gaged in this forbidden trade, not by mixed tribunals sitting in
aforeign country, but by existing Courts of" competent juris fr
-
diction in the United States ; they propose the same disposition
of ,the captured Africans now authorised by law, and least
of all their detention in America.

They contemplate an exchange of this right, which shall be
in all respects reciprocal; an exchange which, deriving its sole
authoriry from a treaty, would exclude the pretension which no
nation, however, has presumed to set up, that this right can
be derived from the law of nations, and further they have
limited it in their conception of its application, not only to
certain latitudes and to a certain distance from the coast of
Africa, but to a small number of vessels to be employed by
each Power, and to be previously designated. The right of
search thus restricted, it is believed, would ensure" the coope-
ration of one great maritime Power, in the proposed right of
exchange, and guarded from the danger of abuse.
Your Committee cannot doubt that the people of America
have the intelligence to distinguish between the right of search-
inr, a vessel on the high seas in time of war claimed by some
belligerents, and that mutual, restricted, and peaceful conces-
sion by treaty suggested by your Committee, and which is de-
manded in the name of suffering humanity. In closing the
Report they recommended an adoption of the following Reso-
lution, viz. :
Resolved, that the President of the United States be re-
quested to enter into such arrangemeats as he may deem suit-
able and proper with one or more of the maritime powers of
Europe for the effectual abolition of the Slave Trade.
Mr. POINSETT observed, that the above Report was the
act of a bare majority of the Committee (of which he is a Mein-
ber), and wished it to be distinctly understood that he could
not lend his sanction to a measure which he considered calcu-
lated to injure the best interests of the country.
The Report was laid on the Table, and ordered to be
printed. .
