Standard. , The act cannot, therefore, he regarded by t ic Committee otherwise than as an ng- ., ravated assruilt upon the inestimahle r gilt of freedom of speech guarantied by j: ie Constitution. It asserts for phsical v rce a prerogative over governments, con- ti itutions. and laws; and if earned to its c Itiinale consequences. must result iu an c.hy, and bring in its train all the evils of s "reign of terror."' j The committee, therefore, in conformity | i the spirit of the resolution of the Tl.ouse ( id their sense of public duty, are con- ; rainc i to recommend to the ITonre the ^ issage of such a resolution as will vindi- t, uc lis own character and rebuke ihe I; ember wlio lias, so unhappily Tor himself id the country, perpetrated this great j; rong. ^ n The committee <lo not discuss the pows of the House to punUh its disorderly embers, nor do they undertake to argue c, e general question as to what constitutes breach of privilege. The passage of the ? solution raising the committee is regarded 0 i a declaration on the part of the TTnuse p its power to call its members to account ], r such 'ftfttRaa .violate the privileges of the f, inate. This assault having been commit- ^ d by a member upon a Senator "whilst ;l mainjng in his seat in the Senate chain- (j *r in 'tuc performance of- the duties per- p ining to his official station," and for words p ere spoken in^Jebate, the committee have ^ ) doubt of the right or power of the jj ofise to adopt the resolution which they j| commended. a No testimony has been taken, nor are c e committee aware of any. which shows j, at any other member of the House was j| tlier actively engaged in the assault, or 0 .'sicned to pnmminorv ;a? w.uwvw M miner, nor tlirtt any other member knew | ^ e "precise fifnc lehcn," or "the p/ncc ichcrew l ? r.

Wo hold that the privlp<ros of tho Senate and of the House must >o looked for in the same instrument, and hat none exist except those which are exircssly declared in the constitution, or set nrth in some law passed in pursuance hereof, or pome rule adopted under the -f ?' T* 1 " iuuiumu ui me nauiu. it wouia De strange, ndeed, if the framers of tlie constitution ihould Lave denied to all the departments >f the government, collectively as well as o each individually, the exercises of any >ther than the powers expressly delegated o them, and yet should have left to the two louses the right to claim and exercise priviliges independent of the grants of the contitution. Congress canvass no law subjecting any ;itizen to punishment unless it shall be in nirsuance of a power delegated by the :onstitulioii ; nor can the Executive exoriisc any authority unless it be derived from he same source. If, however, we are pernittcd to look for the privileges of the umnic !ina 01 tlie House to some other lu.irter than to the constitution, it would resent the strange anomaly of denying to he two bodies in their legislative capacity ho exercise of inherent or inferential powers : fleeting the liberty of the citizen, and yet granting to either one, in their separate poitions, the exercises of such a power. It rouhl seem necessary onlj* to state the proposition, ami that its bare statement would ai ry with its own refutation. The admission of such a right would con tit ute either house of Congress a legislative, udicial, and an executive pow$r combined ; laving the power of a Legislature to pate lie law, the p^wcr of a judge to expound t, and the power to execute it. A more >eifa.-.t despotist 11 never lias and never can xist than?if such be the fact?does exist 11 either branch of Congress. In reply to the assumption that tho pariainent gives the source from which-this utfjority is claimed, tlie powers assumed ,n?l oxf-rcised by that body are comtidefftd, lid upon this subject llie following opinion is x pressed: It is jfcbus scon that tlie British Parliament, tfnutfr the doctrine of privilege exerised an unlimited power -of fine and irarisonment, and in some of the cases*cite<i ave gone so far as to banish the citizorft om the realm". In fcther cases they-have* aused their private d woltifigs ty ,bb searftfrdid,. Qfrnd, without other *nuthority-"'OPl^y-'<fiftiti liat exercised by virtue of their q^suraecl rivilege, havo seized- and "destroyed the roperty of the citizen. Will it bfc contended hat such powers, can be exercised by either ioiiscs of Congress? If Congress derives Is privileges from the parliamentary law, .nd that parliamentary law recognizes no iti&ftfycstraint except the wisdom and the ustice of those who exerojse the power,then i. is for each hoqso'of Congress, atthe ^ime f the commission of any act which iE.fnay hinlc proper to regard as a violation of^a n ivileges, so to determine and to declai$f$At uch act is a violation of its privileges, and fl ififlirt nnniolimn?if ifr '" Ala retion, may-determine upon. To this ex1ent must ihe doctrine bo carrftd/ if%e 3ok to that source at nil to ascertain- the irivileges of either house of congress. ?holo parliamentary law on the subj^oi mist either be repudiated or adopted.
