President of the United States, shows that he
has been governed in the settlement of that gen

Mfr. Madison and Mr.. Monroe's Admlnistra
tons, which he proves by the records of th'
State Department. and he informs the HOUSE
that Mr.. Sergcant's and Mr.. Rochesler's sal
aries, did not commence, until they were order
ed to repair to the place of cmbarcation, which
was not until about the middle of October. III
documents are not before us, but our memory a

too. then. the Faction was caught in their ow
net. having proposierouslg taken up the notion
that the salaries commenced with the appoint

Glamour, which they knew they would excite, b
official confirmation.

these b%ungieis, but We can say, with certainty
that we never saw this Holy AAld7lce as niue
