HOUSE OF rejresentattfes.
M Ildar, January 13. /
A report was brought in from the
fecretarv of the treasury on the iub
jecl of th. tonnage.
Ordered to he printed.
‘The house then, agreehly to order
of the day, went into a committee
of the whole, nir- Trumbull in the
chair, on the report of the lecretary
of Rite, relative to the lituatton of
our commercial relations with fo
reign countries.
The relolutions proposed by nr.
Madiion, Some daysfiute, a copy of
which we gave, it will be recobedeci
were before the committee.
Mr. Smith (S.C.), rule. He hoped
that it would be in order to take into
view the general scope and tetionr o
the whole body of relolutions before
tlie committee. . . .
Amongst the various duties o 11©
legislature under the conlbtuuoo,
none appeared to him more impoitant
than those which had for object the
regulation of commerce, as they mu
involve the conli leration of a great
variety ol interests. _ .
These interests open a copious he la
for dilcufUon, as they ailect the agti
culture, navigation and manufadures
of a country: this being conhdered,
the committee, he hoped, would,
viewing the importance of the iuo
ject in Yhe fame light he law it, ex
! cute him if he took much of their tune
in adverting to a variety of facts con
nected with, it.
As the committee were on the re
port of the fecretarv of fh'te on a
commercial fubjetft, he Ihotud not go
into political conftderations, wmc
might by lome be considered as in a
degree connected ; lie hoped . other
members would lee the propriety o
pursuing the lame plan. It would
argue a diltrult of itrength ot the
ground on which the relolutions pi o
pofed Hand, if the advocates for
the resolutions permitted thetnlelves
to recur to politics to iupport theai*
He imagined it wou'd be right to dis
miss the consideration of all questions
relative to Indians, Algerines and
Western Posts, at the present time.
There will be a time, and perhaps
not far and ft mt, when these questions
will come under consideration ; when
this happened, he said, he should be
prepared to give liis opinion with
finnnefs, and according to what he
conceived the true in ter efts of the
country ; but the fubjetft, he conceiv
ed, was not properly connected with
the present, which gives of it lei E
fufficient scope for argument; he
iliould not therefore mix them.
The present is a delicate crisis ;
this country ftnee the revolution has
probably never been in so critical a
situation ; it ought then to be weigh
ed with calm reflection and delibera
tion, paftions should not be substitu
ted for reason, and thedeofion ought
not to be founded on narrow or
prejudiced views, F
The report of the secretary of ftaf
is before the committee ; it gives a
[6 Dollars per nun.
