ChAsAn A. RODNEY, Esq. Attorne,
General OF the U. States, (says the Bllti
more Federal Republican, since the adj.
Journment OF Congress, has given it as his
opinion, that the embargois only suspended
oy the bill substituting a non-intercourse
and repeating the embargo ON the 18th oi
march, and that if the non-intercourse hill
Is not acted upon at the re.,. % ssiorI, and is
permitted to expire, the embargo law is ID
80 facto revived. His opinion is grounded
upon this position. The embargo is law
without limitation, and cannot be repealed
by limited law.
The words of the act are as follow:

ELECTORAL VOTES.

Mr.. Mac0n moved to amend the Journal
of yesterdays proceedings, by inserting The
letter of Mr.. Walton the elector from Ken
lucky, who did not attend to give his vote,
stating the reasons thereof. He stated his
object to be to state on the journal the rea-
son why one vote was deficient from the
state Of Kentucky, that it might serve as a
precedent on similar occasions. For, if
hereafter in consequence of the sickness CT
inability to attend of any one or more cleo
tors, there should be a tie @etwixt any two
candidates for the presidency, it would be a
matter OF question whether their votes, al
though not able to attend at the time ought
not to be counted. at
Some discussion took place on this point,
it being commended by some gentlemen,
that the house had TO concern with the
causes why any vote. was not received, but
merely to count those which came to hand.
