Ames and Robert Orr, of the b Springfield Manufactory of Arms, praying i for an allowance of rations—Referred to the •Secietary at War. * Mr. R bed presented a petition from Ja- 1 bez Hb.U, for relief on account of a certifi- 1 cate which had been destroyed by fire. n Mr. Elsundorph also presented peti- " tions from Jacob Hofbiook and George c Frost the former to have certificates fund ed which had not been presented in time, J and the latter for a newjand warrant for one L which he had loft. , f The above petitions were referred to the j committee of claims ; as was also that of Frederick Cyrus, presented yesterday. 1 " Mr. Findley presented the memorial of * Benjamin Wills, collefter of revenue, who states, that in the years 1791, 179 2 > 1 793 j and 1794, and particularly in the lalt year, v he had been greatly obilrufted in the per- « formance of his duty by persons opposed to the laws which he had to execute, by which t he had experienced considerable loss and in- t jury. He acknowledges having received from the commissioners, in purfuancc of the ; I aft passed on this fubjeft, upwards of Soo dollars, but this sum being inadequate to his r conopenlation, he prays for further relief. t Mr. Findley moved that this memorial, ' being i Angular ease, and the petitioner be- « ing in town waiting the iflue of his applica- c tioii, should be referred to a feleft commit- ' tee. This motion wa6 fecomkd by Mi - . 1 Hartley, and opposed by Melfrs. C,oif Macon, who were.of opinion that the b'jli- 1 liefj would come- properly nnder the cogiti- j nance of the committee of claims, and that it was deferable, in order to preserve an uui formi'-y in their proceedings, to have this and'all other claims referred to the ftand ijg committee. Mr. Macon therefore mov- t ed that this petition should be referred to 1 the committee of claims ; but, at the re- * quest of Mr. Hartley hoth motions were < withdrawn, and the petition was ordered to lie on the table. Mr. Findley gave notice be should call it up to-morrow. A mefTage was received from the Senate, informing the house, that the Senate had formed a quorum, and that they had elefted Mr. Read president pro tern. Mr. Williams moved that a committee be appointed jointly with to be appoint ed by tha Senate, to wait upon the Presi dent of the United States, to inform him that quorums of both houses are assembled, and are ready to receive any communications which he may think proper tomake to them. The motion was agreed to, and Messrs. Otis, Rutledge and Dawfou were appoint ed a commiitee for the purpose. Mr. Rutubge presented a memorial , from the merchants of Charleston, complain- 1 ing of the operation of a law for the regu lation of the ouftom-houfe at that place, by which the "olleftor is to cause to be weigh ed by his own officers, all goods and wares imported, which were hrretofore weighed by the proprietors of the wharves, who kept persons for the purpose, and which ad ded considerably to the value nt the private property of individuals owning t.ne said wharves: they Hate this grievance to have put them to great inconvenience, and pray for redress Referred to the Secretary of the Treasury. Mr. Coit observed that there were in his opinion, some inconsistencies in the aft for the encouragement and protection of the ufeful arts. By this act, any person fvvear ing that he is the inventor of any improve ment, and paying the expence of the patent, may obtain one ; ancl|ifai~.y person infring es it, he ha 3 his remedy by suing him- Ihe general scope of the aft did not go to define who wss the real inventor ; this was left to be determined. In the former aft on this fubjeft, certain of the heads of the depart ments were to determine whether any objeft proposed for a patent was really a new in vention. In looking farther into the aft he found two clauses which he thought incon fi4e-n't with the general tenor of the law [these he read] and therefore moved that a committee be appointed,to enquire whether any, and if any, what alterations are ne cessary to be made in the said -.ft. Agreed and a committee of three mem bers appointed. \ A mefTage was received from the Senate, informing the house that they concurred with them in the appointment of a commit tee to wait upon the President, and that they had appointed Meflrs. Bingham and Tracy, a committee on their part. On motion of Mr. Harper, the report of the committee of revifal and unfinifhed busi ness w?.s taken up, and the following reso lution having been read, was agreed to . « That all petitions depending and un decided upon at the second session of the fourth Congress, and at the last session, ought to be taken up and aftcd upon by the House, as the fame may be called for by any ipember, or upon application of the indi vidual clmfpant or