Congressional Eloquence.
——o—
— following is the maiden Speech of Mr. Pur
tynce, on the fubjed of making provifon for car
rfyg into effia the Louisiana Treaty.
Mr. PURVIANCP.—Iam clearly arid dotidedly iq fi-
Ybr of the resolution on your table, premising the-appro
priation, for carrying the treaty between France and this
country into effeft , and I finitely regret that in doing so,
I Shall a& adversely to the general sentiment of the gen
tlemen With whom I confefs with picture and with pride,
1 have hitherto politically affociatcd.
It is true I am, and always have been opposed so the
general tenor of the present administration. I't has hot ap
peared to me to possess that bold, commanding afpe&, that
cred and resolute front, which ought to be affixmed by the
Executive of a free people, when claiming fatisfadion for a
wrong sustained; it has nor Shewn that Areng, muscular,
aftletic Shape, which is calculated to intimidate aggression,
or which is enabled to refill it ; nor ha's it appeared to me
to have demonitrated that firm, dignified, manly tone of
virtue and of spirit, which reftirig on the love of a free peo-
^ andconfeious of their Strength, can alk for the prompt,
direct, and unequivocal fatisfa&oh to which it is entitled,
and being denied, can take it , it has not appeared to me
like the veteran chief, willing to gird his loins in defence of
his country's rights, but (if I may use the m^a componerc
parvis) it has in my mind m&c resembled the militia fub
' Altern, who directed his fd!diers not to fire do the enemy,
left the enemy might fire again.
Under such an adminiftfation, it has appeared to me bet
ter to obtain the ceded territory, on any terms, than not to
have it at all. If we do not possess the spirit or the means
of dotag ourselves justice, it were then better that we bribe
thofc whb are in a situation to molcft us, and prevent them
doing us an injury which we cannot or which we will not
avenge. There are but two ways of maintaining our in
dependence as a nation—men and money—since we did
hot use the firft, we must have recourse to the last. One of
these two we mould be compelled to resort to if France
pined poftffion of Louisiana, and we had better resort to
it now. I deny that they have as yet gained pCTeffion—
they have not received any delivery of the four redoubts
which garaifon and command the country, nor have they
A finglc armed foldicr there, except thafe few which are
particularly attached to the equipage of the colonial prefed.
—ls, fir, we are obliged to retort to the neceflity of pur
chasing their friendship, after they had procured an eflab
lifhment, it would net be confined to one instance of hu
miliation an<racknowledgement, on opr part, or one instance
only of insult on theirs. If we pnrehafed their friendihip
once, we should be compelled to make annual contributions
to their avarice, and be anna ally futjeded to their iofolence.
Repeated coneeffions would only produce a repetition of
injury, and, at last, when we had completely com promitted
our national dignity, and offered up our last cent as an ob
lation to Gallic rapacity, we should theh be farther from
conciliation than ever. ^ The spirit of tinivcrfal domination
instead of being allayed by the means which had been used
for its abatement, ,ou|d rage wth redoubled fury; elated
With the facrifiecs which had been intended to appease it;
it would grow more fierce—it would fcoo Stride across the
Miffifippi,and every encroachment which conquest or which
cunning could effect might be expected ; the tomahawk of
the savage, and the knife of the negro would confederate
In the league, and there would be no interval of peace, un
til we should be able eithet to drive them from the location
altogether, or else offer up our fotreignty as an homage of
our refpe&, and permit the name of our country to be blot
ted out of the lift of nations forever.
I confefs there are many gentlemen of that nation for
whom I entertain the finecreft refped; but they will be so
good as to pardon me, when I observe, that altho' I love
some of them as friends, I cannot like all of them as neigh
bours —Blood, havock and devaflation have for some years
encircled their proximity, arid circumstances equally disast
rous, arid equally improbable they have already achieved.
Do we want any evidences of this truth ?—We can find
them in Switzerland, in Italy, in Egypt, in Hanover, in
France itfelf. We have seen the ancient throne of the
Capets tumbled from its bafei we have, seen the tide of
fecccffion which flowed on imihterrupcedly for ages dam
med up forever, we have seen the sources of the life blood
toyal drained dry.—And by whom ?—By the pert young
lings of the day.
; " An eagle lowering in his pride o f flight,
" Was h, a moujing owl bawled at and lilted."
