So the House copcurred with the conl-
miitee of the whole i'll rejecting the resO-'
luton OF censure reported by The militia
~ committee.
Mr.. Cobb then moved the adoption Of
the second resolution offered by him in
committee of The whole, as modified, in
The following words:
{. Resotred, That the late seizure of the.
Spanish posts of Pensacola and ST. Carlos de
Barancas, in West Florida. by the army oil the
United States, was contrary 10 the constitution
OF The United States"
Mr.. Mills moved 10 amend ie resolu-
ton by substituting the following after
The word reS0fred"
That this Heuse disapproves of The capture
and occupation of Pensacola aud the fortress
OF Barancas, by the army of The United States
aud the establishment of civil government
there without the authority OF Congress.
This modification was accepted by Mr..
Goth, but, subsequently, after the obiec-
lions which were made 10 il, he declined
receiving il as his moiion.l
MIR. Poinderter objected 10 the shape
III which the amendment OF Mr. NUS
placed the motion, because il brought
up point for decision which had not
been discussed, OH wliich the House had
made no enquiry, and had no informa-
ton. He did moi know tile nature OF the
civil government established at Pensaco-
Ia, or any thing about it, and was umwll
ing, thus called OH imstanier, 10 give a vote
on II, and if The proposition we're insist
ed OH he should feel il his duty 10 call
for information on The subject. Mr.. Z.
presumed it was absolutely necessary 10
establish government of some kind
there TO enforce The revenue laws, and pre-
vent smuggling, and other illicit practices;
and he stated a case in which The clan
destme introduction of "a cargo Of slaves
into The u. States was prevented by the
authority placed there by General Jack
son, and other cases, &c.
MIR. MiH'S amendment was Withdrawn:
and
Mr.. Fioyd then moved the indefinite
postponement of the resolution but,
having afterwards Withdrawn his mo-
lion,
MIR. BnrJo,V renewed IL: and spoke a
short time, explanatory OF his reasons for
preierring that course. The House had
already slgnifIed It's sense oi the subject ;
The act i'll question, though moi strictly
