He defended the character ol renter ot land Irom tlio clmrgo that had been made ngaiusl them of a want of independence. He said, God belli. the rich, tho poor can take care ot themselves. Ho was not in the habit of speaking ora-toricnllv, and hence when he spoke it was sometimes little better than a grunt. This he attributed to his education. He did not know but Congress should not only give the laud to the actual settler, but build acab- in nnd supply linn with two years, provisions, Mr. tt. hoped that with these remarks the resolutions- would be referred to the Committee on Revolutionary Claims! Mr. Myers otl'ered the following amend ment: RrsoleetL Thut the selluiL' of the public lauds to spec ulators is unjust to the t filers T the soil, and injurious to the prosperily of tho country; we are therefore opposed to the sale of atud' tho public domain, except to actual settlers. .

Mr. Whitman moved tn add as uu additional section' Provided, That lb" Legislature may at anytime alter or repeal this charter. A division was called for: Messrs. Wllilmnn, Block- soin, Burns, Howard, Dyer uud Wilson voted iu the atbriuiitive. Mr. Whitman said that as in a full Senate only six senntnr hud voted for this principle, lie shoulil not trouble the Senate aeain on tb fmliiect Mr. Chase said that ho did vote for the section, be cause he entertained the opinion that without such a provision the Legislature had the right at any time to alter or repeal a cbnrler.

Mr. Whitman said thut if tie understood the position of the Democracy of Ohio, tln-y did not endorse the Demorracy of a singlo judge of the Supreme Court of the United States; they did not believo there wns a siiiL'le Democrat niiiomi them. It is tnie, they were Democrats when they w em put there, but they have changed since. He spoke nf the late Mr. Justice Sin ry as having heeu a pemoenu wune in nnrvuru ooi-Icl'c.

Perhaps if the noimtor from Fuirlield were elevated tn ihe sumo high place, he, too, would find reason to rhniiL'o fi-om llie ernir ot his wny.

