On the day the i; j-indt r nos feercry was taken I off, your doors were croudec! wih persons anxious to he.:, th.s tremendous secret. I wit-! ntiled nothing but diftppoinr l irenc. Congress has appropria-! ted two millions of coilais 10: buy Morida. Is this all ? I lav< ‘ you not confiscated the public! dt kt ? Or at any event the Lou -! liana flock? Moft certainly vou ! hat e voted money to bribe 1 al Lyrand ? No, 1 afi'urc you, we nave done nothing more than appropriated two millio sos dol Lis for ihe purchale of Liorida, in a lawg containing preciiely the la i.e woids, w.th the one p..!T-tl or -h ,t | urpole, in the year 1803 md iopporied by the very per font who have denounced this measure. (jentieir.er. have at- Uii pted to draw diftindtion be ween the situation of the Uni ted States in the year IHO3, and i.i the year ißcb, lam not li) uncandid as to lav that the pre <ent differepets with Spain, art prtcilelv such as we had in the ‘cir ttfoj. ‘l'his however, 1 will fay—that every objection ur ;/d againlt ‘he pretent appropri uion, applies w.th equal foict j to the measure of rSoj. I e u- i examine what was the fguatio:;; of the United States with S J >t thele two p. riario. In tlie year 1803 Spain had : cornu.icted Spoliation* on oui i I .'ommerce to a confidorabie a mount, the payment of which iud been either wholly or in part tefufed. She had cut off the whole weflern country from an outl t to the by pro hi'mting a 1 epofit at Orleans,and refufin tto ariLn an rquivaLn: one clic.vhere, as ft puiated by tie ty. ‘rheremeviy :/opted by the ll -dtcvf wildom of the nati on v.as holding in rcaiincfs a d-tach uent olmilitig and ma king a lice: appropriation to buy LI or id.:. In the year i3oj, .Spain had retuf dan amicable a ijuftincnt of limits—had refuted to pay ,• iiatior.s on our commerce— had in one 11 ll.ir.ee violated oui territory. The remedy reforteu* to, has been to hold in readind - a. etachment of the militia, and o appropr. ice money tor the purchale of the biorida. I'liis was the lunation of the na tion at thele two periods, whether at either period, the wil.il courb has been purlued, 1 lhail not at tempt to prove. In buth calts the nation adopted the fame principle. To avoid war, if poi iible, and to purchale territory rather than fight for it. Ait the thong objections urge-d again!! the mealure at preient adepted, ippiy withe qual fort e to the mea ly.e adopted m iSoj. 1 heewe laws contain preciiely the fame >• or*iand neither Iptc.ij t,.*. ,bjefl (J appropriation* The- 1 cw of i 8c j was palled >n feure r ,. clofed doer'-. 1 he law of; 1806 was pafTed in the brae man -’ \nrr ‘The appropriation in 18 c3 1 was not recommended by ti.r executive,but founded on a n folution fumriitted by a 11 ember of the house of reprtfentatives The appropriation i t 18( 6, was nor recotnnntnded by the execu tive, bur fimnded on a resolution fob n rted by a member of the hotrie of rrprefentitives. Ihe object of appropriation in the | year *BO3 concealed lrom th.- pcople iw ive tronths. In the year 1806 made pubi c in a few weeks. Gentlemen may draw nice diflindions, but they will find it difficult to make people believe, that the mtclurc adopt ed in ißot, was wife and virtu ous, and the lame measure i/, if>c6, infamous. 1 appeal with co fidence to the people, the) will ta 1 mult fee, that this is tin very fame mealure adopted if ree years ago, without roife, a p.w containing tiie fame wor.:s, pals ed in ferret in the fame manner, and supported by the very per sons wlio have denounced this measure; When, however, *h : s rreafure fhri be fairly brought before riv !)tri;i ; 4 it will be Lund, tha 1:10 ■ ithlfamhng th* noise and t i . . cir which lias l ecn made, i •.he difFriencc between the ma il >r 1: y and minorif on <h s que | • t ion is not very conbdeiab e.— , Ev< ry member of the house ol ! 1-prefentatives admitted the ne jceiuty of doing something. j What were the remedies wtliir. our reach f rfi. To declare war. i id. Either to increase our flc.ii- Jing army for the purpife o. j druigthcning our posts or hold -1 ing in readiness a detachment of ! militia. 