MONDAY, December 10.
Dtiufe »n tfn: Hi!for tOaUiJhtng a Cmtt for the rdj tdua*
tn >t ofprint mtifts in tettatn tajii.
Mr. A. Ori/ketld laid there wa fome difficulty oc
cur : el to his mind in the v*-ry outlet of the hi!!.
I cunltitution ol the United States declare* that all
their judges lhall hold tf.eir offices during good beha
viour. Yet the fit ft fetiion of the bill declares that
the judge of this court (hall hold hil office during the
exigence of the war between the Uiiited States anti
ny **i tiie predatory power* of the Hate* of I'iirhuiv,
atm the 1/th fedlioti goes llili further, in abririgii g rtie
duration oi the office, by giving power to the Preli
dent to abuiiffi the Court when he inay think prop-r.
”y tile contlitut:on the President is empowered to no
minate, and by and with tile advice of the Senate to
appoint judges; but no where by time infiruniunt, it
he aut.ioriled to uboliffi a court or annihilate too of
Ccu of.» judge of the aduiiralty, n» :!.!» fcdliou uttempi
ed to uuthcrifc h.m to do. He allied the gentleman
vho reported the bill to Jaflifydui arrangement of a
judge of admiralty holding his office either during »
war,or at the Jil'cretion of tha Prifident. In order
to try the pritiripie he moved to f'-.ihe cut the firli
fedtion of the bill.
Mi. AoJ.irv ci:d not know thar he bad it in his now
er to faritfy the I .routes of the gentleman from CV:>
nedheut, but if he had, hr would endeavour to remove
them. He confidered this cafe as one /!•„• ynttit, de
pendant upon its own peculiar circumftaiicis ;and he
fficutd not bring into view the queliion extremely
analogous, which had been io much cor.trvvcrti d a
few /ears back, but had been then fet at ref), namely,
that judges, appointed under the law of the United
State* when once the courts were aboliflied, and their
jurifdtfiiun taken from them, ffirli not Hill continue
judges of the hind, and receive a falary for being idle.
or worn* man icte.
l'he cafe ofh.fl feflion, In forming a temporary go
vernment fcr the Lnutfiana territory, *u» precifclv on
the principle of the bill, and the gentleman will find
upon infpe&ing the law that the judges in that terri
tory only hold their offices for four years. The ttrii
ure in that cafe is a term of year', and is fnrely f.s
f’rong a calc as the one to he provided for by the bid,
both courts beio ■> creAed, or to he credit J, out of the
original limits of the United States at the time ,,T a
dopting the conflitution ; and he believed J.e confli
tution when it declared that the judges of the fu
prenie court and inferior courts fhoulo hold their of
fices during good behavior, confined itfelf to the then
territory wf the union, and notto judges out of the U
nited States. There it another fe&cn of the condi
tion which gives to Uongrefs the power to make all
laws nc:*ff ry for carrying into execution the
other power* granted by that infrrnment, aid
under this power it becomes Congrefs to
ma^e prov.Coiiary regulations for temporary
contingencies, and we are authorifed to •flahlidi a
temporary judiciary out rf the United States, became
the exigency occasioned by the exercife of the coitfli
rutional power of declaring war imperioully rails for
it. Without luch a proviiton as that contemplated
in the bill, our gallant tars would be fighting to link
rflcCf, if there wa« no judicial authority for the con
demnation of Tripolitan vcfTels after capture, ’/fee
terms of the conflitution do not apply to ..dies » f rh s
Vhiii. This queflion was tdked ov r if the nd.-fl.
committee, and the committee were tinaninious, «b-t
w" were as much at liberty to tix the duration ol ths
judge’s office in this cafe, us we were to lie the teriu
of four years as the period of the efh.bl'.ihnieut of tbs
courts in l.ouifiana.
Mr. Jt. GripivJJ fsid the cafe did not compare.
The judiciary power veiled in the judges of tL* ter
ritory of Louisiana, was not that judiciary ;sfev*er of
the United States mentioned in the con&itutiun, and
therefore the variation «>f the tenure might be jniti
ned; but in the prefent cafe they v/ere about to refl
a judge with the proper cor.ftitutiftnal power of an
United States judge, exert iling admiralty jurif'ditflion,
which is a regular judiciary power of the United
State*; and although it was to he exercifed out of ihe
territory of the United States, it w;.s nev.-i thele.O the
power alluded to in ihe conflitution, anil a.i inferior
court to he cflabiiOic J by Congrefs, the judge of \\ hi Ji
is to hold Ins o'.’i.v during gi.od behaviour : ai.d no
gentleman on that floor could deny chat, this iud,.e
was bound in liis decifiousby the l.;ws of the United
Stafes binding on the diftriiS, and :1 er judges of the
Union. He did not lee that the point he h ,d tn„(ie
out on the nrefent queflion wasthe fame as that allud
ed to in the repeal of the late judiciary live; wh.it
v/as men contended lor wuftthe repeal of the law, ami
not whether Congrcfa had the power of removing
the judges. T'lie prefer.t was not rcpsnling :• Ir.w ir«
order to abrogate the office, but it was c-eating a new
court and providing for the appoint rent of a judge
thereto, who by the confutation is to hold his office,
in that court during good behaviour. Yet this Lid
declares that the office (hall he limited to the v ar
with the Barhary p .wcis.—He did not think that the
meafure was warranted hy the conilitution.
i-fr. J. R :nMf>L faid that tl.ii Wa* a.* .»M q;;fft
o'i in i new £h ipe, it wa-; not in the lame words, but
it turned upon the fame pivot. If Oingref* poffeffcd
the power when a court became ufelHs to sbolith it,
certainly they had the power when creating a court
for a particular purpofe to dec'yre that, when th.,t
purpofe was aufweri d, the court Ihould he difeominu
f’l. \> here was the diTerence between creating a
jadici d court now ttnd .'t the end of the Tripolitan
war for any d<fu;i*.. period of annulling it, and
fpei ifying in the law creating the court thr.t it ihould
ceafe itri he dilenntmtied at the end of the Tripolitan
war, or at any definite time hereafter ? So far as r •
lated to the judges there wa» more of f, ecioofnefs io
the claim of him wiio entered into an office the term
< f whole exiflence was not defined in th* law creating
it, than of hi u vvlio knew wlien he accepted an ap
p iintnicnttlr.it ou a certain contingency or at a cei
tain time his office was to ceafe and he difrontitiued.
In le/ard to the ninth loci ion, without lev ng it
iu the very objectionable point of T^ht in which it
wa« viewed by the gentleman from Connecticut, (,.»
thought the bill would be as well without it. \Vh»r
*vfr might be the relative-lituMion which he niigi t
hold on that floor, he would always he averfe to an
unneceffary accumulation of patronage and porter iu
the h inds of the executive The (alary bill the next
fellion of Congrrfa.fuppollng peace in the mean time
to be made with T ripoli, w?.i tio object.
Mr, r.'ffot ritn not view the tut m thr
fame point of light as the gentleman who had
preceded him. He did not conlidirthi ft,ft.
fetfinn as limiting the dui at ion of the r.inrf.
but merely authoiiling the Pictidcnt by aid
with the advice of the fc nate to appoint a judge
of admiralty in the territory ot fome4ortign na
tion at war with t’ie Mine naticii with whit h
we are now at war. Hut the ail) lef.ir.rt gave
the Prefidcnt the pow r of abrogating tie*
court after it j]io«itd be eibmbfbed. He weiiKl
never confent to give the Pri-fident the power
to abrogate any jndiria y tribunal whatever.
