HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
I a
FRIDAY, JUNE 9.
A member from Maflachufetts (Mr. Ihi
Bullock) appeared, was qualified and took j fe
his feat. I
The bill to prevent Americans from pri- I w
vateering under a foreign flag, underwent a I ir
trifling amendment and pafled. I te
Mr. Blount laid on the table a refolu- I
, tion, to request the Erefident to cause.to be I £
laid before the House an account of the arms tl
belonging to the United States. I c '~
Mr. Thatcher moved that when the I
House adjourn they adjourn till Monday.— n
Negatived. a
Mr. Nicholas moved ■ that for the re-1
mainder of the feff.on the House do meet I
at 10 o'clock.—Negatived 37 to 4s. I g
The House then went into a committee 1 c
of the whole on the state of the union, Mr. I g
Dent in the chair.
Mr. Davton brought forward the amend- r
iricnt to Mr. Smith's sth resolution of which d
he gave notice yesterday, viz. that merchant- I 0
men should be authorized to arm under certain \
regulations, &c- If the resolution, he ob
served, as it now flood, viz. to rejlria the r
arming, &c. should carry, a bill be brought I 1
in, and that bill fall through either in the r
House or Senate, it would eftabliih a gene- S
ral principle, that the merchants have a right t
to arm. This was a dangerous principle 1
and might involve us in difficulties ; under 11
~ this impreflion he declared he should not J
vote for unlefs this amendment I
prevailed, f 1
Mr. Dana conceived, that the suggestion 1
01 the gentleman last up, went, by implica- I <
tion, to a cenfurc of the conduft of the Pre- I
fident, who, without a law, had authorised J
the arming of vessels bound to the East In- 1
dies and the Mediterranean.
Mr. Dayton was of opinion that the re- I
verse of what the last member had stated was I
the fair indu&ion. By faying now that I
the "right of arming ought to be reftr-icted to I
the cases of }he Mediterranean and Weft I
luditfs, the House in faft approved the con
duft of the Executive in this refpeft.
Mr. Venable cspreffed himfelf of the J
opinion of the member last up.
Thfe amendment of Mr. Dayton was car- I
ried, 51 members riling in the affirmative. I
, Mr. Smith (Ch.) laid he understood
the words '• authorised," &c. not as giv- I
, n c- right to the merchants, which he j
. ftiU ipfifted they had without, but as recog
nizing the right, as treaties often recognize
particular pointijof the laws of nations, which I
they cannot be faid'to«ftabli(h.

now it pod, narro*L-d the ground of lawful

ly to vessels bound to the East Indies or
Mediterranean. * , _ (
Aaucftion was put on the resolution as
aalendtd, and it .was loft. 37 to 45.
Mr. Blount offered .refol'JtionH to the
blowing effe£t :
RefoKed, that provifton ought to be «.iade
by IVw to plate 50,900 of the militia of
t)ie U»«ed Stakes, in equal proportion from

Mr. Blount thought that a well organiz- I\'
ed fyftern of internal defence was all that was on g
required at the present crifts. ■ was
Mr. Smith (S. C.) had some doubts the 1
whether as he waved his refutations 3 and ing
4to bring forward the sth, that being dif- N
posed of, the 3d and 4th should not come disci
under consideration prior to those of Mr. clen:
Blount. tion
The Chairman declared Mr. Blount's re- witl
gu'arly before the committee.. was
t Mr. Harper declared he (hould vote for post
: these resolutions as part df the system of de- ther
1 fence. now
| Mr. Blount did not care whether they thei
were voted for as a part of the fyftera or the refe
I whole, provided they were carried. It had his 1
: been said by the member from who to r
c brought forward the firing of resolutions, j mer
* on a former occasion, that those who were ! did
againft his proportions wera unwilling to refc
place the country in a state of defence. But to I
he believed the suggestion was perfectly un- I
founded. Jror his own part he was as Vvil- tior
ling to place the country in a state of defence the
s as any member, but he differed from, some ter
about the means. The resolutions he bro't the
forward, in liis opinion, took in the proper I
means, and if they were adopted, he con- den
ceived the House would have done their du- fuc'
ty. He was against those means of defence, Ho
which hazarded our peace, and might be a fori
bar in the way of an accommodation. ded
Mr. Smith (S. C.) said he should not oug
oppose the propositions of the gentleman par
*" from North Carolina ; but they appeared to the
" him calculated to do little or nO good. The it n
principal objett of the call of Congress he age
eonceived to be to take measures for the difi
proteftion of our commerce, and of course j
of our revenue which depended on it ; this adj
'g could not be effe£tcd by those resolutions. ciri
' s They could, however, do no harm—would ch;
P> occasion no expence or trouble but that of to
er palling them into law.; they would require tht
no additional revenue, but they afforded no I
remedy to the evils complained of. Those tio
N > measures which could afford efficient defence j
-1- jhe was sorry to fay were opposed on the mi
5 beaten ground of expence. For his part, !no
in j when the security of his country's commerce thi
L ' e I and revenue required that expence, Jie should ] dif
rd I no t fear to meet the e/le£t of the disagree- E;
in able sensations which an addition to the pub' ad
te I lie burdens generally produced. cu
ir " I Mr. Thatcher said, that tho' attached tu
BS I fee why we should adopt the French language tic
I altogether ; he objected to the words " state
los requisition" in the resolution, and fug- r£l
I gefted whether the words " hold in readi- j
I ness," would not answer as well. ! an
'S* I Mr. Blount conceived the obje&ion of j nc
I a very trifling nature. The word had been j
repeatedly used by the old Congress. But
Ir. I he supposed the gentleman from Maffachu-
ok j setts, by his remark, meant to insinuate that "
Ihe might be one of that French fadtion, c
iri- I which had been so often talked of, for hav- P'
ta I ing used, what he chose to imagine was a !
