Mr.. HARRISON of L. said all border counties

Mr. WHIrTLE hoped the gentleman from
Pjllsylvania would not accept The amendment
for il would exclude from the benefits OF The
law the people living on the Roanoke river save
only those who live Just on the borders OF Nor'n
Carolina
Mr.. SCOTT-The subject was difficult one
10 adjust, and he thought, as il wes late, il had
better be postponed. lie would, however,
susges, that the inspection laws De not extended
10 so large list, such as hsn, salt, &c, for IN
their case, the principe did not apply, as we
had no interest in having them inspected. he
was ready 4 strike out everything but -four
Mr. KlLBY-An additional reason why these
articles should be stricken out is, thai in his
country naval stores, &c, which do not pass
n,pection. cannot be exported beyond the
United States. If it be left optional to have
them nspec Cd or not they can be exported TO
the West Indies and there sold. He was for
striking out all art cles but four and he did not
care much about retaining even that.
On motion Of MIR. KILBY, the committee rose
and had leave to sit again; and, on motion OF
Mr. SCOTT, the House adjourned.
