"The right of Great Britain to the

To set this matter in a clear point ol

that right which all men havi, in com
mon with each other, to the earth, the
water and the air and this we shall
find in the extensive grant to the first
pair, and in them equally to all their
descendants. This grant is recorded
in the fust chapter and the first book of
the sacred law; And God blessed them

They live by hunting, and though their
tribes are thinly scattered over the con
tinent, yet the whole is no more than
sufficient for a hunting ground nay,
with even this extent of country theii
subsistence is precarious, and they fre
quently experience the severest it
of famine, when the wild animals tin1
make their fond are rendered urwe, or
have withdrawn to a didcreut lores)

ot liberty to use what manner of Ifr

consideration.

ind for some space of lime posterior lo
the general deluge, when the flesh of
mi mals was given to the tue of man,
they might subsist by hunting but on
the closer settlements of families snd
nation, this manner of life became im
possible to one, without engrossing
more territory .than could be spared to
another, and as all could no subais in
Ms manner, no one had a righ lo claim
it as anexclusive privilege.
The aborigines of this continent can
therefore have but small pretence lo a
soil which they have never cultivated.
The most they can with justice claim,
is a right to those spots of ground
where their wigwams have been plan
ied, and to so much of the soil around
them as may be neressiry to produce
grain to support them, their families,
in towns upon the coae', or in the in

the situation where former circumstan

think it still advisable lo purchase from

"The red race has disappeared from

however, was silenced by toe fire from ihe

A motion was Immediately made in l.iy

ihe vote was yeas 105, nays 03. So the
amendment was concurred in.
Amidst a great uproar a motion was
made to reconsider lite vote just laken- The
yeas and nays having been ordered. Mr.
lludgon called upon the speaker lo have
thai rule enforced whii.h prohibits any
member from standing near the clerkV

The Speadei requeued ihe members to
take iheir sens and caused the rule io q-ies'

after repeated efforts that the offenders
could be induced lo leave the front of the
desk.
The vole on ihe motion to leconsider

o it was again decided thai salt should be
placed on the free list.
A moment afterwards, however, the
Speakci was called upon to vote. lie did
so, and in the negative. This made the
voie a lie, which was equal to t'.ie rejection
of the motion. Loud upplause again foil jw
ed. It subseqtinetly appeared, however, lliai
owing to the great confusion which pre
vaile.d, the Clcik had miscounted the vote,
and that it was yeas 105, nays 102, which
did nut give the Speaker the right lo vote,
he being permitted to do eo only when
his vole will change ihexcsull on any quej

A motion was ihen made to reconsitler
the vote, and il was .carried yeas 104
nays 102.
The effect of ihia waa lo bring the house
hack iieain to Ihe question, "Shall sail be
