Robert Bledsoe \ Judgment Sp fie
f's. > ri facias to
<Jn.nr.BT Longstrf.et. * Nov. Ter. 1825.
The defendant moved to have satisfac
tion entered of record under the following
statement of facts, which was admitted on
noth sides, viz: The plaintiff’s attorney
was indebted to one Angus Martin, and
in discharge of his said debt assigned over
to Martin, the judgmeut and execution o
Bledsoe v. Longstreet. Longstreet, the
defendant, afterwards paid the amount of
the judgment to Martin, who entered sa
tisfaction on the fieri facias. The attor
ney received no money and the plaintiff
has not been paid.
The counsel for the plaintiff objected
on the grounds, 1st, that an attorney has
no power to assign a judgment; and, 2d,
that the satisfaction of the private debt of
the attorney was not such a payment to
the attorney, as would be a payment to
the plaintiff.
By the Court.—An attorney at law
has no power or authority to transfer or
assign a judgment, because he has no in
terest in the subject matter. His warrant
extends only to the obtainment of the
judgment, the suing out execution, and
tim recoiot of the money.—2 Bos. &, Pqjl.
ie7, l B nnev 469. An attorney cannot
delegate his authority to another, and
therefore Martin could have no authoriiy
to receive the money from Longstreet, as
the agent of the attorney of the plaintiff,
so ns to amount to a payment of the plain
tiff. It was formerly doubted whether
a payment to the attorney, was a payment
tn the plaintiff, though it is now settled to
be so; hut a payment to an agent ap
pointed bv the plaintiff’s attorney tn sue,
not a pavment to the plain'iff.—Doug.
Besides, nn attorney Imq only a
naked power, not coupled with an inter
est, and therefore he cannot transfer it;
for, one who has an authority to do an
•act for another, must execute it himself
and cannot transfer it to another, because
this being a trust and confidence reposed
in the party, cannot be assigned to a stran
ger, whose ability and integrity were not
so well thought of by him for whom the
act was to he done.—1 Bor. Abr. 320.
I lie attorney received no money from
Martin or Longstreet in pavment of the
judgment; and although he has acknow
ledged to have received value from Mar
tin, vet ihere has b?>en no payment to
him as the attorney, which in law or jus
tice would be a pavment to the plaintiff.
See Codwise v. Field, 9 John. Rep. 263,
where the court decided, that nothing but
a payment in cash to the officer can be
considered a pavment to the plaintiff and
a satisfaction of the execution.
An attorney cannot discharge a defen
dant tinder ca. sa. unless he receive the
money. It was a disputed point as early
ns the rase of Pavne vs. Cheete, 1 Roll.
Rep. 365, whether an attorney could ac
knowledge satisfaction without receiving
the money, in which Coke and Dod
dridge differed, and there is no case in
which that authority has been adjudged
to belong to him, and it is against the na
ture and limitation of his trust. The
most that the cases say, is, that he may
receive the money recovered by ca. sa.
and then acknowledge satisfaction.—2
Shaw. 138, l Roll. Rep. 365. See Jack-
son vs. Bartlett, S John. Rep. 367. The
plaintiff, Bledsoe, has not been paid—
The attorney has received no money;
and if the defendant, Longstreet, has
paid the amount of the judgment to Mar
tin, he has done it in his own wrong, be
cause Martin was not the agent of the
plaintiff, and had therefore no authority
to receive it; the judgment and fi. fa. are
still unsatisfied, and the defendant can
take nothing by his motion. Motion de
nied.

WM. SCHLEY, Judge.
THE FEDERAL CONSTITUTION,
Dr. Franklin-. he.
, A friend has furnished us with an in
teresting manuscript, relating to a most
Important period of our history. The
I circumstances here detailed are new to
j V s ’ n “ ( * we believe they have never be-
-^ r . e i'i ° n ma( ^ e public. The narrative
,s ,n . 10 w c» r ds of Gen. , one of the
mem ersof the General Convention which
framed the Constitution. It was com-
n V e r, ° P a P er by the gentleman to
whom Gen. detai]ed ffae facfs> and
we now ate the satisfaction of laying it
before our readers. N v ffnr
“ I was,” said Gen “a’delegate
r ° m Zrr. ‘"nDf , Gpneral Convention
assembled in Ph.ladelphia, for the pur
pose of digesting a Constitution for the
" nited States, and I believe I was the
youngest member of that body. The
great and good Washington was chosen
°ur President, and Dr. Franklin, among
other great men, was a delegate from
discovered in some members to display
themselves in* oratorical flourishes—but
the good sense and discretion of the ma
jority put down all such attempts. We
had convened to deliberate upon, and if
possible, effect a great national object—
to search for political wisdom and truth—
these we meant to pursue with simplicity,
and to avoid every thing which would
have a tendency to divert our attention,
or perplex our scheme.
A great variety of projects were pro
posed—all republican in their general out
lines, but different in their details. It
therefore determined that certain elemen-
tary principles should at first be establish
ed in each branch of the intended con
stitution, and afterwards the details should
be debated and filled up.
