Upon taking a view of our interna! fitua-ion, he obfei vcd, although patty rage may. rot be done away it may be laid its irnxifin is patt. And although the gentleman from New-York (Mr. T.

It is- fome time, Mr. Chairman, fince a member of this Houfe amlfundry printers throughout the U-rited States have been amerced and imprifon-ed to appeal'e the vengeance of an unconstitutional fedition aft, merely for puhlifhing their own fentiments, which happened to be unpalatable to the then exifling adininillia-tion li is (bine time, fir, fince we hare feen judges who ought to have been converted into political pattizans, and like executive miffunaries psonouncing political harangues throughout the United States It is (cm: time fir, fince we have feen the zealous judge, (loop from the bench to lojk out for more victims fot judicial vengeance I It is fome time (ince we have L- the fame judicial impetuofity drive ftom the bar, the mod rcfpeflablc counfel, who humanely propofed to intcrpofe between afriendlefs and uprotected man, and the judicial vengeance to which he was doomed It is fome time, fir, fince we have feen the fame judicial zeal extending the proviliuns of ihe (edition act by difcovering that it hadjjrifdiclionofthe lex non fcripta, or common law It is ibme time, (ince we have feen the chief executive magiflrate dooming to humiliation in and afiies' a Etcat portion of the American people Ysj, fir, thefe terrific fcenes are paft. Thefe noify declamations, and this judicial zeal, are huflied into filence by the audible pronunciation of the public will. He faid, we may even indulge the hope Mr. Chairman, that our pulpits will not much longer be converted into political forum that the meek and humble teachers of the chriftian faith, inflcad of ftirring up all the angry and deltiuclive paflions of the human mind, will ere long, r.nce more condefcend, to teach thofe precepts bf humility, forbearance and toleration, taught them by divine preceptor.

Adli.m r. iitui.cn I February. xo, through the whole conllituiion to enable him to form his opinion upon this qutftion, for fear thcie might be in fome hidden coiner of it, fome provilion, which, might rtetuon-llratc ihe unconflitutionality of the prefent bill and if fo, although he fliould lament fuch a provifion, he would inflantly give up the bill. Hut his refcarcheJ had terminated in a different refult. He laid he found from the general character of the conflitution, that the general will was its btfis the general good its object arid the fundamental principle for effecting this object, was the refponlihility of all public cither mediately or immediately to the people.

He faid the context of the conflituiion would demonllrate the two fitft points which he begged to read. We the people of the United in order to form a more perfect Union, eflablifli Jiiflice, infure domcfttc Tranquility, provide for the Common Defence, promote the General Welfare, and lecure the Bleflingj of Liberty to Otirfclvei and our pollcrity, Do ordain an 1 eflablifli this Conllituiion for the United Statesof America." Here we lind the conflitution founded upon the will of the people and the object declared to he the Rood of the people. Through the whole body of the conflitution may be difcerncd the refponSbility of all public agents, cither mediately, or immediately, to the people. This refponfibility refulu, id, from the divifion of authority into different departments zd, From afpe-cification and limitation of the authorities of all and each of the departments 3d, From periodical appointments of (he public a-gents. The lirfl claufe declares there (hall be a Congrcfs, to whom the bufinefi of leg.

illation is confided. This Congrefs it to confill, of a Iloule of Reprefentativcs to be cholen by the people immediately, and rcl-ponlible to them at the end of evety two yeais and a Senate to be chofen by the iegiflaiurcs of the different dates, who are chofen by the people one third of the Sen-ators to be chofen every two years, and rcfponfible at the end of every fix years. The Executive power is veiled in- a i'reli-dent who is chofen by electors who are cbo. fen for that cxprefs putpofe by the people, and rcfponfible at the end of- evety four years. The Prcfident may be confidered as immediately refpaniible to the people, although cholen through the medium of electors becaufe it is found in practice, that the electors are conilrained to avow the vote they intend to give before they are chofen, and the people have generally made their e-lections with a view to that object.

