    Resolved, That Thaddeus Stevens
Esq having been elected a representative
from Adams county by a majority of tour.
teen hundred votes, and said election not
having been disputed, it is not in the pow
er of either the House or a committee of
the House to set aside the expressed will
of a majority of the people.
Resolved, That the committee appoint
ed to inquire whether said Thaddeus Ste
vens has.not forfeited his right to a seat as
member of the House of Representatives of
Pennsylvania, be discharged from a fur
ther consideration of the subject.
Resolved, That upon taking the neces
nary qualifications, Thaddeus Stevens be
forthwith admitted to a seat.
The Bill vetoed by Gov. Porter was cal
led Alp when Mr. Hill of Westmoreland,
took occasion to express his disapprobation
of the course of the Governor; McElwee,
tried to explain, and by way of excuse
said "THERE IS NOT A DOLLAR
IN THE TREASURY —THE LAST
LOAN IS NOT TAKEN, and the late
`session has already increased the State
'debt a million"—What do the Farmers
think of thin mhnission by one of the par
ty leaders; the veto was sustained; as it
required two thirds to pass the bill.
On Tuesday in the Senate, the qualifi
cation of A. H, Read, was discussed, and
his nomination, to the P:esident Judgship
of the district composed of Warren and
some other counties, was, we arc happy
to say, rejected.
In the House, a Bill was cffered pro
vidiag for the election of canal commis
sioners, one each year by the people, and
we rejoice to find that the oppenents of the
present administration, the real Demo.
crate advocated the measure while the Lo
cos, with one honorable exception oppo
sed the right of the people to elect thei r
own canal commissioners; now let them
prate to the people about democracy!
On Wednesday in the Senate, the time
was used until adjournment discussing
the pay of the troops. In the House, the
Bill for electing canal commissioners was
taken, and the Loco Foco Democrats, op
posed most strenausly, the right of the
people to elect them. What do the peo
ple think of such democracy.
, On Thursday, nothing done in the Sen.
'ate. In the House a petition was receiv.
ed from Mrs. Runnels, asking to be admit
ted as a member in the place of Thaddeus
Stevens, setting Forth, that as the house
had declared that the people had no righ t
,to elect a member, she hoped they in their'
supreme power, would give her the seat,
and strange as it may appear, the jaca.
napes did not know that it was intended
for redicule, and referred it to the com
mittee on Mr. Stevens' case. The ques
tion of electing canal commissioners came
up again; Mr. Hill of West Moreland
said, "it was a democratic proposition,
and it would redound the everlasting
disgrace of this majoxiko , 'of this louse. it'
rejected. The vote wasSP; and rejec
ted; the following are-the yes and nays—

Ma. STEVENS AND THE INQUISI
TORI iti, COMM 11"114'.E,
• II e invite the attention of our readers
to the following correspondence between
the Inquisitorial Committee, appointed by
the Loco Foco House of Representatives
who refused to allow him his constitution
al 'Rights,' by depriving him of a seat in
that body.
We would suppose that when the inquis
itors-read his reply to their call of atten
.danp, _that the blush of shame must have
mantled their cheeks at the conviction of
their own ignorance, if any of the Loco
Focos are susceptible of such an emotion,
and that they must have felt that they are
engaged in a contemptible as well as a trea
sonable proceeding.—But we hope they
will go on in their course; is it too late for
them to retreat, and the more they trample
upon the Constitution, the more emphatic
will be the condemnation of the people,
whose rights and liberties arc thus out
raged, by petty tyrants, and malignant
usurpers.--Her. Tel.
LETTER FROM THE COMMITTEE TO 111 R•
STEVENS.
Thaddeus Stevens Esq.
Sitt:--The committee, appointed by the
House of Representatives, "to inquire
whether Thaddeus Stevens, a member e
lect from the county of Adams, has not
forfeited his right to a seat in the House,°
will meet fur that purpose, in the East
Committee room of the House, en Mon
day next, at 4 o'clock P. M. or at an
earlier period if you desire it, w here you
may attend and be heard.
CHAS. M. ILEGINE4
Chairman.
