CONGRESS,

+ The following is the address of the Sen
ate, in answer to the Speech delivered
by the President of the United States,
" at the opening of the Session :
To ‘hqcl I1{’_;{1«:3 nggz 1(1‘ of the United States.
» ? .
THE'comrgxpnicaﬁons you have thought
proper to make in your Speech to both
Houles of Congress on the opening of their
present feflion, afford additional proofs of
the artention, integrity, and firmnefs, which
have always marked your official charaller,
. 'We cannot but approve of the measures
you had taken to alcertain the {tate and de
cline of the contagious sickness which has
folately afflifted ge city of Philadelphia ;
and the pleasing circamftance that Congress
is. now aflembled at"thap place,” without
hazard to the health of itymembers, evinces
the propriety of your having postponed a
determination tp convene the National Le
- gillatare at another place. We shall take
10to consideration the law of 1794, on this
' fubjell; and will readily concur 12 any a
- mendment which may be deemed expedient.
- It would have given us much pleasure to
bave received your congratulations on’ the
-~ re-cftablilhment of peace in Europe and the
-restoration of security to the persons and
~ propesty of our citizens from injustice and
~ violence at sea ; but though those events so
desirable to our - country, epd the world,
- bave not taken place, yet we have abundant
-cause of gratitude to the Great Disposer of
- buman events, for interior tranquility and
personal security, for propitious seasons,
-prosperous agriculture, produftive fitheries,
_ 2nd general improvement, and abové all,
for a rational {pirit of civil and religious li
-~ berty—and a calm, but fleady determination
- to support ounr foverciguty, againl all open
and {ecret attacks. : :
- Wedearn with fatisfaltion: that our En
- voys Extraordinary 1o the French Republic
- had fafely arrived in Europe, and were pro
- cecding tothe {cene of negociation—and
whatever may be the result of the mission,
~ weare perfe@lly {atisfied, that nothing on
your: part-has been omitted, which could in
! u;yhhay conduce to a fuccelsful concluﬁ:t
- of the negoeistion, upon ternig: compatible
} with.the ziet-y, hmog, and intéreft of the
- United States——and we are fully convinced,
" that in the mean time, a manifeflation of
that unanimity and ‘energy,’ of which the
- people of the United States have given such
striking 'P:oofs-asand a proper cxertion of
L these relources of national defence, which
- we: poflefs, will eflentially contribute to the
-preservation of peace and the attaipment of
- juitice.
We think, fir, with you, that the com
merce of the United Statesis essential to the
grow:h, comfort and prosperity of our coyn
“try-—and that the faitﬁ ofplocj_ety is pledged
for the prefervadon of the pghts of com
- mercial and feafariog, no less than of other
?ﬁz;ns:-.-and even if our ncgcgfftiono with
rapce should terminate favorably, and the
- war in Europe ceale, yet the slate of society
- which unhappily dptevails in so great a por
tion of the world, and the experience of
pafl times, under better circumflances, uni
ted 10 warping us that 3 commerce so exs
-tensive and which holds out so many temp
- tations to Jawlels plunderers, can never be
fafe without prote@ion—and we hold our
{elves pbliged by every tic of duty which
binds us to our constituents, to promote
and concyr 1n such meaferes of marine de--
. fepce as may conyince our merchants and
{camen that their rights are not facrificed
nor their injaries forgotten,
.We regret, that notwithftandingthe clear
and explicit germs of the Trcaty betweep
the United States and his Catholic Majefly,
the Spanish garrifons.are not yet wi.thd'r.awn
from our territory, nor the running of the
‘boundary line commenced. The United
‘States have heen faithful in the performance
of their obligations to Spain, and had reason
to expet 2 compliance equally prompt on
the part of that power,.—We flill, bowever,
induﬁgc the hope, that the convincing an
swers which have been given to the objec
tiops stated by t‘hc;‘SPanigﬂx officers, to the
immediate execution of the Treaty, will
‘have their proper cffe@ ; and that this
Treaty, so mutually beneficial to the con
tralling parties, will be’ finally observed
~with good faith. 'We, therefore, entirely
approve of your determifiation to continte
in readiness to receive the pofls, and to run
the line of partitian between our territory |
' and that of the King of S)’iﬁn.‘ -Attempts
to alienate the iﬁ‘c&dﬁt’o “the Indians, to
