The gentleman from Pennsylvaniahad
agreed with him perfectly in professions;
he had therefore nothing more to do than
TO ask him, rs he had heretofore done, 70

q wide range on this question. In the
FIRST place, the expenses were not au.

there was great crisis, ansinsult had

early in the season. he wished his oil
friend from Pennsyivania, he hoped b.

convey them To aptace where they might
be convened without danger, Another
reason was, that they would have been

He had before deemed il the interest Of

Yet he did possess q temper, and could
disptay itwhen our violated rights were

-T----- ~ -
Mr.. Thomas wished the chairman to
state the question before the house, that
sentlemsn might see how far they
dered from Il. I =
The chairman stated the question lobe
On the rising Of the committee in order
10 report the BILL. Z
Mr.. Ne5ufon said, he fose merely %
state 10 the committee q matter OF faeti
and when He had stated that fact, he thoi
hewould be justified ia the inference he
shouid draw FROM h. Considerable pre-
partitions had been made IN the part of the
country which he had the honour to re-
present In Consequence OF the outrage
which had been committed. He knew
il % be i fact that eitizens of that dis
tricthad furnished articles for the ser
vice Or the United States, and rendered
important services, and that they were
now anxiousty waiting for. the passage OF
this law, thar they might receive the mo
mics which would become due I o them
under its SANCTION. This Being the Fact
Ia his district, he had no dub. the same
fact existed in other parts Of the Uaited
States, He did not know that the &C..
e0fiyc ofthe Uaited States had parehas-
ed or paid . cent for sait.petre !: bus IS
die United States were indebted to citi-
zenss in his district, the probability was
that they were indebted in other parts Of
the union. ,
Nj. G. W. CambbeH said. he would
make but few additional reunatkson this
subject; the committee of ways and
neans had conceived thsv had done their
duty by taking the only means ia their
power IN acquire information. He was
surprised that there could be q division
Of sentiment among the members of the
house with regard 20 the manner Of mak.
Jog this appropriation. He declared thai
he. still held the same principles he had
always snaiHsainaas "a farAaa respected
specific appropriations buta case might
happen in which they might be dispensed.
with Is cases of exigency required extra
ordinaryremsdiss. After making some
remarks on what had been said respect
ing heretical doctrines and deyiations
from republican principles, he assured
she1 gentleman on his right tMr. Ran.
dolph) that he was the last whose politi-
cal principles He should follow. The
gentleman from Conneeticut had said the
k5asswsrs called upon 20 make appro-
priations, bur had nor been specifically
informed what expenditures they were
20 cover. The o6jeets Of the appropria-
lions had been desailed 10 the house by
the letter from the secretary ofthe navy,
and BY members on the aoos. Il did
no, 10 Sc the desire of the genie-
man 10 know for what particulars die ex.
