I shall now, Sir, take the liberty of di
recling my uttention to some obvervationy,
which fell from a pontieman Liom e Swute
of New-York, (Mr. Gardenicr) whom §am
glad to see in kis place. That 'hon‘ﬂnx:
gentleman has totd us thut the intercourse
with. Great Britain would wot be übindened
by the Northern farmers, ay a commercial
connection with that coumtry afords a‘ vent
for their surplus produce ; und siso, that the
intevest of his constituents essontially de
pended on its renewal. I will vodertake to
convirice that gentleman, that Le ought to
occupy other ground, by shewing xmw
carried on with Great Brituin alone would
leave on the farmers’ hands three fourths of
their surplus produce. A fact not very cons
soling to the farmevsand planters of the U,
States. [Mr. Gardenier rose to correct a
mistatement into which Mr. Newton had falién.
Mr. Gardenier said if Mr. Newiwon had ade
ded the Northern states would not abundon
their commerce with Great Brit«in for Jight
and trivial causes, he wouid be correct.] 1
am willing, Sir, to take thie argument of the
gentleman with this limitation, that the
commercial intercourse with Grest Britain
should not be surrencered or abandoned for
light and trivial causes. 1 have said enough on
the conduct of G. Britaiu towards the United
States, to shew whether their complainty @+
rise from, and whether the acts of th}; .
ernment are founded on light and triv E:-_
ses. The view which 1 shall take of this
subject and the facts connected with it not.
withstanding the explunation, will stil! be the
sagie.~Permit mc, Sir, to express my regret,
t hat arguments on great national subjects, in
stead of being general and comprchensive,
should be narrowed down and confined to lo-
the Howse lefircsentaiivesy vn the Jomie
Regolution, afproving the conduct of the
Executive in relation-is the rofusal’ io pes

cal considerations. It is certainly improper Thus it appears by regular calculations
and impolitick to cut the United States up that Great Britain does not take of cur do
into distvicts aund slips, and to lepislate for mestick produce, in value, \l?n.thimen mil
each division. This chuquered patch<work lions of dollars, and of h&aﬁua not
sor: of legislation comports not with the de- more than two miilions, two and six
sign of this government, nor with the inter- ty thousind dollars. Hence the following
est of this natien. Correct and enlightened ficts are evident, to wit, that if the United
policy inculcates liberal and enlarged views— States were confined in their trade solely to
sacrifices of local and wminor imterests fo the Grear Britain, ick produce to the val
promotion of the geweral good, and parfico- 'ne of thirty odd millions of dolla’s would re
larly this traisme=that the health «nd vigrer main on the hands of farmers and plan
of the members are,derived from the sanity ters for want of a t ; and between thir
and vigour of the hody. My object is to shew ty five and fifty six millions of dollars in for
shat cur trade to Great Britain is far from be- eign produce would remain a dead capital in
jug lucrative, that we are not dependent om the coumtry. | -
ber for our commercial prosperity, snd that - A consequence ::ronﬂy taken into cal
@ trade confined 10 her ports solely for a eulsiion wouid ine resvit from a trade
shrrt space of time, would have a paralising confined to Great "ihLv alone.—~Such is the
cJwt on agrievhwre. [ shall arrive st o of speculasion, that it must be active.

ports to the dominions of Great Britain in
Europe, it muy be observed tbut the tobaceo
is supposed 10 exceed the amount wanted for
their own cogstmption ; that as ithe laws of
Great Brituin do not permit for home couw
sumptiaon the importation of the greater pant
of the articles of foreign mevchandize inA«
merican vessels, those which appear to' have
been shipped from the United States lave
genesally bheenw either cleared for England.
and a market,-or when lnded, wWure-toused
for resexpiortation ; and that four and wheat
Which aré not ‘rcrmuwnt articles of exporta
ton to Great Britnin constituted muore then
two thirds of the value of the provisions ex~
ported to thut country i 1802 and 1603, Al
though the quuntity of cotton cxporwa to
Great Britain is encreasing, and its velve -
mounted, in 1804 to mear six millions two
liundrod thousand dollars ; yzt ‘& total value
of .tho exports to that county! not, in that
year exceed, in anicles both of domestick and
fureign produce, thirteen n .two hun.
dred thousand doMars, vb%- importations
amounted to twenty seven'millions. six hun
dred thoussnd dolars, making a balatce in
favour of Great Britain of fourteen millions
two hundred thousand dollars. As this bal
ance must necessarily be hgltd out of the pro
ceeds of the exports of the United States to
other countries, it follows that on the value of
those exports depends the ability to pay for
British mpanufuctures to that €xtent ; and that
‘the quantity imported for home consumption
or re-gxportation must be affected :’y every
obstruction to the commerce of the U. States
with other countries.” ¥ ‘
In the year 1803, the value of the exports
of tne United States in domestick produce to
all parts of the world amounted to more than
forty two millions of doMarse=and in 1807 10
the value of forty-nine millions of dollars.
The exports of the United States to all
parts of the world in hn‘g: produce, in
1804, amounted in value to thirty-six millions
of dollars.
The following extract is from & report of thé
Secretary of the Treasury tothe House
Representatives in 1806-—it Wil .suppoft my-

Every man who considers the sitnation of this

Great Britain and France is of a character, ,
that has no parallel in the history of the
