The legislature convened at Albany, January 28th, 1806. Dr. Sheldon was again elected Speaker. Immediately a struggle arose over the unprecedented course adopted in choosing the Council of Appointment. A snap caucus of the Republican members of Assembly was called to accommodate De Witt Clinton, whose polit- ical opponents were in the majority in his own district, and who would, therefore, have been defeated for member of the Council had the proceedings been held in the regular way. This caucus nomi- nated DeWitt Clinton of Queens, Robert Johnston of Dutchess, Adam Comstock of Saratoga, and Henry Huntington of Oneida, all Republicans.
