It is, there foi e, slot only false, but stupid, to affect to believe that the war is unpopular, and that the Government Is odious in the eyes of the people. The whole of the Government is of the people. All its members are chosen by them ; and, if it ceased to please • them, it would . sonn cease to exist. •Nothing, there lore, can be so absurd as to suppose that a measure so important as that of war has been adopted against the wi4 of the people. Teis opinion has been attempted to be sustained upon the es Bence of a riot at Baltimore, the object of which was thesileticiiig of a Newspaper, and the mid of which was bloodshed on both sides. B u t, .from this fact the exactly contrary conclusion ought to be drawn. The Newspaper its question was, it appears, hi stile to the Tzar ; and, therefore, a riot, in order to silence such Paper, cannot he considered as a proof of unpopularity attached to the ear. The truth appears to have been, abet the Editor of the Paper was pretty notorious as being bribed to put loves what gave so much offence to the people, who were, up o n this pertimilar occasion, unable to imi. late the tolerant conduct of their Government. It was; however, very wrong to asenil the corrupt tool by (els.. He should have been left to himself; for, though this species of attack:upon the liberty of the press it far loss injurious to that liberty than the base attacks, dictated by despotism ' and masked un der the visor of forma dear tn. freedom ; still it is an attack; if is answering statements or arguments by Violence; by something other thau statement and are gumeat. Therefore. I disapprove •of the attack ; but I easusut consider it as a mark of the unpopola. rity of the war, of •he recite coetrary of which it is, indeed, a s•try bed proof. Much knviee. in our hiret Newspapers, been said of this riot :it liavieg b represented as a proof of bad goveeemeat i t Ami rice, and (which is mere to my present purpOs(.) as a sign of approaching anarcho, tontth LT to the overthrow of that Govern. pea 41sich has declared war against us, I must ties 'pass a little furtive upon this head, to beg your Re) al . llielinets to believe nothing that the hired men say up.ni the 'subject. When the war with France began in 1793; that war .which appears not to pro. raise aey end ; when that war began, many riots took place in gugland against those who were op. posed to the war; many houses were destroyed; maey printing-niices dentelished ; many booksellers put s o 11 get ; many men were totally ruined, and that, too, by mobs marching and killing under ban ner., nit which were iescrihed a 'CHURCH AND Kt NG." Now, as there was not a general anarchy to follow these wings in England, I beg your Royal lA/hefts not to be persuaded to believs.,thatanarchy will fAlow the demolishing of a printing-office in the United hates of America, where there are more lalewspnpe 3 thin there are in all Europe, this coon. try included. Once more, however, I express my slisapprohation, and even my abhorrence, of that demolition ; whlcn was the less excusable, as the assailants had freed'm, real freedom'of the press, to anhwer any thing *hich the bribed printer might pub. and evesl to publish an account of his bribery. Such. however, appears to have been the popular feeling in favour Of the roar, that no consideration was of sufficient weight to restrain the resentment of the people against a man who was daily declaiming against that measure. If we conclude, as I think we must, that the pee. e e of America were in favour of the war at the time whets it was declared, the next thing to be considered is, what effect the intelligence of the repeal of our Orders in Council will hare in America. The goes. Ilion is, in short, whether that intelligence will make such a change in the sentiments of the people of America as to prodisce peace. I think it will not. There are some personl in England who seem to believe, that the receipt of that intelligence will, at once, puf at' end to the war ; for, they do not ap pear to cotisid r any treaty necessary to the restgrae tion of pence with America. Net only must there be a negociation, and a treaty or cot:Jot/iv?, h-'fore there can be pence, or even• a suspension of arms ; but, I em of opinion, that no suclt treaty or convention will lie made without more hei done by us than mcr;Zg the repealing of oar Onto sin Council, which. removes but a part, and not, by any means, the greatest part, of the grievances of which the Amt., icans complain. So long ago as the mouth of February last, as will be • secn by my motto, I expressed to your Royal , Ilielmess my otenion, that the more repeal of the Ortle.s in Council would not saCsfy the people of America. It was, therefore, with no small degree of surprise, that I saw (from the reports in the, Newspapers), that Mr. Brougham had pledged him. self to support tlie Ministers in a ear against .sane. nets, if she should not be satisfied with their measure of repeal. I was surprised at' this, because Mr. Brougham must have seen, thatshe complained of the impressment of her seamen, and of divers other things, which the deemed to beinjuries. Besides, tiid Mr. iiirhuxharn imagine; that our l'ifo 'years' nearly of refusal to repeat *ere to go off 'without any thing dehe by us in tW way of Compentation? The history of me