> House of Representative*, March 16,1807.
House in committee of the whole bfitf iM I2MO
RfAL to congress, relative to the conduct of Ge
. nerai. • Wilkikson ? Dr, Cooley hi thecbair,
/ [After some conversation, relative to reconknit
t:ng the memorialthe boose took Bp the question
“ shall this memorial be forwarded to cong'rm f*
On which commenced an animated debate,. which
continued two days, wben;it was rejected,] „
DEBATE;.. >
; Mr- H*ghea* The motion proposed by the gen.
tlcinoii from Acadia, is certainly one 'that shall
have my moat heartydisappr>bau*n. i aid asto
nished sir, that the gentleman flort ^cadia, or in
deed any other in this boose, could have tlie bold
ness to rise and support a motion for the recom
mitment of the memorial nos* under the coushle
ration of this house ; when I reflect Sir, that the
same memorial has been huxtcred about from one
committee to another, one of which committee#
Uie gentleman himself was a member for at least
forty days; that Committee was discharged and
another appointed in its stead, and now, upwards
-of twenty days have elapsed, the memorial is
brought torwardtbr consideration, end the gentle
man has the good conscience to propose the post
ponement of its consideration.' I am iu hopes tbe
proposition will have ne effect, and meet-the oppo
sition it justly merits. And now I am up, If l am
in order, I will make some some general remarks
On the extraordinary occurrences which produced
the memorial. They will be such I believe as no*
person iu this house wiH find easy to refute. '
V, Instead of hearing the memorial submitted by
your committee, termed a libel, I expected tphave
heard it applauded for the temperance aftd'mUdpess
of its language} instead of hearing it asserted that
it contained charges unfounded and malicious* I
was myself prepared to uccuse the committee of
having overlooked nmnV important causes uf com
plaint, and I was even tempted to offer proofs of
some, to be added byway of amendment to the
report. I confess, Mr. Chairman, -that I look a
roond me with astonishment—that I doubt the e
vidence of my senses, whey I bear conduct, such
»a that of which,we complain, p iliiated or excus
ed ; and I would rather bear tbe idea that atetnf
porary insanity had assailed me, than he forced to"
the; mortifying certainty, that these palliations,
these excuses, the mean,-humbling, half •justifica
tions of arbitrary power, bavebeetrasserted by Atne
»ricans, in a tree deliberative assembly ;—free Js
tctnblit ! pardon me, Mr. Chairman, the uiitruard
ed expression ; it is the bitterest irony in our. situ
ation. Are you safe, sir, in your chair f' Aiw'ei
ther of o»tn our seats free trom the tear of'actual
violation ? The sword of power-is waved over,bur
beads—the bayonets of military despotism are a#
your door, and the adoption of that ipenipjial may
be the signal for your immediate seizure; banish
ment or death ! And pray sir, to what quarter will
you look for protection* To the executive ojf the
territory ? He has been under tbe necessity of'de
legating certain powers to oiir. dictator!—To your
constituents i Vour tame submission to these out
mgcs—your wretched time-serving delay—tbe
slant of character and energy we hare for tyro long
month? displayed—have destroyed aH confidence in
Wb. or sympathy fpr ow sufferings, Biit there is
«p danger; the storm has Wowirover # the clouds
are dispersed, and we are nyoy the foU lun