I term borrowed from the French,
lu- I Mr. Thatch er observed, that he had
be I said nothing about a French faftion, or of L.
■ms the members belonging to it—lut a guilty
I comfcience needs no accuser. PJ
the I Mr. Blojjnt said with warmth, that no
, I man, in no place, should east upon him such
I an insinuation with impunity,
re- I The chairman called to order,
eet I Mr. Lyon said he supposed, that if the '
I gentleman from Maflachufetts could be j '
tee I convinced that jy requisition" was good En- | 0
vfr. I glifh, he would have no objection to it. j f
I The Journals of the house, for '94 were 1 '
nd- recurred to, and Mr. Blount agreed to mo- j j
iich dify his resolution, so as to readin the words 1
rat- I of a resolution of the house then adopted, j "
tain The resolution is in substance as follows : 1
ob- Resolved, That the President of the U- v '
the I nited States b» authorised to call on the ! '
ght I Executives of the several States, to take |
the I measures to organize, and hold in readiness | x
;ne- j 80,000 militia including officers and privates
ght to be apportioned among the several States |
iple in proportion to their number of white in-
ider I habitants, viz.
not For Georgia (blank) j
lent I North Carolina (blank) &c.
I The resolution was then adopted. The I
tion I second resolution offered by Mr. Blount, J
lica- I after some conversation was withdrawn.
Pre- I Mr. Smith's (Ch.) 3d resolution which
•ifed I was originally to authorise the purchase of 1
In- I frigates and (loops of war ; and which he
I had modified so as only to empower the Pre
; re-I fident, if he judged proper, to purchase '
was I vessels for the protection of our trade, Came
that I under consideration of the committee.
•d to I Mr. Varnum objefted to the resolution
iVeft jon constitutional grounds. Congrels by the
con- I constitution are authorised to provide for
I and maintain a navy ; but had no right to
the I make over a discretion to do this to the Ex-
I ecutive ; their powers were not transfera
icar- I ble.
itive. I Mr. Sml th (S. C.) could not believe the
[tood I cbjeftion serious. Though by the confti
giv- I tution Congress are to provide a navy ; yet
h he I surely they can authorise the President and
■cog- I give him means for providing it. Congress
rnize I alone are authorised to borrow money ; shall
/hich they not be at liberty to direst the Execu-
I tive to obtain a loan, or must they go in a
as it body to Holland to make the bargain,
iwful Something must be entrusted to the Execu
nerce tive or in time of danger the country could
?f A- j not be defended. The House did not ap
rainft pear of opinion, that the country was now
d on- in such a state as to require any additional
es or armament ; but circumstances might turn
I up during the recess to demand it ; it was
on 'as I therefore expedient to vest this "power -of
procuring a few {mall vessels or gallics in the
:o the President, to be used if circumstances in his
opinion required it.
«.iade Mr. Varnum conceived, that the quef
>ia of tion, whether a nayy was wanted or not, was
1 from veiled by the constitution in the legiflaiure.
; * If they thought an additional r.aval force
to au- receffary, they passed a law for the purpose,

Mr. Smith (M.) underftocd that a bill Mi
on ground similar to thai of the resolution that
was before the Senate ; he therefore wjfhed tione<
the committee to rife, and wait for its com- j As
ing down. _ j t ' !e u
Mr. Nicholas obj-£led to veiling the . a mot
difcretionarj' power i« the Executive as £;ig,
clearly contrary to the {pirit of the conftitu- decla
tion, 'which Ihotild not be departed from T1
without a cafe of extreme neeelfity. This 38 tc
was not such a cafe. The resolution propo- carru
pose to leave it to the President to fay whe- J i
ther the veflels contemplated were necessary; mitte
now he hrvs already said in his speech that That
they are ; if the question of expediency be the I
referred back to him, as the House knows circu
his opinion, it is tantamount to telling him, purcl
to make the purchase; yet -many •;entle- the d
, men had allowed that present eircumftances T1
: did not require this purchase. Besides, the were
1 : resolution did not define how this force was lie o
; to be uftd. He proposed a modification.
