MIR. Gaston) rested upon the ground that
1t was not necessary to legisiste upon the

the extent OF the treat making power. or
Of the nature OF the obligation imposed nv

pose 1t was intended to rake up the ashes
OF the dispute on that question in the wear
1875. The constitutional principle had
been settled so far that as ii depended un-
on the representatives. of the people. atthat
period on the ffst treaty with foreign
government which had been concluded az
ter the adoption Of the constitution. By
referring TO the Journals of the proceed

the principle established was, {" that when

The recollection of the gentleman from
N. Carolina was, therefore, not faithful.
when he supposed the doctrine of that day
cOntlned the power Of COngress, in the ex-
ecution of treaties, to cases of appropria-
ton only. The rule was general, and an,
pied to all eases, without distinction, over
which power was specially given by the
constitution 10 the legislative department
This general rule, since that period, has
been uniformly and consistently observed.
In the execution Of the British treaty.. no
law was passed at the period ofthe memo
rable dispute already alluded to, but one
approprlatiUg money but the cause might
be discovered by referring to the treaty
itself. None Of its provisions were in
consistent with the existing laws. Suisse
queDtly, however, it was found necessary
to provide by law for the faithful execution
Of the 9th article. BY this article it was
stipulated that when one party was a belli-
