ing it, to tax into coGderation the flu
tire probable iituation of the territory,
for the happiness of which you are about

capital of a great nation, advancing with
urlexampled rapidity in arts, in commerce,
in wealth and population, and ponetlins
within itlelf thofe energies and refources,
which If not thrown a way or lamentably
mitdlretted, fecure to it long cour(e of

In compliance with law of the laG
FELTON, of congreis, the officers and folders
OF the temporary army have been diff
charged. Ii affords real pleafure to recoI-
leet the honorable teAimony they gave of
the patriotic motives which brought then,
into the ieryice Of their country, by the
readiness and regularity with which they
returned to the iiation of private citizcns.
1t is in every point ofview of iuch pri-
mary Importance, to carry the laws into
prompt and faithful execution, and TO rem.

tice, which the contribution and laws de-
volve on the federal courts, as convenient

reting than this to the public Happiness,
and oncne can thode Improvements, which
may have been fuggefed by experience,
be more bene6cially applied.
A treaty OF amity and commerce with
the king OF Pruhia has been concluded and
ratified. The notifications have been ex-
changed, and have directed the treaty to
bePromulgated by proclamation.
The difficulties, which flfperded the
execution OF the 9th article of our treatv
OF Amity, Commerce ard Navigation,
with Great Britain, have not vet been
removed. The negotiation on this fub-
jet is fill depending. As it muR be for
the intereh and honor of both nations to
adult this difference with good faith, |
indulge confidently the expectation, that
the imcere endeavours Of the government
OF the United States, to bring it to an a.
micable termination will not be difap-
pointed.

tiers Plenlpotentiary from the United
