We have received New York Papers to the joth of
March. It appears that a Refolution for the non-
importation of certain articles, the produce or ma-
nufaCture of this country, and its colonies, has patted
the Houfe of Reprefentatives, and a Bill brought in
rn it. The matter has not yet, however, been
tobmitted to the Senate. The objet of this mezfure
is to enable the Prefident, in cafe of a negotiation
with this country, to hold out the menace of prohi-
bition, ihould the conceffions required be difputed.
With refped to the culling differences between
the United States and Spain, there appears every
Mira that they will terminate in open hankies.—

' WASHINGTON, MARCH :pi
In the Houfe of Reprefentatives, upon the jth of
March, in a Committee of the whale, upon the State
of the Union, Mr. Gregg propofed a refolution for
the Nnn importation of all Goods and Merchandize,
the Growth of Great Britain, or any of her Colcniea,
until the fettlement of the points at prcient in dif-
pure. This Refolution was warmly debated until the
rith, when it was negatived by a majority dl 70 to
47. The follnwin& Refolutiuns were then moved by
Mr. Nicholfon, carried by a majority of R 7 to jj—
te 'UNITA, That from and after the day of
next, the following articles, being of the growth, produce, and
taanufaeture of Great Britain or Ireknd, or at any of the Colo-
nies or Depeulenetes of Great Britain, ought to be prohibited by
law from being imported into the Unittd States, or Into the tern-
toles thereof, viz. AM articles of which leather is the Mater'''.
or chief value—all snide' of which tin or brats Is the material
or chief value, tin in tibette excepted—all articles of which hemp
or flax Is the material or thief valise...oil articles of which elk is
the material or chief value—vroollen cloths, whafeinvoleerices

Mali exceed —woollen kollery of alt kinds;;ohm
glare, and all other manufatures of ears—diva and plated wares
.—paper of every deferiptioni—naill and (pikes—hats—clothing
ready made.-4siillinery oral kinds—playing cards...beer, ale and
porter —pidturea and prints."
rhe motion for taking there Refolutions into con.
federation, as being a milder meafure, was agreed to
without a divifion. On the ,4th, the bufinefs was re-
routed, and adjourned to the 17th, when the Refm
lotions were agreed to, reported to the Houfe, and
confirmed by a majority of 87 to 35. They were
then referred to a Select Committee, with infiruttions
to bring in a Bill upon them, and Mr. Gregg obferv-
td, that as it appeared to be the fenfe of the Houfe,
not to go further this felEon than to carry Mr. Ni-
cholfon propnfition into drat ;be would move—
" that the Committee of the whole be difcharged from
his Refolution," which was accordingly agreed to.—
The queftinn was then put upon Mr. Nicholfon's re-
folutions, and carried—Ayes 87—Noes 35.
On the 2 t ft, Mr. Mumford, from the Committee,
to whom the above Refoluticins were referred, brought
in a bill founded thereon, which was referred to a
Committee of the whole Houle on Monday. This
Bill was expeCted to produce much and warm dif-
cullion.

The Senate have not yet come to a decifion upon
the fuhjet of non•importation.
Miranda's expedition occupies, almnfl ezclufivelY,
the public attention. His objet is generally helieved
to he to revolutionize South America ; a projeet for
which he is eminently qoali6ed. The American Go-
vernment were not, it is afierted, acquainted with
Miranda's intentions.

Miranda's (Ailing is known at the flavannah, and
meaftites have been taken to frultrate deligns.