Harrisburg, Saturd ly j
Morning, May 11, 1839 5
Chas. M. Hegins, Est
Sir:—l received your letter of the 11th
instant, informing me, that the committee
appointed by [the House of Representa
tives "to inquire whether Thaddeus Ste
vens a member elect from the county of
Adams, has not forfeited his right to a seat
in the House." will meet on Saturday
next, when I might attend and be heard.
I decline to appear before the commit
tee, because I will not consent to a pal
pable violation of the constitution and
laws. lf, as on recent occasions, I am com
pelted by force to witness such scenes, 1
can at least withhold from them my sanc
tion, both express and implied.
The resolution admits the legality of
my . election and return, but proposes to in
quire whether I have not forfeited my seat
before my admission into the House. The
grounds of such forfeiture are not speci
fied in the resolution, aid I can only infer
them from the remarks of the original mu.
ver of the resolution, T. B. M'El wee. As
set forth by him, they consist in non-user,
mis-user, contempt of the House by cal
ling it an illegal body—the offspring of a
mob; and for sundry personal impropri
eties. No constituthonal disqualification
was or is aileged, and for none other can
the House, without an illegal exercise of
arbitrary power, prevent a member elect
from taking his seat. Expulsion for good
cause, after admission, stands on different
grounds, and is authorized by the Consti
tution.
I think it will trouble the committee to
find a precedent of the declared forfeiture
for non-user of an elective representative
office. For two whole sessions the mi
nority in the British Parliament absent—
ed themselves from the House. Yet
neither the King, the speaker, nor the ma
'jority dare to exercise the high handed
tyranny now attempted by what is called
the House of Representatives of Pernisyl
.
'anti'.
That certain public, executive or minis- 1
teriai offices may be forfeited for non user
in hnsiand rp n. pa...amount
Constitution exists, is true. The business
'col several departments of the governmet
could not otherwise be transacted. But
it must Ibe a continuing non-user. It
would be too late to declare the forfeiture"
after the officer had taken possession of
his office and was ready to discharge its
duties. The forfeiture is a remedy against
public inconvenience, and not a punish
ment upon an oftender. But in constitu•
tional governments no such forfeiture
takes place, except for the causes and in
the mode pointed out in the constitution
itself.
In the present case the majority - did not
seem to consider the public business as
suffering by my Asence, nor claim a right
unknown to the constitution, to forfeit my
seat; else they would have declared it va
cant before the adjournment. and given
my constituents a new election during the
vacation, so that they might be represen•
ted in the present session. No intimation
of a vacancy; no step to supply it was ta
ken until I appeared to take the oath and
use the office. The House, therefore,
seems rather anxious to create than. ta , RP•
ply a vacancy.
I need hardly notice the allegation of
the mis user of an officer, which I have
been prevented from using at all.
The right to eitlutle a member elect fur
speaking or writing contemptuously of the
House or proceedings, is a novel and
dangerous position. Until a member elect
has taken the requisite oaths he can no
more participate in proceedings of the
e
i 4)
'II u , nor is he any more subject to its
jun non than a private citizen. Indi-1
vidua s may be punished by the House tor
corrupt attempts upon its integrity, by at
tempting to bribe its members, or foe dis.
turbing and interrupting its proceedings
as the case of the arcember mob, but not
for any written or printed comments ors
its proceedings, however severe. —The
sixth section of the ninth article (the De
claration of Rights) of the Constitution, de
Blares that "%le printing, press shall be
free to every person, who undertakes to ex
ermine the proceedings of the Legislature
or any branch of Government, and no
law shall ever be made to restrain the
right thereof.".
Any thing which I may have published,
therefore, is not subject to your supervis
ion, if the constitution be yet considered
as existing.
If I were an admitted member, and
should derneam-alself indecorously and
disorderly towards that body, the House
has the power of expulsion. And if cal
ling it an 'illegally organized body—the
offspring of a mob,' (as was contended in
debate,) be sufficient cause ".for expulsion
I think I may safely promise to furnish an
I excuse for that act soon after my admis
sion. I do consider the 'Hopkins House'
a 'usurping' body; hut like all other-usur
pers having possession of the Government
de facto:, its acts will be binding for good
or evil on the state. Henceimylconstituents .7reu, Goods.l
have thought proper to ask me to take my
seat, and attempt to moderate an evil
which is now without remedy, lAMBS SAXTON, JR.
