BRITISH RET7ETP. W VII IN DlSCiunt ; OR, TIM FRAUDS OP Ti(Z TEAL FLAW. There is s;) much important matter in this Work, that we deetn it our duty to submit further Extraas from it to our Readers. The Author has clearly proved that iii all the late complaints which have been made on the subje& at Violations of the Neutral Flags, Great Britain has been "more sinn'd against that sinning ;" and that uncles the et-lba of other Maritime States is .Igilantly ohserved.by our Rulers, and particularly of•th.it Sr ite which has presumed to represent itself as- chiefly aiigrieved, our Commerce and Naval Con st queue willincalculable suffer injury. " Let us next regard this spurious Neutral Com maree in another view, as a great discouragement to our Naval Service. • The wise, liberal, and' efficriclonS palicy of this . Country has been, to v . est the property of maritime priz.!s wholly in the Captors ; and hence much of the activity, and enterprize that have so long, charaterized the British Navy. • las give full credit to our gallant Oft - leers fa. thc. diiinteresteil patriotism, and that love of glory, \' hiCh 0101 t. to be the main-springs of ini litfr.:y charaEler, and Which they certainly possess•in a inas.t minent degree.- Rut, it would he romantic and ab•itird, toy suppose that, they do not feel the value of that additional encouragement whieh His Ma m esty and the L egislature hold• out to them, in giving them the benefit of the captures they mal e. What else is to enable the veteran Naval Officer to enjoy, in the evening of his life, 'the comforts of an e‘uy itwoine ; the fatherto provide for his children; or the husband for an affettionate Wile,' Who, from the fisques he TUBS in the service of his Country, is pecoliArly likely . to survive him By what other means can a s iaoricavAdmiral, when raised, as a reward' of his illustrious uCtions, to civil and here. ditary'llonours, hope to support his well-earned rank, - and proyide thr an enabled 'posterity.? The pensic,n he may' obtain be temporary . , and scarcely adequate even to his own support in bit new and elevated station. It is froarthe Ene mies of his Couinry, therefore, that he .hopes to rest the means of comfortably stistaining- those-ho nour3, Which he his gained at theirexpenee. z s to . the . cornmort seamen and marines . , the, natural motive sof dislike' to the Naval Service are in their breasts far more Fffeetually combated by the hope of prize-motiee, Wan' by all the• other in :Nee.; mentethat are, or Gen 'propoSed to them. The nautical charaaer is .peculiarly of a kind to bein . futenced by such dazzling, bat precarious prospeas. They reason, however, and calculate on the chances and the value of success ; witness the proverbial remark, that a Spanish War is the best means of Inanning our Navy. " Never, surely, was the encouragement of our Ntwat Service mare important than at the present period; and never were the rewards of that service, more meritoriously or gloriously earned. Yet *hat are now the rational hopes of our seamen, in regard to the benefit of prizes ? On whatever station they may he placed, and whatever see they may be cross ' ing they look out in vain for any subjeet of safe and uncontested capture. Are they 'sent to the East or West ? thoueli sickly, used to be 'lucrative stations; especially in a War with 'Spain : but now the rich exports of the hostile colonies presett to there only the cup of Tantalus. They 'see the same valuable cargoes passing continually under their sterhs, whieh wed formerly - to make the foettmes of the captors ; Nellie ermigns of neutrality noel/ wave over them ell, 'and prohibit a seizure. 7 . " they,' in concert with the lend forces e tack and conquer an hestile island, the reward of their aueeeesthl valour is still wrested cram them in the same vexatious way. They find none but Neu tral Flags in the harbour, and none but property ale 'edged to be neutral afloat*. In short, except a small Privateer or two, of little more value than,may suffice to pay the charges of condemnation and sale, thee richest seas of the globe, though bordered and thickly studded with the most flourishing Colonies of our Enemies, have no safe booty to yield to thoSitrilen of the.l3ritiJt Navy. It is painful to refleat, that these brave men lose the ancient fruits oidistaut service, while en during more - that its ordinary hardships. In the \Vest Indies, particularly, theyeeffte- far* more by the raveges vhf dieeaat, than When the Spanish Gal leotie, and the Convoys from elui -French Antilles, consoled • them 'and rallied their spirits. Then too, viaory, either in possession or prospea„aften ene • livened that languid service, and re-ennnated the sickly crews ; but now they meet no Enemy worthy or their valour.: Their oat) bat most' -dishearteu lug, foes are thi! Vever and the Neutral Flag. . " If we took nearer home, the reverse, in the situation of our itearrieti, Is not Ittis singular in' elk- . 'cutiraginge The Mediterranean,• the Boy of Biscay, *the Channel, • the German Ocean, are 'covered with the eeporte of Spaiu, l lcrlfatPrance, and their COlomes, tch shipping - bound' their ports ; but \tobert are the rriMtS tit .

