CONGRESS.
ROUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
From our Correspondent. .
Washington, November 10.
,In thrj house of representatives this day,
the bill making further appropriations for
the support of the navy of the United
States, during the year i807, was read a
third time ; and on the question '• shall the
bill pass'" the ayes and noes weie called
for, and a debate "of about three hours arose
on its pa'ssage.
This bill, it appears, was under discussion
yi sterday. Its object is to defray the extra-
© dinary expences which have been incurred
:by the government, since the attack on the
'Chesapeake, (23d June last) which are spe-
cified in the report of the secretary of the
navy;—[PrihliVhed in {his day's Gazette.]
The principal objection to this bill was,
that it was unc institutional ihth. executive
to draw money f om the treasury* which
had not been speci ically appropriated. It
¦was defended by Messrs. Fi.sk, Alston. Smi-
lie and others, on the ground, that the
emergency of the case justified the purchase
of the articles mentioned in the secretary's
letter ; that although those articles had
been purchased, they were not yet paid for,
and of course congress 11 ight or might not
appropriate the money ; that it was highly
li' cessary and proper to procure the articles
mentioned ; congress could not have been
convened in time to have granted the requi
site money ; and that an instance had oc-
curred in which the executive had called But
the militia, and paid them before the meet-
ing of congress, (alluding to the Western
expedition). It was opposed by Messrs.
Randolph and Quircey, on the ground that
the exigency of this case did not justify an
unconstitutional exeictse of power ; that
when ai tides were purchased by the execu-
tive, the faith of the government was pledg-
ed for their payment ; that it would be bet-
ter for us !¦¦ incur the expellee of a whole
year's session of congress, than that one
dollar should be unlawfully expended ; that
the goyernmer mtry was in very
little flintier state of preparation now than
1 four months ago ; ana that altho'
j bad been once illegally expended,
yet that measure had- been condemned by
tii 1 '; now in pivver, altno' a case of great
emerge ucy,
These ,uv so ne of the leading arguments..
T.e entire speeches will make Several.co-
lumns. All the speakers seemed convinced
of the oeep inside offered tS our national
honor, of tne necessity of efficient measures
and of receiving ample satisfaction. <\i half
bast 2 o'clock ,i,eqne>tr:>nvva>taken by ayes

2. M >.-,rs. >i nid >iph aiiu (i.iiucy bath voted
far the bid. The nouse auj itirned immedi-
ately alier.
I did not take notice of the Echo com
plained of in the nail of the h use of repre
seniatives. The ruo-ri is truely magnificent:
it is, hovyever, too spacious ; and it requires
a voice of 110 common strength to be ueard
distinctly in it.
November 11.
Mr. Dawson, after a few prefatory re-
marks, submitted the following resolution :
fte'soh ,-d. That a comroi tee be appointed to
inquire into the expediency of selling to
sucn states or territories as may want theiu,
aiU arms and ordinance owned by the Uni-
ted Sates, and which may be disponed of
without de.riine.it to the public.
Mr. R. Nelson moved to amend it so as to
read Kes lved,that the committee to whom
was referred so much ot the president's mes-
sage as relates to military armaments, &c.
be instructed to inquire, &c.
Mi. Dawson said he had no objection to
the amendment, and the resolution was a-
dopted as amended
Mr. Randolph said that at the last session
of congress, a.1 act. had passed prohibiting
the importation of slaves into the U ited
States, afn-rthe first day of January, 18O8.
As he had believed at that time that one sec-
tion of this aai comauiod a principle subver-
sive of the right of propeity in a slave-
holder, he had obtained leave to bring in a
bill to explain and amend the law 111 ques-
tion ; but. lrom the lateness of the session
it had not been attended to. He therefore
moved, thai a committee ( f seven) he ap-
pointed to bring in a biil to amend and ex
plain the act to prohibit the importation of
slaves into the United Stales, frorfl and af-
ter the first day of January, 1808. Agreed
to.
,\ message was received from the senate
notifying thai they had appointed the rev.
rvlr. cVl-Cor-nick, chaplai 1, in the place of
tne rev. Dr. Grant, resigned.
The hsuse then went Into a Committee of
the vvh.'le, on the uill authorising tile erec-
tion lif a bridge over the river Potomac,
within the district of olumbia.
Mr. R. Nelson moved tuat the first section
of the bill be ^tiickt-n out, in order (he said)
that the question of " bridge or no bridge"
might .r at once decided. He was follow-
ed oy Mr. Lewis, whose spoke at great
length in favor of the bill. Mm Lewis was
answered oy Messrs. Key and [\ Nelson ;
and at half past 2 o'clock, a motion was
m:de that the committee of the whole rise
an J ask leave t > sit again, which was agreed
to ; alter which tne house adjourned.
For the FEDERAL G ZETTE.
Mr. Henves,
Having indulged me.with the publication
of my two I.: ner essays on the sublet of
the rniliti la «i, 1 am induced to trouble you
with a I'drd.
There is a number of men, who. no
doubt, will be legally exempt from military
ciutv, on account of bodily infirmity, many
of wh. 111 are wealthy But are those indis-
criminately to be, not only exempt from mi-
htai y duty, but also from all costs and charge
towards the support of the military estab-
lishment ? If so, I conceive they may es-
teem themselves in some measure providen-
tially afflicted. However, as both their
persons and property are held sacred, and
p contribute something
towards the support of that general institu-
tion, which is about to be trained for the
safety and protection of us all, nor can I
conceive why a man who has nothing to
fight for but his liberty, shoulu he compelled
to risk his life in a general cause, while
Others who have immense fmiierty at stake,
should remain at home, pursuing their dai
ly occupations, free from fatigue, free from
danger and pay nothing, merely because
the* may labor under some trifling innrmi
ty. widen may cause them neither pain nor
Uneasiness. I think it unreasonable', and
Hop* the legislature may take it into consi-
deration.
""*
1 would also suggest to that honorable bo-
dy, whether it might or might not be pro-
per, to take into consideration the situation
of our non commissioned officers* These
men generally, though men of respectability,
I are not men of fortune ; consequently, can-
not well afford to fjSe their time ill running;
over the neighboihood day after day, warn-
ingothersot their m'rtitaiyduty, (who have
at least ten times the interest it take that
they themselves inn e) without any reward
ore aupeiisation whatever,
To every commissioned officer there is at-
tached sortie decree of honor that may sti-
mulate to military (hay. and as nothing of
the kind is attache 1 10 th* laborious duti s
of nun commissions I officers, 1 think tuey
should be h nimtd with a stimulus of a
more permanent nature.
It may be observed that those who feed
upon the insipid diet of honor al'ne, in its
highest perfection, (antLdo nt/thing )&(%ge-
nerally very iliin upon the ribs ; it must
therefore certainly be much worse with
those who perform much public duty and
receive ntjther honor not prcfit. I therefore
think there should be a provision made for
them by some means or oilier but whether
this provision (it any at all) should be made
by the monies arising from those of our
brethren who are ConsCiehcipusly scrupulous
of bearing arms, or from a tax on such inva-
lids as above mentioned, or by any other
mean, is a subject of consideration for an
assemblage of wiser heads than that of
GUSTAVUS.
