Nothing more clearly proves greatness of rhind in

We are afTured by out frilh correspondent, that the
Right Honourable William Pitt, after taking so much
pains to eftablilh the footer of the East-India Compa
ny, has determined to reduce their commerce with a
view to equalize the trade of the two lifter kingdoms.
Factories are to be established at different ports'in Ire
land, for the purpose of carrying on a direct inter
course with the East-Indies, and of establishing a fit
and proper exchange of Afiatick commodities with
this country, thereby effectually preventing the smug
gling now carried on by our homeward bound India
men. Extraordinary as this may appear, we can as
sure our readers that the measure is resolved on, 2nd
as soon as the resolutions shall have paired the House
of Commons, will certainly be carried into executi
on. For this advantage Ireland may thank the p G
triotick Mr. Corry. 1

finally adjusted this session.

Memorials, couched in very strong and Spirited
terms, are come over to government, through the
hands of the governor general, from the planters in
the Leeward Islands, complaining of the great injury
they sustain till a proper commercial interedurfe on
solid grounds is established between Great-Britain and
America. She articles of lumber and ftaves are ex
ceedingly scarce, and of consequence at very higli
prices, while the means of obtaining them is not only
difficult, but also very uncertain, while the French
islands, from their intercourse and friendly correspon
dence with the United States, are flourishing in a very
great degree. The wisdom of government is prayed
to be exerted to remove these obftacfes to the prospe
rity of all the British Settlements.
A letter from the Hague, dated February 26, fays,
“ the preparations making by the Republick are great
er and more vigorous than ever. As great doubts are
exiling that the much wished for accommodation with
the Emperor will not be effected, the demands of the
Court of Vienna being too exorbitant for their High
Mightinesses to comply with."
I he Congress have appointed four different Ame
rican gentlemen to join Dr. Franklin and Mr. Adams,
as commissioners to Great-Britain to form a treaty of
commerce between the two countries; one of these
gentlemen is said to be already arrived in England, and
means to make, tire tour of Ireland, as well as Scot
land, prior to Opening their cornmiffion in London.
