Mr. Beatty then proposed an amendment to the resolution as reported, which modifies it so as to provide that the iritercourfe ihall be restored when the treaty is fulfilled and reparation for the injuries fuffered by our navigation is made to the fatisfaclion of the executive. This, after some debate, was withdrawn to give way to an amendment from Mi. difon which will make the proposition read in substance as follows: « Whereas the injuries fuffered and likely to be'fuffered by the United States, from a violation of our neutral rights and commer cial interests on the part of Great Britain, and also from a failure in the execution ot the 7th article of the treaty of peace make it expedient that oOr commercial mtercou- le with that nation Ihould not remain as exten sive as it now is, therefore resolved, that from the day of next our commercial imercourfe with that nation be fufpentled. The chief difference between this propo sition and the original resolution is, that m this it is not fpecified on what conditions the intcrcourfe (hall be restored ; leaving, there fore, to a future legislature, when th«y are latisfied with the reparation which negocia tion may procure from Great Britain, to re new our commercial relations with that coun- try. The oppofers of the original resolution asked for time to consider the amendment, and it was ordered to be printed. The Senate agreed to the resolution conti nuing the embargo, after striking out the provisos. The house concurred in this and the resolution which authorises the continua tion of the embargo till the 25th of May, under the regulations now in force, which was signed by the speaker.

For want of room we have not been able to lay before the Public this day, the debate in Parliament, but such of them as may not be in the mean time published, will appear in our next, and we are happy to find that the Address to his majesty for his moll gracious fprech from the throne, was carried by 97 against 12 in the house of lords, and 277 against 59 in the house of commons. This decided majority it is most likely will prevail during the present session, whioh will enable the minilter to carry into effect with little difficulty, such measures as he may think most for the honor benefit and advantage of his majesty and his dominions.
