This bill as amended in the Senate, contains tivo distinct propositions—the a•. tnentlinent is not germain to khe original bill dues nut relate to it-does not restrict it, nor even qualify it. Now, sir, that this is a gross violation of. this jointrule, I am confident no one here doubts. ' Under the.l4thjoint .rule, h might with great propriety raise a question of order, but 'as. this would probably came befiire the House upon a submission by the Chair, or Mweal, prefer, to trust to a direct vote up ott the question of concurrence, feeling as sured that all who. believe there has ber an infraction of our joint rules, will at once vote against this Motion, and thus sustain our dig nity and independence, and- put our seal of disapprobation up,9l amendments so: loon :•irons in their form, and still wore so in their merits. But, sir, to pass to the merits of these atnendinents: what is their object, and to N%lppin are they leveh-d ? What is to he gaincd by thou'? Does am:one here defeitd the ? I, it pretuffiled fir a moment that it is rig la to ab`lisli thel I:ith judicial met ! Is there anyone to claim the necessi ty or expediiitof the move ! Why, sir, apiin the face of this bill, ii we had no other iiviikakie, It is perfectly apparent that. the only olipct in this wove is S to crush out a : lod ge , and disfranchise the peopl,'S of a. triet. hi this bill we create a di.triet counties dint in theng... c .treg'itte t4tilain only 'about thirty thousand people, while, era tide anus Gill we aLu.iislt One containing ni;)ely Thousand, or three times as ninny ! • This is not done in giaal.„ faith: it is 1101. dune to further the ends of justice: done as a piece of political persecution. And hits it come to this, that the Legislature of Penn sylvania is about to resolve itself into a po litical inquisition, and to 'torture ppm: the rack all who do not give their 'adherence 'to certain political tenets ? . It is said that this rt,' ust be done to rid the people of_Bradford and Susquehanna of a tylinnical and political Judge ; but this is the merest- pretense ; for it do e s not,pi•opose lu aGet, .1,141ge Wllntot's commission.• This hill does not take etfcet until the first day of December next, when, if the people have_ such a Judge, they mill be rid of hint by the expiration of his cominis'sion. The o bj ec t of this mote, sir, is to prevent the people of that d'ist net frOin electing a Judge next fall, because it is expected that their choice will fall upon Judge Wilmot. In other words, the people must b•-2 o. holly' disfranchised, be cause, if permitted to exercise their fianehise, they w ill choose to administer upon their lives and prouerty, the very emit they wish to .occupy ipt position. If we risk this, ,we set up our' judgment against the people of the district, and virtually say, " if they are permitted to elect a judge this fall, they will choest. a person totally unfit ; and so much hetter dtr we know whom they want for a J u dge, than jts.7.liii.iiin in stripping them oftheir'constitutional rights." Now, sir, I will not suffer such a libel Upon my constituency to pass unrchuked. I should be derelici, to ,tny duty; did I not characterize it, as it is, a grog's rd Wanton outrage, up the soverehoty of that people. The citizens of Bradford and Susquehanna arc not ignorant they read and make up their own minds. They arc able to. scrutim ize the••conduct of a public servant, and H foetid faithful are ever ready to reward him; and kell you, sir, if they have one Who has proved himi:elf unworthy, it constituency in • this or any other State, will go farther to re rbuke hint. They will nut stiffer an unworthy man to sit in judgment'upon their characters; prOperty; and lives.. No, sir, too much of the blood of our forefathers still flows in their veins to wink at tyranny; and injustice, or to sit quietly and see themselves robbed of their constitutional rights. Be assured, sir,—anil I would that l had the ear of all .who have been active in this move, urging it on,--:be as.sured, sir, if Judge Wilmot is not worthy he is theonatt be has been represented here tube by 'his maligners-L•the people of his kttiet will reject him with,scorn. It is said that the people in those counties desire this change: that. over fOur thousand of the Democrats of Susquehanna-Lave asked , it. Now, who is it that has the efirontery to speak thus ant hmitatively for Susquehanna? I should like to ask them hew many Demo crats thl.:rc- are in Susquehanna ? 1 believe, sir, 1 ani their duly constituted Representa tive, and their only one upon this flour, and being such, I deny the right of any one else to speak ti.at that comity. Now, sir, with ..1 ft.il sense of nry responSibility to the peep. ;de of that county for every, word I utter, 1 atil,ert, boldly and emphatically, and I rant all to apprehend me, I assert, sir, that 114 measure is not desired by tii, people of Sus. qui - Jinn:nu county ' but, on the contrary, they are very genera - 11y opposed ‘o 'it ; yes, sir, take out half a dozen men, and not one lisp . would you have heard front that county, fa vorable to this bbld, unjust scheme. Now, who is to be believed'? lobby members, men i who front malignity are pursuingludge Wd- - ot with a deadly hatred; or the Represent ' ative whom the people have accredited, lnire to speak and act for them 1 .1 do rot speak with fear and treiribling about this matter. I know the people of my county, and I have no fears, if 1 were to go befovthetn, with these words upon My lips, - but that I should be heartily anti enthusiastically sustained. It' the people of that District desired this change, that they might have a better Jtidge they would - not seek it at' -our hands, when in a short time they can make their own change. at the ballot box, the great corrective of eve ry abuse,-and elect their own chosen man for a Judge. It is apparent, sir, Ar people 'ere not in this Mod, as we arc - told here, for. if the 'peoplewere animus to get: - rid, of Judge Wilmot, why will not these men who are. urging this Measure, trust,i.oxthe election ? N) , e ha v e hot and cold 'at one breath. By . 7 . their own wordthey tultify themselves, and I prove all they say to be destitute of truth. We are asked, sir, to disfranchiSe the:people of that District, against their 'kill expressed I here by remonstrance, and onanimouslythrb 7 their Representatives: we are' ,asked to lin (' pose upon them -a Judge, ;in: the -chbleel',of 1 whom they have had no vorce, Merely to .gratify a few malignant Men,. who 'entertain l p'aitical animosity tiawardsdudge WiltnOt. • .. - llim . whom they cannotAisplace from thd confidence of the people of the District they would strike down by the, strong arm of power.

