Congress of the United States.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,.
TUESDAY, December u.
Debate continued. J

(De6ate continued.
Mr.. Rutledge. The fubaance of what
the gentleman fays is that he wants to do
nothing. He had long thought 70, and
he was now confirmed in his opinion.
When the man, whcie lois the world de-
plored, departed from us, we were all
ihroaded with lorrow the mournful event
awakened our deepef regrets ard refolu-
tons exprehive OF the national af1ietion at
his death, and commemorative Of his fer
vices, were unanimously paGed by both
houfes Of Congrels. Thofe refolutions
were not carried into immediate effect tow
ing to the disagreement Of the two branch
es Of the Legislature. Now when we
propotc to carry them into effect, obieeti-
ons are aarted to every nleafure offered:
objections that rife eternally in our hor N
which, whenever we purfue, fly from our
reach, and which always moving in cir
Gle, we can never overeake.
Gentlemen tell US they are unaccufon-
ed to dpend public money without EFT
mates. 10 fatisfy the vigilance of their
ecoromy we obtain them. They then
tell us they are inaccurate their objection
ari1es fer the want of detail: they with
minute itatement of each ieparate charge.
Again we content to crafty their wifhes.
anxious for their lanca;on to our mealures,
that they may express the unanimous fen
timent Of Congreis. We produce an eiti
mate as minute as any ever furniihed by
an artift on any location. The total
smount Of climate expence is 10000
dollars, and to avoid the neceflity of call
ing on Congress again, the gentleman from
Virginia axis for 100000 dollars.
Still after all our trouble and iolicitude
