Abraham Baldwin, a representative from Georgia, seems to have been unusually active.

It requires two columns to index all the remarks he made on various bills. He took part in the famous debate of 1789, on establishing the State Department Fire Ligntning and Tornadoes the time of his death. His sister, Mary Ann, while being educated in England, was discovered by a wealthy Scotchman, a banker in London, named Hugh Thurburn, who, becoming enamored of her charms of mind and person, sought her heart and hand and her father's consent, which latter was obtained on a visit with her to Italy on the completion of her course of study. The other daughter became the wife of an Englishman in the Turkish service; but she does not enter into the details of this narrative.

Car EEolidLsL-y- Good From this debate has descended the yet prevailing doctrine, that though Senate and President must join in appointing officials, the President alone enjoys the power of removal. This singular theory of construing the Constitution by a vote of Congress, was adopted in the Senate by the casting vote of John Adams. He beame the President, but he did not remove many.

Even the Supreme Court has upheld this doctrine of exclusive power of removal resident in the Executive as late as 1881. Stephen R. Bradley, a Representative from Vermont, is in the catalogue as debating the amendment which provided that the Electoral College should by their votes designate who was to be President and who Vice-President. The first provision was that the person having the highest vote should be President and the next Vice President.

MONEY he had reason to fear, he resolved upon taking his family with him to the sunny land and claim his own. He found matters much mixed with regard to his family affairs and estate, and also hindrances to a settlement in his favor owing to his nominal legal statu there. But he was satisfied to receive a portion of the estate without litigation, and took his family back to America possessed of something in the vicinity of thirty thousand dollars. With this, upon his return, he speculated somewhat, lost a portion, and finally, by sickness and other troubles, became penniless, and had recourse again to his lingual requirements for the support of himself and family.

In the very first Congress, he is found introducing a tariff bill.

Tariff bills were harmless in their percentages then, but Thomas was the first to introduce a bill. The idea was Alexander Hamilton's, of course. Albert Gallatin, the famous financier of the Jefferson shool, requires six columns to catalogue his various resolutions, speeches and reports. He was born in Switzerland, and was not allowed to serve as a Senator from Pennsylvania in the First Congress, for he had not been nine years in the United States.

They are all living and bear the following names: Hugh Thurburn Barker, Charles H. Barker, Robert H. M. Barker, William Wilton Barker, Daniel N. S.

Barker and Antonina Margaret Barker. Thus it will be seen that the family names were preserved by the father in christening his progeny, for besides those recognisable by the casual reader, it is asserted that every initial represents a cognomen he meant to perpetuate. When the elder Charles H. Barker died, Hugh Thurburn, the husband of his sister, was living, reputed to be worth 3,000,000.

Robert Goodloe Harper, of South Carolina, is mentioned as addressing the House on the charges of bribery made against Whitney and Randall. This was in 1795, and these outsiders tried to bribe some members. Their offense was voted a contempt of the privileges of the House.

Randall was jailed for a fortnight and Whitney for three weeks. The House held its right to punish for contempt, and even the editor of the Aurora had to apologise for defamatory articles to escape imprisonment Frederick A.

The only way open to him to get across the great pond was to work his passage.

The gold of that vicinity was worth 118 an ounce, which would make the Talue of the nuggot 190,000. This would make the Finney nugget the largest pleoe of gold ever discovered, so tar as accounts go.