We have afterward, seen these puny upstarts, when their
hands had been reddened in the daughter pens of Paris
kicked from their feats, and a Corsican foklier embellished
With the majefly of the Bourbons. We have fech one
half of the old world fuhje&ed to his dominion, and the
other half alarmed at his power. And is it for America
alone, fir, with an army scarcely fufficient set the defence
of her garrisons, with a navy scarcely fufficient to puniSh a
Bafhaw, and with ah executive- who foetus Unwilling to
flrain our energies.—ls it, I fay, fir, for America alone, un
der these circumstances, to withstand this gigantic nation,
When fighting in her own ground, fed from her own gran
aries, and fufhlfiled from her own ajfenals ? The time onte
was. when we Were justifiable in redressing our wrongs,
and had an opportunity of doing so; but this opportunity,
and this necessity, I take it, Or, have both passed away.
Yes, thank God, we need no longer apprehend any dan
ger from that monstrous power which has alarmed the
world. We have now a treaty signed by themfclvcs in
which they have voluntarily puffed away all the means of
annoyance which they possessed. ~ But I do not thank the
honourable gentleman who is at the head of our executive.
At the time the negotiations for this treaty were Gommen-
Louisiana.
'The Committee of Ways and Means reported a
bill for carrying into effea the Louisiana conven
tion.—lt provides for the constitution of fbekito
be delivered to the French Agents after LoufanriJWl
have been taken possession of by the United Stales, The
bill was read tiwce,
The Loafana Temporary Government Bill came
from the Senate, was read twice, and committed.
ced, there could be no hopes of its proving fucctfiful, The
First Consul had procured it probably for the purpose of
carrying into effed what is fuppsfed to be his favourite
plan—universal domination, —It gave him the power of in
juring the British, controuling the Spaniard, and perhaps,
of dismembering America; his fleet and army were ready
to fail, and his Colonial Prefect had already arrived. But,
mark ! at this particular frifis, the Kidg of Great-Britain,
who, in this instance, I think the most able negotiator we
had, declares war. The feene is now changed; that which
Frahce refufed to our intcrce"ff:ons She was now compelled
to grant from mere necessity—War took place f believe a
bout the last of March and the treaty was signed soon af
_ terwards. As long as I retain the fame share bf under
flanding which God has. given me, I Shall never believe
that it was owing, in the smallest degree, to the efficacy of
'diplomatic representation. The nynd of that Great Man
is not made of such toft materials ds, to receive an impres
sion from the cofljfion of every gentle hand ; stern, collat
ed and inflexible, he laughs to scorn the toying arts of per
suasion. His foul is a Stupendous rock, which the ruShing
of mighty waters cannot (hake from its place. No, fir, had
it not been swing to this happy coincidence of vircumftatlc
es, the personal felicitations of our ministers would have
been regarded with as life's an ear, as if they had been
whispered across tie ocean.
But whatever may have been the causes which produced
,he treaty I will vote for it; not on account of the advan
tages which we.may promise eurfelves from a sale of the
unlocated land within the Territory. I believe that from
that source, we cannot hope for a reimbursement, as there
is no doubt but that tie sag valuable parts have already heed
granted away by (be Spaniards, and by the French to their own
citizens : nor do / fee an, renriaive provifon in t^ treaty
which would prevent the court off Paris from continuing to ifat
patents up Wtbe date of the exchange of ratifications.|
There may however be other advantages, or th^e may
be disadvantages, which, AirouQd as I am in the gtsna of
uncertainty, for the wane of those means of intelligence,
^hkh perhaps others r.^y resort to, but which has been
withheld from us, 1 am unable to discern ; but which may
be observable to thofc who being more eminently Situated,
"command a larger and, 'clearer profpea. If the claim
which we have prirchafed be invested with any latent em
barrassment; if our pefflffion should be opposed, or if etr
right ofJptopeny should hereafter be concerted; let the
freftdent louk to it ; he and he or) dull become refponli
ble for every dfdp of American blood which may flow
in confluence.df such c'ontcfl, For, if the French have
. hot performed the rtipulations bf the treaty of St. Idlefonfo
refpeding the recognition of tne late king of Etruria, and
iftuch failure on their part has aroused in the Spanish court
riny spirit of opposition to the transfer we have obtained,
we ought to be possessed if the information, that our &f
--cretion might be regulated accordingly. A. we have re
ceived np information refold ing the wxiftencr of foch a Tpi
rit of hostility on the part of the court of Madrid to this

London, sept. 19.