petitioner. Mr. Harper then observed thatamongtt the unfiniflicd business, there was a report oh the petition of Henry Hill, which was favorable to the petitioner. He wished, as the business had already been long before the house, to have it early decided upon, and wouldjmove therefore that it be referred to a eommittee oftbewhole house. Agreed, and made the order for Monday. < A mefTage was received frcm the senate, informing the house, that they had agreed to a resolution for the appointment of two chaplains, one for each house, to interchange weekly and that they had appointed on their part Bilbop White. Mri Livingston fdid, amon;»fl the un- v finifhed business, hs found a bill for the 1 relief of refugees from Canada sod Nova t Scotia. He wilhed it to be referred to a t committee of the whole. Agreed and made t the order for Monday. t Mr. Harper observed, that rovyards the r close of the last session, a very di ft reding j cafe was brought before the house, and t postponed for want of time ; he meant that > { of Antonia Carmichael, widow of William \ Carmichael. He moved that that report r be referred to a committee of the whole, r Agreed for Tuesday. t Mr. Otis, from the committee appoint- t ed to wait on the President of the United States, reported that they had attended to c the service, and that the President had fig- t nified to them that he would make a com- a munication to them to-morrow at twelve 1 o'clock in the representative chamber. < Mr. Livingston said, there <v3s a re- i port of a feleft committee on the operation t of the aft for the relief and protection of '1 American Teamen, which included the sub- 1 jest of an establishment of a marine hofpilal, ; snd other important matters. He wished 1 this fubjeft referred to a eommmittee of the < whole. Agreed for Tijefday. i Mr. A< Foster moved that a report of ( last session on the petition of George Cur- t wen Ward, ke referred to tly committee of 1 commerce and manufaftures. Agreed. ' On motion of Mr. Coit, the report on j cafe of North and Beazy, was referred 1 to a committee of the whole for Tuesday. 1 Mr. Venable thought it not right that ] hufinefs which was pertcftly new to many < members, should be thus referred to com mittees of the whole. He did not think the resolution of the committee of revifal i and unfinifhed business went so fur. He 1 thought it meant only that the pttitidns and reports should be taken up and read, ' and then difpof*d of as the house fiionld think proper. The speaker decided that the order taken was agreeable to the reported refolation of the committee of revifal and unfinifhed bu siness, which had been agreed to. Adjourned. The members attending to day for the firft time were ; in the house of represen tatives, Messrs. Sitgreaves and Bard, from this state ; in the senate, MeflVs. Jackson and Anderfon, from TenefTee, and Mr. Chrpman, from Vermont. PRESIDENT'S speech. * s this da r, At Twelve o'Clocl, the PRESIDENT of the United States, met both Houses of Con gress, in the Chamber of the Representa tives, where be addressed them in the follow ing SPEECH. Gentlemen of the Senate, and Gentlemen of the House of Representatives, I was for some time apprehensive, that it would be necessary, on account of the contagious fickncft, which afflifted the city of Philadelphia, to convene the National Le gillature at some other place ; this measure it was desirable to avoid, because it would occasion much public inconvenience, and a eonfiderable public expence, and add to the calamities of the inhabitants of this city, whose fufferings must have excited the fyni pathy of all their fellow citizens ; therefore, after taking meafurs to ascertain the state and decline of the sickness, Ifoftponedmy determination, having hopes, now happily realized, that without hazard to the lives or health of the members, Congress might affemWe at this place, where it was next by law to meet. I submit however to your confederation, whether a power to pofipone the meeting of Congress, without palling the time fixed by the Coxftitution, upon such occasions, would not be a ufciul amend ment to the law of one thousand seven hun dred and ninety four. Although I cann»t congratulate you on the re-eftabUfhment of peace in Europe, and the restoration of security to the persons, and properties of our citizens from injufticc and violence at sea ; we have neverthclefs abundant cause of gratitude to the source of benevolence and influence, for interior tranquility and personal security, for propi tious seasons, prosperous agriculture, pro ductive fifheries, and general improvements ; and above all, for a rational spirit of civil and religious liberty, and a calm but steady determimtiv<n to support our sovereignty, as well as our moral and religious principles against all