tratistittleh ii this"; The . Anierican President enehonces, liu tab, Ault, unless we repeal our Or. dens by a arts& day, in the same way that France. had done, a certain 'hew shall go into forte against us. We do not comply; we continue in what he lie calls a violation of his country's rights for a year and a half after the time appointed for repealing; at the end of that time an enquiry takesplace in Pattie rnent, and two volumes are published, containing evidence of the ruinous to vs of the measure which America has adopted. Thereupon we repeal. But, ! me , Air. Brougham can hardly went to be told, that Aine ,e ce r e„; made no promise to be satisfied . with eny repeal;which ,take;Plite afro . het Act' ~lillal . ~... , OM mom , elionld go lutoilrieiFlndeed, she has never made any such. promise ; not was it to be supposed, that, when she saw that her measure of exclusion was ruin ing us, she would be content with our merely doing Ltrai which was calculated to save ourselves. This, in fact, is our language to her: we refused to'repeal our Orders till we found that the not repealing of them was injurious to ourselves, and, therefore, wo now repeal them, and, its consequence, call upon you to art es if we had never refused. This, Sir, is what no nation can be supposed to listen to. IVe do what America deems an injury; we do what she says is sufficient to justify her in declar ing war against us. And, after a while, we desist; but notoriously because proof has been produced that perseverance is injurious to ourselves. In the meanwhile sho declares war to compel us to do that which we have done before we hear of her I declaration. And, under these circumstances, can we expect her to disarm, until she has obtained something like indemnification for the injuries which she alleges she has sustained ?—lf, there were in existence no ground of dispute other !than that of the Orders in Council, it appears to me, that America Gould (especially with our l'arliamen. tary evidence before her) never think of peace with . out a compensation for the vessels seized illegally, as he says, under the Orders in Connell. Otherwise she tells the world, that she may be always injured with impunity; because, the utmost that any nation has to apprehend from her hostility is to be compelled to cease to violate her rights. Upon this principle she may be exposed to a like attack the next day af ter she has made peace. Either, therefore, she com plains without cause —or, the mere repeal of our Or ders in Council ought not to satify her. Besides, Sir, it appears to me, that, even suppos ing that there were no other ground for the war, on her part, than the existence of our Orders in Coutt. cil, she is bound, in fairness towards the Emperor Napoleon, to obtain time kind of compensation for what she has suffered from the executiJn of our Or ders in Council after the time that he repealed his Decrees. If she make peace with us, and place us upon the same footing with France, without obtain ing such compensation; he will Essuredly allege par tiality against her, since she will have suffered us to continue to do with impunity, for a year and a half, that which she has made him cease to do. It was, therefore,l repeat it, matter of great surprise with me, that Mr. Brougham should have given the pledge above-mentioned ; though I hope your Royal High. ness will be advised better than to pursue measures that shall put him to the test. Compensation for the property seized under the' Orders in Council will, I think, be deemed ; and, if .the Orders be recognised as a violation of the rights of America, I do not see upon what ground such cons-; pensation could be objected to; but, Sir, as fat as I relates to ourselves, I trust, that the means of making ! such compens'atioa would not be demanded of the; people, but would be taken from those who have re ceived the amount of the property seized. With this, however, America has nothing to do ; she can only demand compensation ; but she may extend that de mand to the amount of her expences in fitting out ships of war and in raisingand sending forth an army. 44 Indeintike for the past and secu►•it,y for the f uture" is, Sir, a phrase not unktioe o amongst the statesmen who adorn, and who have adorned your and your royal Sire's court; and, I do not know of any maxim in public law, or in diplomacy, that forii:ls a Re-; public any more Ono a monarchy to make such a demand. If we do allow that America has just cause of complaint, we cannot well refuse her indemnity at least; if we do not allow that she has just cause of complaint, we do wrong, we act a base and cowardly part, if we desist from doing that which she com plains of. Upon what ground it is, then, that Mr. Brougham expects an immediate cessation of hostilities on the part of America Lam at a loss to discover. lam at ' a loss to discover upon what ground it Is that he has made his pledge, or, at least, the pledge which has been attributed to him. Either he must look upon the Orders in Council as the sole ground of the Ame- ' rican declaration of war, or he must suppose there to be other grounds. If he looks upon them as the sole ground, he must, I think, suppose that America will not lay down her arms without obtaining indemnity for such heavy losses as those Orders have occasioned her; and, if he looks