So the House determined to adhere j
and this, warmly-contested bill is final
ly rejected,
NO ^-INTERCOURSE.
Immediately after the decision ol
this question—
Mr Randolph, rose* He #aid that
seldom had a question excited sc
much sensation which was of iutrinsi
cally less importance than that just
row decided—-and perhaps it mightbc
deemed that the proposition which 1»«
was now about to offer was not of- it.
sell deserving of higher consideration.
He said hu would hi. ideai n.
•uc inrly as possible, because, his pre.
*«' t object vas dispatch. We have
(said he) an act subsisting which lot
brevity’s snkc l will cull the non-in*
tercoume lnv. This act has been re*
probated and reviled by every man oi
every poli? ical description in the House
and out of it, from one end of the con.
linent to the other ; an J yet, air. strangt
as it may appear, Congress has beet
in session near five months, and thii
law in relation to which every on<
icemii rn concur (indeed vie with eacl
• rK r) In its reprobation, still remain;
upon our statute books. To answei
what end, I beseech you, sir ? It is v,
sort ot scare-crow set up to frighten
the great belligerents of Europe—ot
i* it a toy, a rattle, a bare play-thing
to amuse th» great children in our po
litical world? On whatsoever roea
auies rh« nation may ultimately re
so've, he it p.'acv, be it war, b« it (il
there be such a ibiag) an intermediate
suite betw en these two, there is nc
diff. ren-x o> nrurioa as to the deleieri
t us operation of this unfortunate law; 1
ought perhaps to call it fortunate ; for,
although it was introduced into the
- hous,- without a single friendjaliho* na
man * as found to lift up his voice in i.j
defence, it actually passed bv a major
* y of two to one, and is found nearly
'•» dilfiriih to repeal as the old sedition
l«w of thr former majority, even after
all us abetmrs have become convinced
or i»s ir.ifcchievoUA tendency. I hope,

be immediately repealed,”
The House agreed to consider the
resolution. Y< as 69, Nays 53.
Mr Montgomery said !« had just
now voted lor nd^erence to the (lisa..
grtement of the House to the Senate’s
.mtcod neats, because he did conceive
that a “repea! of the noa-intercourse
without something being substituted
va* positive unequivocal submission
to the edicts of Fiance and Great Bri
ain. lie had been gratified at the
result of that vote, as it had still kept
open the question for a repeal of th.*
non-intercourse. He was one of those
opposed to a repeal of the non inter,
course without a substitute. He slid
he thought Congress could not sepa
rate at the present session without re
pealing the non-intercour3e and doing
something to maintain, support and
defend the rights of our country. At
a former session the House had re
solved that they could not submit to
the British or French decrees without
: a surrender of the rights, honor .and
I independence of the nation. Nothing
had occurred to change the relative
situation of the United States, as to
thofce decrees. Holding these opini.
ons, Mr M. said he consideied it iris
duty to move the following amend
ment, to which he said he had no hc
s'fciticn in saying as his belief that no
gentlematf who regarded the rights
or honor of his country could object;
M And that provision ought be made
by law to maintain and defend the
rights, honor and independence of the
United States agsinpt the edicts ol
France and Great Britain.”
On motion of Mr Smilie,- the House
now adjourned, 65 to 5J.

It will be seen by the speech, the no
tice which is taken of American affairs.
1 he debate in both Houses was very ani
mated, and oftoo great length for this day’s
paper—was principally co.nhocd totho war
in Europe —Little was said upon American
affairs, but as our readers may wish to
kilow bven that little, We will insert it-~
Mr Whitbread an opposition member al
luding to wi-.at had fallen from Mr Can
ning, remarked:
“ The next respected America; aBd
here he could not help expressing his sur
prise, that the right hon. gentleman who
had last spoken, had abstained fro u ex
plaining why in the last session he had
withheld from the house a document, which
went to the complete justification of our
lata ministry in that country*. He was glad
to hear, by a passage in his majesty’s
v»v»i iui4iis wiui /vnunca
were in a train of accommodation j bu the
right hon. gentleman opposite is deeply
responsible for the tardiness with winch
tliAt arrangement had been entered into.”
A ministerial mem wr remarked ;
“ To the affairs of America it might be
indecorous for him in their present situa
tion to advert, nor should he alter the ob
servations ot his majesty** speech, cuter
into any inquiry as to the conduct of the
ministers. If the honour of the nation
were nt slake, however we might regret
tiie revival cf Hostilities, or the injury of
our trade, it could wot t>e a matter of Hes
itation. Hut of the effects, a war witn A
meric i might piodu e upon the commerce
of this country, we might be able u> form
some judgement from former experience.
Oaring the embargo, the amount of the ex
ports to, and imports from, the U. States,
were unquestionably decreased, but this
loss was amply counterbalanced by the di
rect trade carried on by our merchants to
Spam. England desired nei.her peace nor
war, but sho would suffer no indignity j and
make no unbecoming concessions. VVuu

directed. The accounts of the exports of

Mr Percival (the Chancellor of the Ex
chequer} remarked:
“With regard to America, there cer
tainly a d no. appear to ex.at greater dif
ficulties in reconciling the difference wuich
had suosiued between them—out even up
on this point tue obstacle to an union did
rot appear to be insuperable. One ot the
great leading points of difference respect
ing America arose upon uieorders of coun.
cil, wn.ca the tw* nouie lords had rcl
piesentec as most impolitic, and as being
oig with rum to the commerce of this coun

My Lords and Gentlemen,

Altho* *he wav was undertaken by that mon
arch without encourage Bent on the part of
his mijrsiy, every eff >rt was made for the
assistance of Austria which his majesty
deem'-cl consistent with the due support of
his all'es, and with the welfare and inter
est of his own dnmmions.
“ An attack upon the naval armsments
and establishments in the Scheldt afforded
at once the prospect of destroying a grow,
