of the war, were prisoners of war, the
measure being contrary to the law of na-
tions, and altogether unprecedented in the
annals of civilized society. It would there-
fore be highly improper in the electors of
this country to sustain such an objection, as
it would in fact be sanctioning and approv-
ing what the Government of the country
had reprobated as a gross violation of the
law of nations. Mr Adam, on behalf of
Mr Ferguson, quoted two precedents,
where gentlemen similarly situated had ob-
tained seats in the Parliament of Great
Britain-General Burgoyne during the A-
merican war, and Lord Yarmouth, who
had been lately elected; the latter, in par-
ticular, was in the same situation as his
Hon. Friend. The votes for Mr Fergu-
son were 82, for General Wemyss 72. The
former was of course declared duly elected,
but Gen. Wemyss contended, that altho' he
was in an apparent minority, yet upon the
grounds stated in his several protests, he
considered himself as duly elected.
