CONGRESS, SOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Thursday, February 27. Vnother member, to wit, Jshn Smith, . (in the room of Jonathan Nico'l Havens L j. deceased) from New-York, appeared ; day, was and took his feat. Mr. Page presented a petition of Samuel 0 ik, a soldier during; the Revolutionary ir, which was read and referred to the mmittee of claims. Mr. Davis said, as the House did not nk proper yesterday to indulge him in the jption of the icfolution then proposed, he ijed they would adopt the following, and er.able him to »btain all the evidence upon \ fubj..-ct which ootid be had—viz. ttesglved, That the Prclident of the Uni ■ 1 States just if; —antl MefiYs. ' ivth, Li»ingftou, and Nicholas, in favor it., Mr. Otis having mentioned, that he war ;i :horiied by the Secretary of State, to fay, it he had 110 further authenticated tranl s pt than had been fubiuitted to the House ; Mr. Nicholas. after a few observations t-ji-omnrended to Mr. Divir, to withdraw' refutation—which having been done, Mr. N. moved the following : Resolved, That the Speaker of the House Reprelentatlves, be requeued to pn-cure ' •wi the Cierk of the diftrfft Court of South rolina, copie s, under seal, of the proceed ii ;s of that Court, together with the evi ■ ices produced in the cafe relative to the uifitipn for Thomas N ifh, alias Jonathan • bbins, who was delivered to his"Britan- Majesty's Conl'ul. Mr. Harper moved that the rtfoliitionTie poflponed till this day week—and was replied • by Messrs. Nicholas and Gallatin ; when Mr. H. Lee, said, he hoped the gentle ian from South Carolina would withdraw motion for postponement—He might • e upon this fubjedt, Mr. H. Lee, said, rrent from his friends—but he would do th'S, because he had no objection that the % aker fliould write the letter which the re s', ition contemplated—and in the interim, t' house fliould go into Committee of the "iiile upon the fubjrd, and proceed upon t' difcuflion as far as the President was im p\ ated, and at a future day upon the con di y of the Judge of South Carolina. Mr. Dana applauded the principle ef the hon. gentleman last up, who like a veteran 6\cer, boldly met his enemy without arti fiv orevafion ; but he was not willing to concede so far : If we wanted to make fur ther enquiiy, appoint a feleft committee for t;.; t purpose. He neve? lic'ii J ker of a body like this, being inllruftecl to enquire into fads. Mr. D. concluded with llmarkine; 011 rhe-manner in wiH«w bu siness was introduced ; and the inability its a' .ocates felt to maintain the ground they hnd taken, and by expitfTinj;'a with, the re solution would not be adopted. Meffis. Harper and Bayard also spoke in fovor of the poftponenwnt, and MelTrs. Var- Jjutn, Randolph and Jones against it, when tWquefticn was taken—Yeas 32—Nays 67. The question then recurred upon adopt ing the resolution. when Mis Marshall spoke at length against it.— He contended there wes no profpcfl of coming to a decision of the original quefti n this ftfllon if this were adopted and a/ked if the charafter of the P>-efident of the United States ought to be b !d up m the suspicious view in which the resolution placed it, until the next feflitin of Congrefs?—He hoped not. It feeroed to him that a postponement amounted to ade claration to the people of America, thai there was mueli caufcfor suspicion, and thai additional ev,'deuce was wanted to fubftan tiate it. Mr. Nicholas replied to Mr. Marshall, and contended, that the whole truth of the cafe was to come out of the additional tes timony now aflced for. An adjournment Wat then called for, and negatived—ayes 30. Mr. Randolph fpokc in favour of the refoiution, and in answer to Mr. Marshall, when the question was taken, and negatived —Yea» 44 —Noes 51. Adjourned. NfeW-LOXDON, February 14. Extract of a letter from Cc.pt. Moses Tryon dated on board the United States ship Conneetitul, 10 leagues E. N'. E. fr.m Diseada, Jan. le, 1800, to a Gentleman in Middletoion. " I have been able to reduce it to a cer tainty, that the Conneftieut, is, perhaps, the fatkfl tailing ship in thei'e fcas. I have had a fair trial with several British i»*n of War ; I hkewife had an opportunity to try her failing with the Insurgent, (Sapt. Murry and the Adams, Capt. Morns, botVi of ■which I hive fairly beaten by the wind, and I think lean fay, she fails equally well from the wind. On the whole 1 am not afraid to have a fair look at any thing that floats on the ocean. I have had the good fortune to fall in with the French privateer brig, the Conqueror of Italy ; mounting 12 guns and fixtytwo men ; (having manned fix prizes in the course of her cruise ; which I captur ed the 29th ult. on her return to Point Petre ; flie has done more injury t» our commerce than any ether privateer out of Gnadaloupe ; having by accounts, taken two hundred American vrflels ; the has run upwards of four years, and had bid defiance to nil British frigates." Bahhntre, Felruary 25. Arrived (hip Triumph, captain Benja min Richards, from Batavia. Captain R. left Batavia, 19th October, in company, with flups Mary.
