HOUSE OF DELEGATES.
rrEspAY, peoemSer l7lh. 1sl1.


A motion was made by Mr. Robertson, that
the House adopt the following preamble and
resolutions:
Whereas this Assembly is deeply irnarcss-
ed wiki the Importance Of the present crisis.
touching our foreign relations, and sensible
OF the encroachments which The great belli-
gerent powers of Europe have been gradu-
ally and regularly making upon the rights OF
tne people of the u. States, until their per
sons g their property have been swept from
the ocean, which va believe to have been
made by the god of nature for the free and
common use of all nations, Who might be pur-
suing lawful trade; and whereas most Of
these injuries have been produced by the
operation of the orders in council, adopted
by the British government, and attempted TO
De justified upon principles not less vicious,
than, IN their consequences, they are iniuri-
Gus and oppressive; and whereas the for
searance which has been manifested by the
general government, arising from an earnest
oeslre to preserve to our country the bless
lnSs CT peace, has been mistakenly constru-
ed into want Uf spirit and iilmness in both
rue government and the people and where
as all hopes of obtaining from G. Britain. b,
honorable negotiation, redress for past. or Sc
crrlty against future wrongs, ought now TO
be abandoned, and other means rcsor'ed 10.
fer the purpose Of securing to the u States
the just and natural rights which belong to
them by the well established principles of ma
tional law, and which peaceable and repeat
ed circumstances have hitherto failed to en-
sure and whereas the Congress of the e.
States, By certain resolutions recently report
ed &c the house Of representatives, By their
committee on foreign relations, seems about
To assume an attitude, which, in the opinion
OF this Assembly, calls for an expression of
sentiment by the people, whose representa-
tiyes we are, and on whom the burthens and
bloodshed OF war must fall-rherefore,
Pesoiyed, That this Assembly, speaking as
they believe they DO, the voice of the people Of
this commonwealth, have viewed with ap-
probation, the uniform zeal, and Just remon-
strances, pursued and adopted Nv the gene
raj government for the purpose Of Obtaining
from Great Britain. by honorable negociati-
on, a redress of the many wrongs inflicted up
on us by her orders in council, and other
measures equally hostile to the interest st the
United Stascs.
Rese!ved, AS the opinion Of this Assembly,
That however highly we value the blessings
Of peace, and however we may deprecate the
evils Of war, the period has now arrived
when peace, as we nCzy HGUc II, is disgrace
full, and war is honorable.
Rescued, That this Assembly will sup
port the general government in all constitu-
tional and legitimate measures which may
be adopted in vindication of the rights and
interest of the people Of the United States,
and in support Of the character and dignity
Of the government thereof; and for these
purposes We pledge our lives, cur fortunes
and our sacred honor"
