House that he had dcposited there his rea-
sons for signing the bill, without stating
what they were. The House, invariably
treating him tvilll drferencc, amended my
resolution by calling for a copy iiistcad of
the original; when the paper came, Imoved
its rcft-rs.-nee to a select committee which re-
ported a strong reprobation of Mr. T_vler’s
proceeding in the case, and a resolution pro-
testing against it as a precedent. This re-
port of the committee could be called up for

an argunicnt against the sections rcquiring
that the selections for tnrmteis of the House