There was little or no difficulty in de
termining upon the elementary principles
such as for instance that the govern
ment should be c. republican representa
tive government. That it should be di
vided into three branches, i. e. Legisla
tive, Executive, and Judicial, Spc. But
when the organization of the respective
branches of the Legislature came under
consideration, it was easy to be perceived
that the eastern and the southern states
had distinct interests, which it was diffi
cult to reconcile, and that the larger states
were disposed to form a constitution in
which the smaller states would be mere
appendages and satellites to the larger
ones. On the first of these subjects
much animated and somewhat angry de
bate had taken place, when the ratio of
representation in the lower House of
Congress was before us, the southern
states claiming for themselves the whole
number of black population, while the
eastern states were for confining the elec
tive franchise to freemen only without re
spect to color.
As the different parties adhered perti
naciously to their different positions, it
was feared that this was an insurmounta
ble obstacle; but as the members were
already satisfied that no constitution could
be formed which would meet the views
and subserve the interests of each indivi
dual state, it was evident that it must be
a matter of compromise and mutual con
cession. Under these impressions, and
with these views, it was agreed at length
that each state should be entitled to one
Delegate in the House of Representatives
for every thirty thousand inhabitants—in
which number should be included three-
fifths of their slaves.
When the details of the House of Re
presentatives were disposed of, a more
difficult point presented itself in the or
ganization of the Senate. The larger
states contended that the same ratio as to
States should be common to both branches
of the Legislature—or, in other words,
that each state should be entitled to a
representation in the Senate (whatever
number might be fixed on) in proportion
to its population, as in the House of Re
presentatives. The smaller, states, on
the other hand, contended that the House
of Representatives might be considered
as the guardian of the liberties of the peo
ple, and therefore ought to bear a just
proportion of their numbers, but that the
Senate represented the sovereignty of the
states—and that as each state, whether
great or small, was equally an indepen
dent and sovereign state, It ought in this
branch of the Legislature to have equal
weight and authority ; without this they
said there would be no security for their
equal rights; and thev would by such a
distribution of power be merged and lost
in the larger states.
This reasoning, however plain and
powerful, had but little influence on the
minds of Delegates from the larger states,
and as they formed & large ma jority of the
Convention, the question, after passing
thro’ the forms of debate, was decided that
each state should be represented in the
Senate in proportion to its population.”
When the Convention had adjourned
over, to the next day, the Delegates of
the four smallest states, i. e. Rhode-Island,
Connecticut, New-Jersey. and Delaware,
convened to consult what course was to
be pursued in the important crisis at which
we have arrived—after serious investiga
tion, it was soleml v determined to ask for
a reconsideration the next morning; and
if it was not granted, or if when granted,
that offensive feature of the constitution
could not be expunged, and the smaller
states put upon an equal footing with the
largest, we would secede from the Con
vention, and, returning to our constitu
ents, inform them that no compact could
ble, for one of the minority to propose a
reconsideration, at the moment their act
hao become a matter of record; and with-
oat pretending that any new light could
be thrown on the subject—that If such a
precedent should be established, it would
in future be impossible to say when any
one point was definitely settled, as a small
minority might, at any moment, again and
again, move and obtain a reconsideration
they therefore hoped the Convention
would express its decided disapprobation,
by passing silently to the business before
them.
There was much warm, and some acri
monious feeling exhibited by a number
of the speakers—a rupture appeared al
most inevitable, and the bosom of Wash
ington seemed to labor with the most anx-’
ious solicitude for its issue. Happily fpr
the U. States, the convention and some
individuals possessed of talents and vir
tues of the highest order, whose hearts
were deeply interested in the establish
ment of a new and efficient form of go
vernment; and whose penetrating minds
had already explored the evils which
would spring up in our newly established
Republic, should the present attempt to
consolidate it prove abortive. Among
those personages the most prominent was
Dr. Franklin. He was esteemed the
Mentor of our body. To a mind natur
ally strong and capacious, enriched bv
much reading, and the experience of ma
ny years, he added a manner of commu
nicating his thoughts peculiarly his own,
in which simplicity, beauty and s<rength,
were equally conspicuous. As soon
as the angry orators who preceded
him had left him an opening, the Doctor
rose, evidently impressed with the weight
of the subject before him, and the diffi
culty of managing it successfully.
“We have arrived, Mr. President/’
said he, “at a very momentous and inter
esting crisis in our deliberations. Hi herto
our views have been as harmonious, and
our progress as great, as could leasonably
be expected. But now an unlooked for
and formidable obstacle is thrown in our
way, which threatens to arrest our course,
and if not skillfully removed, to render
all our fond hopes of a constitution abor
tive. The ground which was taken bv
the delegates of the four smallest States
was unexpected by me, and as repugnant
to my feelings as it can be to any other
member of this convention.
After what T thought a full and im
partial investigation of the subject, I re
corded my vote in the affirmative side of
the question, and I have not yet heard
anv thing which induces me to change
my opinion. But I will not therefore
conclude it impossible for me to do wrong!
