Mr. MORROW would beg the indulgence of the committee while he made a few observations on the subject. He was sorry this was made a party question. He read the report of the committee of Congress and the propositions of Congress to the State of Ohio; and observed that when the propositions came before the convention, they were pleased with them, but did not consider that the five per cent., which was to be laid out in roads, was an equivalent for what they asked: which was, that the State of Ohio should not for a limited time tax the lands of Congress. How, said Mr. M., gentlemen would ask, was this known? He would answer, by an estimate of the value of both; therefore they agreed to the propositions, provided Congress would make an amendment, and allow them an additional three per cent. to be laid out exclusively in their own State and under the direction of their Legislature: to this Congress agreed. He conceived the question for them to determine, whether the three was in addition to or in lieu of the five; he believed it could not be the latter, because it would go to defeat the original design, which was facilitating the communication between the Eastern and Western States. He was in favor of the resolution, believing that it was the intention of the Convention of Ohio, at the time they agreed to the propositions, that the three per cent. was to be given in addition to the five. The question was taken on Mr. VARNUM’s motion to strike out one-twentieth and insert one-fiftieth, and carried--yeas 75. The question was then taken on the resolution as amended, and carried without a division. TUESDAY, November 29. _Amy Dardin._ Mr. CLAIBORNE called for the order of the day on the bill for the relief of Amy Dardin. The motion of Mr. DAWSON being lost, there being only thirty-two ayes in favor of it, Mr. CLAIBORNE’s motion was taken up. Mr. SANFORD moved to postpone the order of the day on the bill for the relief of Amy Dardin till to-morrow, in order to introduce a resolution for the appointment of a committee to inquire into the expediency of extending the time for adjusting the claims of individuals for supplies furnished and services rendered during the Revolutionary war, with the view of trying previously to the granting individual relief the general principle, whether Congress would repeal the statutes of limitation. After a debate of considerable length, the motion to postpone was lost. The House then went into a Committee of the Whole on the bill, which was so amended as to allow Amy Dardin two thousand five hundred dollars for the horse Romulus, being the estimated value thereof, not including interest. The Committee reported the bill so amended. The question was then taken on two thousand five hundred dollars, and decided in the negative by the vote of the SPEAKER. Mr. NICHOLSON moved to fill the blank with two thousand three hundred and twenty dollars, being the amount of principal and interest on the value of the horse.
