Many other petitions of a local and less general nature were presented, and refer red to the proper committees. Mr. Camfibell moved the following res olution : Resolved, That a committee be appointed to report a bill providing for the apportionment of representatives among the several states, according- to the fourth census. Mr. C. w;as desirous that the subject be taken tip at an early period of the session, in order that the principle on w hich the apportionment should be based, should be fully examined and deliberately settled. The legislatures of several of the states, he remarked, were now in session, and it might be important that the subject come before them at an early day, to enable them to district the states pursuant to the act providing for the apportionment, without incurring the delay and expense of con voking the several legislatures for that ex press object. He thought the Census had been so far accomplished as to enable the committee, that should be appointed, to enter immediately upon the considera tion of the subject. Mr. Cocke, of Tennessee, moved that the resolution lie on the table. Further remarks were made on the sub ject by Messrs. Cocke, Wright, and Mc Coy, which the reporter could not distinct ly hear ; when the question was taken on the motion of Mr. Cocke and carried ayes 74, nays 47. Mr.- Lathrci submitted the following motion : Rtrsch-ed9 That the Committee on Revisal and Unfinished Business be instructed to consider the expediency of reviving and continuing in force, for a limited time, an act passed the 11th May, 1320, ' extending the time allowed for the redemption of land bold for direct taxes in cer tain cases," or cf otheiwise granting relief to the owners of the land where it has been pur chased on behalf cf the United States. Mr. Wood suggested, that the motion of the gentleman from Massachusetts (Mr. Lalhrop) was not perhaps sufficient ly broad to cover the object in view. His (Mr. VYr,s.) attention had been drawn to the subject, and he had drafted the follow ing motion, intending to have himself proposed it : Resoh-eH, That the expediency of extending the time for the redemption of lands sold for the direct tax, under the several acts passed August !, 1S13, January 9th, 1815, and March 5, 1816, and which have been purchased on behalf of the United States, be referred to the committee of Ways and Means. Mr. W. hoped that both would be laid on the table for inspection and considera tion. Mr. Eathrofi assented, and the resolu tions were respectively ordered to lie on the table. Mr. Cook, of Illinois, presented the fol lowing resolution : Resolved, That the committee on the Public Lands be instructed to inquire into the expedi ency of extending the provisions of the 1st sec tion of the act of the 2d cf Marcii last, entitled, "An act for the relief of the purchasers of the public lands prior to the 1st day of Julv, 1S20," to the 30th of September, 1822. The resolution was agreed to. Mr. Sawyer moved that the House do now resolve itself into a committee of the whole on the Stute of the Union, for the purpose of taking into consideration the President's Message. Mr. Wright moved that the considera tion thereof be postponed until to-morrow; which motion was negatived, and Mr. Sawyer's motion prevailed. Mr. Taylor, of N. Y. was called to the chair. Mr. Wood presented the following res olutions : Resolved, That so much of the Pi'esident's Message as relates to the Commercial Intercourse with Great Britain, France, Portugal, and Nor way, their dominions or colonics, be referred to the Committee of Commerce. Resolved, That so much of the President's Message as relates to the constuction of the eighth Article of the Treaty of 1803, whereby I.ouisiana was ceded to the United States; to the seizure of the Apollo, in 1820; to inexecu tion of the treaty of 1819, with Spain; to the renewal of diplomatic intercourse with Portugal, and to all other subjects of Foreign affairs, be referred to a Select committee. Resolve1, That so much of the President's Message as relates to the organization of a more regular government for the Territory of Flori da, be referred to a Select Committee. Resolved, That so much of the President's Mcssacre as relates to the survey of the coast, the navy, navy -yards, and naval affairs; the pro tection of our commerce, and to the slave trade, be referred to a Select Committee. Resolved, That so much of the President's Message as relates to the revision of the Tariff, and to"' Manufactures, be referred to the Commit tee on Manufactures. Resolved, That so much of the President's Message as relates to the subject of Revenue, be referred to the Committee of Ways and Means. Resolved, That the said Committees consist of each, and have leave to report by bill or otherwise. Some discussion took place on the first resolution submitted by Mr. Wood, in which the mover, and Messrs. Wright, Sergeant, and Little, took part ; when, on motion, the committee rose ; and, on mo tion of the latter, the aforesaid resolu tions were ordered to be printed. Mr. Wood submitted the following res olutions : Resolved, That the subject of the marine and navy-hospital funds, and the provision for sick and disabled seamen, be referred to the Commit tee of Commerce. Resolved, That the subject of the duties and compensation of the persons employed in the collection of the revenue arising from imports and tonnage, be referred to the committee of Ways and Means. Resolved, That the subject of intercourse with the Indians by agents, factors, traders, tra ding houses, and otherwise, be referred to a se lect committee. Resolved, That the laws and regulations of the post office establishment, be referred to the committee on Post Offices and Post Roads. Resolved, That the subject of the compensa tion of marshals, clerks, and attorneys, in the courts of the United States, be referred to the committee on the