i've lain before the house, and therefore [
moved to lay the resolution On the
table.
Mr.. Nelson did not think the two
things so necessarily connected as to
answer the purpose--He wished the
nation and the world to see dispo
sition TO promote the interests OF thel
Spanish, patriots, by showing that the
proceedings by which their names Isl
stained. were not at all connected with
their objects. Not only inthls. but
in every iasta"ce, government has
.,,suigfs,ed "a disposition to countcn-
| NE and support the interest oil theI
Spanish patriots ~ sending eomn'is-
,oners 10 enquire into il, ant! that Wa
are the. first among nations to pro.
.ote the cause Of the reyoiniionisls.
.nd by making no difference betweenI
hp flags Of two nations.
Mr.. Robertson was in favor OF the
~, ,on TO lay On the table, until tue
deceived information from the psesi
mt about the state Of the colonies;
Il rn il, Oh I Information Toes not
,.;abrave this case, tbr resolution may
b. passed.
MIR. si,I!r thought that the objects
/ the two resolutions arre distinct.
sd therefore would vote against
wing on the table, and in favor OF
| sal. FORSYTH motion.
M. Johnson SAID that if suppress
ION h.d any operation at all it was
.sainst the patriots. and that he per-
icrly concurred with the opinion de-
ivered by the Speaker on IA late oc-
aston, Whirh was not, as seemed 10
Il imagined by gentlemen, that the
proceedings OF COVER nment on The oc-
asions alluded TO, ware hostile TO the
..tr,uts, but that in their operation
they had bearing against them; and
lhat they were not favorable TO them
Twas Obvious, from their having ircn
done at the instance 1T the Spanish
suti,ori,i,s. And he declared that he
would vote against the motion Tor
laying the resolution on the tile. as
the President nj sht, # he thought
.wopcr, consolidate the reports upon
4 he Two resolutions into one.
: Gen. Harrison. Of Ohio. remarked,
THAT the President had in his mes
SAGE stated that as East Fluriias had
,eep a subject Of negotiation with the
government Of Spain. as an indemnity
o" spoliations committed on the l..
! states, 1t excited surprise that any
trountenauce should be given TO those
i establishments by the colonies. and
would be difficult TO re, on'ir With thf
{ friendly relations existing between tbs
y United States and those colonies
III Therefore and as an honorable gentle
n men had said, that tive suppression Of