I will not say that those gentlemen who
differ from me are under a delusion!
much less will I charge them with an in
tention of needlessly embarrassing our
deliberations. It is possible some change
in our late proceedings ought to take
place upon principles of mutual justice;
or that all things considered, the majority
may see cause to recede from some of
their just pretensions. as a matter of pru
dence and expediency. For my own
part there is nothing I so much dread as
a failure to devise and establish some
equal and efficient form of government for
our infant Republic. The present effort
has been made under the happiest auspi
ces, and has promised most favorable re
sult?—hut should this effort prove vain, it
will be long ere another can be made with
any prospect of success. Our strength
and our prosperity will depend on our
unity; and the secession of even four of
the smallest States, interspersed as they
are, would in my mind paralyse and ren
der useless, any plan which the'majority
could devise. I should therefore be grie
ved, Mr.President, to see matters brought
to the test, which has been perhaps too
rashly threatened on the one hand, and
which some of my colleagues have treated
too lightly on the other. I am convinced
that it is a subject which should be ap
proached with caution—treated with ten
derness—decided on with candor and li
berality. It is however to be feared, that
the members of this convention are not in
a temper at this moment to approach the
subject on which we differ in this spirit;
I would therefore propose, Mr. President,
that without proceeding further in this
business at this time, the convention
should adjourn for three days, in order to
let the present ferment pass off, and to
afford time for a more full, free and dis
passionate investigation of the subject.—
And I would earnestly recommend to the
uniformly to assemble with us, and intro
duce the business of each day by an ad-
dress to the Creator of the Universe and
the Governor of all Nations, beseeching
ttim to preside in our council—enlighten
our minds with a portion of heavenly wis
dom—influence our hearts with a love of
truth and justice, and crown our labors
with a complete and abundant success.”
I he Doctor sat down, and never, said
eij s - did I behold a countenance at
once so dignified and delighted, as was
that of Washington, at the close of this
a dress. Nor were the members of this
Convention generally less affected. The
words of the venerable Franklin fell upon
our ears with a weight and authority even
gieater than we may suppose an oracle
to have had in a Roman senate. A silent
admiration superseded, for a moment, the
expression of that assent and approbation
which was strongly marked on almost
-every countenance; I say almost, for one
man was found in the Convention, Mr.
* fr° m , who rose and said—
VVtlh regard to the first motion of the
honorable gentleman for an adjournment,
he would yield his assent; but he pro-
tested against the second motion, for the
appointment of a chaplain. He then
commenced a high strained eulogium on
the assemblage of wisdom, talent and ex
perience which the convention embraced
declared the high sense lie entertained
of the honor which his constituents had
conferred upon him, in making him a
member of that respectable body; since
he was confidently of opinion, that they
they were competent to transact the bu-
riness which had been entrusted to their
care, that they were equal to every exi
gence which might occur, and concluded
by saying, that therefore he did not see
the necessity of calling in foreign aid!
Washington fixed his eyes upon the
speaker with a mixture of surprise and
indignation, while he uttered titis imperti
nent and impious speech! and then look
ed around to see in what manner it af
fected others. They did not leave him a
minute to doubt, no one deigned to reply,
or take the smallest notice of the speaker;
but the motion for appointing a chaplain
was instantly seconded and carried; whe
ther under the silent disapprobation of
Mr. II , or his solitary negative, I do
not recollect. The motion for an ad
journment was then put, and carried una
nimously, and the Convention adjourned
accordingly.
The three days of recess were spent in
the manner advised by Dr. Franklin; the
opposite parties mixed with each other,
and a f ee and frank inierchange of senti-
ineurs rook place. On ihe fourth day We

A- soon as 'he chaplain had ended his

Doctor. He rose, and in a few words

“ I was deputed,” said Gen. , “to
be the organ through which this commu
nication should be made—I know not
why, unless it be that young men are ge
nera 1 ly chosen to perform rash actions—
Accordingly, when the Convention had
assembled, and as soon as ihe minutes of
the last sittings were read, I rose and
stated the view we had taken of the or
ganization of the Senate—our desire to
obtain a reconsideration and suitable mo
dification of that article; and in failure
thereof, our determination to secede from
the Convention and return to our consti
tuents.
This disclosure, it may readily be sup
posed, produced an immediate and great
excitement in every part of the House.—
Several members were immediately on
the floor to express their surprise or in
dignation! They represented that the
question had received a full and fair in-,
vestigation, and had been definitely set
tled by a very large majority—that it was
recess, not in asso
ciating with their own party, and devising
new arguments to fortify themselves in
their old opinions ; but that they mix with
members of opposite sentiments, lend a
patient ear to their reasonings, and can
didly allow them all the weight to whi 'h
they may be entitled; and when we as
semble again, I hope it will be with a de
termination to form a constitution-!—if not
such an one as we can individual^ and in
all respects approve—yet the best which,
under existing circumstances, can be ob
tained.” (Here the countenance of Wash
ington brightened, and a cheering ray
seemed to break in upon the gloom which
had recently covere 1 our political hori
zon.) The Doctor continued. “Before
I sit down, Mr..President, I will suggest
another matter, and I am really surprised
that it has not been proposed by some
other member at an earlier period of our
