THE FAREWELL
OF THX AMERICAN VOLUNTEER to HIS
WlF*.
T hi trumpet sounds, my country calls,
A hostile band her shores invade ;
I go to brave their cannon balls,
And dye, in Wood, my battle blade.
*O Mary I gehtle and sincere.
Grieve not, I pray, when thus we part!
Wipe from your eye the tender tear,
And banish sorrow from your heart.
For should I coward like, await
The foe's approach in martial pride,
And see him force our farm-house gate,
With Lust and Rapine by his side;
I could not bear the keen rebuke,
Tby screams would speak in that dread hour,
I could not bear thy helpless look
When struggling with their ruffian power.
No! bring my war-horse; I’ll away.
And meet th’ invaders on the strand;
And they shall sorely rue the day
They dat’d upon our coast to land.
O! there will be a gallant host
Of freedom’s sons, array'd in fight j
And I will seek the bloodiest post,
And combat with a giant’s might
But weep not, Mary, if I fall,
Nor heave thy bosom with a sigh;
“ Death is the common lot of all
’Tis for my country I shall die.
And teach our little blooming boy,
That life is nought with slav’ry wed ;
Teach him to yield it up with joy
At freedom’s call, on honour’s bed.,
Tell him ’twas thus our heroes fought i
And Mary, be thou sure to tell
Our little one, that thus he ought
To fight—for thus his father fell

We recommend the perusal of the subjoin
ed address to all who wish to become
acquainted with tbp blessing of French
alliance, and the amelioration produced
by French conquest. We recommend It
t& those who have talked so much about
the old oppression of the continent of Eu
rope, and the advantages derived from
its being subjected to the French. We
recommend it to “ French apologists’* of
every sort ; both those who would em
bargo us f<fr the sake of pleasing Bona
parte ; who wish to see us imitating the
churlish and semi-barbarous seclusion of
the Chinese; who would extinguish the
commercial spirit of this country, which
is the foster parent of the spirit of liber
ty. To all, in short, who wouM wish to
please or gratify Bonaparte In any way,
or by any mem. To such people we beg
leave to introduce thio address; which
is circulated secretly on the continent,
and causes there a very great sensation.

The mournful complaints of the people of
the con'inent of Europe, upon the inter
ruption of their commerce; addressed to
all the Princes of that part oi the world—
January, 1810.
Princes, Fathers rf the People,
Deign to listen to the complaints which
are drawn from us by that general inter
diction which destroys our commerce !
The proofs of their justice and of their high
importance, will show themselves in the
afflicting picture of the condition to which
the people of the continent are at this mo
ment reduced. •
After a trial of some years of a system
of commercial warfare against England,
from which so much was promised, we
may be permitted to examine the result of
this warfare, and inquire if its consequences
have been as successful as its authours pre
dicted.
We see by this iniquity that the conti
nent suffers loses, and becomes impover
ished from day to day, while Great-Bri
tain prospers, increases in riches, and feels
none of these calamities to which we are
subjected, from the shackling fetters that
load us. Yet, more than this! From year
tn year Great-Britain is rendering herself
more independent of the continent; she
opens new channels for her trade abroad,
and finds new resources in her own bosom ;
thus it was too that France never knew
her own internal strength ip wall, nor has

her soil ever worked with so much succada w
as during the period from 17f3 tn 17H, " ,
when, the project of starting her waa pur

her of foreign supplies of grain.
England obtains her grain from Aaseffe
ca, from Barbary, from Sicily, and froth •*
her own soil, the cuitivatton of which is ex
tending and .improving every year; Be
sides, she husbands a great quantity of the
necessaries of life, by prohibiting barley .

enemy, France.
South-America supplies her with hide®*
and North-America with timber. Froth
these countries, too, she obtains iron ahA

India, from Peru, and her own mine®.
Bengal furnishes her with hemp, and she
will soon be enabled to raise all that she

facturers are scarcely affected by it, foras
much, as the influx of her wares Into In-
wants in Ireland, when the marshes of that
In short, it is proved, by the most au
thentick calculations known to all politi
cians of eminence, by the reports of travel
lers, learned and impartial, that commer
cial industry, pubHck revenue and credit
of every sort, not only have not been injured
or lowered in England during the courM
of the late yearly but that they have been
constantly growing; that activity, pros
perity and ease pervade all classes in tftu
country ; and that in consequence, she can
support herself in the actual state of things
for ten years and perhaps longer.
Contrasted with this, what dreadful evils
does the continent suffer! Thb continent
whose harbours are closed, whose ships •*
cannot assist in the interchanges that are
indispensable to the existence of its dif
ferent countries; interchsnges, to which -
it to proven, at this nofoent, mere inland
transportations are not in any degree ade
quate ! The whole social state of this re
gion of the world Is, however, established
•nd founded on these mutual interchanges*
now rendered impracticable; every ceud
try on the continent has wants erowdin*
upon wants, and each one desires to
cure that good which it has not within M
self* by an exchange of Its own produc
tions ; France and Italy by passing offthefr
wines, their oils, their silkX Germa
ny her grain, her hemp, her linens, hffir
timber, her iron and her tallow. Every
one sees the superabundant production of
his country accumulate, rot and perish
where they rose, without the power of pro
curing from abroad the most necessary ar
ticles of life ; .and thus the desire and ex
citement to cultivate the soil are no long
er found in the bosoms of its proprietors.'
Another source of the sufferings of th*
continent to found in the privation of thoeb
articles, which it has been accustomed <b
receive from England, and for want of ,
which much of its Industry is paralyzed ;
such articles as raw and spun cotton, co
louring woods and drugs, with the addttimt
of such of these last as are wanted for medi
cinal purposes. The cootineut is into®-

coal that she consumes, a quantity of pitch,
of tar, of rosin, and of turpentine. Isin
glass site now prepares from every sort
<>f fish, many of which hud never been
thought of as able to furnish any of that
article.
I he silk manufacturers ofEnglHnd have*
learned how to prepare the silk of India or
China so as to fit it for every use, and to
enable her to rely upon these alone for her
wants. The woollen manufacturers work
the British wool with the same success.
As for the export of her productions, we
see that the blockades of the continent in-
England already knows how to dtopensu
with the tallow of Russia ; she supplies its
place not only by substituting the clarified
■al of fish, but still more by the ingenious
management of infl immable gas. She even
has learned how to obtain from the char-
dia and the two Americas inertaan every
year in a prodigious degree.