A^ebtlc'mari wlid left AmficrUam, n a Piuffiin
galliot, on Thursday laf^rq.o^s tbe following par
ticulars of the Rate of ilwt counuyL with refpeCt to
the preparations for the invasion.
There are now in the Text! goboais ready for
sea, besides eight fail of the line and a great many
frigates
At Flushing, and tbe other ports of Holland,
there are three hundred boars, and Several frigates.
These boats are jo feel L ng, and ie broad, calcu
lated to contain §6 inert, end cart, two large 'carro
na-les ib their bows.
There are, besides, about as many more about to
be laid down, and getting forward. In Short, all
the carpenters in the country are now employed in
building of craft. It di^s not appear that any of
them are calcuated for horse or artillery. Indeed,
at present; these are but fe w of the former in Hol
land. Four regiments bf dragoons are all that are
attached to the French Itrhv in that country ; but
four thousand Hanoverian hurfe are now on their
march to increase their numbers.
The Dutch force expeaed to be employed in the
expedition is 50,000 mtn. These arc to be distri
buted in the proportion of one Dutch regiment
to two French.
At present there are 18 thousand Frenchmen
in Zealand, making, with the proportionate addi
tion of Dbtch, ^4,000. The French have com
plete possession of the country, and consider the
Dutch government Something in the light of Parifli
Officers or Tax Gatherers. They lately imposed a
contribution of two per cent, on all capital, being
a tax equal to 46 pet cebt, on income. This was
regularly levied and lodged in the cohfular coffers.
It is expeaed these, that the invasion will be at
tempted on a general Scale at once, from all tbe
possible points of depasture, and be dire&ed agaihft
every assailable poirtt of bur coafi from Scotland to
the Lands' End. It was even said that 40,000 h.en
were destined to Berwick and Newcastle.
"tUEkNSEY, SEPT. 16.
"I have just time to inform you, that Sir James
Saumartz is this instant come into the Roads, on
board the Cerberus, from Granville, for which
place he failed, on a secret expedition, last Monday,
for the purpose of bombarding the town, affifled
by tbe Hydra frigate, and feme bomb ketches; and
the fefult is the total deft'u&on of the toten, bar
racks, &c. &c. without the loss of a tingle man.
Sir James himfelf narrowly escaped, a Riot sassing
Close by his fide, and he was Rightly wounded in
one of.his legs by a splinter. They were engaged
all da, yeßerday and part of the day before. They
have also dtßrcyed all tbe Shipping, licenced the
batterftf, and drove all the inhabitants out of the
reach of gun Shot."
The last accounts from China Rated that rebel
lion continued to rage in that country. On the
6th of the 12th moon, a dreadful confli& took plage
between the King's troops amounting to, thirty
thotifand and the rebels. The latter Were repulsed
seven times, and as often returned tb the assault ;
the, st length mounted the ramparts of the bastion
where the king was in person. It was at this pe
riod that the fight became sanguinary beyond de
fcriptinn=-the king, placed in tbe centte of guards,
sword in hand; dealt deftruaion all -round.
About the conclusion of the afternoon, the ram
parts were entirely cleared, and the gates were or
dered to be opened ; the king then attacked arid
followed the rebtlate the tags of the ri®, where
the engagement was renewed with redoubled fury,
and the most dreadful slaughter commenced; for
the gun boats played upon them in front, and the
river being broad and rapid, and night coming ou,
thousands perilhed in the water. Wang Toukie,
son of the usurper, whose brother was king of Co
chin China, and he himfelf governor of Tonking,
fled to the mountains; byt hjs younger brother had
not equal good fortune. Thirty general officers
and colonels, as well as 12,000 inert, were taken
prisoners; the numbers which are drowned are Ra
ted at 3000. The day after the battle, the king
came to the capital, and issued orders to attack the
fugitive rebels in every direaion in the province of
Qilin Hou. To confcquence of this order, which
was immediately complied with, their army was at
tacked on the thm! of the Second moon, in four dif
ferent portions— to the fouth, general Ougtfeen
Q^on, with 40,000 men ; to the east, the queen's
cousin landed 30,000 troops ; to the north, general
™ n k Tali, with 70,000 men ;to the Weft general
Duudon Was appointed, with 40,000. All patfen
gers were guarded with strong detachments. On
the 4th, they forced a defile to the north, which is
tailed Benda mountains ; and the generals pf the
northern division were fortunate enough to effe& a
junction in the plain of Mon San. The loss of
the enemy was inconceivably great, the killed a
mounted to gooo. On the 71b, they again gave
battle ; the marine force was added to the army of
the North; and advanced to the southward gradually
tititil the 15th of the moon, when a cofopkat junc
tion of all the armies was effected to we number of
two hundred thoiffatid men 1 The enemy appeared
to an extent of fix miles at the foot of the moun
tains. Their commander in chief Shien Phoo:
'he general of the marine force which hal been
previoiffly burnt by the king-named Theu Do ; the
general Don Douekou, and their refpeaive at'end
ants, decamped in the night of the 16th or 17th of
the moon, and retired to the mountains of Laos.
