, submited the following resolution:

ubscription by the Convention, to the Daily Chronicle, be dis present month".

The resolution bemg under consideration, it was read a second timeayes 58.

Mr. STEVENS, of Adams, moved to amend the resolution, by striking out all after the word Resolved", and inserting as follows: "That a committee be appointed to enquire into the expediency of making arrangements for discontinuing the Daily Chronicle".

Mr. BROWN, of, Philadelphia, moved to amend the amendment, by adding the words, And also to enquire how far the other expenses of this Convention may be reduced".

Mr. STEVENS accepted the amendment as a modification of his amend

ment.

Mr. FRY then accepted the amendinent, as amended, as a modification of his resolution.

Mr. EARLE, of Philadelphia, remarked, that the whole cffect of the resolution would be destroyed by the modifications, as the third month of the Chronicle would begin, unless the committee should report to

morrow.

Mr. STEVENS said, it would he quite as respectful to the House to suppose that any, committee would do its duty, as to charge it with impurity in advance.

Mr. CUMMIN, of Juniata, said, the subject had occupied his mind. He had always voted against this expenditure. He knew the subsc iption would be expensive, but he did not know it would be desired by his constituents. He had several letters from which it appeare, that the people liked to have it. He believed it woull be wrong, after the great expense incured by the publisher for hands, types, presses, &c., to say to him, that we will stop short in the midst.

Mr. CUNNINGHAM, of Mercer, more to strike out all that part of the resolution which related to the Daily Chronicle. He did not know why the Chronicle was to be made the scape-goat of the Convention. He believed there were other causes. Ever since he had received the Chronicle, he ha sent it to his constituents according to a list made out, and had desired that it might be filed in the Post office. From letters which had reached him, he could say, that his constituents were much gratified with the act of the Convention in sending this paper out among the people. They did not mind the expense-they wanted the information, every day, and correctly given. He had heard no complaints. Why did not gentleman strike out the expense of the other papers?

Mr. BROWN, of Philadelphia, suggested the propriety of leaving the VOL. III.