Mr. Hutchius, from the Select Committee on Public Printing, reported buck tho several propositions that had been submiltod to t limn upon that subje d ; suid that the committee had been unable to agree as to which of the bids was ihe lowerd, iu consequence of the ditWeut construction to which the bids were subject. Ha siuted thut the committee hud ugrced to report that the price paid ut the last session Was u fair one. and nsked thut the papers be luid ou the table, mid Ihe committee discharged from any further cousi. deration of the subject. Mr. Whiteley moved to lay the report on the table. Mr. Hawkins moved to add, " and that the bids be printed." Mr, Whiteley asked for a division of the question. The question beius to lav ou the tuble. the aves am! noes wore demanded, oud' resulted, uyes Si, noes 11. So the report wus laid on the table. I ho question being upon ordering the bids printed, Mr. Hawkins addressed the House. I jud-'efruiu this division of the .ni.tW.i. il.ui it b. the pluu.suio of the gentlemen thut lliey shull not be printed. Five or six'dnys ago, the House determined 'hat we should not have the informal ion contained iu the papers submitted to the committee. There is no report of the committee ou paper. The committee luv Blinked the respousibilitv . I tun not disposed to (.lurk it ut) hell'. 'I am hi liner oi' yiviug tlie work to the lowest bidder. I saw that those ieiitlemeu bv not reporting would direct this alluir, nud I said so. There was au understanding that all ihe committee hud to do wus to report buck the bids, The other day they could not do this. I asked them then for ihe iufoniintioii they had in their possession, that while they were making up their minds, we could make up uur. They refused to give it. And uow the subject is to be postponed, uud postponed, and here ou your desk. Mr. Spcuker, are bundles of documents, uud where ure they to be printed. And hero upon this committee is u niuii who proteases to know all about the business, who, a few diiya ago was complaining that there were m ;n goitre ubout, and professing to bo printers, who, from Iheir iguoruuee, wero n ilisgrnce to tho profess-ion, uud yei nt cuuuot tell which of these bids are the lowest ! This is n weighty business. They hive had five or six days to look into uud return four or live letters thai have come to their hands, uud i hey have no opinion to give upon iheir contents. Now I ask that these letters lie printed. I ask it us a favor. If you, gentlemen, have any friend to whom yon desire to give ilii-t little job, let him have it, It will do him no harm. Now do let us have this small amount of information. Gentlemen, face the music. Vote down tho prono- sition to print, if you dare! You have been so Jong luilchiii" have brought forth u dead progeny, and now you dcire to hide it. These bids shull be print- ed. I will see tu it. Gentlemen may talk about not being able to come to n conclusion. It is nil n pretence. To a practical printer, ns is ut least one of tbe commiitee, there cnu be no such difficulty. Mr. Bresliu rose tu nu explanation, Ho rend a portion of one of the bids, which he said was nmhi-'iioiis. 1 charged its authors, Messrs. Scott & Hascoiii. with ulleuipts at deception, iu reirard to folding, &e. Mr. Fainliild inquired if the gentleman understood book hi ml in li . Mr. Bresliu said he did not. Mr. Fairchild denied the conclusions of Mr. Bresliu, regard to the attempt to deceive. Mr. Hawkins inuuired if Mr. B. renl from tbe lust letter continuing the bid of Messrs. Scott & Huscoui. Mr. Bresliu Maid lie did not. Mr. Hawkins proposed to rend Ihe bid. Mr. Whiteley rose to a uuestioii of order. "The gentleman bus no right to mud documents thut huve been laid on the table. " Speaker. If the ijeutlemnii insists upon his point of order, I will vote to lake the resolutions from ihe table. Mr. Hawkins said: The geiitlemuu want to pre vent me from rending bills to t ie House. 1 will rend thein. Mr. Bresliu mud from tho wrong bid, uud he kut w it. There wu another. Why did" he not rend that I .Mr. Whiteley insisted on his point of order. Speaker. The nao'-r when laid ou the table cannot be rend, but papers iu possession of the Clerk, may, for the sake ot public iustice, bo read by llie Clerk. Mr. Long moved that the House adjourn. The Speaker decided the motion out of order. Mr. Hawkins having the lloor, Mr. Whitelev rose to another point of order. The paper cninmt be taken from the table without a vote ot (he House. fi Jr"t"r n'd mi;.'ht bo rend by the Clerk. Mr. Hawkins said he hud n squint at the bills. Mr. Metlnry had two bids, us well ns Scott and Buscoin. I want the printing to go to the lowest bidder. I now call for the rending ot Ihe bids, lor I want to mako n .qieecu ou litem. Mr. Whitelev raised n noint nf order. Mr. Hawkins said he was surprised nt the ennrae of one oi uie gentlemen (Mr. H-itchiiis) ut least. He -.-.-enu-ii in nrai nuxioUH lo let tlio printing go lo the lowest bidder. He became n member of tho select committee to whom it wns referred. He has boon unable to ascer tain who is the lowest bidder; hut he could discover that the price pa;d lust winter was a very fair price. Now, why do these irentlemen talk about two bids hv Scott At Hascom? Ha not Samuel Mednry two bid also, the one a little lower th in tbe other I Mr. Roedter inquired who did tho priming of last year t Mr. Hawkins did not know. He knew thut in 1810, the hrst sen-nut he wus iu the Le-'Mulurc. Mr. Modai-y had received nbuul twenty thousand dollars for tho public printing; und thai tlie next season, (he sum wa mdurcd some nine thou did dollars, and yet Mr. Meilin y received a fair m ice for dobi? llie work. The Speaker d. cided tim point of order raised by .Mr. vYiilieiey. He said that auy pnpers on the table could bo rend to the House, provided no exception wa taken to lite reading; but, if exceptions am taken, the question imiv be nettled by vote of the House. Mr. Hawkins called for ihe reading of the bids. Objections being made, Mr. Hawkins continued. He wanted I bran bills printed. He wanted Ihe matter to he known by the people. They had a right In know, and be wns determined they should. There is a disposition tn smo ther investigation. know thai tips Hung is tu bi postponed llie printing is lo take its course! nnd, ut the end of Hm sejiou, nu appropriation is to bo made to pay Bitinuel Mednry. .ow, 1 would rather these gentlemen would conn up to the set air h at once.

Now, gentlemen, Mr. Modary is to do this printing. I feel it, and have made up my mind to seu it done. Gentlemen, come uu with your m-tolntiou. I want to see it done.

And in like milliner, that they set upart and donate tifty thousand Kipiaru miles of unappropriated wild laud for the use and belietit of the five colored people of the United States of America; that 100 acres be grunted out of said lust mentioned html to each free colored settlor tit osl of survey, ns uu everlasting heritugo lo them and their posterity.

