N > credit was due to an'ther imputation fu often repeated of a desire prevalent with a majority of that house, to crush the opposite par y. For his part, he declared that his objeft w;.s to crush So man, but .to reform certain principles and to explode others which his daily obser vation convinced him were mischievous, and inconsistent with good government. The gentleman from Pennfylvam'a had concluded with exprelfing his carry war into our borders." He p'cfumcd the gentleman did not mean literally to levy war against his opponents. The gentleman had acquired great credit as a polit cal war rior, but he had often fullained his fire with out much injury. If he really intended to bring a new force of artillery into the field, it is our duty, said Mr. 0. to unite in throwing up such rampart 3 and bastions as may be requisite for our dt fence. But as the gentleman has never yet succeeded in forcing our camp, n>r defeated us either by storm or surprise, there was no occasion to drtad his return to the charge. —Qn the whole, he thought the resolution highly worthy of attention, and hoped it would pass.
