_ Mr, Tracy proceeded to define the opinion
of t e gentleman front Virginia’ on the sub-
ject of perfect obligati , as oneavlricli, be-
"twecn individuals, is sustainable in a court of
‘law. He firmly believed the claimsof tlte
‘citizens ofthe Niagara frontier were sustain-
able on the gentleman’s own lrriiposition. He
ivas surprised at the remark ofthe gentleman
‘from Virginia. After defining, Cle:tl‘l_Y as he
‘had dotie, the iratitre of the perfect olrligirtiou,
‘lie was surprised to see tlrzitgentlcinirir, at a
'5l'Jgl,ejirniji, coming’ to" a decision whether
tlrese claims came within the meaning or not.

b‘ut after having establislrerl the principles of
.'perfect right,he left the cotitrary to be inferred.
He hoped the committee would hear in iiiiud
-vlierisive character. Oitr t'roops rvcrc not there
for the protection oftlic‘coirirtry“against inva-
sion. Such wa"s’ti'ot',tlieir purpose, nor their
object. It was to "make it the seat of war, or
none ofthe coiiseqttences which brought the
rliiimttnts before the house miglrt ltave occur-
red. Govcririneut sent troops to that frontier
year after year, for offerisive operations. Yet
the fact-ivae well known that t|te,'_z0V€|‘"m<‘m§
as a governnient, was destitute ofany public
property on that frontier. It had no barracks,
no arsenals, no depositories for stores, no hos-
pitals. It carried on offensive operations,and
attacked the enemy frorii that poirit,depending
oii-the private dwellings ofthe inhabitants for
hospitals, for depositories ofpirhlic stores, for
barracks to shelter the soldiers from the dau-
gers of an inclement winter. When this is
that one fact is established. The ericriiy had
a right to regard these buildings as used for
the purpose of carrying on ‘the war‘, and to
treat them accoriliirgly. Had they not been
tiscd,-tlie army could not have been sirstnined,'
nor offensive operations contiriited. He ivcrrt
into this distinction. If the goveriirnent had
possessed places for the protection ofsoldiers,
and depots, and barracks, warehouses, hospit-
als, and arsenals, on the frontier, and they
had been occtipied, and relied on, while the
ariiry was there, the destruction ofthese pri-
vate buildings would have been ofatlilfcreiit
character. Government cltose to war front
this frontier,to tnake it a point from which to
annoy the enemy and to conduct all its oper-
ations; and the military force of the enemy
were induced to come and take possession of
the dwellings for public purposes, to stand in
the stead of public buildings. VVhat was the
effect naturally produced on the mind of the
enemy ? VVould they not reason thus ?—“ If
we destroy these buildings, on which our enc-
tny depend, we answer the great pttrposcs of
wandefend our own froutier,8Ldistress theirs.”
This is the natural conclusion ofall milita-
ry men.‘ The army could not remain there
ifthese buildings were destroyed. There was
an essential difference between this and the
purposes ofdefeiicc. lftlietroops of the U.
States had taken possession ofdwcllings with
a view to defend a city,t|ie right ofthe enemy
to destroy buildings thtrs occupied for the
purposes of defence, would be very dif’ferent
from tlratof destroying those occupied for of-
fensive purposes. Hc then referred to testi-
riiorry, to show the state offacts which exist-
ed, and which made out a case so strong as to
justify the destruction of them by the eiiemy,
not only for general pnposes, but for this par-
ticular purposc,llrat they were American pro-
perty, and that they contained the property of
the government. .
He read the deposition of General Porter,
by ulriclt it appeared that 3000 troops were
quartered along the line; that there were no
public buildings for their reception; and that
every private building along the frontier had
been principally ifnot exclusively appropria-
ted to this purpose. After the captureofFort
Niagara, iir Dec. 1813, Gen. McClure had to
go from Fort George to Buffalo. It was late
in the year; there was not a single bzrrriack
to receive a soldier, nor a single depot to hold
an ounce of powder. General McClure re-
treated to Buffalo. VVlrat was his opinion anti
that of his people as to the views ofthe ene-
my ? The opinion was that these buildingl‘
would be destroyed, on account ofilreir giving
protection to the troops. An interview took
place between Gen. McClure and the Coni-
mittee of Safety, when the latter renionstrat-
ed against the occupation, because they would
be destroyed. Geu.t‘vlcClure pledged himself
that the government would make recoiiipense
and advised the inhabitants to give up their
dirt-lfirigs. He went on to state another fact.
After the Capitulation had been signed, and
the enemy Clllt’-‘1‘(‘(l Bufi'alo,'a guard was plac-
ed before the private dwellings, and a selec-
tion was made ofsucli as should be destroyed ;
and it was a siiigttlar fact, that some of the
houses destroyed, were exploped by the gov-
ernment powder which was in them. He
concluded with expressing his wish to ascer-
luiti wflretlrer the House would do any thing
for these claimants or not.