The c o nsequence naturally, is„ that but 3 Very few of these pscudo-neutrals,which are tilet with 0-'Olll4lO l 4t BCa, are brought in for -jedieial . _ * e lhe Nivrclialometi taken . by Lord St. Vineenf ari.l Sir C notes Gmy, MartiniqUe auti..Gu'idaloupe, were tiers with theireAfgivii yvere re ;; : r~:E~ La t, 1)(1' , 1 by 1J crlit7; and, that a still .smaller proportion ,of them are pac. , . , ,6;utecl as prize; though the Law Officers of the Crown in the Admiralty, in a great majo rity of the eases they`xeamine, have scarcely a doubt that the property is hostile. They know by expe rience the fraudulent mature of the paiwrs but they know also the artful and elaborate perjury by which- those papers will he supported, and which, however unsatisfaEtory out of Courti it iui.ll be impossible ju . dicially to resist.—Even when disdoveries are made, such as will clearly justify a prosecution, thepriaice of letting in explanatory affidavits -on the part of claimants, for the most part secures an ultimate ac-. quittal, and frustrates the hopes of the captors. " At the best, as every hattom, and every bale of gotxis, is now infallibly claimed by the neutralizing Agents, and every claim, however clear the detec tion of its falsehood may be, is pertinaciously prose cuted, the rare event of - a final condemnation can only,be obtained through the medium of a long con test at law--o-an evil peculiarly unpleasant to the sanguine mind of a sailor. It may be' safely affirtn ed, that one prize taken, as lit former wars, under the colours of an enemy, and 'therefOre promptly condemned and distributed without litigation, would do more towards the encouragement of our Navy titan three prizes of equal value, tardily, and with difficulty secured, as at present, by the detMion of Neutral Impostures., " Almost the only class of captures on which our seamen On now with any safety rely, are those which are founded on the breach of a blockade..., Even those, :however, are rarely . adjudged without ff an ob,tinate litigation in ttia Admiralty, if not 'also in•the Superior Court. But the ordinary value of such prizes is small, and, on the whole, they are so far from making' any amends to our Navy at large for the loss of its legitimate prey in the colonial trade, that they are a very inadequate recompense to the squadrons employed in the blockades for the extra- . ordinary severity of that service. Here also, a war, barren again, is peculiarly produdive of hardships and privations to our gallant defenders. " These discouragenients have been very patiently borne : our loyal and generous tars well know ,the difficulties of their country, and are content to de fend it under every disadvantage that the eyd g i* h eies of the times may impose on them. But if the 'pre sent commerce with the 'hostile colonies be plainly • such as we have a right to interdict, and it the great national considerations before suggested. concur in calling for its prohibition, the-interests of our gallant Officers and seamen may, most reasonably fortify the call. They otight not, without a clear obligatkin of national duty, or a plain and' strong tgeponderimee bf public good r to be" shutbut from their ancient ad. vantages, td hejostled by kwery'nentral in tla chase of their lawful game, and to sit cloken in poverty at' t4e.nekt peace, after Sllttaillitig, during two long wars, the dominion of the sea against three of the wealthiest ofeenunercial • " Far different is the ease wjth the Navy of our enemies: • " I.The'catalegees.of ,evils prodieed,,,tv the same Miseltievous cause might be still further enlarged. " Imightshew in it a powertill inducement to that selfish neutrality by which one, at' least,ortte Continental States has enhanced the common dan- ger of Europe. The vaini-gloryand the popillarity attendant on a Vast,- though, visionary, enlargement of commerce, may naturally have charms for a Mo narch not ambitions of more solid rence.vii: • - " I Might al.sn notice the great diseouragement given to various branches of our own exterior core- , meree: and, above all, might insist On the permanent detriment likely to be sutained by cur .cOrrunercial marine. The forced artificial growth of neutral shipping, both supposititious andreal, will no doubt, shrink back acrain, in a great measure,,at a peace, but will not be entirely lost. In America,• especially, the vast excrescence is daily absorbed into, and enlarges the natural body, which, in various quarters, is peculiarly likely to dis pilaw,' by its extended dimensions, the maritime in terests of England. Where is the political ,providence whiCh ed• that wise measure, the Register. Ad of .Lord Li Verpool ? He justly called the Navigation A& " a noble strain Of commercial policy and one which alone, had fortunately outweighed 'all unr national follies and extravagancies.