CONGRESS, THURSDAY, JANUARY 31, ISII. • IMPORTANT MESSAGE. • The PRESIDPNT by message transmitted the follow. ing copies of letters from the Agents of the United States in France, to Mr. Secretary Smarr, viz. Copy of a letter from Jonathan Russo!, Esq. Charge d'Atrairer of the United States at Paris, to Mr. It. Smith, Secretary of . State, dated Paris, Dec. 11, Ism. Ste—On the evening of the 9th inst. I learnt that si the Essex frigate had arrived at L'Orient on ther+th„, -rend had been put under qnatantine .tor five days for want of a bin of health, doting which time the Mes venger is not allowed to come on shore. At the same time that I received this intelligence, I was also in formed that the brig New Orleans patlcet, was seized at Bourdeaux, under the Berlin and Milan decrees, by the director of the customs at that place. The simul taneous occurrence of these two events, formed, in my opinion, a crisis which required a prompt decision of this Government. Under this impression, I imme diately addressed to the Duke of Cadore the note of which the inclosed is a copy, and in which I thought it politic to remonstrate with firmness against the pro ceeds of the director of the'customs at Bourdeaux, 1 and weave the Government here at liberty to disavow them. This disaxowaf, however, I am persuaded, depends entirely on the nature of the dispatches brought here by the Essex. I feel, therefore, the most lively anxiety to receive them. In the mean time I give this letter a chance of reaching you by .2.: vessel about leaving Bourdeaux for New York. Since my last the Hanseatic towns have been annexed to this empire. I have informed Mr. Pinkney of the rie-: rival of the Essex, and suggested to him the possibility that the Proclamation of the President had come out by her, in order that he might, if he thought proper, make a final attempt to obtain a repeal of the Orders in Council,.while it was yet in the power of the Bri tish Ministry to do it with a good grace. I have the honour to be, Ace: (Signed) JONA. RUSSLI.L. Hon. Robert Smith, Secretary of State, United States. SIR. nusu. TO Till DUKE DE CADORE. Paris, Dectmther 10, 1810. . . JOT }-havie this moment learnt that the American brig New Orleans Packet, lately arrived at Bourdeaux, has, with her cargo, the bonaide property of citizens of the United States, and laden at the port of New York, been seized by the Director ot. the Customs Ainsisie the...Berlio or Milan deaves. I rase also been frrormed, chatihis Director of the Customs, not sath fied with this hardy violation of the solemn assurances given by your Excellency to General Armstrong on the sth of August last, aid confirmed by your letter to him of the 7th September, that these decrees were revoked, and would cease to operate from the Ist of November, has, without regard to the plighted faith of his Government, announced his intention of selling the provisions which constitute a part of the cargu, under the pretext that they are perishable. The clear and unequivocal manner in which the revocation of the Berlin and Milan Decrees were an nounced by your Excellency, forbids me for a moment to suppose, that the violent proceedings of this man will be sanctioned by his Majesty the Emperor and King, or that the least delay will be allowed in plac ing the property thus arrested at the free disposition of the rightful owner, whose confidence alone in the good faith with which it becomes nations ;ft perform their engagements, has brought him to the place where, he is so inhospitably treated. I am persuaded that your Excellency will not, on this occasion, attempt to remind me of the conditions on which the revocations of those decrees were predi cated. These conditions were in the alternative, and the performances of either is sufficient to render abso lute and perpetual that revocation. It is of no im portance that the British Orders in Council have not been withdrawn, if the United States, in due time, perform the condition which depends alone on them. And what is this condition ? Why, to execute an act of Congress against the English, which to be thus ex ecuted, requires the previous revocation of those very decrees. The letter of your Excellency, of the sth of August, appears to have been written with a full knowledge of this requisition of the law, and mani festly with the intention to comply with it, in order that it might be competent for the President of the United States to exercise the contingent power which had been given to him. It will not be pretended, that the decrees have in fact been revoked ; but that the delay of the United States in performing the condition presented to them authorises their revival. The case of the New Or leans Packet is the first which has occurred since the Ist of November, to which the Berlin and Milan de. trees soul(' be applied, and if they be applied to this case, it will be difficult for France to spew one soli. tory instance of their having been practically revoked. As to the delay on the part of the United States, there had been none. No official information of the; letter of your Excellency of the sth of August, left France for the United States, owing to circumstances which it was not in the power of General Armstrong to controul, until the 29th of September, and to this moment I have not learnt that such official informa tion has been there received. I might indeed have learnt- it, and been able now to have communicated to your Excellency the measures on which the President has decided in consequence of it, had not the frigate, the Essex, dispatched by him, been put under qua. rantine on her arrival at L'Orient, for the want of a Bill of Health, and the Messenger thereby detained since the 4th of this month. 