open and secret attacks. Onr envoys extraordinary to the French republic embarked one in July, the other early in August, td join their colleague in • Holland. I have received intelligence of the arrival of both of them in Holland, from 1 whence'they all proceeded on their journeys to Paris, about the 19th of September. F Whatever may be the result of this mission, - I trull that nothing will have been omitted - on my part, to cont'.ift the ntgoeiation to a fuccefsfulconcluGon, onfuchequitableterms, - as may be compatible with the fafety, hon : or, andintereft of the United States—Noth , ing in the meantime, will contribute so much eto preservation of peace, and the attain- Y ment of justice, as a manifeftati«n of that - energy, and unanimity of which on many former oceafions, the people of the United I States have given such memorable proofs, t and the exertion of those resources for na s tional defenfe, which a beneficent providence s has kindly placed within their power, e It may be confidently afTerted, that noth ,, ing has occured, since the adjournment of J Congress, which renders, inexpedient, those I, precautionary measures, recommended by me, to the confederation of the two houses, :, at the opening of your late extraordinary d session —lf that system was then prudent, it o is more so now, as increasing depredations e strengthen the reasons for its adoption ti Indeed, whatever may be the ifiue of the negocfation with Frar.ce, and whether thf war in Europe or is not tq eo'ntinti?, 11 hold it'mc'.l ci :taio, thrt perraine. t Wasi-. Ms quility and-ordtr wtß no; soon the ftstc of focjetjr hos so!-. ~ b:en difl-v.rfi ed, the sense of moral and religious obliga tion so much weakened, public faith, qnd G national honor have been so impaired, res- • ge pest to treaties, has been so diminiflied, and of the law of nations has loft so much of its ■ di force ; while pride, ambition, avarice, and or violence,havebeen so long unrellraincd, there th remains no reasonable ground, an which to ar raise an expeftation, that a commerce with- th out proteftion, or defenfe will not be plun- d< dered. it ' The commerce of the United States is fil essential, if not to their existence, at lead to their comfort, their growth, prosperity fc and happiness ;—The genips, character, an and hibits of the people are Highly commer- fie cial, their cities have Wen formed, and ex- fu ift'upoa commerce ; otir agrioulture, fifh- th cries, arts and rranufaft nreff, are connefted pi with and depend upon it; in (liort, com- bi merce has made this country what it is ; b} and it eannot be, destroyed or negltfted, b< vithont involving the peopl-" in poverty and in diftreft ; —great numbers are directly and oi solely supported by navigation ; the faith hi of society is pledged for the preservation of th the rights of tommercial, and sea faring ; ce no less than of the other citizens ; under this ce view of our affairs, I (hould hold myfelf fr guilty of a negleft of duty, if I forbore to j recommend, that we fliould make every j qi exertion to proteA our commerce, and to | fn place our eountry in a suitable poßure of l ai defenfe, as the only sure means of preferv. j q< ing both. ' j f« I have entertained an expeftation, that j ai it would have been in my power, a» the I ei opening of this ftflion, t<6 have communica- j S ted to you, the agreeable information of: h the due execution of our treaty with his e Catholic Majesty, refpefting the withdiaw- j d ing of his troops from our territory, and h the demarcation of the lineof limits, but by C the Inteft authentic intelligence, Spanish garrisons, were ft ill continued within our ri country, and the running of the boundary tl line, had not been commenced, these cir- y cumftances are the more to be regretted, as t; they cannot fail to affeft the Indians in a manner injurious to the United States, still v however, indulging the hope, that the an- c fwers which have been given will remove the f objeftions, offered by the Spanish officers n to the immediate execution of the treaty, e I Cave judged it proper that we (hould con- r tinue in readiness to receive the pods, and e to run the line of limits—further informa- c tion on this fubjeft will be communicated si in the course of the feflion. f In conneftion with this unpleasant (late d of things, on our western frontier, it is- u proper for me to mention, the attempts of o foreign agents to alienate the affeftions of v the Indian nations, and to excite them ten aftual hostilities agaiuft the United States ; r great aftivity has been exerted by those 1 persons, who have insinuated themselves a mong the Indian tribes, residing within the i territory of the United States, to influence j them to transfer their affeftions and force to a foreign nation, to form them