was recommended TO the Legislatures rep
resented in the Convention, to adopt
measures TO protect their citizens from
such conscripiions orimprcsSments as were
not authorized by the Constitution of the
United States. Thissesolu,ion originated
from a project Of the then Secretary Of
War, which believe was not adopted bv
Congress. The Secretary ofthe Conveu-
ton kept journal of their proceedings
This, as understand, was deposited by
Mr.. Cabot, the President, in the office of
the Secretary Of the State Of M,ssachu-
sets, and a copy transmitted to Washing
ton and lodged in the Office ofthe Secreta-
( ry Of State Of the United States. 1t was
afterwards published in certain newspapers.

paper published at Hartford, by Mr.. Bab-
cock. The legislature Of Massachusetts
and Connecticut, pursuant to the recon-
mendation Of the Convention, sent dele
CATION to Washington TO present their re-
spective petitions to the Congress of the
United States. The aentlen,en sent from
Counceticut were Mrs Terry, Mr.. Cod
dard, and 1 think M. Dwight. On their
arrival, the Treaty Of Peace, concluded at
Client, reached the National Government,
and further measures Became unnecessary.
This Is an outline ofthe origin and pro-
ceedings Of the Hartford CUuvention.--
There was not, according 10 my best zee
collection, a single motion, resolution, or
subject of debate, but what appears in the
printed journal or report. II any further
particulars are requested, will state them.
Question by tie Prisoner. Was it not
an object of tho Convention 70 embarrass
and paralize the Government Of the Uni
ted States in the prosecution Of the war
with Great Bri,ain2
Ans'oer. Ii was not. Nothing Of the
kind was done or intended by tho Con-
vention, or, so far as know or believe, by
those by whom it was originated. On
the contrary, its principal object was a
more etfectual co.operation in that war, as
to the defence of the New England States.
Question by the Prisoner. Has not that
Convention been generally reputed in the
United States to be reasonable

lished to that effect, bu, without the least
foundation. believe know their pro-
ceedings perfectly; and that every meas

pointed out, to my knowledge, as incOnsis-
tent with their obligations 10 the United
States, nor was any such act ever contem-
plated by them.
