:ANSWER TO THE SPEECH.
THE House of Reprefemahves unite,
with you in defying the effeasoi tht to
foisting m^Uty by,which the feat cf gov.
einrneM and other peris t our cttinn,
have, trendy been vifoed. In caQ
cur attention tb the htaßtj of its ft p^-
red ravages, and inviting us to confiferihe
expediency of exercififtg our cenffifu
tional powers ^ aid of the health laws of
the refyaive states, your reremmefoft -
tibn is fan&loned bj the dtastes ot ht-.
minify and liberal policy. On this in.
terming fubjea, we feel the necessity of
adopting every wife, expedient for pre.
rentings calamity so distressing to inci.
vidual fufferers and so prejudicial to our
national commerce.
That our finances are in a prosperous
fate notwitfiftauding the commerriU
derangements refitting from this calami
ty and from external embarrsfiments, is
a fatisfaftory manifeftation of the greac
extent, and solidity of the public rriour-
Ces. Conceded with this fitnation ot
our fifeal concerns, the assurance, that
thjiegal provisions for obtaining revenue
by dire& t^xatioa will fulfil the vie^s of
the lejfflature, is peculiarly acceptable.
Desirous as we are that all causes of
hoftiiity may be removed by the &roic&hle
adjustment of national differences, we
le^rn with fitnfaaio% that, in putfusac^
of cur treaties with Spain and wi^
Great Britain, advances have been made
for definitively fettling the contcoverfies
relative to the fe^berb andtbe rarfh
eaftera limits ofthe United States. ,&h
similar fentimerits have we deceived yeur
information, that therroce^mgi under
coinmiffiofi, authorized by the 'fire
treaties, affordio a refy^ble purrion
of oor citizens the profpea of a fin^ £e
cifion on their elates for maritime ityi
~ del committed by firijefis of those pew-
It would be the theme of mutual f/1-
citation, wereWaffored cf experiencing
similar moderation and justice stem the
French Republics between which and the
United Stated differences have unhappily
arisen.— But this is denied us by nag übi
mate failureef the measures which b,te
been taken by this government towards
an amicable adjufttnent of thole CiffeTca.
ces and by the various inadmissible pre
tensions on the part of that nation.
The continuing in terce the decree of
January left, to which yen have rocie
particularly pointed cur attention,ougtrt,
of nfelf, to be confidefed as denwuftrxrive
of the real intentions of tie French gcv.
ernment —That decree proclaims a pre
datory warfare against the unquefflonri ^
right# of neutral commerce ; which,
with our means of defence, cur fowreft
and our honor command ns to %&.
