Mr. Parker moved that when Congress adjourn
they shall be adjourned -to meet and hold their next
feflion at the city of Philadelphia.—-Some debate
about order arose thereon—but the Resolution was
hot taken up for discussion.
The House then went into a Committee of the
whole, on the Bill for repealing certain duties on
spirituous liquors and laying other duties in lieu
thereof ; after making considerable progress, the
committee rose.
Mr. Gerry read a Resolution, which was order
ed to lie on the table, for the purpose of determin
ing on a permanent residence for Congress, some
where on the banks of the river Delaware, not
more than' miles from Philadelphia, nor
miles from the Falls of Trenton.
IN SENATE, I
TUESDAY, JUNE 8.
ON motion, the Senate agreed to postpone the
bill for establishing the feat of government of
the United States,&the report of Committee there
on—and to take up the Resolution of the House
passed the 31st of May./
This Resolution was nonconcurred; —l3 to it.
The opinion of the Senate was taken " Whe
ther it is expedient at this time to determine the
permanent feat of government of the United
States," and the question was determined in the
negative.
On motion to fill up the blank in the bill for
fixing the permanent residence with the words
—'' the easterly banks of the Potowmack"it pass
ed in the negative.
Baltimore and Wilmington were then proposed
and were also negatived._

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
CONGRESS.
After some debate on this motion, a motion was
made to adjourn, and carried.
Those in favor of determining on the temporary
residence, or an adjournment to Philadelphia, ur
ged its greater centrality than Newyork ; the in
justice done to the southern States in holding the
sessions in so eccentric a situation—the uneasiness
of the people on this account —the present temper
of the House—the tendency of the question to irri
tate and inflame—the interruption of the publick
business, and the influence the fubjeft a ight be sup
posed to have in determining great national ques
tions—that the determination of a very great ma
jority of the House had been overruled in ah un
precedented and extraordinary manner by the Se
nate, the House ought in justice to themselves, and
to their constituents, who were greatly interested
in the issue of the question, to insist on their former
vote, &c. From these considerations the advocates
for Mr. Parker's motion urged an ultimate decision
on the qpeftion.
In reply it was observed, that the quefton is of
a mere local nature, which ought not to be brought
forward at the present moment, to interrupt the
great and important national business before the
House—that the people were anxiously waiting
for a completion of this business—that they would
view with concern and disgust the men u hom they
had appointed to tranfad affairs of the greatest mo
ment, agitated, irritated, and wafting time in dis
cussing a question of, confeffedly, a local nature—
that though the resolution had been once carried by
a large majority in the House, it was negatived in
the Senate, and there was no profped of a differ
ent decision—that if Philadelphia was agreed up
on as the place to which Congress should adjourn,
it must appear from a most cursory view of the state
of representation, that it would be extremely diffi
cult ever to effeft a removal to a more central si
tuation, and no one pretended that it was the molt
eligible place for a permanent refidence.—lt was
further said, that in order to remove all cause of
further uneatinefs on this fubjed, it was become
necefiary to determine the permanent feat of go
vernment. On this last idea, many observations
were made; and the eligibility of the measure ur
ged with great zeal.— The motion to take up Mr.
Parker's resolution being carried—
Mr. Sedgwick, after a number of observations,
moved that the resolution now before the House
should be referred to a committee of the whole ;
and that that committee be inftruded' to take into
consideration the motion of Mr. Gerry, laid on the
table yesterday, for fixing the permanent feat of
government on the banks of the Delaware.
Mr. Carroll observed, that when the fubje& was
originally bro't before the House, it was moved
to take up the permanent residence—that motion
was then rejeded—why then should we waste time
on a fubjed, which has already been determined 3
If gentlemen are sincere who profefs to be concern
ed about the other public business, they certainly
will not go into a committee of the whole as now
proposed.
Mr. Ames rose and declared, that he as well as
those with whom he a&ed were sincere in their pro
feffions when they wished to bring forward the per
manent residence—he thought it of the utmost im
portance that the fubjeft should receive a final de
termination.- This motion, as before stated, was
negatived. _
FRIDAY, JUNE 11.
Mr. Lawrance moved that the House should go
into a committee on the bill providing ways and
means for the support of the public credit. On
this motion the Ayes and Noes were called --Ayea ~
26—Noes 31. On motion of Mr. Hartley, the
House took up the resolution for holding the next
session of Congress at Philadelphia.
THURSDAY, JUNE 10.
Mr. Vining moved that the House should take
up for consideration the motion made yesterday
by Mr. Parker, to remove Congress from New
york to Philadelphia. The Ayes and Noes were
taken—Ayes 32 —Noes 29.
The motion being before the House for a decision
—a motion was made that the fame should be
committed to a committee of the whole, and that
the propofiticn moved yesterday by Mr. Gerry,
should at the fame time be referred to the com
mittee, with inftrudions that they examine into
the question relative to a place for fixing the per
manent feat of government.
The question being put, it was negatived —Aye^
28 —Noes 33.
Mr. Bloodworth then moved, that Philadelphia
should be struck out of the refolution,andßaltimorc
inserted.
