Yesterday considerable number ofyt ssels arrived
from Holland, unexpectedly, with corr, and other

FederaHsm.--lt seems that some OF the op-
position, who have Been very lavish in their
praises. of Mr.. Madison, now begin TO rctraet,
dissemblc and criplina,c., This, it is.proba-.
lb!c, will soon degenerate into inycctiye and a.
'buse. The paitisaps of England were as IN
'veterate in their hostility to Mr.. Madison pre-
'vious to his election, as they were to Mr.. JEFF
ferson. But after his inau uguralion, sudden
change was observable in their conduc. and
they endeavoured by tho most degrading atlu-
lation to prevail upon him to give up our na-
tional rights to Britain. Disappointed in their
unworthy attempt, and finding that he is de-
'tcrn,ined TO support the. true interests of lis
country, they begin again to calu,nniatc him.
The late deceptive procedure ofthc British
government required some counterac,ing
measures on the part of the United States
lOf every possible cxpcdicnt, our Cabinet a.
Idopted the most lcnieht. As the British gov
Iernment refused TO ratify its agreement, the
President by his proclamation has placed us
in the sanie situation as in March last. This
measure has met the appreciation Of every
candid American. But such men as Coleman,
Wagner, sc. begin already TO cvincc their
dissatisfaction. There is only one thing that
will satisfy Britain and her partsans, and that
is, our rc-coioni<afian.--Or, as his majesty
would express it--a return 10 our allegiance.

Phonix company had already sustained heavy
losses, from the many fires already rortniuni-

CONG R E S S.
HOUSE Of REPRESENTATIVES,.
FRIDAY, Feb. "a.
CONTINUED.
NON-INTERCOURSE.


The house again in committee OF the
whole,
Mr.. BAssETT in the chair;
On the bill from the Senate, for the inter-
dieting commercial intercourse, &c.
Mr.. Holland thought it would be better
at once to withdraw all our measures, to
undo every thing that had been done, than
to adopt the gentleman's amendment. VI
all others the system of arming our mer-
chant vessels was the most futile that could
be conceived. The merchants would again
come forward and call upon the government
to take up the cause. And was the govern
ment again to be duped by them? No; for
if the government had done wrong, i'll his
opinion it was by going too far for the sup
port of commerce; and their efforts were
rewarded by the Explanations of the same
people who by their cries had induced the
government so to do. Sooner than again
attempt to protect them, if they deserted
their own cause, he would leave commerce
and the rights of the seas to the mercy of
the winds and waves. lie would repeal all
our discriminating duties and drawbacks
that the merchants should be hereafter pre-
,cisely on the same footing as foreign mer-
chants.
The question was then taken on Mr..
Cooks molten and negatived SO to 45.
Mr.. Merton moved to amend the bill by
striking out the fourth day of March, and
inserting the 18th day of March, as the day
on which the partial repeal Of the embargo
should take date, and thus to place all the
ports in toe union on an equality. Mega
tived Sc to IS.
The bill was then read through.
Mr.. d. K. Williams enquired whether
the bill extending credit on revenue bonds
the continuance of which depends on the
continuance of the embargo, would be con-
tinued after the passage of this law.
Mr.. Nicholas said he could only state his
individual opinion that it would be still in
force.
Mr.. D. r. Williams asked whether it had
been considered expedient by the committee
OF Foreign Relations that that bill should
continue in force hereafter?
Mr.. Nicholas replied that the committee
had not had the subject under considera-
ton.
The committee then rose and reported
the bill as amended.
MIR. N. Aston hoped that the house
would not now consider the report but take
up the appropriation bill for the navy.
The house agreed, however, now to con-
slider the report. Ayes 60.