Dztellirzg in Jllissotui.-—Tlie new governor-
of Missouri, Mr. Bates, on presenting himself
for qualification, being asked if he lratlairy
objection to take the oath required by the act
to suppress the practice ofduelling, appealed
to the two Houses to say whether the Act was
constitutional. Upon this appeal a debate a-
rose, and it was finally decided,tipoir the ques-
tion, Shall the Governor elect be excused fr.
taking the oath ‘required by the Duelling law?
that he slroirtd: and Governor Bates was ac-
cordingly, qualified upon the other oatli.——

how corrupt is public opinion in Missotiri.

Gul(l.——-A ‘Nasliington correspom_leut of the
N. Y. Spectator sayshe has lately converscd
with a gentleman from that part ofN. Caro-
lina where so rriuclr gold has been found, who
gave him the following information. The
farm on wliicl-i the most has been obtaiitcd is
situated about l6 miles from l\Iorrt3__:ontcr_v
Court House, and is owned by a widow and
her sons. The metal is found in liiirips of va-
rious sizes: The largest lately for.rird weighed
4 lbs 10 oz. Some time ago a liiirip was pick-
ed tip which weighed 28 lbs. They have as
yet dug only about 192 feet below the surface,
btrt the lower they go the more gold is foriiid.
The metal is obtained by putting the soil into
boxes placed on rockcrs,wlicn water is poured
iii and the dirt agitated till the gold is separa-
ted from it. There are about 150 persons at
work; brit few of them are hired—they are
allowed to dig on condition ofgiving up half
to the owners of the land. A negro lately
found a ltrrirp worth $1050. The gold is of
such virgin purity as to require two carats ‘of
:rlloy to bring it down to the American stand-
ard for gold coins.
Lafayette has come to a determination to

Ernigrufion to Hagr/ti.—-Tlie editor ofthe
Genius ofUuiver-sal Emancipation, prirtrcd at
Baltimore, states that he has received inform-
ation from several of the leading nreiiibers of
the Society of Friends in North Carolina,
that their Yearly Meeting oftlrat state, adopt-
ed a resolution at its recent sitting, to send all
the people of color, about seven hundred, tiri-
der its care, to Ilayti, and that an order was
granted to raise funds, immediately, for the
purpose of conveying them to sortie place
convenient for their embarkation. The
‘ Genius’gives the following explanation of
the tenrire by which the Society hold iliese
colored people :-—“\Vlien the yearly meeting
ofFriends, in America, came to the deter-
iiriiiatiori to abolish the system of slavery
within the limits oftheirjurisdiction, the pro-
vincial laws in sortie parts ofthe country did
not permit an unconditional -eiriancipatiou of
the colored people, who were held as slaves.
In North Carolina, laws oftlris character are
still in force. The slaves that were manu-
triitted by the Friertds in that state, rirtder the
aforesaid regulatiorts, were therefore held in
trust, by the Society. Those whostill rernaiit
there, are so held to this day ; though they
are as free, to all intents and purposes, as may
be possible,under the legal restrictions ini-
posed on them. On account ofthe iiiany ob-
stacles which prevented the removal ofthese
people to a place where they might enjoy the
blessitigs of freedom in extenso, their number
has increased tiritil they have become a griev-
ous burthen to the Society.”
The Editor of the Genius has goueto New
York for the purpose of making arrange-
ments for the passage of the seven lruiidred
persons alluded to.
The Saudi. C'aroIimt Legi'slnlrtrc has ad-
journed without Culltllsg to a fnral decision on

has adopted in regard to free blacks.
It is stated, in a letter from IVashington,
that on some one’s remarking to La Fayette

Burmese Wur.—Since the news ofthe cap-

interest has been felt in the srrccess ofthe war.
An arrival at Boston brings Calcutta papers
up to August. The paper of July 30th con-
tains a dispatch front Sir Archibald Campbell
dated at Rangoon on the 11th, and giving de-
tails ofthe operations oftlte army. Several
errgagen.-.nts had been had with the Burmese
army, which is rated at 12,000 trreir, in all of
which the British had been victorious. In
one day ten stockades were taken from the
Burmese, and 800 oftlteir best troops left dead
on the grotriid—-38 pieces of-artillery,40 swiv-
els and 300 iriuskets were also taken. Three
Biirman chiefs were numbered with the slain.
The loss ofthe British was four rank and file
killed, and tlrirty-two wounded.