Thus then are formed two departments, their powers fpecttied and defined, the times for exercifing their powers fixed, and indeed a complete organization for the execution of their rclpcctive powers without the intervention of any law lor that purpofe. A third department, to wit, the Judiciary department, is ftill wanting. Is that formed by the conflitution How is that to be formed It is not formed by the conftitutinn. It is only declared that there (hall be Inch a dc-partment and it i directed to be formed by the other two departments, who owe a ref-ponlibility to the people. Here there arife9an important difference of opinion between the different fides of this houfe.

It is contended on one fide that the judiciary depaitment is formed by the conflitution itlelf. It is contended on the other fide, that the conllituiion does no more than to declare that iheie fliall be a judiciary department, and directs, that it (hall be formed by the other two departments under certain modifications. Article 3. fee. I.

the conflitution has thefe words, The judicial power of the United States fhall be veiled in ene fupreme court and fuch inferior courts, as congreft may from time to time ordain and eftab-lifh." Here then the power to ordain, and eflablifli inferior courts is given to Congrefs in the mod unqualified ierm, and alio to ordain and eflablifli, one fupreme court." The only limitation upon the power of congrefs in thisclaufe, confiftsin the number of supreme courts to be ellablilhed the limitation is to the number of one, although that is an affirmative and not a negative The number of juJges the affigna-tion of duties the fixing compenfations the fixing the times when, and places where the courts fliall cxercife their functions, arc left to the entire difcietion of congrefs. The fpiiit as well as the words of the conflitution, are completely fatisfied, provided one fupreme court be eflablifiied. Hence, when all ihcfe cfi'eotia! points in the organization arid formation of courts is entrufled 10 the unlimited dilctetion of congrefs, it cannot be (aid, that the courts are formed by the conllituiion. Tor further ref-lraints thereloie upon the difcretion of congrclsi the remaining part of the lame feilion mufl be confuted. Here he begged leave to remark, that he had often felt a veneration for the wifdom of the Cages, who formed this conflitution, confidcring the difficulties they had to encounter, reiulting from the various local prejudices, and local interefls of the different pans ot the United States, and the vail variety of opinions, which the fubject prefented, it was alrnofl wonderful to conceive how they fhould have hit upon a fyflem fo admirably calculated to protect and to promote the general interefts, when ad-miniftered according to its original meaning and intention, lie could not go lb tar, as to lay it was perfect.

He admitted, like other human productions, it was (lamped with the common lallibiliiy of man. That he wifhed however to fee no radical changes in its principles. He wifhed to hand it duwn to poltcriiy with thofe amendments only, which experience fliould lugged, and which would grow out ot the continually varying ftateof ihe nation. He faid it was not only remarkable for the wifdom ot its arrangements, but the correct and technical mode of expreliijn. The part of the feclion now to he esamined, was an example of the juflice of both thefe remarks.

The words are, "The judges, both of the fupreme and inferior courts, Hull their offices during uuring goot oinaviour, relates merely to the executive department. The term hold, is the common technical word uied to convey the idea of tenure. Tenure requires two parties. The one granting, the other holding cr receiving the grant. Let the enquiiy be made, of whom d.

the judges hold The conllimtion furnifhes the anfwer, of the Piefident. One of the mod obvious rules in the conftruction of inflrtiments of writing is, that the whole of it mufl be taken together, and not one patticular part by ufclf. The following words will be found in the id lection of the article of the conflitution. And he, to wit the Prefident fhall nominate and by and with the advice and conlent of the fenate fhall appoint am-balTadors, other public nitnifUrs and con-fuls, judges sf the luprenie court, and all other offices of the United States, whole appointments are not herein otherwifc provided for, and which (hall be cftablifhed by law." In the 3d feclion of the fame aiticle are thefe words and (hall to wit, the Prefi-dent, commiflion all the officers of the United States." Thefe three fentences contain the relationfhip between the executive and judiciary departments fo far as rcfpcfls the objects of the prefentlifcufTion. Remainder of Mr.
