Wo have heard, sir, with no littles pict

tie piece of mosaic, which our friend, tho i
Senator from Philadelphia, (Mr. CON-'. . . . . , ... ', ...

the "nmsty " precedents of seventy years
and upon the landmarks of the past mark
ed out by by tho men who framed the Con
stitution of IT'.'O, and who administered it
for thirty years ; if, sir, he means to say
that in this we are puilty of using red tape,
sirs, we glory in the red tape; nnd I, as
one of the sixteen cmoerntic Senators
upon this floor, (ami I speak not nlono for
myself, but for each nnd all of us,) will
tver stand behind these ramparts nnd up
on these "musty" precedents, sustaining
AhiK doetrir.c of red tape. Sirs, you nro in
t evolution, and you know it not. Sirs, the
'muty records" of tho pasture those that
yrcerve to thispoople their liberty, their
property, their ancient birth-right; find
are these t'no ''musty precedents" ol the
prut and this Constitution, formed by tho
fathers of the Revolution, to be swept out
of existence, to be ubrogated, and new pre
cedent and new doctrines to be initiated
here, because, forsooth, to-day we have
learned that they are red tape? Sirs, al
though younger in years than the Sena
tor from I'hiladelpha I am one of those
il,l fashioned men who believe in stand-
inpbvthe t,chin,.sor (he past; who be-
lieve there, and there alone, are we to find
.letv now and in the future. And, sirs, as

vo.i are wron?. If you desire an ' organ i-

ielieve conchi ive upon this question-! Wo have here the law for the precedent
bear with i:.e uhiKt I state them. The that was cited with disapprobation by he
Constitution of the Commonwealth of Senator from Sus,Uel,nnr.a. (Mr. Tunvll.)
lVtmsvlva.ia-aid I cite it, however I fai'1 lh,u 11 was nlstom llial oud,t
"musty and at fuuated" the proceedings to y oliliol, that tho custom ofadmin
nr.y be-the Constitution of Pennsylvania istcring the oath of office after the elcc-
pnvides. in Feotion l'i, that "the General lion Wi4S a CUilo'n
Assembly shall meet on the flr-.t Tu.s.lav ' Ml-' Tl R,,,;' 1 fni(l lhnl thfi fadi-'e
in Janmirv or eveivyear unless sooner of allowing men to act officially without
ivonveneil by the Ooverner." What is (he nriloa of an oath was a practice that
General Aivmhly ? What is defined, in ought to bo abandoned,
the first Bioticn.0f the same aiticlo ? Tho' Mr. Wallace. Then, Mr. Speaker, I
1. relative power of this CVmonwealth
it It til bo vested in a Senile end a House ef
l;.M.vesentattves. Thus we have what tho
"wor.is "Ceneral Assembly" mean: a Sen-
:e and a house of UenreseiUntive. .
Now we i.r.s to section 11. "Kach house
hal! ehco.- its Speaker and ollicers. Tho
J-i'i.a'e ,'liall nlso eheose a Speaker i;v ten
i) tv whin the Speaker shall exercise the,1'011 sworn, he is to ndmniister the oath
office of iiovei'itei'." Now, the lirl query
j i:-, what do l,heo wcrds '-each house" us
lis,-d in the eleventh section mean? Tho
i'lteoretation given to them by tho fir.t
- section of article I, shows that they mean
Senato aud a House or Representatives.
' "Kach houso," then means a Senate or a
, House of Kcpiesentatives.
There is ia addition to this obivious
' meaning, another monning. Thev havo
reference to Ac duration cf the existence of
those two bodie?. These word .'c.:,
.liouso" measure the time during which
tho-otwo bodies are to exist. If tho
.."Worth "General Aisembly" mean a Iliuse
, A a Senate the words "each house" mean
each Senate nnd each House of Kepresen-
lalivos and thus we havo each Sennit ehall
ehco?e its Sy,lcr and other oJhcera. Thero is
no evad ng this construction. It is dear -
ly and distinctly laid down by the words

