Mr. .Randolph observed, that he" knew .not, whether" it was necessaryfdr him to support en). IV's motion : that hg had been informed by him of his application through a friend to|lr. Smith ; and Mr. S's refusing to grant the application, unless it were made through one of his counsel : that he had himself, therefore, addressed a letter to Mi, S. informing him of colonel B's statement* To this he had received a letter, which seemed like a personal communica- tion to himself, but as he had not requested him to withhold it from col. Burr, and as it contained information material to him, he had shown it to colonel B. Mr. B. regret- ted that he had not the letter then about him : but the substance of it was, that the order which had been alluded to, was only for the officer to whom it had been address- ed, and was to be seen only by him. He added, that he had written in reply to Mr. S. that he never would have applied to him for it, but for the two reasons, that it had already appeared in a Natchez Gazette ; and that Mr. Van Ness (the friend of col. B.) had informed him of Mr. S's unconditional promise to furnish the order if he was pro- perly applied to for it. Mr. Burr observed, that to avoid all pos- sible misconception, he thought it proper to stale, that Mr. Van Ness had assured him of Mr. Smith's positive and unqualified pro- mise to furnish the answer, if applied for through counsel, Mr. Hay declared he knew not for what this information could be wanted ; to what purpose such evidence could relate, and whether it' was to be used on a motion for commitment or on the trial in chief. Mr. Burr, Mr. Wickham and Mr. Mar- tin observed that perhaps on both : accord- ing as circumstances might require. Mr. Hay. I suppose this court will not proceed but upon facts. Now a letter of the 21st of October is spoken of; but has this letter been yet identilied ? He hoped that the court would not issue the subpoena duces tecum, until they were satisfied that they had the authority to issue it, and that the information required, was material in the present case. Air. Wickham observed, that the present was simply intended as a notice of a motion to be brought before the court ; which mo- tion might be discussed either tc-day or to- morrow. Mr. Hay declared that all delay was unne- cessary ; but he pledged himself if pos.-ible to obtain the papers which were wanted, and not only those, but every p ,pi>r which might be necessary to the elucidation of the case. Chief justice observed that all delays was obviously improper, and that if the papers were wanted, they ought to be obtained as soon as possible, and not perhaps delay the ulterior stages of the prosecution. Mr. Hay stated, that he had already receiv- ed a communication from Mr. Wickham on this subject ; and intended to have informed him that he would write for all the papers which were wanted (and he had no doubt he should obtain them) if the court judged them material. The fact was, 'hat he had already in his possession Mr. Randolph's cor- respondence with Mr. Smith, and the order from the navy department ; but in his own opinion, they no more related to the present prosecution, than the first paragraph of the first page of the acts of congress. Chief Justice inquired whether the Nat- chez Gazette was in court. Mr. Burr. No, sir; but I have already seen the same order in other papers ; and have no doubt that almost every person has. At Natchez it was a subject of surprise that such an order had ever found its way into a public print. Mr. Hay repeated, that if the gentlemen would furnish him with a list of such papers as they wanted, he would attempt to obtain them, if the court thought them material. Of what use were they ? Were they too to be laid before the grand jury, to distract their attention ; and to present under another point of view another subject for their con- sideration ? He had supposed that the ma»s of matter to be laid before them was large enough already. Chief Justice observed, that it was impos- sible to determine their use without hearing them. He would much rather that the op- posite counsels should majte an arrangement with each other suitable to them both ; and that the court itself was not now disposed to make any arrangement. But if the par- ties could not come to any agreement, he should then wish to hear some argument on the subject to satisfy him, whether the court had the right to issue a subpoena duces tecum. Mr. Burr observed, that he had been told it was the constant practice in this state to issue such subpoenas upon the application of a party. " Chief Justice had no doubt it was the custom to do it where there was no great inconvenience to the party summoned ; that it seldom occurred ; but that he was inclined to think, where great inconveniences would result to the party summoned, that the ma- teriality of his testimony should be fully shown. If papers are to be obtained from a clerk's office, such a subpoena may be issued, and though not upon affidavit, yet where then? hns been good cause shown. Mr. Martin said, that there would be no inconvenience ; as the president might just transmit the papers wanted by the mail. Mr. Hay observed, that Mr. Martin's re- marks superceded any further proceeding ; why apply to the court to issue a subpoena to the president, unless perhaps it was the necessary form for obtaining the papers ? Chief Justice. The reason is that in case of a refusal to send these papers, the officer himself may be pvesent to show cause. This subpoena is issued only where feass of this sort ar« entertained Mr. Hoy said, that no application had yet been made to the secretary of state for Gen. W's letter; nor to the department of war for its order. Mr. Martin. If one department refuse?, we may presume that the others will. Mr. Burr. If the gentleman grants our demand, he may propose any alteration in its form that he pleases. Air. Randot/ih. If any arrangement can be made to obtain these papers, we would rather that it should be a voluntary act on the part of the government. Mr, Bay, I