Congress of the United States.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
City of Washington, TUESDAY, NOV. 25.
MR. Griswold, as Chairman of the Committee, appointed to draft an answer to the President's Speech, reported the same, which was ordered to be printed.
On motion of Mr. Otis, a letter from the Secretary of the Treasury, announcing his determination to resign his Secretaryship, and inviting an investigation into his official conduct, was committed to a Committee of seven.
The House being in committee of the whole, Gen. Lee moved the appointment of a committee to report suitable measures for carrying into effect the resolutions passed the last session, commemorative of the political services of Gen. Washington. Ordered to lie on the table.
WEDNESDAY, NOV. 26.
The answer to the President's Speech was debated, and after some amendment, accepted. It is to be presented To-Morrow.
IN SENATE.
To the PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES.
SIR, IMPRESSED with the important truth, that the hearts of Rulers and People are in the hand of the Almighty, the Senate of the United States most cordially join in your invocations for appropriate blessings upon the Governors and People of this union.
We meet you, Sir, and the other branches of the National Legislature, in the city which is honored by the name of our late hero and sage, the illustrious WASHINGTON, with sensations and emotions, which exceed our power of description.
WHILE we congratulate ourselves on the convention of the Legislature at the permanent seat of government, and ardently hope that permanence and stability may be communicated as well to the government itself as to its feet; our minds are irresistibly led to deplore the death of him who bore so honorable and efficient a part in the establishment of both. Great indeed would have been our gratification, if his sum of earthly happiness had been completed, by seeing the government thus peaceably convened at this place: But we derive consolation from a belief that the moment in which we were destined to experience the loss we deplore, was fixed by that Being whose counsels cannot err; and from a hope, that since in this seat of government which bears his name, his earthly remains will be deposited, the Members of Congress, and all who inhabit the city, with these memorials before them, will retain his virtues in lively recollection, and make his patriotism, morals and piety, models for imitation. And permit us to add, Sir, that it is not among the least of our consolations, that you, who have been his companion and friend, from the dawning of our national existence, and trained in the same school of exertion to effect our independence, are still preserved, by a gracious Providence, in health and activity, to exercise the functions of Chief Magistrate.
THE question whether the local powers over the district of Columbia, vested by the constitution in the Congress of the United States, shall be immediately exercised, is of great importance, and in deliberating upon it we shall naturally be led to weigh the attending circumstances and every probable consequence of the measures which may be prepared.
THE several subjects for Legislative consideration, contained in your speech to both houses of Congress, shall receive from the Senate all the attention which they can give, when contemplating those objects both in respect to their national importance, and the additional weight that is given them by your recommendation.
WE deprecate with you, Sir, all spirit of innovation from whatever quarter it may arise, which may impair the sacred bond that cements the different parts of this Empire; and we trust, that under the protection of Divine Providence, the wisdom and virtue of the citizens of the United States will deliver our national compact unimpaired to a grateful posterity.
FROM past experience, it is impossible for the Senate of the United States to doubt of your zealous co-operation with the Legislature in every effort to promote the general happiness and tranquility of the union.
ACCEPT, Sir, our warmest wishes for your health and happiness.
THE PRESIDENT'S REPLY.
Mr. President, and Gentlemen of the Senate.
FOR this excellent address, so respectful to the memory of my illustrious predecessor, which I receive from the Senate of the United States at this time, and in this place, with peculiar satisfaction, I pray you to accept my unfeigned acknowledgements. With you I ardently hope that permanence and stability will be communicated as well to the government itself as to its beautiful and commodious seat. With you I deplore the death of that hero and sage, who bore so honourable and efficient a part in the establishment of both. Great indeed would have been my gratification, if his scene of earthly happiness had been completed by seeing the government thus peaceably convened at this place, himself at its head. But while we submit to the decisions of Heaven, whose councils are inscrutable to us, we cannot but hope that the members of Congress, the officers of government, and all who inhabit the city or the country will retain his virtues in lively recollection, and make his patriotism, morals and piety models for imitation.
I thank you gentlemen for your assurance that the several subjects for Legislative consideration recommended in my communication to both Houses shall receive from the Senate a deliberate and candid attention.
With you, gentlemen, I sincerely deprecate all spirit of innovation, which may weaken the sacred bond that connects the different parts of this National Government and with you I trust, that under the protection of Divine Providence, the wisdom and virtue of our citizens, will deliver
our national compact unimpaired, to a free, prosperous, happy and grateful posterity. To this end it is my fervent prayer, that in this city, the fountains of wisdom may be always open, and the streams of eloquence for ever flow. Here may the youth of this extensive country for ever look up without disappointment, not only to the monuments and memorials of the dead, but to the examples of the living, in the members of Congress and officers of Government for finished models of all those virtues, graces, talents and accomplishments, which constitute the dignity of human nature, and lay the only foundation for the prosperity or duration of empires.
