The declared ohja6.l of the Orders in`Cotincil is, " to retort upon the enemy those Mischiefs which he intended to infliEt Upon the trade and commerce of 'these kingdoms ;" to place his staple commodi= ties'and Manufaatires, under the same interdict, as' he haS placed thoSe of Great Britain by his decrees. Bat by these licenses we give them both circulation. and value, and render our Orders imCounCil gether abortive. When we coMpare our first Oich-r ie Council, didated in the just Spirit of retaliat rn, and supported by the unanswerable arguments of necessity,and self-defence, with our second Order in council, bartering those principles for a p:a;try con sideration of pounds, shillings, and pence ;• and`cal , culating, with sordid care, how t•iitt.ch yetaliatikin and self-defence we could atibrd to commute for so mach money, we gannet but recal to our minds, and apply to his :Majesty's Councils, the exclaims, (ion of Arastes, when his vrinciples gave way to the chat ms of his fair captive Panthea. 01. Cyrus; I feel that I have two souls within ine; . ore that inclines me to good, the other to evil ; the further predominates when you are preSent, the latter when . • you are absent. Two very 'different spirits; indeed predominated in the'Cabioet, when these two Or ders in Council were issued; bat who was present,, or who!owas absent, as .either` predomieated, wt pre- Imo not to conjed ore. The American Govern- . merit justly; charatlerized the second Order in Court cil, which we endeavoured to persuade them to:con sider as a favour, and :as a modification of the first, as adding.insult to injury. Indeed; the only rea•- sonable ground of complaint,.that AmeriCa can urge .. against the British Government, is founded Upon this second Order 'of Council, aed those licenses of which it: was the parent: While me regulated our own condu&, by the principles of necessity and self-defence, 'nn which the first Order in Council was founded, and by which alone so strong an inter- • ference with the rights of neuttals could be justitiad, Anteric4 felt and submitted 10 those pammodrit cori sidzfrations.; but when we began-to trade with the enemy by means of licenses, she rationally conclud ed that we had used necessity and self-defence as ,Jam pleas; as a mere pretext tor monopolizing to oursel „es all the advantages to be derived two corn mercial intercourse with .the powers with whom we were at war. B> a firm and rigid adherenee . to the spirit of our first Oder in. Council; we 'should probably have ca: Tied our, point ; but the experiment never had a fair trial. By this system of ) licenses, we have re lieYed the enemy froin all the pressure we intended to oceasibri ;• we have promoted the export of his staple commodities and. manuta6tures ; and we have , supplied him with all those articles of the first neces sity, the want of which alone couli,l induce nun to rescind his decrees, and return to that fair evstem of-reciprocity, which is fhe true basis nt,commercial intercOurse. rlt :was expeaed in Russia, that, in consequence of 'the confisestions•that took place in her ports last year, no more British dieenses to trade to them would be granted; anti, in this iierstrasion, the Russian, Government, - early in the spinig of the present year, and actually prepared licenser: permit ting the importation of British manufactures and colonial produce, in exchange ;for their staple COM modifies.; when new British licenses Appeared, pet nutting the importation , of Russian commodities, without any stipulation in 'return, and rendered the intended concessions on the part of Bussia unneces• sary. 41 the mere apprehension of out retaliatory system prochice.d.this effed in Russia, it May fairly be concluded, .that a rigid 'adherence to it, .wotild• prodnpe a similar effect in France : hyt while his Majesty's MiniSters, by a timid and wavering po-- licy, have abandoned the object of their Orders in Council, Bnooaparte, hy. a firM and' resolwe po licy, has attained the objea of his decrees, the ex clusion of British manulattures , and produce from the Continent of Eerope ; and diSastrous. in .the extreme has . the result been, to this, country, as appear 6 from the lollowinr; statement of our ,recent losses, which may fairly btu traced to this Source. , . 13riiish property confiscated in the ports of the enemy . .. .. - ' 1.. 11,000,000 Depreciation in the value of .