will attempt to .obtain thusepaperS—nay, in fact any that gentTiemeil may want, if the court will but s;iy, tJiey are material. Mr.Wicklnm. Col B's counsel knows" little of the importance of these papers but from himself; and from-that they are fully persuaded of their great importance. The attorney for the United States says, that so far as his persona! exertions- will go, he will attempt to obtain them, and firmly believes that his application will be successful. But, sir, at Washington they may entertain very different views from himself : under such circumstances, it is better to encounter the delay of three or four days to obtain the authority of this court, than trust to an ex- pedient which may be unavailing. But I see no necessity for any such delay ; as the order may at once issue by consent of par- ' ties. As to the order from the navy depart- ment, a copy may be sufficient; the original is already gone out._ As to Wilkinsoji's | letter, we wish to see itself here ; and surely ] it may be trusted in the hands of the attor- , ney for the United States. Mr. Hay. It seems then that copies of papers from the government of the United States will not be received. They are not | to be trusted. After such an observation, sir, I I retract every thing that I have promised, j Let gentlemen, sir, take their own course. I Here some warm, desultory conversation j took place at the bar, when Mr. Wickham j observed, that as the unfortunate expression : fell from him, he thought it proper to ex- ! plain. He had intended np insinuation a- j gainst the fairness-of the government; that ! the distinction he had drawn between an I original and a copy simply resulted from I his anxiety to obtain the highest possible 1 degree of evidence ; hence be preferred the I original to the copy; that if Wilkinson j was here it would be necessary to meet him with his own letter; perhaps in no other way. Mr. Hay. That explanation removes the diffi ulty. Mr. PVickbsm. We -wish to confront him with his own letter. Mr, Hay.—rPer- haps they may not be able to remove the o- j riginal, as it is already filed in the depart- ment of state. Mr. Martin.—Wa are ready to hat remark. The letter these gentlemen want, is addressed to Thomas Jefferson. Have they a right to demand any but public letters? Air. Mar. tin. The president's message said it was ad. dressed to him as president of tiie United States. Mr. Hay—if it be a public letter, it is of course deposited in the department of state. I havsnoobjection, since this insi- nuation has been removed, to repeat my promise to apply for these papers, if the court thinks them material ; and when the business arrives at the proper stage, they may then be produced. I hope that no more time will be wasted in these prelimi- nary stages ; and that such arrangements may be adopted as will prevent this usclesss consumption of time and of bread. Mr. Randolph had no reason to believe, that there had been more delay on his side than on the other ; that if time was to be consumed at all, more would be employed in removing greater difficulties than had already been done ; that he, however, only hinted at this now.—He declared with Mr. Wick haul his perfect concurrence in this measure. Mr. Botts. Unanimously, so I am sure. Sir, I cannot sit down, and hear complaints so unnecessarily repeated about the waste of time.. 'Tis time, sir, to be done with them ; 'tis time, that we should enjoy some- thing like the liberty of speech. Mr. Hay makes, I think, about a dozen times as ma- ny speeches as any other gentleman; and each speech longer than those of other per- sons ; and yet we cannot open our mouths, without his sounding loudly his complaints to the ears of this hall.—On this case of unequalled magnitude, shall we not be suffer- ed to declare our opinions ; without this un- necessary complaint about the consumption of the court's time ? We feel the magni- tude of our duties, and we shall firmly dis- charge them, in (spite of Mr. Hay. It is obvious to you, sir, and every body, that the delay is not with us.^—If, sir, you call for an argument, we are ready to proceed. But if you are satisfied— Chief justice. If the attorney for the U. States is satisfied tiiat this court has a right to h$vx the subpeene Duces Tecum, I— Mr. Hay. I am not, sir. Chief justice. I am not prepared to give an opinion on this point; and therefore I must call for an argument. Mr. Hay. When I said that there had been a great consumption of time, I cer- tainly did not mean to insinuate, that they only consumed it. I have certainly had my full proportion. I thought, however, that my proposition would have saved some time ; and I am still willing to repeat my promise. Mr. Randolph. That the court may un- derstand me, 1 will read to them the form of the subpoena which we wish to obtain. [Here Mr. R. read the sketch before him.] Mr. Botts. We will be under the direc- tion of the court, whether we shall proceed with the argument to-day or to-morrow. Chief Justice. Unquestionably there must be an argument, if the attorney for the U. States disputes the authority of the court. Mr. Hay. Whatever other gentlemen may think on this subject, I have not the least doubt that these papers will be pro- duced ; because Mr. Robert Smith has vo- luntarily furnished me with the order of the navy department. But although I may procure these papers, let it be distinctly un- derstood, that I shall object to their being unnecessarily produced. Mr. Botts. It will take at leist.4 days to interchange letters between this ciiy and Waihington, and 2 or 3 days to copv the papers. So that 6 days will be totally lost to us. In the mean time, 30 or 40 wit- iieesesj and, j6 grand jurymen (ihey might pei-tiaps require them) would hi detained here : and after-ail, the attorney's applica-' tion to the government might be unavailing. Mr, Hnv. Since then gentlemen, sir, will press this subject, I ask no more than that they will wave this discussion till to- morrow. The court was then adjourned till to* morrow, 11 o'clock.
