Messrs. Barbour, Mills, nd la: on.- advocated the bill, and Messrs. . I CnanJtr,1 Taylor; of Va. Holmes, of Maine, - ' I.n:nan, Smith Bell, and Kelly, opposed it. i The, bill waa supposed on the grounds, . that the claim was one of strict justice that ' the money Vas actually due for military ser , vices rendered by Col." Laurens, and for: out : fits, which "ought to have been allowed him in his" diplomatic character when appointed a 1 special minister to France ; and that tne.

' i , It was oh iected against the passage of, the - bill, that Col. Laurens, although he had ren dered high and valuable services to the coiin- try, had received all the compensation that he had .wished or expected for those services; . that .the length of time which had Relapsed '. bought to' be considered as a bar, to all such claims j and. that, if the claim were allowed f at all, the money should be paid tothc daugh- - fer, and not the grand-son of Col.