The following are the regulations to be ob
served bn board the National Flotilla to be em
ployed against England, as issued by Admiral
Bruix, the Commander in Chief.
1. Every armed vessel forming part of the
National Flotilla, thall have her crew complete,
in conformity to the order of the 18th last Mef
tidor (July 7.)
-*. Tire Commanders and Officers; both by ra
and land, embarked on board these vessels, the
crews and the troops of debarkation, must regu
larly eat arid deep on bbard.
3. The regulations for manoeuvring for ap
proaching the Coaß and landing, must be obfefv
ed with the gr^ateß Rridnefs, Shall be written ful
ly out, and placed in fight of tbe crew in the
most conspicuous part of the vessel.
4. Before the ships fail, a board Shall be fixed
up, the contents bf Which Shall be read aloud
before its being placed in the Ship, on which
Shall be inferibed the name of the individuals to
be employed in succession in Rated works, in giv
fog assistance to such vessels as may require it, of
for the purpose of extinguishing any flafoe which
may break out in the ports or road, A com
missioned officer, or in his room a Midshipman,
bt Maßef, Shall be at all times ready to conduct
this detachment, and of course his name will be
inferibed in the board alluded to.
According to advice from the Black Sea, a
Ruffian fleet will soon make its appearance in the
Strait of Conftantinoph, which will pass the
Dardanelles, and cruize in the Mediterranean.
Thus matters remain, according to the latest in
telligerue received at Bombay; but certain advices
have been transmitted from China, Rating that the
King, with a view to crush this formidable rebel
lion, which has ekifted with more or less confe
quenc^fr r these forty years, and at the fame time
13 give 1 ue energy to his government, lie set out on
ihe igth of the moon, with an army of 300,060, to
Toliqaini to be publicly crowned.

PROCLAMATION.

" E. Bruix, Counfellor of State; and Admiral
to the natiohal flotilla, defined to carry war to
England:.
“ Tbe First Consul, when he Signified to the
your destination; honored me with the title of
your Admiral. He fends me to you to condu&
your exertions in the career of glory, which his
genius has prepared for you. What man, at this
distinguished proof of the confidence of a hero,
would not be railed above himfelf ? Who cotild
doubt of his own powers? Brave feamerl, the
choice of Bonaparte renders me worthy to
march at your head. Your zeal and your brave
ry are pledges to me that we (bail fulfil his ex
pedations. Already you hear the cry of ven
geance!. Our towns and diftrids bring in their
voluntary gifts in multitudes. All Frenchmen
are ready to march to punish a government
which is an ehemy of the peace of tbe world,
and especially an enemy of the glory and welfare
of our country. You are firft called to this great
enterprizb. To you your country firft commits the
care of fatisfyirig her just vengeance. Be cer
tain that you will fulfil your noble destination —
Recoiled that tbe vidory begins in your docks;
and in your marine and military etercifes. Let
those (hips which insolently cruize along our
Chores, at fight of your labours, return and fay
to their Government, “ A fearful day is pre
paring. The winds and sea again favorable to
the Conqueror of Egypt, may in a few hours
bring him to ottr coasts, and with him the innu
merable companions of his glory." To hasten
this result, it is my firft duty to eftabliffi a severe
discipline in the National flotilla. Subordination
will regulate your efforts ; that alone can add to
the adivity of your labours ; fallow, we are on
the field of battle ; to lose a moment will be
criminal cowardice. Redouble, therefore, your
zeal, multiply your service, and the nation which

JAMES SIMPSON, Esq.