Judiciary. Resolved, That the laws and regulations rela tive to certain persons engaged in the land and naval service of the United States during- the Revolutionary war be referred to a select com mittee. Resolved, That the subject of the mint estab lishment, the coins of the United States and for eign coins, be referred to a select committee. Resolved, That the subject of the public build ings and the public lands in the City of Washing ton be referred to a select committee. Resolved, That the subject of the public ar mories, arsenals, and the munitions of war be longing to the United States, be referred to the committee on fortifications and military affairs. Resolved, That the said committees consist of each, and have leave to report by bill or otherwise. On motion Ordered, that the same be printed, and lie on the table. Mr. Rhea called for the consideration of the resolution which he had yesterday proposed, for the appointment of a select committee on the subject of Revolutiona ry Pensions. The House agreed to consider the same aves 57, nays 54. ; Mr. Moore, of Pcnn. introduced the fol lowing resolution : Resolved, That the committee on the Judicia ry be instructed to inquire into the expediency of further prov"di;v by law for the prevention of Duels among persons employed in the civil, military, and naval service of the United States. After a brief discussion the resolution was adopted, and the House adjourned. Friday, dec. 7. The members ap pointed yesterday to compose the Com mittee on Revolutionary Pensions, consis ted of Messrs. Cocke, Reed, of Mass. Whipple, Wilson, Long, Jackson, and Herrick. After the Journal was read this day, and the petitions from the different States and Territories presented and referred to the respective appropriate Committees- Mr. Rankin submitted the following resolution, which was adopted : Resolved, That the Committee on Public Lands be instructed to inquire into the expedien cy of parsing a law for the better organization of the Land Districts in the State of Miss;ssippi, and for the disposal of the public lands in said State, lately acquired by purchase from the Choc taw nation of Indians. Mr. Mallary submitted the following resolution : Resolved, That the committee on Revolutiona ry Pensions be directed to inquire into the expe diency of authorizing the Secretary of War to restore to the pension roll any person who shall have been stricken therefrom on the evidence of such person's schedule, whenever the Secre tary of War shall be satisfied, by additional evi dence, that such person is in such reduced cirr cumstanees as to come within the provisions of the acts of 1818 and 1820. The resolution was adopted. Mr. Cook, of Illinois, submitted the fol lowing resolution : Resolved, That the committee on the public lands be instructed to inquire whether airy, and, if anv, what provision is necessary to be made to enable the people of the state of Illinois to open a canal through the public land to connect the waters of Lake Michigan with the Illinois river. Mr. rloyd, of Va. opposed the resolu tion. He thought that Congress had al ready sufficiently evinced its liberality to the new states. On a former occasion, he had proposed a resolution to appropri ate a portion of the public lands, for the endowment of colleges. That resolution had received the decided opposition of the new states. A constitutional question was raised on the subject, which, if it did not convince, at least created so much doubt, in his own mind, as to induce him. to forbear to press it. Nor could he, in the present instance, as a member of a state which had done as much at least as any state in the Union for the general ben efit, consent to a proposition of this sort. As well might Virginia ask for an appro priation of the public funds for the pur pose of completing canals to the chy of Richmond. Were such a proposition to be made, he entertained no doubt that it would meet with opposition from the very quarter from whence this resolution had proceeded. "Mr. F. was disposed to leave the subject of canals to the energy and ability of those states through which they pass, and for whose benefit they are in tended. Mr. Cook replied : He did not expect that a proposition, so reasonable as he con ceived this to be, would meet with oppo sition, especially in this stage of its pro gress. The states northwest of the Ohio, he could assure the hon. member from Virginia, felt grateful for all the favors they had received but in the present case no favor was asked. The object of the resolution was not to solicit a donation from the general government to assist in building the canal but merely to reserve a narrow strip of land in the direction of the contemplated canal and through which it should pass. By this measure, the go vernment, instead of impairing its funds would increase them. Such an act would undoubtedly enable the government to dispose of the reservation hereafter at a price greatly enhanced, and, at the same time, virtually authorize the government of Illinois to go on with its contemplated undertaking. The question was then taken, and the resolution adopted. The House then resolved itself into a committee cf the whole on the state of the Union Mr. Taylor, of N. Y. in the chair. The business in order before the com mittee was upon the resolutions of Mr. Wood in relation to a reference of ths several subjects, presented for considera tion in the President's Message, to appro priate committees. Mr. Aelson, of Va. movcdto strike out all that part of the resolutions proposed by Mr. H ood, which follows the word Re solved, and to insert in lieu thereof the following: ; , 1. Resolved, That so much of 4.Y19 V: v Uenfs Messag-e as" concerns the commerciarin . . course of the United States with all foreign nations, and all other matters relating to the commerce of the United States be referred to the committer of Commerce.
