governor Claiborne, on the fubjrft of a
fmail t.ibe of Alibama Indians, on the
Ueftern fide of the Mifliflippi, of
about a dozen families. Like other* etiattc
tribes in that country, it ia undctAuod that
they have hitherto moved from place to
place, according to their convenience, with
out appropriating to thcmfclves exclusively
any particular territory ; but having now
become habituated to fume of the occupa-
Hons of civilized life, they with for a Axed
reftdcnce. I (uouofe it v/iii be the interest
ts the U. States 10 encourage the wander
ing tribes cf that country to reduce thcm
fclves to Axed habitation!*, whenever they
arc so difpoled. The ett.ibidinnert of towns
and growing attachment to them, will fur
nifh in Tome degree pledges of their peacea
ble and friendly conduct. The case of this
particular tribe is now submitted to the
coofidcration of congrefe.

Dsc, 30, 1808.
On motion of Mr, Nelson the house went
into a committee of the whole, Mr. Mari,
on in'the chair, on the report of the com. I
n w ce cf military a:.u naval'affairs, tor I
riikling fifty thousand volunteers, agreeably
to the propofiticn of ihefecrttaiy at war.
Mr. Nell on advocated the object of the
report, on the grounds, that although the
American people were as patriotic, and e
yen mote 10, than ihofe ot any oi’ber nation,
and would willingly re fort to the field in de
fence of their country upon a 4 udden emer
gency, jet if it (bould be ncceiissy to hive
in the field a dilpofabfe military force for
any length of time, it vvouid be proper to
make a mote fpecsfij organization of the
phyfiqal strength of the nation. As the
committee had endeavoured to make th« re
foiution as unexceptionable as p.-fihic, Mr,
I Neifon hoped there would be no objection
to the palfage of it. J
Mr. Qjinccy did not rife to opoofe the
-mealurt ; bat merely to 'enquire of the chair
man of the committee who made the report,
what ,nan cf the prefidem’s meifige did re
late to military and naval etUuiiflvments,
for he cou'4 not fi..J any (Wh psllftgc in it.
1 He thought the reibluiions in rei.iion to the
* references of the ievetai parts of the presi
dential a.efoige had been copied from thole
cf a former itfiion, pnd calkd he attention
of the houA* toihe Angular fact of a' reference
of a fuhjecl which did not exile in the tnef
fage, and fa id that thofs who undertake the
management of tb- fc things ill., aid .veil con, \
fuler the futjett matter before they made di- 1
vifiorrof it and eaufed it to be referred.
Mr. Dawson fad, ahhough he did not
conceive it material, yet toe prefiiciu's
Kieffiige did contain paffigcs relative i<j mili
tary alraits, See. £Mr. tl> then read cer
tain parts of rhe mefltfge touching detach
menis of miiitii:, and 'recommending the
adoption of nuafa.es for the feuuitymf the
country.)
The report was agreed u» by the commit
tee of the whole, which then r.'fe and re
ported tile fame to (he bnufe • when the
house taking the report into cor {‘uieratior’,
Mr. Oardeoier rose and inveighed again ft
the efnbargo policy geper.-dly ; inquired
I what the intent ton was by railing these
jo,ooo men ? was it to be war ? War,
(fsid h-J in addition to the all efficient em.
largo! If indeed, we were to have war,
it would he nec- fl’-ir/ to raise forces. He
did not like this mode of !*gi{latiug. See.
Mr. G, dwelt for a coniine: aide time in
h:s ufa&l (train #f act inmnious inventive upon
the present policy of the admir.ittrati.on.
Mr. Ep ea made a very impfeflive fpecch
df fomc uuciidon, l it; ably vindicated the 1
raei-furcs of the government, reviewed the !
pofiare of 01 r public affair*, and depicted '.
the menacing .rutude of foreign nations to
wards us, thence (hewing the propriety of
adopting the mentis of fupp.nting our rights
by military prcim twins. He quoted a p»f.
sage from a public and official .iec’fyiatit/i of

Mr, Speaker (aid, gentlemen were fre
quently in the habit of interducting matters
out of the houfc, Aich as publications in the
news-papers, &q. He was rather of opto
ion, however, that it was not ftriftly in
order to refer to points and circaroftancear
which were foreign to the proceedings of
the house.
Mr: G. W. Campbell called upon Mr.
Qi, to fay if he had any alluilon to him?
Other gentlemen might take it in what hgbc
they pkafed.
Mr, Quincy said hr would gratify him.
He did not ailude to .C. Mr. fa id
he nnderlford gentlemen. It was not this
id'ufion, but the strength of his argument
that matte them wince,
Mr. Qiiincy was proceeding to argue the
unccnftitutionaiity of the embargo laws,
when
Mr, Jackson called to order. He faid*
on?very qtieftion that came before the hoofe,
the embargo was brought up. There had
been too much departure ffam order, not
only in the house, but in the galleries j*
and with refpeft to lire latter, the difordcc
came Irom a quarter from whence, above alt
others, it ought not to have proceeded :
from Ihithh fubjcfts, certain of whom,
while the gentleman from Virginia (Mr*
Eppes) was had made diilur
bance.
Mr. Speaker gave the door keeper orders
to keep art eye to the galleries, and give no*
tice of any improper behavior, that means
might be taken to check it, *
Mr. Jackson (-ontinalng) laid his ob
ject was to know, whcM? in difotiffing a '
q ieftion for raising 50,000 men, it Was in
order to enter into an enquiry relative te
the conlHtutiopalSty of the embargo ?
Mr. Speaker said it was difficult to draw
a proctfe line, gentlemen having indulged
in such a'wide latitude.
Mr. Qamcy, (after fotre cypbnations
from Mr. Kppi-s, with refped td (he tenor
of his'argument) proceeded, fora fhott thus*
w ith regard to theiinconflicotionality of the
embargo, &c.
Mr, Macon mbved to flrlketmf ofthc re*
foluiion the words fifty thutjividfif and
the words “ two yntan, to as to leave Hlaf&tt
in their places.
On the qatdion for (tricing out the firft,
it was negatived—. l7 to 47—the Speaker
voting in (he negative.
On the question to strike out tha fcconcl,
it was earned. Ayes 52, Noes 49. '
The resolution was then paffccl. Ayes

On motion of Mr. Nclfon the tefolotioa