*" Though rto indiseriminate' admirer of his Lordship's commercial principles,' I tio him the justice to say, that the Mt known by his name was an eSsential'andwell4imed support to the gre it law he justly celebrates ; and the best. preven tative that human ingenuity could have devised of that decay with which our navigation 'was threaten ed by the independency of America: " But vain was this and every other effort to guard our maritime intereSta bylaw; if, by a surren der of our belligerent rights the 'tarrying trade of the globe is to hethrown into the hands of our'ri- Vals ; and a hot-bed made tar the navigation of Arne rica, at the cost of 'the - British Navy.. " In the contemplation, however, of thosenearer and more fatal consequences, the fruitration cf our hostilities against the' commerce and revenue of: France, and the danger 'of 'losing our siTeriority at sea, during this momentous contest, all minor and distant evils lose their terrors. 1 will, therefore, search no further into the extent of this baneful and piolif:c mischief.. " The Ilse, therefore, of neutral bottoms, in the colonial trade, would' soon he foiand 1w our Ene mies to yield them no proteetion. They. would' hoist again their own connriercial,colOurs; and either restore to us all the fair fruits of an unreisted . naval superiority, Or, by sending out convoys fir the pro teetion of their. trade, open to us .again that antieia. • field of offensive war, which we are, sUrc to be victorious. our seamen would be enriched, our ports Would lie eery `largely increaseds and cry Western breeze would Waft into the• Channel, not a neutral sail or. two; to furnish dipl'ornatie squalf; blest, and litigation in the MMiralty, but nnmerous and yalUable prizes, and sometimes entire Fleets merchantmen, with their convoys, taketntmm open Enemies, 'and under hostile' colours.

The sea abounds with adVentnrers, who have rid settled national charaeter, and these men, in general, will naturally flock to his standard. ". Already the injurious influence of this cause in one species of maritime war is very visible. rrotn the days of Elizabeth to the 'present time, mtieh has alWayS been done to'the annoyance of our Commercial Enemies by the enterprize of private ,StiNeCts. Our own ;commerce, at the same time, has deriVed no inconsiderable, though an occidental, proteetion from the' same source, since the hostile Crnizers have been kept in check or taken; and our Merchantmen, when captured, often rescued from the Enemy - by our private Ships of War. But , the, unparalleled license, of the Neutral Flag has so discouraged privateering,that the prataice of it is nearly extinguished. It may be safely at firmed:, that in any war with Spain prior to the last, end of ouriV ice Admiralty ,CoUrts.alone could have produced a longer list of commissions' taken out, not for.arened Merchantmen,' but for efficient Privateers, than all those Judicatures and the 11101Ceurt.,of Admiralty together can, now tolle6lively farnish:rr-. - The (leelitte of this cheap and. useful, though .inte rior species of Marine, is so natural an effili of the great surrender which has been made ofo ar belligerent: rglits, that thu : only,groend.of surprix is. to rind single Catiter - still ' in connuisskni, • Few though they now are, and very.iticonsidevable in force, their can only be influenced by' that excessive sm., tat of adventae which will sometimes prompt men to Play , the most - disadvantageous and ruinous game. 7 / enemy,' on the other hand, abounds, as has been already noticed, in this. irregular species- of force. • Discourse on the condo iti of the Government of cr:at Eritain, in resp;:ci to Neutral Nations, POLICE. MAIKTinIiCkIIGH-STREe.T.---Yesletthy Mr. Charles Berm.. .deg, a Gendeman of respatability in Berkeley , street, Berkefey-square, appeared before the Sitting Magistrate, to answer to a charge of a nuisance pre.- fermi against him byn Surveyor in the . Parish of St. George's, Hanover-square. The nuisance complained of was the building of a clories. arched portico at the Defendant's house, which projeaed three feet eight inches from the level, contrary to the .A& of Parlia- . ment. In sup} of the Prosecution, the SurVeyor and two other.Gentleinen were called, who were of opinion that the building in question wa4 a do3e one, contrary to the it. The Surveyor also stated, that the projeEtion added. to a building of a se cond rate. The evidence on the part of the. procc , cution being • gone through, Mr. ADf..E.V, in an ingetijow meec b, submitted to the Magistrate, that if . any nuisal;c , existed, before the Defendant cotabe convieled, 'kr must be proved in 'evidence, agri.../table to the Aa of Parliament, that he way the owner, iw the bu i lder of the projeation in•question. No such. evidence had been offered, and the Defendant was therefore en titled to .an acquittal. The .Learned , .enonsel. took several other objetilions, and was about to ,call wit nesses to prove that the portico was.an opeii one, and not such as 'wasmeant to be provided against by the Legislature; when the Magistrateintoferea, and stated Ilia opinion, that it was necessary, before he could go farther,. to proVe,iltat the Defendant either the owner or ti.e builder.