r Dear Sir,
, I wrote you from Gibraltar on the 24th inst "
^ en ^ ng that we m ° uld fail the next morning
for Malta. 5
fta ,, 21 tb e Rock, that two Tripolitans .1
were off Cape de Gatt, made me proceed with
expedition, to examine that part of the Span:
iilicoaft. On the 26th, it blowing very freffi. at
BP, M. being nearly up with Cape de Gatt fell *
in with a ffiip carrying only her forefail which
had a brig in company, under the fame fail. It,
being night, and her guns boufed, prevented an
immediate discovery of her being a cruiser. Af
ter hailing for some time, found that ffie was a
vessel of war from Barbary on which informa
tion I catfed her boat to be sent aboard the fri
gate Philadelphia, with her paffports,from which'
I discovered, that ffie was a cruiser belonging to
the Emperor of Morocco, called Meffiboha com
manded by Ibfaham Lubareg, mounting 22
guns, and manned with 100 men. By not mak
mg ourfeives known to the officer who came on
board, he confeifed that the brig in company was
An American, and h^d been with them three or<
four days, was bourid to some port in Spain, had
been boarded by them but not detained;
Tbe low fail tbe brig was under, induced me
to fufpe& that they had captured her notwith-<
standing their having your paffport,which it mult
appear from the sequel was only obtained to pro
tea them agairtft the American ships of war. I
sent my firlt lietit. on board to examine if they
had any American prisoners : on his attempting
to execute my orders, be was prevented by the
captain of the cruiser. This increased my fus- .
picion, and I sent a boat with armed men to en
force my inftfudions ; after they were on board
they found cape Richard Bowen, of tbe Ameri
can brig Celia, owned by Mr. Amafa Thayer, ofr '
Boßon, and fevqral of his crew, who was taken'
on the 17th inst. from Barcelona bound to Mal
aga, within two or three leagues of tbe Spanish
fliofe, and abou? _ mi.^ & Eaßward of
Ma l a ga -The apt/.: r t;k crew :!ey bad
confined below deck which they always did when
speaking a vessel. AR-r making this difioverv
I instantly ordered all th %>„,. ^ on b.^ u : © ^
frigate, for I matte ho hesitation in captu; her
after such proceedings on their part and vhx); ft
of the faith of passports which ought to be sacred.
Owing to the high wind and sea, it took me the 1
greater part of the night to get the prisoners on
board and man the prize, which detention occa
sioned losing fight of the brig.
ibe following morning difeovering many ves
sels in divers directions, the day was spent by the
frigate and prize in chafing to find the captur
ed brig ; about 4 P. M. made her coming round
Cape de Gatt from the Eaßward, Handing close
in shore for Almeria bay,owing to the wind being
very frelh we-wefe going flow in approaching
her ; the great exertions were made by lieuten
ant Coxe in towing and rowing tbe prize. For
tunately tbe wind increased in theevening,&we re
captured her at 12 o'clock at night. The Moori!
confeffed that they came a cruising for the sole
purpose of capturing Amercans to be sent to
~ Tangier. I have received a paper from them
Written in Moorifh,which they fay is their author
ity from the governor of Tangier for so doing;
I Cnclofe this to John Gavino, efq. with a partic
ular request to have it fafely conveyed to you that
you may be informed of tbe tircumftance and ad
accordingly. I believe tbe governor of Tan
gir is much disposed for hostilities with the Uni
ted States ; the Moorish prisoners accuse him as
the sole cause of their prefect fit nation. I fincerelf
hope that the capture may be productive of good
effects to the United States with the Emperor;
who may be assured, that if he unjustly goes td l
war with the United States, he will lose every'
large cruiser be has ; and God grant that it^nay
not in the least prove a disadvantage to ybu. My
officers and felf have made it a marked point td
treat the prisoners not only with tbe lenil, that
is due from bumahity; but with particular at
tention and civility to impress on their minds 1
favorable opinion of the American charades;
That you may receivetbis information as early at
possible, 1 difpath my boat on shore at Malaga;
to request Wm. Kirkpatrick, efq. Conful,to fend
it by express to Gibraltar. I Shall be extremely
anxious to hear from you as also for the arri.
val of commodore Preble, to receive his instruc
tions relative in the captured Ships. Idm bound
to Gibraltar Bay with the prize, but am fearful
we Shall be detained for want of an eaftwardlf
wind. I am, &c, WILL'M BAINBRIDGE;,