Mr. Hendricks said thai, as it apptared to be a leisure time, he won hi make a few remarks. He defended the character ol renter ot land Irom tlio clmrgo that had been made ngaiusl them of a want of independence. He said, God belli. the rich, tho poor can take care ot themselves. Ho was not in the habit of speaking ora-toricnllv, and hence when he spoke it was sometimes little better than a grunt. This he attributed to his education. He did not know but Congress should not only give the laud to the actual settler, but build acab- in nnd supply linn with two years, provisions, Mr. tt. hoped that with these remarks the resolutions- would be referred to the Committee on Revolutionary Claims! Mr. Myers otl'ered the following amend ment: RrsoleetL Thut the selluiL' of the public lauds to spec ulators is unjust to the t filers T the soil, and injurious to the prosperily of tho country; we are therefore opposed to the sale of atud' tho public domain, except to actual settlers. .

Mr. Whitman moved tn add as uu additional section' Provided, That lb" Legislature may at anytime alter or repeal this charter. A division was called for: Messrs. Wllilmnn, Block- soin, Burns, Howard, Dyer uud Wilson voted iu the atbriuiitive. Mr. Whitman said that as in a full Senate only six senntnr hud voted for this principle, lie shoulil not trouble the Senate aeain on tb fmliiect Mr. Chase said that ho did vote for the section, be cause he entertained the opinion that without such a provision the Legislature had the right at any time to alter or repeal a cbnrler.

It is tnie, they were Democrats when they w em put there, but they have changed since. He spoke nf the late Mr. Justice Sin ry as having heeu a pemoenu wune in nnrvuru ooi-Icl'c.

In his inst experience, he had seen the German documents le a druir uiiiut the hand ol members, He did nut think it worked well iu practice.