John Adams.
City of Washington, Nov. 26, 1800.
Answer of the House of Representatives to the President's Speech. To the PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES.
SIR, THE House of Representatives have received, with great respect, the communication which you have been pleased to make to the two houses of Congress, at the commencement of the present session.
The final establishment of the seat of national government, which has now taken place, within the district of Columbia, is an event of no small importance in the political transactions of our country; and we cordially unite our wishes with yours, that this territory may be the residence of happiness and virtue.
Nor can we, on this occasion, omit to express a hope, that the spirit which animated the great founder of this city, may descend to future generations, and that the wisdom, magnanimity and steadiness, which marked the events of his public life, may be imitated in all succeeding ages.
A consideration of those powers, which have been vested in Congress over the district of Columbia, will not escape our attention, nor shall we forget, that in exercising these powers, a regard must be had to those events, which will necessarily attend the capital of America.
The cheerfulness and regularity, with which the officers and soldiers of the temporary army, have returned to the condition of private citizens, is a testimony, clear and conclusive, of the purity of those motives, which induced them to engage in the public service, and will remain a proof on all future occasions that an army of soldiers, drawn from the citizens of our country, deserves our confidence and respect.
No subject can be more important, than that of the Judiciary, which you have again recommended to our consideration, and it shall receive our early and deliberate attention.
The Constitution of the United States having confided the management of our foreign negotiations to the control of the executive power, we cheerfully submit to its decisions on this important subject. And in respect to the negotiations now pending with France we sincerely hope that the final result may prove as fortunate for our country as the most ardent mind can wish.
So long as a predatory war is carried on against our commerce, we should sacrifice the interests, and disappoint the expectations of our constituents should we, for a moment, relax that system of Maritime defence, which has resulted in such beneficial effects. At this period it is confidently believed, that few persons can be found within the United States, who do not admit that a navy, well organized, must constitute the natural and efficient defence of this country against all foreign hostility.
The progress which has been made in the manufacture of arms, leaves no doubt that the public patronage, has already placed this country beyond all necessary dependence on foreign markets, for an article so indispensable for defence: and gives us assurances, that under the encouragement which government will continue to extend to this important object, we shall soon rival foreign countries not only in the number but in the quality of arms, completed from our own manufactures.
Few events could have been more pleasing to our constituents, than that great and rapid increase of revenue, which has arisen from permanent taxes. Whilst this event explains the great and increasing resource of our country, it carries along with it a proof which cannot be resisted, that those measures of maritime defence, which were calculated to meet our enemy upon the ocean, and which have produced such extensive protection to our commerce, were founded in wisdom and policy. The mind must in our opinion, be insensible to the plainest truths, which cannot discern the elevated ground on which this policy has placed our country. That national spirit, which alone could vindicate our common rights, has been roused, and those latent energies, which had not been fully known, were unfolded and brought into view, and our fellow citizens were prepared to meet every event, which national honour or national security could render necessary. Nor have its effects been much less important in other respects. Whilst many of the nations of the earth, have been impoverished and depopulated, by internal commotions, and national confusions, our internal peace has not been materially impaired: our commerce has extended, under the protection of our instant navy, to every part of the Globe: wealth has flowed without intermission into our Seaports, and the labours of the Husbandman, have been rewarded by a ready market for the productions of the soil.
Be assured, Sir, that the various and important subjects, recommended to our consideration, shall receive our early and deliberate attention, and confident of your co-operation, in every measure which may be calculated to promote the general interest, we shall endeavour on our part, to testify by our industry and dispatch, the zeal and sincerity with which we regard the public good.
THE PRESIDENT'S REPLY.
MR. SPEAKER, And Gentlemen of the House of Representatives.
COMPELLED, by the habits of a long life, as well as by all the principles of society and government which I could ever understand and believe, to consider the great Body of the people, as the source of all legitimate authority, no less than of all efficient power; it is impossible for me to receive this Address, from the immediate Representatives of the American People, at this time, and in this place, without emotions which it would be improper to express, if any language could convey them.
May the spirit, which animated the great founder of this city, descend to future generations, and may the wisdom, magnanimity, and steadiness, which marked the events of his public life, be imitated in all succeeding ages.
I thank you, Gentlemen, for your assurance, that the judiciary system shall receive your deliberate attention.
With you, Gentlemen, I sincerely hope that the final result of the negotiations now pending with France, may prove as fortunate for our country, as they have been commenced with sincerity, and prosecuted with deliberation and caution.