That Judge mot has a very few times during the several' years he has held hi 4 eMfifriifsion, upon invi- • littion.of his fellow citizens, for he never did it• wit hout,) discussed the. great question.with which be is so ,closely, cokspicuonsly, and hotiorably, identified, I am - free to acknowl edgi3; -Init that he was 'ever influenced one iota by party feeling, in dsselarrge•of his . udi cial lutics 1 do 1114 - I . llr moment isehevis s nor I think any of his revilers believe - it.

',' _fill, sir, what a strange sphere we ! Deinceratic Judges, clothed in their -erudite, aml*surrounded by all the prestige of : the highest 3 udicial tribunal in' the world,• may announce dogmas dpon this question, alilte new, startling, and subversive.of every hith erto received construction of the Constitution: doctrines abhorrent to 'every patriot and phi lanthropist, and causing ' tinge of 'shame up op every true Ainerien s cheek ; and strange to say; it is all right! No ostracisut here, and tio'victiin required fur the sacrifice. No, this is right, for it adds a new prop to the one institution: -and no one must raise it voice or-even a lisp against its propriety , or ,justice at the-paw of excommunication.

"Those whom the_Gods world destr.,y, ,they first make mad." Mythology never gave a truer saying ; and never was it inure applicable than to the Deituierat le party ; if Justice, Remonstrance, and Constitutional franehiSc's are yo•safegnard to our people ; if because, a Judge is obnoxious in his political sentimeniS, that party violates every, princi ple of right, stultifies every better emotion of the heart. and Nij,th the strong arni of pow •er, strikes down Nit Judge and totally dis. frarrchises the people. Pardon me, sir, for this .seeming digres sion from what might be deemed legitimate argument upon this gilresticin. My feelings are tiibdeeply enlisted here, to always follow in a logical path of diteussion ; but I trust my di gressions may all . have at h ast a remote hearing upon the question under considera tion. • Again, sir, that this bill is cleat ly unconsti. tutionall think uo one can doubt, n ho has green. it even a.cursory examination.
