bore, such as is made lor Artesian Wclis when
it reaches a 'stream of water arrests "it and
diverts it toward the surface. The water

conclusion. Has a political party, he asked,
whenever it accedes to power, by whatever
combinations, the right to pass resolutions
which its opponents in legislative trusts are
bound to obey; or, if prevented from obeying
by their conscience and consistency, to re-
sign their positions ? Such a course of pro-
ceeding, he thought, would introduce changes
radically affecting thc organization of the
Senate, and be incompatible with the objects
of its institution, as the representative brfcneh
of the sovereignty of the States. The Senate
would lose every characteristic of permanence
as political fluctuations might transfer power
from one party to another. This would
operate especially against the Democratic
party, for their opponents do not recognize
the right to instruct, and the duty to obey, or
the obligation to resign.
