike highest order of truth uud cloquuuuO, will doublj repuy an alien- " o perusal.] In Kugluud, ftotn which vrtdarive our fret iautitutiuire, uud lo which w« still refer for prccedout of parliaaieutary iodepeudeuco, ((Jod kuows how long those exam plea may bu endured) iu Euglaud, it is uoldeetuod the duly of i*arliuuiuut lo address the Kiog, or to auswor Ids address ia terms ouly of ao- quioRcetico and praise. The British Purlia- uiuut represents a free people, afld (bey have uot forgotten to spfiak the laogduge of free- meu *, uud did auy one ever hear uf aa at tempt in thut body to cast reproach upon it- seller uny id’its membersbecauso they ven tured in such address to move or lo express disapprobation of the uets of their monarch, or to assort their own right* or the rights of tho people ? It cerluiutv ba* out been deemed a cause for expunging their journals tiiui they contain something disagreeable to luujesty. There was a time, it is irus, as late as the reigu of Charles the First, wheu the Kiug seat iutc (he House of Commons his warrnot lo arrest and imprison members for words uttered ou tlie Boor of Rurlumiout; but thut titno ha* goue by.- Crest Biitiao, moving iu the dircctioo towards freeuom aud (he pet feeling of free instiiuiiotis, btis luug siuce passed that point, 1 sod we, tending as rapidly towards despotic power, have not yet quite reuched it; When we look at Brit ish prccedeuts and refer to British history, we ought uot to forget that they and we have storied atdirterent points, and are moviug iu diilcreut directions. Thtu, beginning with au irregular and almost despotic monarchy, with undefined |>owcrs, checked only by iha strength of tlie feudal aristocracy, have marched onward slowly hut steadily, step by step, towards the perfection ef a free and re- preeeofative Otiveiumeut; and perhaps they are still moviug onward. De, commencing with a pure coijtnhutional representative Government, with justly halnnced powers, have rushed onward with a velocity almost inconceivable inward* despotism, if it bu decorous to call that despotism which con centrates ail the power* of the Government iu o single man, and makes his will the law. If, in our different course, we should meet our great archetype, and ffnd, at aotne oue moment of our history, our Government lo be what hers is or tout, we are nut to sup pose that our careor is thenceforward to be tlie same. If wo meet, we pas* with the swiftness of moving engines, so that we can scarcely catch q glance of that which we have met, and from wliich we are passing. Mr. President, every thing intrinsic und extrinsic—ull that cau catch the popular car, or enlist quo vulgar passion, uo matter how low and base, is resorted to by gentlemen wiio ought to be, and who are pornfable to Hustain them in tho commission of this act. The tienator from Virginia, (Mr. Rive*,) could you credit il, sir^ffay* that this Senate, which is one ofthe constitutional deportments of our Government, and without which the Jorm, na well us tho essence, of our Govern merit rortld not exht; that this Senate, of which he himself is a member, arid which a common, but very homely proverb might teach’ him he could not dishonor without srlf-decradotion ; this Senate, he says, it es sentially on aristocratic body, riding upon the back of tho people. l)o we hear that here, nml from such a source, or was I de ceived l Who nru they that compose (he aristocracy of this body ? Men elected hy the Slates to discharge, for a time, an im portant trust ; and who, when that trust is discharged, nnd ihc period of tlieir service ended, return again to the common mass Irom which they wero taken. Aristocracy I Whore is the danger, where is the possibility oi au aristocratic order rising up in this Un ion ?
