A short time after the rece ption of the documents the Senate went in to executive session, when they were read. It appears the design of the President was to arceriain the views of the Senate as to the new ar.icle to the treaty withdrawing the claims for consequential damages from the American statement of the case, with the provision, in substance, that whenever Englandor che United States shall be at war, and the other a neutral, the neutral will make no complaints for any inti-ect, remote, or consequential injuries of losses resulting from a failure to observe neatral duties. As itis known that Great Britain will agree to the proposed new article, and that both governments are anxious to «ave the treaty by this means it was thought proper to place the Senate in possession of all the facts, in ordec that the Executive, acting upon their advice, might pursue the negotiation so as to secure the consummation of the treaty in a manner satisfactory to the two governments. There was @ brief debate after the reading of the docu- ments involving the merits of the question. A motion was made to remove the injuction of secrecy. but this failed, and the message and documients were ordered to be printed in conti- — and referred to the committee on foreign relations, 8 Sunar, the Presi Spring and Summer.