3d* To exchange ter ritory or topurchafe. As to (he firft of thefc, decla ring war, no it e-i her or the house of repiefentat vts w fried to pur ine the course. The gcr.riemar, from Virginia certainly did not. ( His re; ort speaks only the lan-! guage of peace—Ail die evils of! ar 10 this 0 u .trv, . re dv/elt on in that report w. n c ..e and labor. If, however, we hed not thi: proof, that lie did 1, 0 vvifh fer war with c'pain, ne has uvea un -1 equivocal proofs of it in his ar gumenis on anodier q eition A war with Spam we k> o,v must oe a war with Spain and France, j com aned. They are joined b) ! alkance onenfive and defen five, i l o a war ;.gainlt France and rp in co coined, ail the objeht- I ions urged against war with Eng jland, would apply with fu 1 ■ I force. it war with England X—’ would have increaiecl executive patronage and endangered the cor.’ftiuiuon ancl the liberty of tht people, lo alio, would war with France and spain combined—! we put war aside therefore, as a course which no man wilhed to pursue. The next cc-urfe was timer to increase our Handing troops or to ho and in readiness a detachment of Militia. Here was roaui for an honest diveifi7j of opinion. A maj rity of the iioule jirelc re.l vl,, ending on a militia. I was of r.nat number. I t!iou_-ht the itan ii;-j ttoops in tha: country lufficienc h r the protection of it, uniels Spain de termined to force a war. Sub- Lquent events have fiiewn the I *Ol lectnels of that op mon; No violation of territory has taken place finer the tale of the Kem pers, except by twenty Spaniards who croired the Sabine, and were driven oil’ by the American troops* The t.ext course was either to exchange territory or to ■ purchase. A majority of the iioui'e were in favor of both.— I was of that number. On the Fait fide of the Miffilfippi there ; was territory to which Spain had an undoubted rich:. Tnere was territory to which the United b'tates lu-d an undoubted right— and there was territory which noth Spain and the United 6'.ate 1 claimed. On the Wet! fide o: the the situation was (the .amc. Etch nat. .n !:] a r I , ur.coubtJ.l right to territory ? ,. c . there was territory claim.-,-j j both. It was not to bes J ppo fed that d’pain, while foe i.elc l the territuiy to the eafi: cf tht j Perdido, wouid be disposed to relmquifli the claim which fi ;c ; lets up to the country between* the Perdido and Mdl'nlippi. j c ’ was necessary to purthafe the ter ritory to the eafl of the Perdido, j to which .Spain has an undoubt ed right, and after difpofinu o> which it wnuld certainly be tween the Perdido and iVhlnffip pi, on obtaining an equivalent lurrender on the part of rhe Uni ed States to claims wrfi ot the Miflilf.ppi. I lee nothing d.fho i.craois in .n.e truulactjt.f), and ready it appears,to me that the difference between the nisjoricx and minority is narrov eu ,j own to this. The majority v/ere in favor of militia. The minority Oi Lanu ug tfoopr.. Ine major-! uy w.re in favor of Exchange! and purchale. The minority Tn * lavor of exchange only. Un the importance of Florida to the United States, I {ball no’ fay any thing. The sues to this amendmen. have admitredits im portance in the fulled extent, & their wiilingnefs to acquire it on fair and honorable tern 3. All objections nave been made not to thg purehafe but to the iiioae. it is {aid v, : e haye appro |priated mcney not lor •.hale oi Florida, but to induce France to bully Spain out of her right. On this fubjfc!, I have never had but one opinion. 1 have al 'ays believed, and i fiill believe,’ luu the money wili be fairly om-1 in jiurcliafing Florida of! lie rightful owner. The gentle man fiom Virginia will do rre chejuftice to ifcollecT, that 1 held this language with closed ctoors. 1 l,o!d it now in rhe nre ienceuf the people. That Franci miv ultimately get the money is liighly probable, and why ?

For my own part I care not what uh. Spain makes or the money paid to her for Florida. Ic is of no importance to me as a teprefen tative, nor to the people. That the purchase will be fairly made of 6’pain, and the mo nc : paid to Spam, i have no doubt. The government dare not employ it m any ether way.
