Wednesday, June 4.
The bill to authorize the President to
feceiveon the part of the United States,
cessions of land of light hou
ses, passed a committee, but was rejected
on a co.nttitutional principle in the House,
on the queilion of engrofTment.
A motion was made by Mr. Boudinot,
and agreed to, that a committee of both
Houses be appointed to wait on the Pre
sident, arid recjuelt: that he wi.uld recom
ment to the People of the United States,
a Day of Prayer and Humiliation to Al
mighty God, for tli£ Safety and Prospe
rity of the U. S. The resolution was
directed to be communicated to the Se
nate for their concurrence, and a com
mittee of three appointed to join a com
mittee of the Senate to wait on the Pre
sident of the United States with the
fame.
The bill to authorize the President to

The House, according to the order of

of the whole House on the report of the
committee, to whom was referred the re
monstrance of'the People weft of the Al
leghany Mountain, relative to the Navi
gation of the river Mifiifippi, and after
some time spent therein, Mr. Speaker fe
fumed the chair, and Mr. Trumbull re
ported, tfiat the curhmittee had, accord
ing to order, had the fame report under
cohfideration, and come to a refojution
thereupon, whicb he delivered in at the
Clerk's table, where the fame was tw'ice
read, and agreed to by the House, as
followeth:
Resolved, That as it appears from the
communications of the Executive, that
the right of the United States to the free
navigation of tht Mifiifippi, is now the
fubjedt of negotiation with the Court of
Spain, and as it the interest of the Uni
ted States, and every part thereof, to
come to an amicable*, adjuilment of the
right in that mode, rather than resort to
any means constitutionally belonging to
• the Legislature, no farther proceeding
(llould be had on the said
during the present fefilon of Congrtfs.
