How often have we been told the frightful
meluncholy story thut the Biitish would iin
port all their cotton from the Egst Indies, in
terdicting the importation of ours iuio Eng
land, and thergby cause ours 10 ror wmpon our
Aands. Have they dong it }—ewe dte bold
to assert thay dare not ! Should the impors
tution of our gotton be interdicted by the
British Calginet, ber ruip would be inevitable,
aud prove America’s greatest blessing and
prosperity. .Aa interdiction of thie impottation |
of American catton, would destroy thé coun
try trade (as at is -termed) carried on by the -
English from Surat to C.nton, The sale of
this cotion at Canten, gives the means of
loading: bagk to Eaglaad, the East India -
Company’s ships with téa, nankeens, &c. ko
The Comnany .is dnable tg. reise sufficient
funds in specie (dotiars) to purchgse cargoes
for their returnipg ships. If such an inter
diction should therefore be passed, or their .
€ tton be shipped dircet from-Suratto Engs |
daad, instead of Canton~'he American lndis ‘
ships would take the. piage of those of the l
English to .Canton, ‘and instead of American *
vessels carrying nothing but specie doliars, to J
yaqcm gargoes, they would be loaded with
can cotton. Owur merchants-in sucha 1
case, would be the cARRIRRS and SUPPLIRRS
of all the continent of Europe, with ¥zas,
FANRBENS,&c. &c. Hence the annihilation
of the British Indiag Company would. follow,
and their bankruptey (for they owe en im
mense debt) in all probability, would produce
the badkruptey of the British nation. .
But o pursue this subject a little farther—
Acmit the fact, that Syrat grows and exports
suflicient cotten to supp'y the Canton market
as heérctofore, and Great Britain also ; (why
bave ot the’ Engl’uh nation discovered this
before). What then would be the true polis

interdict the dmportation of English manu-