Mr. Hutchius, from the Select Committee on Public Printing, reported buck tho several propositions that had been submiltod to t limn upon that subje d ; suid that the committee had been unable to agree as to which of the bids was ihe lowerd, iu consequence of the ditWeut construction to which the bids were subject. Ha siuted thut the committee hud ugrced to report that the price paid ut the last session Was u fair one. and nsked thut the papers be luid ou the table, mid Ihe committee discharged from any further cousi. deration of the subject. Mr. Whiteley moved to lay the report on the table. Mr. Hawkins moved to add, " and that the bids be printed." Mr, Whiteley asked for a division of the question. The question beius to lav ou the tuble. the aves am! noes wore demanded, oud' resulted, uyes Si, noes 11. So the report wus laid on the table. I ho question being upon ordering the bids printed, Mr. Hawkins addressed the House. I jud-'efruiu this division of the .ni.tW.i. il.ui it b. the pluu.suio of the gentlemen thut lliey shull not be printed. Five or six'dnys ago, the House determined 'hat we should not have the informal ion contained iu the papers submitted to the committee. There is no report of the committee ou paper. The committee luv Blinked the respousibilitv . I tun not disposed to (.lurk it ut) hell'. 'I am hi liner oi' yiviug tlie work to the lowest bidder. I saw that those ieiitlemeu bv not reporting would direct this alluir, nud I said so. There was au understanding that all ihe committee hud to do wus to report buck the bids, The other day they could not do this. I asked them then for ihe iufoniintioii they had in their possession, that while they were making up their minds, we could make up uur. They refused to give it. And uow the subject is to be postponed, uud postponed, and here ou your desk. Mr. Spcuker, are bundles of documents, uud where ure they to be printed. And hero upon this committee is u niuii who proteases to know all about the business, who, a few diiya ago was complaining that there were m ;n goitre ubout, and professing to bo printers, who, from Iheir iguoruuee, wero n ilisgrnce to tho profess-ion, uud yei nt cuuuot tell which of these bids are the lowest ! This is n weighty business. They hive had five or six days to look into uud return four or live letters thai have come to their hands, uud i hey have no opinion to give upon iheir contents. Now I ask that these letters lie printed. I ask it us a favor. If you, gentlemen, have any friend to whom yon desire to give ilii-t little job, let him have it, It will do him no harm. Now do let us have this small amount of information. Gentlemen, face the music. Vote down tho prono- sition to print, if you dare! You have been so Jong luilchiii" have brought forth u dead progeny, and now you dcire to hide it. These bids shull be print- ed. I will see tu it. Gentlemen may talk about not being able to come to n conclusion. It is nil n pretence. To a practical printer, ns is ut least one of tbe commiitee, there cnu be no such difficulty. Mr. Bresliu rose tu nu explanation, Ho rend a portion of one of the bids, which he said was nmhi-'iioiis. 1 charged its authors, Messrs. Scott & Hascoiii. with ulleuipts at deception, iu reirard to folding, &e. Mr. Fainliild inquired if the gentleman understood book hi ml in li . Mr. Bresliu said he did not. Mr. Fairchild denied the conclusions of Mr. Bresliu, regard to the attempt to deceive. Mr. Hawkins inuuired if Mr. B. renl from tbe lust letter continuing the bid of Messrs. Scott & Huscoui. Mr. Bresliu Maid lie did not. Mr. Hawkins proposed to rend Ihe bid. Mr. Whiteley rose to a uuestioii of order. "The gentleman bus no right to mud documents thut huve been laid on the table. " Speaker. If the ijeutlemnii insists upon his point of order, I will vote to lake the resolutions from ihe table. Mr. Hawkins said: The geiitlemuu want to pre vent me from rending bills to t ie House. 1 will rend thein. Mr. Bresliu mud from tho wrong bid, uud he kut w it. There wu another. Why did" he not rend that I .Mr. Whiteley insisted on his point of order. Speaker. The nao'-r when laid ou the table cannot be rend, but papers iu possession of the Clerk, may, for the sake ot public iustice, bo read by llie Clerk. Mr. Long moved that the House adjourn. The Speaker decided the motion out of order. Mr. Hawkins having the lloor, Mr. Whitelev rose to another point of order. The paper cninmt be taken from the table without a vote ot (he House. fi Jr"t"r n'd mi;.'ht bo rend by the Clerk. Mr. Hawkins said he hud n squint at the bills. Mr. Metlnry had two bids, us well ns Scott and Buscoin. I want the printing to go to the lowest bidder. I now call for the rending ot Ihe bids, lor I want to mako n .qieecu ou litem. Mr. Whitelev raised n noint nf order. Mr. Hawkins said he was surprised nt the ennrae of one oi uie gentlemen (Mr. H-itchiiis) ut least. He -.-.-enu-ii in nrai nuxioUH lo let tlio printing go lo the lowest bidder. He became n member of tho select committee to whom it wns referred. He has boon unable to ascer tain who is the lowest bidder; hut he could discover that the price pa;d lust winter was a very fair price. Now, why do these irentlemen talk about two bids hv Scott At Hascom? Ha not Samuel Mednry two bid also, the one a little lower th in tbe other I Mr. Roedter inquired who did tho priming of last year t Mr. Hawkins did not know. He knew thut in 1810, the hrst sen-nut he wus iu the Le-'Mulurc. Mr. Modai-y had received nbuul twenty thousand dollars for tho public printing; und thai tlie next season, (he sum wa mdurcd some nine thou did dollars, and yet Mr. Meilin y received a fair m ice for dobi? llie work. The Speaker d. cided tim point of order raised by .Mr. vYiilieiey. He said that auy pnpers on the table could bo rend to the House, provided no exception wa taken to lite reading; but, if exceptions am taken, the question imiv be nettled by vote of the House. Mr. Hawkins called for ihe reading of the bids. Objections being made, Mr. Hawkins continued. He wanted I bran bills printed. He wanted Ihe matter to he known by the people. They had a right In know, and be wns determined they should. There is a disposition tn smo ther investigation. know thai tips Hung is tu bi postponed llie printing is lo take its course! nnd, ut the end of Hm sejiou, nu appropriation is to bo made to pay Bitinuel Mednry. .ow, 1 would rather these gentlemen would conn up to the set air h at once.

Mr. Hawkins. Then come up In the scratch, Olfer you resolution, nud I will vote for or ngninst it, u my conscience shall dictate. Mr. Whiteley. I did ntiW such a resolution, and the gentleman very courteously voted it into the hands of n committee, and have not seen it sim e. Mr. H iwkiu. I think not. sir. Now, gentlemen, Mr. Modary is to do this printing. I feel it, and have made up my mind to seu it done. Gentlemen, come uu with your m-tolntiou. I want to see it done. Better so than h ivo il go mi an it is. Bvenud bve, the hill for the printing for the scs-don will come, nt auy price that Mr. Medary chooses to ask. Lot us huve that business fixed. If gentlemen ure determined to h tve the printing done by Mr. Medary. If ihey will oiler a resolution I will give way j if the geittl "in in from Cincinnati will draw up th- resolution, I will spenk until he gels it ready. Mr. Roedter asked leava to submit n msoliition. The Cli iir decided the resolution out of order. Mr. Sp u-ue nddressed the Chair.