Now, how absurd it would lo to say
that tho honso thut sat last year shall

who mot hero this year. It, i-t contrary to
common senso; it is contrary to every going, .Senator term expires tu ll:o (clo

punpo "Knch house may deteruine tho
. ,, ... ,
rules of its proceed
proceedings." Now, shall it bo
uaid that the Senate of last year is to de
termine, tho nilei of the proceedings of
this body. If that be tho truo construe
tion, then we havo the rules of last ses
sion in full foreoand governing us. Suedi
a construction has never been attempted :
to he set up, nnd it is contrary to good j
sense, tho section continues :
"punish its members for disorderly behav
ior, nnd with the concurrence of twotLirds,
expel a member, but not a second time
for tho same cause.
Can it ho said that these words "each
house" monn that the Senate that sat here
las year has the right to expel a member of
this body ? Certainly .not. No man will
contend lor such a construction. Then if
these wold in sectionss 1" and lu limit
the construction they do the suoie in sec
tion 11, and tliewoids "each house" have
special refeieneo to tho duration of the ex
istence of each body ; thpl is, the sessions
of each house commence on tho first
Tuesday of January and last until the first
Tuesday of January of each succeeding
ycai .
We hove, then the words and the eon-
loxt to ""fining our position. What
cxt wo have to susta.n our position? I
po back again to the " musty records" that
ftr ci,,l ,vith disapprobation by tho Sen-
'xlor fin,n 1'hiladelphia. Here on the
ftiltllte book, I find ft law of 1 SOI, that
r'eser i'es i ne uioite oi uiiiuinisieriiig inu
oath to the Speaker of this Senate.
What nrj its words? "Hint when either
branch of the Legislature thull have made
choice of a Speaker the oaths and nllirmn
tinns prescribed in the Constitution oT this
Coimmin wealth nnd in tho Constitution
of the United Stales, shall be administered

W "' nn"fr ,0 the argument of
llie Senator from Sus.juehanna is found in
of "1C,S0 ""'""'y I'recedents" that
has been upon the statute books of ll.o
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for sixty
'irs- 11 is to tlay tljU liUV of tLe lan(!-
that the Speaker ot the Senate is to bo
sworn before entering upon his office, and
to the incoming Seuators. We have thus
the law nearly cotemporaneous with the
provision in the Constitution. We have,
then, the continued praetie, without asin-
P' precedent to hre. the continuous
', cl",in fnn" 1T0 1 to this day.
,' Thui we have the obvious meaning of
wori,ti' 1,10 '&text, the law, aud the
practice, all according with our position.
r'1" lheic is nnother thin? upon which it
, nppcnra to me Senators err-and I refer as
well to Senators on our side of the liou.se
as lo natnrs on the other tide of the
house. It is this, that ro Spep.ker was
over elected at the close of a session unless
the Speaker who vacated the chair was an
out-going Senator. That has been the
practice, I asert, from the tomiiicnce-
' dent of Iho government. Now, if that.
, he true, there is no law and no precedent j
for the oleetiou of a Speaker at the close ;

nato branch, the Nouso, meet the people
annually at tho October election and therti
thoy surrender their powers to them.
And, sirs, wo here too havo our powers
defined and our time limited. Two-thirds
of the members of tho Senate hold over,
w hile the terms of ofiieo of the remaining
third of the Senatois expire on the second
Tuesday of October, and the Speaker that
is elected by the preceding Senate, being
u Senator who hold;, over, comes to tho
chair at tho incoming session. Then
comes with the records of his office, the
Secretary of tlio Commonwealth, and be
brings to the bar of the Senate and to tho
man in tho chair, the official notification
that the people have said his duties are at j
nn end. Sir, when the Secretary of the j
Commonwealth comes to the bar of the
Senate with the certificates of the election !
of eleven new Senators, iiiere i.i anew ele-j
ment in this' body, and the man in the
chair has official notifea'ion under the
Constitution of the Commonwealth, that
his duties me ended ; and practice, prece
dent and law rcijuiro that he should leave
the eh; ir. In the pa-t. he has always j
left it, hilt now e find a Spci.ker attempt-j
ing to retain it, sustained by the Scnn'ort
from Philadelphia, and the name of Usui- ;
per given to him with congratulation.
Siis, the doctrine of a perpetual organ i-j
zation is contrary to the gonious ef our in- j
slituiions. Sirs, that
int.. l.:.
me i it'z iiei ct
dies" is not the doctrine of n, rcpublica
government; and, sirs, that the creature
,.1'lt.f. ,.n.,l,l. ..., 1.. nn, Inn tl,.. r,, ,.,u ('.
law lasts forever is not the doctrine of a
republican government. I a-k gentlemen
if they know whither tliey too teiidin
ask them whether they are not becoming
ari"tocratic in their tettdeneiej ; whether
this doctrine that tho Speaker never dies
is not very nearly parallel with the doc
trine that the King never dies. Sirs, we
have always a Senate composed of at hast
two-thirus of the entire number: and
whethcr the chair be vacitt by reason of
the death of the Governor nml of
the Speaker of the Senate, or because of
r , ? t. , .
ll failureon the part of the Senate to
, , . , ... .. . , r
elect, amount, to nothing. 1 he right of
