such an opinion and think aprinter in the

learn that the late supplementary embargo
law is not generally approved that some
few have gone so far as to pronounce it I'M
constitutional. But that the majority OF the
people possess the sentiment ascribed to
them in this paper is wholly false and I'M
true. Declarations of this sort have per-
nicious effect on the community. AS re-

THURSDAY, Feb. IS.
ADDITIONAL DUTIES.

The house resolved itself into commit
tee of the whole, Mr.. Masters in the chair,
on the bill for imposing additional duties on
all the goods, wares and merchandise mn
ported into the US.
The bill was amended SO as to take effect
/" from and after the passage thereof
The proposition offered by MIR. D.R.R'sl-
Eanas when the bill was before under consl-
Iteration was withdrawn.
Mr.. Coax renewed the proposition, viz. to
confne the duties to be INCREASED, to goods
imported from G. Britain and France and
the colonies of either; and spoke an hour
and a half in support of his motion and IN
opposition to the non-intercourse system
He was in favor of discriminating duties
because he was opposed to the non-inter-
course, which he considered the best means
of depressing our navigating interest and
advancing that of Britain; because the pro-
duce of the II. S. would be carried to some
place of depot in the vicinity, and thence be
carried to Europe in British bottoms, whilst
a large proportion of American shipping
would be inactive. He thought that under
the arming system we. could trade, with at
least as much honor and with much more
profit, than under the non-ntcrcourse sys-
tenn. lie contended that the non-intercourse
system was precisely calculated to destroy
that moral principle which had heretofore SO
strictly enforced our revenue laws; that the
system Of restriction was partial, operating
so equally on the people of the south, that
no individuals particularly suffered from it,
whilst in the north and east individuals were
ruined by it, and thus general distress pro-
duccd; that it would be the most disc ourag-
ing act to the mercantile interest ever passed
by the government, for it would throw the
trade in all the produce kept in the country
by the embargo, into foreign hands at the
expence of the American merchant that
the system could not be enforced with so ex-
tensiye frontier and sea coast as we pos
sess; that it was measure calculated to
produce irritation on foreign nations without
having the least coercive effect; that it was
political suicide, without the consolation of
company in it. Mr.. Cook was, with his
constituents, in favor of further negotiation,
and firm assertion of our rights which, if
refused to be acknowledged, he would main
tain. TWAS high time to abandon visionary
schemes and impracticable projects, and to
pass good plain common sense laws. He
believed that this discrimination of duties
and arming our merchant vessels would be
such law. He spoke more than an hour &
an half.
Mr.. Cooks motion was negatived by
very large majority.
The committee then rose and reported the
bill.
The amendments made in committee of
the whole were severally agreed to by the
house and on the question that the bill he
engrossed for third reading, Mr.. Liver.
more called for the yeas and nays. There
were for it IS, against it ~.
Itwas subsequently read third time, and
opposed by Messrs. Dana, Macon, Van
Horne, Lyon, Cook, Minor and Sloan,
