Philadelphia, January 29,1794.

*4 tco P.
[Whole No. 528.]
Congress of the United States«
House of Representatives.
January 30.
In committee of the whole on Mr. Madifun's
refulut'ions,
The following ought to have preceded
Mr. S, Smith's Speech publilhed laffi
Saturday.
Speech of Mr. Madison.
AS it appeared, he said, that most of
the objections against the proposed Reiu
iutious. had been made by those who*
meant to combat them, and that a ouef
tion would soon be called for ; it might
perhaps be expected that he should review
those objections, arid affijjn the rrafon*
which induced him to continue in the opi
nion lie at firft entertained. He wilhed it
not to be understood, that he meant to
examine every particular argument, which
in thecourfe of fo'extenfive a difcuflion,
had been opposed to the measure. The
committee mud have perceived that some
of them had been of a nature not to me
rit an answer ; and that others had fufß
ciently answered themselves. He should
extend his observations to such topics on
ly as might he thought to need explanati
on, and to have an influence on the quet
tion,
Previous, however, to this general fur 1 -
vey of the ground which had been- tra>
veiled over, he fliould so far presume on
the patienee of the committee, as to re
cm' to the original opposition made by
the member from South Carolina (Mr.
Smith); and to take notice of some par
ticulars in what had been urged by him,
which were left unanswered at the time.
The gentleman had thought proper to
introduce his discourse with a very un
merited attack on the late Secretary of
State, and to mingle with it a variety of
criticisms on the facts and opinions stated
in his report, on the fubjeft under consi
deration. The spirit and manner in
which the attack had been made, and
which could not have escaped the atten
tion of the committee, would be left in
that silence which may best express the
sentiment they must have inspired.
He (hould indeed have thought it left
necefiary to take further notice than he
had already done, of the matter of the
gentleman's remarks ; if attempts'had not
been made, particularly by a friend of the
gentleman (Mr. Am?s) to give a weight
to his ftatcments aiid Inferences, which it
would be {hewn they did not merit ; and
if the task did not afford an opportunity
of elucidating some particular points relied
on, by the opponents of the.Resolutions.
It was made a charge against the Secre
tary of State, that he takes no notice of
the higher duty imposed by Great Britain
on other foreign tobacco, than is imposed
on American, (the former being 3s. 6d.
(ler. per pound, the latter is. 3d.) wl.ilft
he takes care to mention the high duty
imposed on the American ; although the
diferimination is in favor of the United
States, and is againit Portugal, a country
in particular connexion with Great Bri
tain ; and although the high duty of r/3
is immaterial to the United States, being
paid by the consumer of tobacco in Great
Britain.
It was unfortunate for the gentleman
that this charge is- fallacious in every mem'
ber of it.
I. The discrimination is not j'n favour
of the United States, either in its inten
tion, or in its operation : not in its inten
tion, because it was made in reference to
this country, when it was a part of the
British Empire, and not in reference to
us as Independent States j not in its ope
ration, because if the discrimination were
abolished, it would bring no rival of our
tobacco into the British market. This is
proved by the fa£t, that ill other markets,
as that of France, where no such discri
mination exiftfr, the American tobacco i«
without a rival. It was well known that
this and the other apparent favors to this
country, were a remnant of the Old Colo