With you I cordially agree, that so long as a predatory war is carried on against our commerce, we shall sacrifice the interest, and disappoint the expectations of our constituents, should we for a moment, relax that SYSTEM OF MARITIME DEFENCE, which has resulted in such beneficial effects. With you, I confidently believe, that few persons, can be found within the United States, who do not admit, that a NAVY, well organized, must constitute the natural and efficient defence of this country against all foreign hostility.
Those who recollect the distress and danger to this country, in former periods, from the want of arms, must exult in the assurance, from their Representatives, that we shall soon rival foreign countries, not only in the number, but in the quality of arms, completed from our own manufactures.
With you, Gentlemen, I fully agree, that the great increase of Revenue, is a proof that the measures of Maritime Defence, were founded in wisdom. This policy has raised us, in the esteem of foreign nations. That national spirit, and those latent energies, which had not been, and are not yet fully known to any, were not entirely forgotten by those who had lived long enough to see, in former times their operation, and some of their effects. Our Fellow-Citizens were undoubtedly prepared to meet every event, which national honor, or national security could render necessary. These, it is to be hoped, are secured at the cheapest and easiest rate. If not, they will be secured at more expence.
I thank you, Gentlemen, for your assurance that the various subjects, recommended to your consideration, shall receive your deliberate attention. No further evidence is wanting to convince me of the zeal and sincerity with which the House of Representatives regard the public good.
I pray you, Gentlemen, to accept of my best wishes for your health and happiness. John Adams. Washington, Nov. 27, 1800.
FOREIGN ARTICLES.
By arrivals at New-York and Boston, from Liverpool—London dates to Oct. 18—Ten days later.
PARIS, OCT. 6. CITIZEN Joseph Bonaparte has entertained in a very splendid manner, the American Envoys, at Morfontaine, in celebration of the return of good understanding between the two states. All the Consuls, Ministers, Members of the Corps Diplomatique, the Counsellors of State, the Presidents of all the branches, were present, and several persons formerly in the service of the U. S. of whom Gen. La Fayette was one.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs presented to the Chief Consul, the Convention signed the 1st Oct. between the French and American Envoys—which was announced by a discharge of cannon. The dinner, of 180 covers, was served up in three halls, named Hall of Union, Washington and Franklin. The former was splendidly decorated with emblems of the prominent events of the American Revolution.
After dinner, the First Consul gave— "To the manes of the French and Americans who died on the field of battle for the Independence of the New World."
Consul Cambacérès gave, "To the success of WASHINGTON."
Consul Le Brun gave, "To the union of America with the powers of the North to enforce respect to the liberties of the seas."
After dinner there were fire-works, a concert, and a theatrical representation.
OS 3. The Minister of War, to the Maritime Prefects in Bordeaux.
"I make haste to inform you, citizen, that a convention of Amity and Commerce between the French Republic and the United States of America has been just signed by the Ministers Plenipotentiaries of France and the American Commissioners. I pray you to communicate this news immediately to the military officers of the Administration, as well as to the commerce of your city."
(Signed) FORSAIT."
AMERICAN ENVOYS.
OCT. 11. Yesterday the American Ministers took leave of the Chief Consul. Mr. Ellsworth, in behalf of his colleagues, said, "He hoped the Convention signed on the 1st, would prove the basis of a lasting friendship between France and America." The Chief Consul replied, "That the differences between the two nations being adjusted, there should no longer remain any trace of them; that the liberal principles with regard to navigation, considered in Convention, ought to be the basis of a growing intimacy, and that in the present circumstances it was more than ever the interest of the two nations closely to adhere to them."
HAVRE, OCT. 8. "The American Envoys, whose object is to perfect the work of reconciliation desired by all the friends of peace, are now in our city. All the civil and military authorities are eager to render their homage to the Representatives of an allied nation, acknowledged since the year 1778 as the most sincere friends of the French nation. A guard of honour, of 50 men, has been sent them; for which they have returned thanks according to custom. Contrary winds have retarded their departure, in the Portsmouth frigate. The calm will keep them here for eight days."
PARIS, OCT. 7. Louis Bonaparte has just set out for Berlin. 6000 of the Malta garrison have arrived at Marseilles.
Pacific Congress at Luneville.

LONDON, October 12.
The London Gazette of last evening contained official dispatches from Gen. Pigot, of the surrender of the important reeling-place, of Malta, with its numerous garrison, after a siege of two years. By these we learn, that there were two 64 gun ships, besides other vessels in the harbour. As also of the capture of La Diane, of 42 guns, which had endeavored to escape from Malta.
OCT. 18.
