WII E N the sloop George, Capt. Mayne, mentioned in
our last to have arrived from the Weft-Indies, left St.
Euftatius, it was confidently asserted, that an immense num
ber of Dutch merchant vessels had been taken in the European
Seas, and carried into British ports; and that there were se
veral British men of war in the mouth of the Texel.
In all probability, the principal feene of Dutch distress will
be in the East-Indies. The spice trade which they have so
long engrossed, the wealth of their settlements, and the
contemptible state of their military establishments in that
quarter, give a fair and inviting opportunity of, punching
them for their folly, perfidy, and ingratitude ; and of avenging
the cruel tortures their ancestors exercised on our unfortu
nate countrymen at Amboyna.
It is greatly to be regretted, that a diferimihation cannot
be made in favour of the City of Rotterdam, and some
other parts of the United Netherlands, which have been ever
distinguished by their attachment to the British nation. It
appears more than probable that the present unlooked for vi
gorous measures on the Dart of Britain, in commencing hos
tilities, will occasion a ferment in the Republick, not known
since the days of De Wit. If the leaders of the French party,
who have involved their country in its present difficulties,
meet with a fate similar to his, it will be nothing more than
their demerits entitle them to.
