to rnjscll I hare thought propel (o convene sn extraordin-
ary tesiion of Congress to meet at ''Washington on the
14th of November. He hai however deetnid it unneces-
sary to stale these reasons to the Representatives of the
people. '
In bis message to the tiro Houses he' exhibited no Tttatc
of circumstances uhich rendered the assembling cf'Con-
gress previous to the time fixed by lxw necessary.. No
vuaugc ill mc pvsiurc ui puuuc auairo uui lucn as were
conlcmpUtedhad occurred. No great danger was alh!dg-
ed as threatening or anticipated. No great act of public
policy was submitted as demanding the Immediate and
prompt action of tbc legislative department of the govern-
ment. Why then was this extra session commenced?
Why was the Legislature called together almost a month
earlier than the time fixed by law to the great expense of
l bo. President has not deigned lo explain but
.!. 1 !.! r .1 . j
mc caquircra iu ueier
his conduct concerning
government it is easy lo assirm
the real cause. It was deemed necessary by him in order
to effect the ultimate removal. While tbc members ofCon-
gress were reluctantly assembling at the place designated
anouicr proclamation is isaueu convening mc regular session
at the same place. This last proclamation must be louled
upon u the endeavor of the Executive to wrest from Con-
gress Iheir control over the place of Iheir meeting; and by
priority ofclaim forcTCr lo exclude the Congress from any
jurisdiction over the matter. Against such usurpation
the undersigned enter their solemn protest to such claims
tbey express their unhesitating and indignant opposition.
If the President has the exclusive control oier the matter
why does the Constitution authorise the two Houses to
adjourn to any tlher place than lo the one at which they
arc then silling! Nay so entirely is the President direst-
ed or control al sucli lime over the subject that upon the
action of Congress thereon he had not even the control of
thereto power; and this is the only subject of legislative
action over which this control does not exist. If the Exe-
cutive power on this subject-is exclusive of Congress while
it is in session why is it that the clause of the Constitution-
Which requires the President and heads of departments
to remain at the seal of government make the exception
when their removal is authorized by the permission of Con-
gress! Could it be made plainer than by this exception it-
self that the frainers of the Constitution contemplated
inai me wnoic power over the subject was vested in Uon
gress ifin session and that ilwas only delegated to otherfnot-peneluieuch a cobweb veil of pretended charity and
functionaries of the government on the happening of some
emergency during a lime or war and during tho recess of
Congress of so sudjen and threatening a character that
the adrisc and deliberation of the legislative branch of the
government could not be had thereon. But this danger
should be obvious impending and undoubted to justify Ex
cculivc control over the matter; and the meeting of Con-
gress divests him of all power thereon.
The next act in this sad drama presents us with the Exe-
cutive order of the 10th of December addressed to Cap-
laiis Smith and Chandler (persons unknown lo the gov-
ernment in any official character) directing them "lore-
more or cause lo be removed 'from the city of Austin to
the town of Washington all the public archives and gov-
ernment stores there how remaining of every description
whatever." In a confidential communication accompany
ing mis order Messrs. a-nith and Uhandler arc informed
by the President of the exasperation of the public mind on
the subject of removal and Ihey are directed to raise an
armed bodj of men in order that this exasperation may not
present any difficulty to the execution oflhe order. There
armed forces are to be raised under pretence of an Indian
.expedition i he number ot men lo be raised and tli. man-
ner of eflVctmg the object is lefl entirely lo their sound
judgment and discretion. The strictcsl secrecy is enjoin-
ed; and tbey are significantly ordered to "be prepared to
act with efficiency arui not to be Ihtmrltdin thtir under-
taking." The appointed cHlie President undertook the ex-
ecution of the order with alacrity; fortunately however
for the country notwithstanding the secrecy of the move-
ment the object Has suspected by many who were called
upon lo join in the enterprise; and it should be staled for
the credit of our countrymen that as soon as the object
became known these patriotic citizens who had been dup-
ed into T -ntcrprise refused to assijt in the execution of
the illegalr or to unite in any undertaking which
threatened tv pjidurca civil war as it might lead them lo
imbrue their bands iif'the blood of their brethren. Most
of them returned to their homes and but about twenty re-
mained who were willing to endeavor lo carry out the or-
ders of the Executive. They.proc'eeded to Austin obtain-
ed some portion oflhe public 'properly and commenced
their return. They were pursued however by a portion of
the citizens of Travis were overtaken and the archives re-
stored to the place from which Ihey had been taken.