If the committee should occupy gte _
ground pointed out by the mover of 'the
resolution, and sit in judgment upon the
decency and morality of my conduct, I
must still further object to the tribunal:
I mean no disrespect to the committee;
for a majority of them I feel a high regard
—but the whole question on their report
will be again in the power of the major ity
of the House, and I cannot agree to ad:
mit the intellectual, moral, or habitaal
competency of Thos. B. McElwee, his com
peers co-adjutors and followers to decide
a question of decency and morals.
For myself personally I feel no anxiety
for the result of this inquiry, or the reasons '
which may be given for it, and to put
which upon the Journal I presume was the
chief object of this proceeding. My only
anxiety is that the Constitution may not
be further violated, and that the people
may yet have some ground co hopeAthat
LIBERTY, although deeply wounded, may
not expire.
I owe my acknowledgments to the com
mitten for their prompt attention to this
business and trust it may be speedily fin
ished.
With proper respect,
Your obdt. servant.

QUESTION.
An animal of a nameless kind,
Is thus described, its length to find,—
It measur'd at a public sale,
The head nine inches, and the tail,
As long (prostrated on its bed)
As hall its body, and its head.
Its body's length when measur'd, doth,
Its head and tail just equal both.
Now,try your learning, genius, strength
And tell the animal's whole length.
A STUDENT.
For the Journal
ANS WER.
The nameless thing, which sold so well,
Whose length of head alone you tell,
;,‘„ • heal eleven
Less two, his tail was twenty
His body then a yard must be,
Just snout and gills, and tail you see;
Its entire length was but three feet,
If doubl'd head and tail to meet.
When open'd, like a jack knife out,
Was just six feet, I have no doubt.
I've tried all rules its name to know;
Was it not a LocoFoco ?

Poetry— They raise regular-built poets
out west. As a specimen, we copy the
following from the Kalamazoo Gazette,
being the first three lines of an Ode to the
%luon, sent to that paper for publication:
Thou pale resplendent orb,
Thou lookest like a huge gobb
Of maple sugars"
There is a sweetness of conception here
rarely equalled.

NEW YORK SEMI-WEEKLY WHIG.
The first number of the SEMI-WEEK
LY edition of THE NEW YORK WHIG is
herewith submitted to the public. It will be
regularly published liedcelorth every WED
NESDAY and SATURDAY afternoons, on al
sheet of the size of the DAILY Whig and
half the size of the Weekly, and forwarded
by the earliest mails to its Patrons. It will
contain all the matter of the Daily Whig
except the Advertisements, and led afforded
at the low price of THREE DOLLARS per
annum in advance. It is believed that this is
the cheapest Semi-Weekly paper in the
country.
The - character of THE NEW YORK WHIG
—Daily and Weekly—is now widply knOwn.
It has been published about sixteen months,
and in that brief period has acquired a wide
circulation, and, we trust, a fair standing
among its contemporaries. It aims to pre
sent in a medium sheet an amount of reading
matter fully equal to the average of the
Great Dailies of New .Yojlc and our other
Commercial cities. Its ctffitents will com
prise Literature, Politics and General Intel
ligence, in about equal proportions. In the
Literary Department, no great pretensions
are made to originality, but the best reposi
tories of Foreign and American Literature
are open to its conductors; and they endea
vor to select therefrom a varied and interes
ting banquet. In General li.telligfnue, we
hope to be neither behind nor inferior 'to our
immediate cotemporaries. In Politics, our
journal will be all that its name purpqrts--.-
fearlessly, zealously, and we trust efficiently,
WHIG. Experienced pens are enlisted sn
its service, and we trust it will render good
service to the Country in the advocacy of
Sound Principles and Good Measures and
the fea.ilets exposure of the iniquities, cor
ruptions and ruinous tendencies of Loco-Fo
coism.
