D: few other similar remarks, by t to the effect that a committee be appointed to decide upon the place of meeting of the Convention. Professor Parrison, of the New York University, con: tended, that the motion which had been made os his colleague, Dr. Bedford, was founded upon the principle that it did not appear that this body was such a body as it was intended to be ; he was ofthe opinion that such a motion, especially as it was well founded us appeared on examining the amount of representation here present, ought not to be considered as discourtoous or unkind, #6 as to warrant this hasty step in rejecting the politeness of the University, which had at first been accepted. He, for his part, altogether repudiated the idea that any hos- tility or disrespect had been contemplated or intended in the motion made by his colleague, Dr. Bedford. The call was for a National Convention; now it was most evi- dent that this call had not been responded to. Both in the motion and in the amendment he was sorry to see a feeling of hostility exhibited to the University of the City of New. York; he and his colleagues entertained no hostility to this meeting, though he was decidedly of the opinion that such a convention as hed been originally contemplated was not now here assembled. With this explanation, if the convention think right to refuse the courtesies and civilities of the faculty and University of the City of New York, all he had to say was, “ God speed them.” Dr. Cock, of the College of Sui ed, and stated that the College of fered the use of their rooms. After some confused conversation between several gentlemen, and the offer of numberless amendments, Dr. McNaventen, of the Albany Medical College, in a brief speech addressed the meeting and said, he hoped it would not go abroad to the world that ‘‘ doctors dis- reed,” and that this convention had began its work with a general quarrel among themselves. He hoped the motion to leave the building, which exhibited the spirit of a parcel of quarrelsome school boys, and savored besides of partizanship, would not be acted upon. He was sure there was nothi1g which had been spoken by the gentlemen of the University which could be con- strued into an offence so as to justify quitting their friend- y offered rooms in such a petulant spirit as this resolu- ion exhibited. Dr. Brororp here rose and said, that he deeply regret- ted the construction which was put upon his remarks. In any thing he had said, he did not mean for a moment to disparage the body from whom he differed in opinion. If, continued Dr. B., the gentlemen have interpreted my remarks in such a way, it is a misconstruction—I meant no such thing; and those who differ from me, 01 notto distort language into such an interpretation. I appeal to the good sense and the candor of those gentlemen who entertain an opposite view, whether it is not unjust to- wards myself and the college which I have the honor to represent. Not one word has escaped me which can be tortured into the slightest intention of giving insult to any member of this body. I repeat, am incapable of any such thing. The question that came up was, whether a certain course was legitimate. | took occasion to ex- my dissent—I did it in a candid and open manner—I ad the right to express my opinion in reply to one ef the gentlemen who preceded me in debate, and I repeat to you all, that neither myself nor my colleague would be capable of any such acourse. We have invited you here—we are pleased at being enabled to afford you the accommodation, and while we consider you our guests, we claim the privilege in a public discussion, of express- ing our opinions ona question which comes up legit mately before you for discussion. (Applause.) If this, gentlemen, does not satisfy you, I have only to reiterate ny, dep re ret. (Loud use.) 1. McCoun, the accredited delegat e for Missourl, was d, and his name was recorded as a member eons, briefly explain- jurgeons had first of- x here rose and said--I think, gentlemen, that after the very frank and gentlemanly explanation given by Dr. ford and his colleague, that it would be unwise, unnecessary, and attended with inconvenience, te e our location, which affords us such good ac- commodations. We are indebted to the courtesy of the University for it, (applause,) and it would imply censure under the circumstances, to remove, I, therefore, move that the whole subject do lie on the table. The Secrxtary considered the remarks of Dr. Bed- ford fair and plausible enough; but if a man came into his house, he considered that while he continued there he was fully entitled to every courtesy dictated by the customary rules of hospitality. He considered, that if a man in his own house gave him the cold shou! he was not to wait until he kicked him out of doors. (im- ‘nary laughter, amid loud cries of “ question,” “ ques: The question on laying on the table, was here taken and carried by a very decided majority, none hardly voting for removal from present q' rs, but the gentle- men from the College of ns, of New by the Secretary from Dr. An invitation was here rei C.

These bills are entitled ‘an act to abolish distress for rent,” “an act in relation to devises and descents,” and an act to equalize taxation. I have confidently predicted, upon good and substantial reasons, that none of these bills can pass the Senate. I do not know why I should alter such an opinion. Power will be reposed in the Convention—power and ability to dull the fangs of a law so utterly wicked and intolerant as the law between landlord and tenant. There is peace and love in the home of the manly and independent husband- man who tills his own soll and who whets his own scythe.
