ENFORCING THE EMBARGO.

On motion of Nh. Nicholas, the House re
solved itself into a committee of the whole.
Mr.. BAssET in the chair, on the bill for en-
forcing the embargo, and the several acts
supplementary thereto.
Mr. EHiot said he should commence where
he LETT off the day before Yesterday and pro
coed IN the discussion with all the spirit con-
sistent with coolness. He went almost thro'
the bill section by section, commenting at
length upon them. To every section he sta
ted specific objections. Before he concluded
his remarks, however, the chairman obser-
we'd that the gentleman Could not object to
sections, which had been amended as they
could not according to the rules of the House
be struck uut ard there was now no motion
for the committee to rise. And Mr.. l. clos
ed his remarks, with an intlmation tina, he
would renew them at a further stage of the
business.
The committee then rose and reported the
bill.
The amendments having been gone thro,
Mi. EtfcS Gffered a new section to the
bill repeating so much # the supplementary
act OF Mach 18th last, as empowers the Pre-
sident to permit vessels to- depart from the
". States, to bring in property. This pow
or he said, WAS now not necessary, whate-
yer il might have been, and had been made a
prCteXt ior. ctasiCbs.-Aggeed to without OBJ

section tho H6rds III Itdkic in the following :