Such is the statement of the transaction as made by the
President; and from it the conclusion is irresistable that the
Executive of the nation and portion of its citizens are
igagcd in a. controversy involving iniporlajiUprjndpIes
and in which one or the other must be in the wi
It is to be hoped that the Congra"'will act as thc'pel&VjS
cater in the disagreement lo atccrtain and 'decide upon J'

rron&. ;
mum pa ij tuc uiauic is iu rest micr a iuu inTEsugauun
of the subject lo render unto Cesar Ihe things" thal-orp
Caesars and by decided and efficient action forever to put
an end lo this unnatural contest. It remains to examine
what wrong shall be attached lo the reasons urged by the
Executive in defence or the course be has pursued and how
far in bis communication to the House of Representatives
he has been able to suaUin himself by reason by law or
by authority. The undersigned n ill confine their atten-
tion entirely to the legality and correctness of the order lo
Messrs. Smith and Chandler and to a review of the argu- - u
mentor the Executive in his justification of lus measure.
Whatever authority the President may have had to di-
rect the remoral of Ihe archives and the heads of depart-
ments in the first instance and however those who refused
to yield obedience lo that order might have been looked up-
on as riolalois or lawlha course which the President has
since pursued hijsjMfated to elTecl an entire change in
the position of t'JPun ending parties so that the citizens
of Austin can non hold up for Iheir protection the broed
Aegis oflhe law andean successfully clsim to be contend-
ing In defence of the law while the President is exhibited
as seeking lo obtain improper ends by illegal means. Alow
this change has been brought about we will proceed to
show.
..The President in his communication to this body states
"that the original order for their removal (meaning the r-
ctmes) was given alatime when the country was actually
invaded and when crery man in Tcxas.'-'ating a knowledge
of the facts acquiesced in the prudence and necessity of
such a measure." This may have been true in part but it
is equally true that before the order was rcceired by the of-
ficer lo whom its execution was committed Ihe tnrasion as
styled by the language or innation had tost its threatening
and dreadful character and it was notoriously understood
Ihatlbeie was not a Mexican within the limits of the coun-
try. These facts were known lo the officers remaining at
the seat of government and if they were not as equally
well known to the President it Was because of his absence
front the point lo which duty called him. It subscqpently
came to his knowledge jet still he persisted. Hut the con-
fidential and constitutional adviser of the Executive -who
was directed to superintend the removal did not .enforce or
attempt to enforce the order on Ihe ground alledgcd by lh

tWo hare butsmall apaco'to devote to the Civilian of this
morning will merely remark that his nut to brine Gen.
Hamilton an the tapis was suspected while pondering over
the meaning of tho long a"rljclo in a number of last week's
Civilian predicaied it would seem on s passing compli-
ment paid that gentleman in ihe Times a ftiw days previ-
ous. In anavtcr to that article (evidently intended to "pro-
voke a discussion") vie stated our distaste to inuendoeaand
mysterious hints calculated to blacken tho character or a
public functionary without producing tho proofs (if any
there nere) ol guilt. We have known for some iimethat
Gen. Houston has in private conversations charged Gen.
Hamilton with malfeasances and on a late occasioned
a friend of that gentleman than "he had concealed facts a
bout Gen. H' but would do so no longer." We presnmo
tho: the Civilian has been chosen as Ihe medium of publi-
cation. Bo it so; wc have seldom known the enemies of a
man to do him juitico in commenting on secret proofs of
guilt and heralding to the world the nature and extept of
the crime at the same time that the evidences are withheld
We know that Gen. Hamilton has been charged with high
misdemeanors time and again and from such sources that
the charges could notwithoul jjreat.culpabiliiy on the part
of Ins friends remain unnoticed. The accusations made
when be is absent and unable to make such explanations as
he may have to ofIer."have'bcen denied durfngthat absence
to prevent their going to the worlJ with all the embellish-
ments of enmity as indisputable truths and the Civilian
is reluctantly "jirocoied info a ditcttirion" by introducing
it at this particular lime by inuendoes suggesting that
''neither the country or Gen. Hamilton would be likely to
gain by it." That he "con say something if he will" &c.
Now the editor of the Civilian must have something very
tofl about his pericranium to suppose tha. his readers could
consideration for an absent man as covers his feint to
bring on an attack. We are thankful that our frontispiece
has enough of ihe solidity aitnbutcd o it by our neighbor
to break thro' all such gossamer labrics and expose the
street-walking modesty which would attract importunity
by pretending lo dee from it. We take the banter and
promise that our "curiosity" will only be appeased by being
"fully gratified." We cannat dismiss the ""provoked dis-
cussion" at present without comparing the whole lone of
the Civilian's article onjhe subject to the insidious attacks
on that gentleman's Character so repeatedly made by the
Executiver "The partial exoneration of his course by the
James River Company forsooth." Time ias developed
the triumphant fruits of undisguised truth and honor in
that transaction and thc"Company" with that just appre-
ciation of candor which is a concomitant of noble minds
have raxr wiped out the stain inadvertently inflicted and
made amends by renewed confidence and increased reli-
ance. Will the defamcra of Hamilton in Texas show e-
quel nobleness when be shall have "exonerated" himself
from the sly insinuations and open charges heaped upon
him in ihia countr)? .
