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.

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.
