Members of a different sentiment at
tending that morning from Pennsyl-
vania also, her vote was changed, so
that the whole twelve Colonies who
were authorized to vote at all gave
their voices for it; and, within a few
days, the convention of New York
approved Of it and thus supplied the
void occasioned by the withdrawing
of her delegates from the vote.
Congress proceeded the same day
to consider the Declaration of indie
pendence, which had been reported
and lain on the table the Friday pre-
ceding and on Monday referred to a
committee of the whole The pusil-
luminous idea that we had friends in
England worth keeping terms with
still haunted the minds of many. For
this reason, those passages which con-
veyed censures on the people of Eng
land were struck out, lest they should
give them offense. The clause, too,
reprobating the enslaving the inhab-
itants of Africa was struck out in
complaisance to South Carolina and
Georgia. who had never attempted to
restrain the importation of slaves, and
who, on the contrary, still wished to
continue it. Our Northern brethren
also, believe, felt little tender IN
der those censures; for though their
people had very few slaves them
selves, yet they had been pretty con-
siderable carriers of them to others.
The debates, having taken up the
greater parts of the I'd, Sd and 4th
days of July, were, on the evening of
the last, closed; the Declaration was
reported by the committee, agreed to
by the House, and signed by every
member present, except Mr.. Dickin-
son.

any rights they possessed of impos-
ing them, and that so far our connec-
ton had been Federal only and was
now dissolved by the commencement
of hostilities.
That, as to the King, we had been
bound to him by allegiance, but that
this bond was now dissolved by his
assent to the last act of Parliament,
by which he declares US out of his
protection, and by his levying war on
us, fact which had long ago proved
us out of his protection; it being a
certain position in law that allegiance
and protection are reciprocal, the one
ceasing when the other is withdrawn.
1t appearing in the course of these
debates that the Colonies of New
York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
Delaware, Maryland and South Caro-
lima were not yet matured for falling
from the parent stem, but that they
were fast advancing to that state, it
was thought most prudent to wait a
while for them, and to postpone the
final decision to July /; but, that this
might occasion as little delay as pos
sible, a committee was appointed to
prepare Declaration of Independ-
ence. The committee were John
Adams, DR.. Franklin, Roger Sherman,
Robert r. Livingston and myself.
Committees were also appointed at
the same time to prepare a plan of
confederation for the Colonies and to
state the terms proper to be pro-
posed for foreign alliance. The COM
mittee for drawing the Declaration of
independence desired me to do it. 1t
was accordingly done, and being ap-
proved by them, l reported it to the
House on Friday, the 2Sth of June,
when it was read and ordered to lie
on the table. On Monday, the LIST of
July, the House resolved itself into a
committee of the whole and resumed
the consideration of the original mo-
ton made by the delegates of Vir-
ginia, which, being again debated
through the day, was carried in the
affirmative by the votes of New
Hampshire, Connecticut, Massachu-
sets, Rhode Island and Georgia.
South Carolina and PENNSYLVANIA
voted against it. Delaware had but
two members present, and they were
divided. The delegates from New
New York declared they were for it
themselves and were assured their
constituents were for it; but that
their instructions having been drawn
near a twelve-month before, when
reconciliation was still the general
object, they were enjoined by them
to do nothing which should impede
that object. They, therefore, thought
themselves not justifiable in voting on
either side, and asked leave to with
draw from the question; which was
given them. The committee rose and
reported their resolution to the House.
Mr.. Edward Rutledge of South Caro-
lima then requested the determination
might be put. to the next day, as
he believed his colleagues, though
they disapproved Of the resolution,
would then join in it for the sake Of
unanimity. The ultimate question,
whether the House would agree to
the resolution of the committee, was
accordingly postponed to the next
day, when it was again moved, and
South Carolina concurred in voting
for it. In the mean time, a third
member had come post from the Dela-

Adoption of
Declaration
by Congress
(From Jefferson's Autobiography

(From Jefferson's Autobiography
In Congress, Friday, June Z, 1776.
The delegates from Virginia moved,
in obedience to instructions from their
constituents, that the Congress should
declare that these United Colonies
are, and of right ought to be, free
and Independent States, that they are
absolved from all allegiance to the
British crown, and that all political
connection between them and the
State Of Great Britain is, and ought
to be, totally dissolved; that meas
ures should be Immediately taken for
procuring the assistance of foreign
powers, and confederation be
formed to bind the Colonies more
closely together.
The House being obliged to attend
at that time to some other business,
the proposition was referred to the
next day, and the members were or
dered to attend punctually at 10
o'clock.
Saturday, June 8. They proceeded
to take it into consideration and re-
ferred it to a committee of the whole
into which they Immediately resolved
themselves, and passed that day and
Monday, the 10th, in debating on the
subject.
1t was argued by Wilson, Robert
R. Livingston, E. Rutledge, Dickin-
son and others
That, Though they were friends to
the measure themselves, and saw the
impossibility that we should ever
again be united with Great Britain,
yet they were against adopting them
at this time;
That the conduct we had formerly
observed was wise and proper now,
of deferring to take any capital step
till the voice of the people drove US
into it;
That they were our power, and
without them our declarations could
not be carried into effect;
That the people of the Middle Colo
MES (Maryland, Delaware, Pennsyl-
vania, the Jerseys and New York;
were not yet ripe for bidding adieu
to British connection, but that they
were fast ripening, and, in a short
time, would join in the general voice
of America.
On the other side, it was urged by
]. Adams, Lee, Wythe and others.
that no gentleman had argued against
the policy or the right of separation
from Britain, nor had supposed it
possible we should ever renew our
connection; that they had only op-
posed it's being now declared.
That the question was not whether,
by a Declaration of Independence,
we should make ourselves what we
are not, but whether we should de-
clare a fact which already exists.
That, as to the people or Parlia-
ment of England, we had always been
Independent of them, their restraints
on our trade deriving efficacy from
our acquiescence only and not from

SPEED BOATS HELD
UNDER D. c. LAWS
Corporation Counsel Asks
Regulations to Prevent
Damage by Speeding.

Corporation Counsel William w Bride
today advised the District Commits
sioners that they had power to regulate
the speed of speed boats in the Poto-
mac River and recommended that they
issue a police regulation restricting the
speed Of any boat to IL land miles per
hour In the Washington Channel, the
Eastern Branch above Hams Point and
the Georgetown branch above the
Memorial Bridge.
Mr.. Brides opinion was written fol-
lowing q complaint from the harbor-
master that the speed boats around
Hams Point were setting up a wake that
was damaging water front property
owned by the District. The complaint
also was made that the wake was so
great that several times 1t threatened
to upset sand and brick scows unload
ing at the District gravel wharf. Since
there has never been regulation gov
erring the speed of river craft. the
harbors police were at loss as what to
do about the situation.
After examining the possible applica-
bility OF several acts OF Congress, Mr..
Brides opinion held that the ruling
could best be issued under the joint
resolution of 1892. giving the Commis-
Sioners power Ito make and enforce all
such reasonable and usual police regu-
latlOnS as tney may deem necessary
for the protection of lives, limbs, health,

the waters of the Potomac.
The Commissioners will consider Mr..
Brides opinion at their regular meet
ing tomorrow