" Another consideration, of a very different na ture from those' which have been urged, ought to induce his Majesty's Ministets*to abandonllns sys tern of licenses ; that it nt the vely'rpot of the integrity and morality of the commtrcial Part of „ the comintinity. .e.very license granted for a foreign vessel to . proceed from this country to an enemy's port,. is a license granted to 'commit forgery; per, jury, and bribery ; nay, 'it imposes s alt obligat;on upon the parties to whom It is granted to coonnit all these crimes; for without them the trade cannot be carded on. The parties commence thzir opera tions by procuring what are called Simulated ''pa pers ; or papers, fahricated • here, polpot Ong to be 'clearances :from some 'foreign port, whence the vessel might be adtumitted into the port to wluch -she is hound. • "To make these papers complete, all the print• ed forms of f&teign clearances and certificates; toge ther with the' seels and signatures of the' fOreign Custom House Officers and Consuls, are forged ; and to such happy per fe6tion : have' we brought this art, that it is impbAible to distinguish the 'tiatitioirs' from the real documents. When the vessel arrives at the port of her destination, the seen° of perjury opens ; for the master, and frequently both the master and the crew, must swear that tire vessel ac tually came from the port, at which her simulated papers are dated. Bribery follows of course ; both to pity poor wretches who perjure thertiselves iii the service of their etnyleyets, and to lull the vip - lance of the foreign Custom-House Officers. Poli limns may, perhaps, consider all these ',rakes agai'nst the enemy, as perfectly ..justifiable; as no thing more than a harmless ruse de guerre. With out 'slopping "to analyse this Machiavelian distinc tion, we shall shew that the practice of this black Ca talogue of trinres is not confined to the enemy ; for such is the force of habit, that men who have once accustomed themselves to dezt in deceit, soon use it iodtscriminately upon friends or foes, as prompted by the love of gain ; and thus the poisoned chalice is returned to our own lips. A melancholy instance of this troth is furnished by an advertisement which lztely appeared in the public papeis, offering a te. ward of one hundred ponds for the anprehension of lately of Portland-place, mer cnant, against whpm -a bill of indictment was found bY'llie Grand Jitiy, at the late Seisions held et dread 13.eiley, for haviog fals-ely fabriened and forged a letter, purporting to have been written eta him your Amsterdam, tor the - purpose of ieducieg the ene.krwriters to pay a total loss on a policy at insiirence effected by him, and which loss the under.' writers accoldingly.! Here we see Ott fatal effects..ot making men familiar With criines, and how soon they proceed from one,leegth to another. Mr. we are told, was a merchant of•consi derable eminence, and mo.it respectable character ; a man of liberal education, ,and polished manners, who mixed in the first circles of this Mettopohi, and who in all. probability .woold neer have been led into the perpetration of , this offence, had not fabrication and .forgery become familiar to him, from his being I trgely.conce`ine& in this trade to the pOrts of the enemy, under . licenset. In a book of high nut hority, we read of a set of men, great pretenders to more than ordinary sanotity; who could strain at a gnat, btit awallow a camel ; and we shall think this race not yet extinct, if, after 'the picture we have drawb, any man who wishes to pass for pious, and ,conticientious continue to give this trade his sanction. ' • - ‘,‘ The underwriters have it in their -power at once to abeltsb.this perniciims traffic; for if it could not be insured, it could not be cairied . on. The losses:, they' have _lately sustained by confiseatiorts abread., and, f raud at, home, must. survly have taught them, that the best foundations of their prosperity are the protection of the ,British ,flag; and the in• tegrity of tho , ,e with whom they deal. Let them then resolve no longer to insure these foreign ves sels, trading under licenses to, the ports of. the enemy: By deterMination, the!) , will avoid the reeurren4:e Of future conli:fottions ; an.l the just ie tribittioo of suifering themselvei by those arts; to the practice of Mitch upon otheis they stake them- . solves pirties, while they insure this trade, boillra resolutLen dictated , by every consideration,' coin . - Inerei,tl,,p,olitic , ll; or moral; and, both for their own sakes, and for. that of the .conntly, we hem . - illy recom.nend it to their adoption."