upon the declaration as having been par' ly produced by other subjects of complaint, I he must necessarily suppose, that an adjustment as to those grounds of complaint mist precede a cessation of hostiiiiies. Whatever pledges may have been given by any persons, it is for your Royal Highness to lend an car to the voice of reason; and, I am-greatly de ceived, if that voice will - not reCommend to you an expression, as speedily as possible, of your readiness to cause the officers of the fleet to cease to impress any person out of American ships. This, as I have before had the honour Co assure your' Roya! High oess, is the complaint which has, at last, ift reality, produced the war between us and our American bre thren. There have been many subjects of diffe rence; many grounds of quarrel, but this is what finds its way to the hearts of the American people. They would, I verily believe, have endured all but this ; this, however, [ knew they would not endure, and I told your Ministers and the public so long ago. If lam asked whether I think, that the ceasing to impress people on board of American ships would cause many of our sailors to desert, I answer, that do ;tot know; but, that I do not see rohli it should ? I do not see why Englishmen should like the Ameri can service better than our own. And, really, I must say, Sir, that I think, that to 'entertain any such apprehension squares not well with the tenor of , our national songs about the valour and patriotism' of our" tars." I think it exceedingly humiliating to us to suffer it to be said, or to act as If we said, ; that we must retain the power of iMpressment l or . ? petsonal seizure, on board American ships out at sea, ! , for fear the giving up of that poWer should cause onr, of ', fleet to be deserted. Sir, I am one of those who $1 love to 'believe,' that English seamen do not wat ae 'torte telndece them to fight for , their country. t IC is, iu my eyes, a most mortifying thing to proclaim fe to the world, that we are likely to have war with America, and that we appear to prefer war with I Anierica. to the giving up of the means of detecting of and seizing English sailors, deserters from the King's ti , service. This so WI, comports with all our assertions ui 1. .r~ ~ _ respecting the freedom we enjoy, and also respeclitr , our devotion . to our King and our glorious Co ns tit u e : tion ; ter, it appears to me, that, if the world b e li eve in the necessity of this power of impressment, it must think either that our boastings of our blessed state are untrue, er, that our sailors are not the most wise or the most loyal set of men. lam for wiping off this stigma ; and, without crying -or fainting away, as Sir Vicary Gibbs is reported to have done at Horse : monger-lane, i am for showing the Yankees and the whole world, that we want no terror to keep our sea men to their duty ; that we are not afraid of their seulking from our fleet to take refuge ill American ships ; that we entertain not the disgraceful appre hension, that those who have once had the honour to sail under the ro.yal flag of the House of Hanover will ever prefer that of the American or any other Re public. Honour, Sir, as well as policy seem to me to dictate the giving up of this power; and, as the giving of it up might, and, as I think, would cause the restore. tion of peace between England and America, I will not be persuaded that such a measure does not accord with the wishes of your Royal Highness. As to "the.exhausting the resourc2s of America," : which now begins to be talked off by that most cor rupt of Newspapers, the Times, I do most earnestly beseech your Royal highness to b'ar in mind how long the late Pitt promised this deluded tuition that he would exhaust the resources of Republican France ! Sir, Mr. Madison, though a very plain-dressed, sleek-headed man ; though he wears neither tails, nor bags, nor big *wigs, nor robes ; though he dresses in a pepper-and-salt coat and a nice climb)/ waist coat, knows a great deal more of our real situatiou than I believe many of your Ministers know of it; and, 1 should not wonder if he knew almost as much of it as your Royal Highness's self does. He is a man, Sir, who is not to be led by our hireling prints ; he sees our gold at above floe pounds au ounce; he has seen Acts passed which, in effect, force the cir culation of our Bank-notes ; and, seeing this, he does not want any body to tell him what is coming ; seeing this he will laugh at the idea of our exhaust ing the resources of America, the capital of whose whole debt does not amount to a tenth part of one half's year's interest upon our debt. This ground of hope is, Sir, more visionary than any ether. In deed, they are all equally visionary. There is no • hope of any thing but loss and ibjtn.y to us by aWar with America. I have now done all that I am able to prevent this calamity. If the war proceed, I shall say as little about it as circumstances will permit. I have lost no occasion of endeavouring to put aside this evil ; and, when the result of the contest shall be lamented— when those who now rejoice at the idea of doing mischief to free men, shall be weeping over their folly, I trust that your Royal Highness will have the justice to remember, that this war had a decided opponent in your faithful servant, Sept. 15th, L WM.