1 will not madellake to decide whether a bill of IS 5 (PRICE SIXPENCE.HALISIIST: health might in enurtesy to be exacted of a frigate of a friendly power, coming in the wittier season. from is place not known to have been lately afireted With any .malignant disease; but surely the delay which this exaction occasions, cannot be imputed to a want of due diligence on the part of the American Government. It is from this view of the subject that I am tho =y Convinced, that the application of due Berlin ilan Decrees, by the Director of the Customs at Bourdeaux, to the New Orleans packet, will not be ap proved by his Majesty, but that prompt and efficient measures will be taken to correcia procedure, whkh, if persisted in, might produce a state of things, which it is.the obvious interest of both nations t4l avoid. I pray your Excellency to be sawed of my most distin guished consideration, tic. • (Signe d) SONATIIAN RUSSELL. 'COPT OF A LETTER PROM CND. MEYER, TO R. SMITH, ESQ. SECRETARY OF STATE. ,• • - Uaft . ad States Consulate---Bota[Jeaaa,Doe. 11,1810. •SraLThe brig New Orleans packet r efigew Yolk, Goptain.Harris, mentioned in my former letter, has since been seized by the Collector, and her largo has been put in the Imperial Custom-House. The schooner Friendship, of and from Baltimore, Captain Snow, has been sequestered. NON-INTERCOURSE LAW: WASHINGTON, FEB. 2. IVIT. EPPES matted, 'that the Committee of the whole be discharged from fur ther consideration of the Non-Intercourse EnfotcM; , Bill, and that it be referred to the Committee on Fo reign.Aelations, and assigned.as a reason, the pecu liar situation of our foreign relations, and the cloud which at present appeared to overhang them, and until it should be dissipated, he thought we ought to make provision for the relief of our cititens under the clperation of the Non-intercourse Law. Mr. RANDOLPH said, he came to the Hi ..ise yester ' day, prepared with a Resolution for a repeal of the . Non-intercourse Law, but could not obtain the floor. He was for acting with promptitude. He said, no thing was farther from his wish' than to hurt the feelings of any Gentleman ; but the House well knew the retreats we have been obliged to make from our Embargo, Non-intercourse Law, &c.- He would ask all sides of the House to lay their hands. on their hearts ant say what benefit has been derived to our selves from sue restrictive measures. Why do we, ' continue measures altogether imbecile as to foreign nations and destructive as to ourselves ? ,He consider ed the President had issued hi la:nation upoe a , mere promise on the partot Ilona rte. He mentioned the late seizure? under the Berlin and Aldan Decrees, and the indignity offered in the purts of France to afri gate of the United States, as lase as December, after the proclatnation of the President' must have been known. His object was to relieve the President, by repealing the law. mpon which she proelmnatiOn Was lounded. Mr. R. therefore moved' io .amend the motion Mr. Eppes, by adding, that mid Com mittee be instructed to report a bill for the repeal of - the Non-Intercourse Law. Mr. Ems thought the amendment of his Col league ought rather to forin a distinct Resolution, and be committed to a Committee of the whole Houses than to be added to his motion. He did not mean • at this time to enter into a discussion of our foreign relations. The President had acted in pur suance of law. He said no man felt with more sen sibility the wrongs we have received from France than he did.; nor was more ready to redress them. But he could not consent to violate the faith of the nation pledged by Legislative authority. He • said we did not yet know of a single violation of the revocatias of the Berlin and Milan decrees—that we don't know the circumstances under which the late seizures wee.: made. Until he knew, he would not enforce the law ; but until then, he would not repeal. It had been de-' Glared, by competent authority, that the Decrees had been revoked. It it should turn rut that the Presi dent had been deceived, it would only prove that he was actuated by that desire for peace which has uni formly influenced him. Mr. RANDOLPH said it would give him pleasure to accommodate his colleague, if he could do it onsis candy. But it is known that the Non-Intercourse takes effect this day. The effect of continuing the law, is not to do the enemy any harm, but to reduce the prices of the produce of his and his colleagues' constituents. As to the Berlin and Milan Decrets, he said it made no-difference whether we are plundered and robbed miller those Decrees, or tinder any other Decrees He said it seemed we had become such formalists in poll. tics, that it depended altogther upon the manner and hot the substance of the plunder or robbery. He really wished to get rid of this system of wretched expedients' Mr. Miltneu. said, he was glad the' subject had been brought before the House. He hailed it, IS a prelude to an emancipation from our commercial restrictions, which began as early as the year 1808. He voted with his friends in 1805, for the partial Non-Importation Law, which was the best measure that could be found, but was attended with no sen sible effects. He was also in favour of the embargo, which" he thought was a second act of American Independence !! ! and would have answered the purpose, if it had not been for the impossibility of executing it. In taking a review of those past measures, as they had not answered any valuable purpose, he was in favour of giving them up, and . ( trying some new plan. • Mr. RANDOLPH then called for the reading of the Duke of Cadore's letter to Mr. Armstrong, in which be says the sequestrations which Mr; A. complains of were by way of reprisal for the Non-Intercourse Law ; which letter was read. The Amendment was negatived--the Ayes and Noes being taken, there were Ayes 45, Noes 70. Mr. Randolph then moved an Amendment, to in struct said Committee to bring in a Bill to suspend said law, which was also negatived, Ayes 40. - - The questioAhen resurtilig, whether it should b• recommitted to the Committee on Foreign Relations —it was carried.'
