Riport erf the committee to nPom nns re.
f.rred the te.eff-g of the Prrjiient of the
United Huts, of the 6 th D (ember
18 ‘5.
The committee have beheld with jatt
indignation -he hollile fpi’it rnaoifciicd
by the court of Madrid towards the go
vernment of th<. U. S. in withholding
the ratification of its convention with
us, alihougirfixned by its own inimtler
under the <ft f his fov'rrign, unless

To a government having interests dis
tirdd from ihofe of its jfeople and disre
garding their welfare, here 18 ample
cause tot 3 formal declaration of war, on
tin part of the U. b. and inch, Cul they
obey the impolle of their feelings alont,

would rot hefkn'e to recommend 1 but

■--e endangered by their bottility, peace
muil always be dtfirable, so long as it is
compatible with the honor and inteictli
of the community-
Whilst the U. t>- continue burthened
with a debt, which annually abforba two
thirds of their revenue, aad duties upon
imports constitute the oniy refourct
from which that revenue can be railed,
without resorting to fytlems of taxation,
not more ruinous and opprefiive, than
they are uncertain and precarious, t,,c
b. tt intcrelb of the union cry aloud for
peace. When that debt (hall hare been
difeharged, and the resources of the na
tion thereby liberated, then may we ra
tiorally txp.td to rath, even in time ot
war, the supplies which our frugal infti
tutioi s require, without recurring to the
haieful and deftruftive expedient cf
li uus ; then, ar.d not till then, may we
bid d> ti.i-rce to ‘he world. Ene present
ni fi i> p crtharly auspicious tor this
iji ji, and defrsble wo.k. Now, ifiver,
Ihe ua nal debt is to be paid, by fu. h
ni,.a.-, u'. an*ngvm;nts as will accelerate
extip&ior by reaping the vich har
IvcAof reutrsitty, and thua providing for
that diminution of revenue, which ex
perierce tea hes us to expect on the ge
neral pacification of Europe. Ana the
committee indulge a hope, that, in the
changed afpeCt of alTairsio that quirtev,
Spsiu will find motives for a juit fulfil
ment of her ftipnlations with us, and an
amicable fetilcrm-nt of limits, upon
terms not more beneficial to the U. b
than advantageous to herfelf, —ftcuritig
toiler an ample bsrri r on the fide ot
Mixico. and to us the countries watered
by the Milliffippi, and to the eastward of
it. But vvhiltt the committee perceive,
in the general uproar of Europe, a Itate
of things peculiarly favo coleto thepcace
able purtuit of our betl iutereils, they
are neither Infinfi'le to the indignity,
which has been offered on the part of
Spain, nor unwilling to repel umiiar oat
rage. On the fubjed of felf defence,
when the territory ot the U. S. is intui
ted, there can be but one opinion
whatever diif reuce may exut on the
queltion, whether tliat protection which
