defence on the resolution of expulsion.
Mr.. Smith did not himself appear. His
counsel applied for further time, and
stated that Mr.. Smith was DESTROYS of

sippi and Orleans territories, &c. The
Senate took no other order on this ap-

House q Representatives, Narch 2.
Mr.. J. Randolph, from the commit
tee on enterprises against the public
peace, reported Ga bill to punish con-
spiracies to commit treason against the
United States" which was twice read,
and committed for Monday. Ordered

Napoleon, Emperor Of France and
King of Italy, when at Milan in De-
cember last, created 5 new dignitaries,
SO commanders and 500 Knights of the
iron crown. He also published a fourth
constitutional statute for the kingdom Of
Italy; by which he adopts Eugene Beau
harnois, his step-son, as his own son, by
the name Of Eugene Napoleon. This
statute declares Eugene the successor
to the crown of Italy, which is to be he
reditary in his male descendants. The
statute provides, that neither Eugene
nor his descendants shall, from this a
doption, ever raise any pretensions to
the throne Of France.

ly open the whole to renewed elaboration
The demands of one party are not to be con-
sidered as absolute, nor the concessions of the
other as unconditional.
What mayhave been given on the one hand
in consideration of advantage to be derived,
in return, from accompanying stipulations,
might have been refused, if those stipulati-
ons had been less favorable, and must neces-
sarily be withdrawn, if they are changed.
1t cannot be admitted that any government
should hold those with whom it treats, to all
that has been granted by them in it's favor,
relaxing at the same time, on its part, the re-
ciprocal conditions for which its owl, faith
has been engaged, or that, after having OBJ
tanned by negotiation, knowledge Of the ut
most exteat of concession to which the other
contracting party is prepared to consent in
the conclusions of a treaty, it should require
yet farther concession, without equivalent,
as the price Of its ratification.
The undersigned is therefore commanded
to apprize the American commissioners, that
although his majesty will be at all times Yea
dy to listen to any suggestions for arranging,
in an amicablc and advantageous manner,
the respective interests Of the two countries !;
the proposal of the president of the United
States for proceeding to negotiate anew, up
on the basis of a treaty already solemnly con-
cluded and signed, is a proposal wholly mad
missible And his majesty has therefore no
option under the present circumstances of
this transaction, but to acquiesce in the re-
fusal of the president of the United States to
ratify the treaty signed on the 31st of Decem-
Der, 1906.
The undersigned requests Messrs. Monroe
and Pinkney to accept the assurances Of his
high consideration.
