Mr. Paxsunzrr : I feel no little reluctance in addressing the Senate on this subject.— Ifiny owni;fee.lings were consulted, I should certainly prefer to be silent, and to leave to others moire able, more 'eloquent, and more - experiencell iwdebate, the task of exposing the inconsistenCies, and follies, and, the ru inous effects of the measure now before the Senate. piiough has indeed been'already said to prtfvent its passage, if truth Were to prevail ; I am in strong hopes that it will y.et. :lot defeated; for it seems.!noiv so poor, that there is none to do it reverence— not one to; raise his voice in its favor. But I cannot suffer a vote to be aken till I have exprekied f‘•my hostility to its passage, and said sometjing in defence of the industry of my State,'which it is calculated to ruin: A come here the representative of a State deeply interested in the development ofher resources,: and in festering and protecting the indukty of her cifizens i a State which has eipended more blood and more treasure in The conitmon defence than any State in the Union; a State that has never aSked am favorfroni the Union,. and which has received as little benefit from it as any one in it ; even the fort which -wad built for the defence ofZher city, with the money of her own citizens,- las been suffered to go to de cay by the general government; .a State proverbial for the democracy of her sons— so much io that no democratic' President was ever elected 'without her rote; nay, one which pevtir gave a- vote against a demo cranc.candidate for the presidency, until she believed tl.4tre. ono a settled design to desert her dearly ;cherished interests. You carp therefore, Mr. Presidnt, ima gine my stirprise when I find our time-lion ed commoliwealth- charged with want of de mocracy iti her opposition to this bilL. From our end ofhe wide domain to, the other she doe. , opitost. it; and if. I fail to show 'that she-has abinniant cause, it will not be for the want of defects in the bill itself.

It is a less'fin she learned from the fathers of the republic, and which was practised with uniform uitd unvarying consistency by all her early settlers. Her sons have nht, and I trust in qod never will prove recreatit to the, wholesome lessons of their ancestry. - It is to thii" practice' and to these lessons that she owes her present prosperity and faille.
