Nonintercourse Act of 1809, 237.

It was also in pursuance of this power that the Embargo Act was passed in 1807 and the Nonintercourse Act in 1809—both of which were in effect prohibitions rather than regulations of commerce.

In short, an effort should be made to enforce complete nonintercourse with any recalcitrant State.

Congress never ratified the treaties, as required by the Nonintercourse Act of 1790, which mandated congressional approval of Indian land transactions.

It was to protect the Indians against usurpations that Congress in 1790 adopted the so-called Nonintercourse Act.