iotft • ion- < federacy, and prepare them for war agaiuft the United States. Although measures j have been taken to counteract these infrac- j tioitß of our rights, to prevent Indianhhost tilitics, and to prcferve entire their attach- \ ment to the United States, it is my duty to t observe that to give a better effeft to these ( rtieafures, and to obviate the consequences , of a repetition of fiich praftlce3 a law pro- t vidiug adequate pjinifhment for such offen- j ces may be necessary. ; The commissioners appointed under the fifth article of the Treaty of Amity, Com- • merce and-Navigation, between the United States and Great Britain, to ascertain the river, which was truly intended under the name of the river St. Croix mentioned in the treaty of peace, met at Pafiawaquaddy bay in October, one thonfancl feveu hundred and ninety fix, and viewed the mouths of the rivers in question, and the adjacent shores aRd Islands, and being of opinion, that ac- 1 tual surveys of both rivers to their sources were necessary, gave to the agents of the j two nations inftruftions for that purpose, and adjourned to meet at Boston in August : they met, but the surveys requiring pore time than had been fuppofefl, and not being then compleated, the commissioners again adjourned to meet at Providence, in the ( State of Rhode Island, in June next, when we may expeft a final examination and deci sion. The Commiflioners appointed in purfu ance of the sixth article of the Treaty, met at Philadelphia in May lad, to examine the ( claims of Biitiflv fubjefts, for debts contrast- , ed before the peace," and still remaining due to them from citizens, or inhabitants of the United States. Various causes have hither to prevented any determination, but the business is now resumed. and doubtless will be prosecuted without interruption. Severel decilions on the claims of citizens of the United States, fpr losses and dama ges sustained, by reason of irregular, arid illegal captures or condemnation of their vessels, or other property have been made by the commissioners in London, conform ably to the seventh article of the Treaty— The sums awarded by the commissioners j have been paid by the British government, I a considerable number of other claims, where j costs and damages, and not captured proper ! ty, were the only objefts in t}ueflion, have ! j been decided by arbitration, and the sums ! ewarded to the citizens of the Uuited States have also been paid. The commissioners appointed, agreeably p to the tweuty-firft article of our Treaty . with Spain met at Philadelphia, in the sum- I mer palt, to examine and decide on the cWims of our citizens for losses, they have ' sustained in consequence of their vessels and cargoes, having been taken by the fubjefts 5 of his Catholic Majesty during the late war between Spain and France their fittings j . have been interrupted, but are new refu-1 5 ir.ed. » r*^« i \ i• if , .. .

' Gentlemen of the Monfe of Reprefntativer, > It is my duty to recommend to your fe r rious confideratioi, those objefts, which by t the constitution, are placed particularly - within your sphere, the national debts and > taxes. i Since the decay of the feudal system, by 1 which the public defence was provided for, • chiefly at the expence of individuals, the t Tyllfm of loans has been introduced ; and as s no nation can raise, withia the year, by tax , cs, fufficient sums for its defence and milita ry operations in time of war, the sums loan -1 ed, and debts contraftcd have necefTarily be - come the fubjedts of what have been called 1 funding systems ; the consequences arising from the constant accumulation of public 5 debts, in other countries, ought to admonish s ■ us, to be careful to prevent their growth in f our own—the national defence must be pro f vided for as well as the support of govern e men:, but both (hould be accomplished as ; much as pofliblc by immediate taxes, and as e little as pofliblc by loans. The estimates for the fervi«e of the ensu e ing year will by my direftion be laid before t you. ! 3 Gentlemen of the Senate, and - Geutlemen of the House of Reprefentgtives, t Wt are met together at a rnoft interesting s period ! Tlie fmntions" of the principal > powers of Europe, are lingular and porten- I- tous : connected with Tome by treaties, and i- with all by commerce, no important event o there, can be indifßrjiit to us : Such cir c cumftances call with peculiar imoorlunity,, ■a not less for a disposition to unite, in all those >- measures, on which the hosour, fafety, and i- prosperity of our country depend, than for all the exartions of wifdotn and firmnefs. e Tn all such nieafures, yon may rely on my zealous and hearty concurrence. d JOHN ADAMS. i* Untied States, 1 November 22, 1 797. j 5 SALT ¥ WINE, " ie AT AUCTION.
