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 and ;HJfS,and,the Girl passed ayes 124, noes 2.

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. * 1 do not knoiv of one Company that has the number of nm-commis io,ied tjjicers re quired by Laaiv, nor is it in the nature of things to expt'et more gr mr.lly to accept of an office so pregnant wich fatigue and t -ry Goods, Am -¦ g t which are, 20 bales ILND1A GOODS ; Consisting of Gurralis, M.iKHiodies, lh.lt.as, Saunas, Cossas, Checks, And t cask Hardware, 1 bule jTicklen'Mirg, The above are damaged and sold for account of the underwriters. 1 ba e Of.th, 2 c.'se;. ce.tton and worsted Hosiery, 1 d brawn, i theh V v ¦!, Coi Is, Irish Linen, Coning, Flan 1K-S, &C &C N.
