' Th* Star—a Lenion faff®.
. It may not be amiss to observe says the
'ft _Jevr-Yo"rk Gazette, that this paper, has
been uniformly opposed to ._menca ; and
ever since (He affair of the Chesapeake, has
breathed hostility on all ou> .'em indu tor sa-
* tisfnetion ; white other English prints have
adv cated the cause of the American go-
vernment.
It was from the star we copied the late
4 J alarming news relative to the pro pect of a
¦f/? fa lure of our negociations with/that ¦ coiin-
-—*-----try—and it is from this paper of the 28th
of September,' v e copy the following re-
marks of the late interdict of the Dutch
government.
" Bonaparte's sytem for sometime, has
been to rmpl-.y every means in his power
to exclude a Wirelj ftOM the continent of
Enrotn , and tie has now got all the differ-
ent Stales so completely under his control
thai no choice seesis to be left to this coun-
try but to fi^ht him with his own weapons,
and destroy at once every vestige of a sys-
tem cf neutrality-
" Such we understand to be the detei>
mination which our government has now
revived on. For some lime past the pro-
n afforded to neutral flags'has been of
Service only to Fiance—-in point ef fact no
neutrality has been permitted, but what was
for her own benefit—nay, so inveterate has
been the spirit with which Napoleon', de-
cree of blockade hasheen inforced, that e-
¦ ven neutral vessels which have been captur-
ed and broil!-ht into British ports and after-
wards released and permitted to prosecute
their voyages, have been seised and con-
demned or. entering ?i French port—for hav-
ing been in an English harbor on their -voy-
age !
' On this point we have a fact to state
¦which will strike many of oui readers with
surprise. Several American vessels (some of
which we could name were it necessary)
have been seized in French ports under the
ab ve mentioned circumstances ; but the
American government have employed no
bullying—no threats—nor any intemperate
lanpirige siniilai to that with which their
journals have been filled against this coun-
try. This conduct requires no comment on
our part—it requires action, vigour, and in-
ference io the spirit of those ma-
Fitune .a«'i by which the Commerce of Na-
fci 11s usee formerly to be governed in times
of war—but extended in its principle to
meet and counteract the machinations of an
enemy, '.-hose conduct is not circumscribed
by any of those principles which > ere f r-
nierly allowed to operate for the diminution
of the mass of evils which are inseparable
from times of hostility."
CONGRESS.
RQOSft OF REPRESENTATIVES.
From our Cone-poiident.
Washington, November 18.
P ''its day.
Mr. Murntbrdj pi e*ted\ a petition from
sundry mere! nits Of new-York which was
1 to the committee 01° commerce and
i / „ orinufectures.
\ Mr. Q-uincy observed that it would bi> re-
> Elected by the house that, the President
0+' the L'ni' In hi? m< ssairo of the
e.i'u Oct. ber last, had expres.dy referred to
a certain proclamation fafei'dicting ourw.iters
nt commi.teeoi the whole,
according to the order of the day, on the
repoit of the committee of elections on the
memorial of 30SHUA B.vRo.'EY ; the a-
meridiiient offered by Mr. Bibb.on. Monday.
under consideration. After a deb.tte of about
an hour, the question was taken on the
amendment, and it was lost.
¦. debate of considerable length then took
place on the original repoit of the com mi ttee of
elections 1 but such has been the length of this
discussion, and such the great conslitutiona
question involved in it, that it would be
iinpos ible to give a faithful outline even of
the principal argument used on the occasions.
The speeches themselves will be published
in a few days.
Mr. J. Clay, after some few observations,
offered an amendment, the purport of which
was, that as the constitution of the U. S had
defined the qualifications of a representative,
neither the legislature of any (state, nor the
congress of the II. S. had a right to alter
them i that the laws of Maryland, requiring
a residence in a particular district, was un-
constitutional, and of course null and void ;
and, that therefore Wm. Mac Creery waa
entitled to a seat in the house according to
the constitution.
Before the question was taken on Mr.
Clay's amendment, a motion was made and
carried, that the committee of the whole
rise, report progress, and ask leave to sit
again ; and then the house adjourned, (about
half past three o'clock.)
The following are the resolutions offered
by mr.J. Clay on Monday, referred to in
my letter ol that day.
Resolved, That the Secretary of war be
directed to lay before this House an ace unt
or estimate of the purchases of merchan-
dise and supplies made on behalf of the U.
States by the superintendant of Indian trade,
b-v the purveyor of public supplies, and by
the military agents in the different districts,
- throe years ending the 30th day of
I a i. specifying, as far as may be
practices: the amount purchased, for what
,,. place, and by what
ornc; thet mrlunvnts, com-
| 7 ¦.' h officers.

in tiie
last, specifying, as far as may be practica-
ble, the am iiirit purcfhised m eafeh year, at
what p rt and by what agent, ti
the. emoluments, commissions or salaries al-
lowed to such aj/ent,
Toe firtiowiag is the resolution offered
y,-' 1,1 ¦ v .0 byon withclo ed doors.
B.esol'ue.% That provisi h ought to be
made by law, forbidding" all transfers of
rights of action, and of all monies md
other property either real or personal to or
by any subject of the crown of Great-Bri-
tain, k also loffeidding any citizen or resi-
dent in the U. S. paying any debt or de-
mand to any such subject
Mr. Lyon on offiering this resolution ob-
served t.at.he had understood that Mr.
Er Kiue, the British minister, . had recently
transferred stock p >sses,«4--t>y his tat her to a
large amount m the Amei lhan funds. He
said he considered this as a strong indicati-
on of hostility on the part of England to-
•Aards this country. He expressed the opi-
nion that Britain had in numerous instances
so infracted the treaty bet eenthe two coun-
tries that it could no longer be considered
obligatory on the United States, who con-
sequently p issesscd the moral neht of de-
clining, on her part, to re pect those stipula-
tions, whose observance might be injurious
to her. He said that he thought it became
the U. S. in the present state of affairs to
hold such pledges as she possessed against
the acts 1 if injustice Inch might be com-
mitted by Bntam, and that by adopting
this resolution, she would retain in her
hands the means of indemnity, in case such
acts should be committed; and if they should
n n no injury t. uid ensue from its adoption.
A universal sentiment was unreservedly
expr s.ed that such.a step at this time was
impi .per. Not a sinole member supported
the resolution ; but all censured Us impru-
dence. The general opinion was thai if per-
sisted ln.by the mover thadpors should be in-
stantly ipened, and the (esuluti-n rejected in
public. Mr. Lyon then withdrew the reso-
lution, and the galleries were opened under
the understanding that all secresy was at an
end.
The foregoing contains, we believe, a
faithful statement of the substance of the dis-
cussion, if sucl» indeed it can be called.—
More cannot be expected.
Mr. Macon, who was some time detained
by severe indisposition, has taken his seat
in the house.
IN SENATE,
On Monday the motion, made on the
28th of October, t refer that part of the
message of the president which relates to our
sea port towns and harbors, &c. was agreed
to, and a committee appointed consisting
of Messrs.?Miichili, Adams, Surnpter, Mil-
ledge and Rob'tn.-on.
On Tuesday the bill making further ap-
propriations for ihe support of the navy, &c.
was ordered to a third reading without a di-
vision.
BRIGADE NOTICE.

of the weather, the review of the 3d Bri-