Mr. Linton our ambassador to the United States, is, it is said, on his return. Mr. Adams, the President, has it is stated, for upwards of a twelve month made complaints of British cruizers capturing American ships and property at the very mouths of their harbors. Mr. Linton, we are informed, transmitted these remonstrances to this government, but he did not find that they were sufficiently attended to, and his situation at Philadelphia became i'kome and very unpleasant.

A letter has been received by the Secretary of State of the United States from Judge Washington, dated Augusta, Nov. 13, in which he says, "That if the re-election of Mr. Adams depends on South Carolina, there can no longer be any doubt of the choice—that such elections will be chosen as to ensure the election of Adams and Pinckney." This extract came to us through a very respectable source.
SALEM, Dec. 12.
From ALGIERS & GIBRALTER.
On Tuesday last arrived here the ship Brutus, William Brown, commander, 40 days from Algiers, and 32 from Gibraltar. By the information of Capt. Brown, it appears that the American Consul and flag are treated with more respect by the Dey of Algiers, than any European nation whatever. As a proof of his regard, he compelled the United States frigate George Washington, Captain Bainbridge, to take on board a cargo of black slaves, lions, tigers, leopards, ostriches, &c. and with the Algerine standard at his main-top-gallant-mast head, instead of the American pendant, proceed with them to Constantinople, as a present from the Dey to the Grand Seignor, the Algerine General of Marine, with his suite, accompanying them. This was considered by the Algerines as a distinguishing honour. The Dey, in his usual accommodating style, threatened war to the United States, if Capt. Bainbridge did not comply. The frigate failed for Constantinople on the 19th of October. The Brutus escaped a similar honour, only through the influence of Consul O'Brien; but several Danish vessels were pressed into the Dey's service, to go to the island of Rhodes, without compensation. A misunderstanding had existed between the Dey and the English, but it appeared to be adjusted.
Capt. Brown brought dispatches from our Consul for the Secretary of State. The Consul desires to have a successor appointed. While at Algiers, Capt. Brown procured the following information:
Sketch of Algerine Spoilations for the last two years.
27 Sail of Neapolitans, Sicilians and Maltese, having British passports from Lord Keith—vessels and cargoes condemned—crews, 215, condemned to slavery, claimed by the English, and not given up.
17 Sail of Greeks—vessels, cargoes and crews condemned—the Greeks employed as slaves, and after a service of 15 months given up to the Grand Seignor.
13 Sail of Imperialis, valued at one million of dollars—vessels and cargoes condemned—crews given up to the Grand Seignor.
At Tunis, they have taken 11 Danish vessels, valued at six hundred thousand dollars.
At Tripoli they have captured 24 sail of Swedes.
A Danish frigate by mistake chased an Algerine Corsair altho' near Tunis—for which the Danish Government will have to pay the Dey eighty thousand and to his Ministers twenty thousand dollars!
Three hundred and sixty eight Frenchmen were made slaves in July last at Algiers, but were released at the conclusion of the Peace with France.
The Spanish Consul was 35 days in chains on account of the French taking the brig Bahia. Spain returned the brig and crew to Algiers, accompanied with presents to the amount of 60,000 dollars—which released the poor Consul. [The fact with respect to the capture of the Bahia was, that the French and Spanish fleets were combined when the French took her, and she was sent into a Spanish port.]
Two days after leaving Algiers, Captain
Brown fell in with an English dispatch from Lord Keith bound to Egypt, and was informed that his Lordship, with the fleet and transports, was bound thither.
At Gibraltar, Capt. Brown was informed that the French, agreeable to stipulation with the Austrians, marched into Leghorn on the 10th October; which had greatly exasperated the inhabitants, and excited considerable commotion.
A ship belonging to Murray and Mumford, of New-York, sailed from Gibraltar, (where she had sold her cargo of flour) the day Capt. B. arrived there, and was a few hours after captured by Spanish gun boats, having before been cautioned by them against going in, as his Catholic Majesty had declared it in a state of blockade. She was carried to Algeziras, and was expected to be condemned. The Plague still raged at Cadiz, was said to be at Malaga, and had spread into the interior.
Capt. Brown left Gibraltar in company with two frigates, conveying 38 transports, with troops, to Lisbon. A westerly wind obliged the fleet to put into the bay of Teguon on the Barbary coast, where they found 7 sail of the line, and 45 transports, with more troops; which the next day were joined by Lord Keith, with 4 ships of the line and a number of frigates; and the fleet employed the day and night in watering. Next day Capt. Brown sailed with part of the fleet for Lisbon, leaving Lord Keith with the residue, and most of the troops, supposed to be destined to Egypt.