Mr. Smith (Ch.) agreed to the modifica
■ tion, which was to insert in the resolution,
: the words "if eircumftances should hereaf
• ter arise, to render the fame necessary for
: the defence of the sea coast."
Mr M'Dowell observed, that tjie Prefi
■ dent had already given it as his opinion that (
• such a purchase fliould be made. But the Apri
, House are in possession no doubt of every in- lying
\ formation on which the President had foun- had
ded his opinion, and, he conceived, they Engi
t ought to exprefc their own. For his own chad
1 part he saw no new information, which urged The
j the propriety of thjs purchase, which made ijh to
t it more proper than it was two or three year? fate,
i ac;o. He was against the resolution as mo- ling
edified. °f c
ej Mr. J. Willi the House must fels.-
s adjourn of course, a»d during their recess plied
1. eircumftances might arise to make the pur
i chafe advifeable. He wished the resolution
f to correspond with that adopted in 1794 >
e then we (hould give offence to none. thef
o Mr. Swanwick objefted to the refolu- brig
e tion as modified.
ej Mr. Harper conceived that gentlemen abri
e mistook the objed of the resolution. It did but:
; , j not fay that present eircumftances required —S
e the purchase ; but that future may. If She
d i discretionary power was not veiled in the loos*
1- Executive in cafe eircumftances arise to make S
)i additional force necessary, all that the Exe- Hul
cutive could do would be to call the legida- Bay
:d ture together ; and this would not be effec- Her
>t tual from the time required for this opera- S
re tion.
. • s
Mr. M'Do\vf.ll again spoke against the
l~ resolution. Eight or ten veflels, would only 01
be fufficient to protest our coasting, trade ; j f 101
and the danger to it was not so imminent, 011
■ nor the value of it so considerable as to au- vo >
:n i thorife the expence of such an armament.
Jt Mr. Gallatin agreed, that the resolu
tion as modified was less objectionable than
" l before : But he was against it even in its
present ffiape. The resolution as it now
stood confined the operation of the propos
ed armament to the sea coast ; but this did
j not give him a clear idea of its objeft. Was A"
it to prevent aftual Tnvafion on the coast ?
j, j ; The force then was infufficient. Was it to
; protect our veflels within the jurisdiction of
! the United States, within nine miles of the
"k coast ? This objeft was not worth the ex
pence ; we have fuffered but little from de-
predations within our jurifdiftion. Was it
to protest our coasting trade and other vef-,
[ convoys ; this seemed to be the idea of the
n ~ ! gentleman from S. Carolina, and there was
' reason to presume it was that of the Execu
" | tive, and hre they were at issue. The gen
-ds 1 t ' eman f rom S. Carolina, fortified with the
J( j opinion of the Attorney General, had con
" tended, that an American vessel provided
jj with regular sea letters, &c. having exhibit
ed them, might refill if attempted to be cap
j tured by the French, and he presumed this
e j- 5 j was the opinion of the Executive. He
te , could not coincide in this opinion ; but fet
tes ting this difference of opinion aside, was
•" S the House ready in the present state of things
to give the Executive the means of enforc
ing it. While negotiations were in train
for an accommodation of differences, was it
->h e prudent to provide the means for measures,
which he should not merely term irritating,
' but which went to aftual holtility.
iich It was said, that-the means were only
of lodged in the hands of the Executive to be
.he provisionally used ; that he is only to use
3 re- them if eircumftances should arise hereafter
lafe to make it advifeable. But the President
ime has already declared he now thinks it advife
able ; of course the smallest additional cir
tion cumftances will authorize him, wilt make it
the his duty, consistently with the opinion he has
for expressed, to use the means. This proposed
tto armament would not be wanted for the pro-
Ex- teftion of our coast against the Weft India
"era- privateers. They will not come here in any.
numbers from the nature of their armament ?
: the those who do come will be the large veflels,
nfti- with regular commiflions for the fake of
yet making captures, not of plundering. He
and saw no reason to expeft much de
jrefs predation on our coast ; the bill lately paf
"(hall ed preventing the exportation of ammuni
ecu- tion, &c. will go towards lessening the dan
in a ger. He concluded by mentioning the fitu
vain. ation of our finances as not of a nature to
;ecu- warrant expence of problematical or not in
:ould dispensable utility. Our expence equals our
: ap- revenues ; and in i£ci the deferred debt
now will require an annual sum of 1,200,000
ional dollars. ,
turn Mr. Nicholas declared himfelf in favour
was of the resolution, if the operation of the
er t)f contemplated armament was was to be con
n the fined to our bays and harbours, and within
in his our jurifdiftion.
