'Thursday Yurie 10 FRENCH DECREED. f V r Mr. Webster rose, as he said, to call jy. attention of the' house to a aubject of :-pins jderable importance-- task which he ii hoped would havealleo iato thie hands iime other gentlenan: better quaUfied jjjaa! himself to undertake it j He 5tKen trs4 the ' Resolutions: which will be found fn fifFerincr these resolutions it twWhot his inteniion, hf iaid, to enterlin. to say Giscusaion or argument, w w au f nce any proposition whatever on which o -nttetnan - could ad'6'pl different views or Ktiike! different sides. He would merely re mark by way :ot explanation, xjhzt would ; be remembered by all, that the subjects to j which these; resolutions referred, were in timately connected with tHa cause of the ;preicnt war. The revocation of the or t ders in council of Great Britain was the (main point on which the war turned, and it had been demanded for the reason that the ! French decrees had, . ceased to exist. , Tnis then was the point at Issue Mr. W. remarked On what he termed the contra dietary evidence on this ' head, the letter of M . Champdguy on one hand asserting the revocation, the speech of te emperor to tHc free cities On tne ether denying it-- the decisions of the French admiralty courts on one hand and opposite decisions of the same courts on" the other The whole matter in short, was!' involved in doubt. But, on the declaration; o f waf , and iobfc util then' a decree appeared re pealing the French : decrees; ; vft decree hich, if issued, had lain dortnanv mere bfutkm fulmenvaxal after the war conimen ted, and then only made its appearance In March last it would also be recollee ted, the President ha4 communicated to Congress, nniediately before burh nent, certain correspondence between pur government and its minister in 'Frauce, the prominent feature of which correspondehce was, that m an interview: Between our feinister and the French secretary for for eign a5airs, which took place , about the first ofy May, 1812, it was i stated by the Utter that thevdecreein question had been put into the-Jhands of our minister "in France, and' ttansniitied to the French minister in theXJnited States; at .the tirxtb at which it boidateV To shed light bn this ttan3acubnr Mr. W aaidi it was that he moved these resolves, , in tHe discharge, oiwnatne oeemea a ' outy xo nis consucu eats and his cbuntr q;,dclaration Of merits of. the resbTutionrStr C;fansgn called tp order, and enquired of the Spefl ker tvhether the gentleman could pursiie I hW'reniarks when thbre was "no question Dciore tne nouse, put tne mere wtinaraTr ing of a motion ;!The :Speaker said the gentleman could, go bn Mr. Farrovrsaid a few Vor4s more and toofcjhis seat. , Nit "Grundy then rose and retracted eve ry Wordd which he said had been mistaken ly applied to him as impeaching the inte grity .and patriotisutbf the minority ''He ncyern tended to go further than to say? there were some bad citizens amongst us Anf in relation to the remarks which gen tlemen in reply Had applied t6 him parti cularly, he would take an opportunity in Jthecourse of the sessionof noticing them. Mr Webster nowrose, and said he should not stak for the sake of speaking, and if he understood all opposition to the Resolutions to be withdrawn v he should certainl'not idly consume the time of the hbuseV ' - , f . .
