A warm debate is now gobrg on which is likely to Oni.t'mue to a late hour The report, however, ♦i t be adopted maugreall-upp-uhion, which will bn g Mr Crawford out w»thfl.>iiig c"loors.

" The select committee of yhe House of R-pre- Set a'ivis, to whom was r, /erred tbe memorial o< Mr. tvlwards, impeaching (he i.lRcial conduct o* Mr,. Crawford, lia* made * report entirely exhon 0: ini; him. The repot* is sufficiently condo s'. (i»y, the National Intclligenctr,) though, fr- 'Vi a ti yard to the digijty of the house, it pro h:, y docs not bestow, upon charges which it de Clares to be unfounded, the decided rep-obitio». which they merit. Considering the character ot the committee, however, and the unanimity of tl.mr report, it must have a decisive effect. The foiuwingjare the heads of the report of the com nn'**jo:-» . First, That the evidence referred to. ndexu (hi m, dyes not support the charge of having mi ..managed the public funds. Second, That the uncurrent notes, mentioned in 'he second charge, appear, by evidence satis. ftc t ory to the committee, to have been received end deposited by th- Public Receivers, at a time wl.'O they were receivable under the resolutioi of Congress of 1816; tdat, in the principal case t th ,<>f the Bank of Missouri* the Bank did nut Hi n - itself responsible for such notes as cash,and th refore, the Secretary was bound to receive ti - m from the Bankftbxt, although the banks ol Tombeckbe and Edwardsville were liable to sc count for such deposited, a« cash, if the construe tlonr w.ich the committee gives to their contracts bi. correct, yet that both the Secretary and the bi>nks expressed a difftj^nt opinion as to the lb wing of those contract^ and that the Secreta ry in receiving glS.OOOIrom the one, and £20,000 fro the other of those banks, appears to have ♦ ! according to what be supposed to be the ri. i*a of the parti, s, and with a proper regard to th hi'erest of the United States, Under the cir ci .-.lances which then existed. 't hird, That no internal misstatement hat been nv ..0 to the House of the amount of «ncurrent b' eceived from the banks, although a sum of jf 0 .if such bills was omitted through mistake. >. urth, That, although the Secretary may have tt>’ strued the effect of some of the contracts wt . :.e banks to the extent before mentioned, the committee find no grounds for the charge th .t he has misrepresented them, inasmuch as the Conti acts themselves were submitted with hisre- p .rr to the House. Vif h, Tbf.l the Secretary did omil to commum. pate to Congress the reasons which led him to di. rc t the deposite of public monies in the three lcca! banks of Chiliicothe, Cincinnati and Louifc- vif., where the bank of the United States bad Branches; but there is no reason for supposing that any concealment was intended, or that the emission was occasioned by design. 8ixtb, That, in some instances, papers, called for by resolutions of the House, have" not been communicated with other papers sent in answer to such calls, but that these omissions have h.sp. pened either fiom accident, or from a belief that the papers, so omitted, were immaterial, or not called for # and that there is no evidence that any document or information has been withheld from improper motives. Having already expressed the opinion that this Investigation ought not to be terminated, until the person pressing the charges shall have been ex. ijmined, and regretting the circumstances which fender such an examination impracticable,-during IhV present session of Congress, and thinking that Mr Edwards msy be expected at Washington within a few days, the Committee frelit their du t) to recommend to'the Hbuye that they be re paired to sit,after the adjournment, for the ptir pose ol taking his Examination, if an opportunity tfli.tfl bt 4 presented.
