JUNE 28. e Extra 9 of a letter from a member of Congress to agentlemau of this city, June 11, 1797. 11 J g"t 4< p a p ers }j ave informed you how c Congress has been employed since their v ma X meeting. That we have talked much, but p an done little. A view of the majority on the c votes of the answer to the President's t ates ! speech, and the coiiduft of many of that y majority since, prove they were not all feri- 1 ous in the promises they then made. The ' rtU S B answer was firm and strong enough. Our I 0 situation at this time demands such a tone ; ' and if* the sincerity of .our declaration had 0 been evidenced by subsequent mcafures, we v " n " might calculate upon much good resulting 1 f roin such a conduft. Though there has ' beeii much mutual crimination in debate, as ° to the views and motives of party, as also 5 much personality, I would willingly hope, e as we must all be interefied in, so we must J wi/h, for peace. We, however, differ widely ' J 1 ? 3 as to the' means of accomplishing this.—- 3 Some consider the present as a very impor tant crisis in the affairs of this country, and - eS ,' suppose they fee in the conduct of France tected towar( j s USj designs and attempts dangerous . to our independence and threatening to our peace ; and they believe much of this has arisen from a misconception of our real cha racter. Thinking as Ido with those gen . tlemen, we believe that every honorable ef ay r. f or t fliould be made towards an amicable {t r' accommodation of our differences. That, in the mean time, we should adopt such mea sures of defence and proteftion, as will in l°"S' spire confidence at home, and refpeft a lgton. b) . oa( j > That we should convince France P" and the world, that we have some reliance . , upon ourselves. That, as we do not owe ' elt our independence to any nation upon earth, at so we will not consent to hold it on courtesy. That we are an united and determined peo ple. That we are attached to the Govern uly I. raen t of our free choice, and will not be fe vith a- parated from it—That we respect the con- j harief- ftituted authorities, and have confidence in t that their aC.ts. This, I would proclaim, both ley ap- by word and deed. This would give weight going and success to negociation. This has pro it has duced the warm oppolition on our part, to ting a- the amendments to the answer reported by • fame the Seleft Committee. This has-brought it Pro- tinder > consideration the affording some 1 them protection to the commerce of this country, meftics en w"hich the wealth of every class of citi ; iiven zeni, as "well as the revenue of the Gover.i ---3 meet fc much depends. This' has reudeud ; N 1 neceflary. 111 our opinion, a fuithcr ftrerrgth in some of our sea-ports, and an authority . for calling out a provisional army f>r the : defence of our country, if a change in our fituation and circumstances (hould render it necessary. " Those gentlemen who believe that the ' special call of Congress Was unnecessary, and e who fee no cai'.fe tor alarm in the prefeut state of things, are opposed to all those mea " fjires. and any others of the like kind.— e Others, though they acknowledge our iitu ation is and claims our serious T attention, are ytt opposed to every measure' ' which, by any poflibility, may give offence 3 to France, and thereby endanger our peac?; . even w Verc those measures are necessary to J- our pwn protection. What will be tile final result of this collision of opinions, it is iiti " , pofjtible at this time to to determine.
