FOREIGN RELATIONS,
HI the House of Representatives., Dec l6.
The house resumed the consideration of
the report of the committee of foreign rela-
tons the second resolution to raise an add
tional regular force, being Yet undecided
DR. Randolph occupied the floor nearly
three hours against the resolution shall
not pretend closely to follow the progress of
the honorable gentleman to the conclusion of
his speech. His exordium consisted oftbe ex
preston of his deep sense of the politeness of
the house in having adjourned to accommo
date him. lie lamented the poor return he
was about to offer for this politeness. He re
GREETED that it was not in his power to Thank,
III the name of the old republicans of eS. his
worthy friend from North Carolina (NIr. Stan
ford,) fer sound, sensible and pertinent
speech, which he had made the other dav a.
gainst this resolution But he feared. that if
grit were to be issued against those rep,ibl-
cans, 1T would be impossible for the constable
with his search warrant, to find them, at least
the most of them. They had disappeared
He lamented the frailty eff some memories
or their aptness to remember to forget every
thing but what subseryed their present DUP
poses Diluted down and frittered away 90
this resolution had been by some gentlemen. it
had become subject of small Importance !:
yet, as argued by others, it had assumed the
most imposing magnitude. 1t was no less a
subject than that of war or peace.

1898 toraise an army to fightFrance, as there is
now to go to war with Great Britain, and thence
TO deduce the Inconsistency of the republicans,
he proceeded to recite some of the causes of
difference between the two republics at that
time, Yes, sir, the French repubtict Mighty
magic, then in the expression 1t had as great
an influence as the terms emperor and king
have in modern days He produced the speech
of President Adams, with the correspondence
Of our ministers to France with NJ Talleyrand
The French Directory had dccreed that every
vessel sailing on the seas which carried an
article of English property, and coming from
British port, should be considered as enemys
property and lawful prize. This decree went
to sweep off every vessel; because he did not
believe that there had vessel, except per-
hapsa Chinese junk, sailed on the ocean.

goo. Howard and gen CLARK, sometime be-
fore the action to ended0or to briag off the
Kickapoos from the Prophets toarn-thdt
they used their best endedv0rs to effect it,
but wnSuccess fatly-that the Prophets fol

0DaS their intention to haze ATTACKED us at
Fort Harrison if ace had gone no higher
that Racoon creek ac0s then fired on and f.
