On motion uf Mr. Burrill it was recant

frith an amendment striking out the follow-
in? word*, which had been heretofore ad
ded, a* an amendment to the original rrso
lotion viz. ••and if the legislature of any

merit, pro, ee Orion, and settlement of can.
trirtemies between two or mure state*
(nv referring them to the investigation
and decision of the supreme court)
Mr. William*, of Trim, offered an adih
tonal section, providing that the validity
of private claims snail not beafleited In
Soy decree of the supreme court. Mi.
W. offer' d sundry observations in suppoi t
of this amendment; and was replied to lit
Mr Talbot, who denied the right ol con
gress to make such a provision.
Me. Williams answered, that this prill,
•eiplc had been already acted on by
«tner states, in similar controversies, vie
Pennsylvaniaznd Virginia, and Virginia
and Tennessee, and tnat it was consistent
with justice and equity.
Mr. Crittritlen followed, with ergo
merits against the power of congress In
adopt tlii* provision; as it was a question
for judicial decision, orTor legislative pm
visions of the contending states.
Mr. William* replied, and attempted
to shew'that it was both competent and ex
' pedteitt for congress to make th# provision
be had proposed.
Mr. Bppea moved so to amend the bill as to
to confine its operation to the controversy
' between the states of Kentucky and Ten
nessee; and offered sundry reasons in sup
port of his motion.
-■Mr. Burrill opposed tne motion, on th"
ground that if congress hail the right to
legislate in this case, they had in aTI other
•ifiilar cases; and titafit was better (olt g
late for all cases at this time, than to leg.,
late in detail, as casra may arise. The fat
trr he deemed both unconstitutional and
inexpedient.
Mr. ISppcsreplied, that the gentlemen’s
Arguments, if they proved any thihg, prov.
*«d too much; as he himself had consented
to limit the exercise of the general power
given to congress, to the particular case
of disputed boundaries.

proper to make it adequate to its object,

Mr. Burrell approved the object, but
lid not think it right that the whole fund

ol the asaou.il' themselves, that •a tax nl

The legislature ul Maryland hare recent

indeed disgraceful, that such a measure’
t'lould be adopted m one of the republics
of America,at a timr when even the bi
goted iiionarths of Burnpe are removing
tho-e line- of r< ligiousdivlinctioti which are
inconsistent with a sincere devotion to
tne Almighty Father ot all. When such
proceedings once begin, there is nil calcu
lating where they will stop: if the iegixl.,.
ture uf Maryland have the right to dia-
tranenise any portion of the Ireenien of
tnat state, because they believe in the God
ol Abrniam, La ic and Jac. b, they may next „
decide which of the various sects are the
true chri-tains, and disfranchise all the
rest.- We had considered tne election
ol the elegant Unitarian church, in Balti
more, an honorable evidence of the liber
ality of a state fiist settled by a pjiticiA
lariy tenacious sect; we now find, however*
that the honor belongs to Baltimore alone;
and it will not surprise ii-, should the
Unitarians ere lung be politically excom
