The United Sme- had difficulties with
Great Britain, during the'administration
of Gen. Washington, as well as that of Mr.
,]eﬀerson. The orders of Nov. 1793 were
clamored against as loudly in this country,
as those of 1807. But there was found to
be no serious difficulty in settling the dis
putes of that period, for one plain reason
—the dministration were eeriomly dispos
ed to stille them. Now, instead of being
settled, they grow constan'sily more perplex
ing, and embarrassing ; and our commerce,
and, of cobrse, our revenue, are well nigh
snnihilated: and as plain a renson may be
given for the predicament we are now in,
and that is—Neither Mr. Yeﬀ'ermt nor
Air. Mew:, have eineerely desired to lie
on good term with Great Britain
the evils and embarrassments which our
commerce and our country, have experi
enced for some years past.
But Mr. ]eﬀcrson refused it; and to this
step, may probably be ascribed, almost all
ceeded twenty-six millians of dollars. lai
1808 they are reduced to a little more than!
ten mit/inns, making a'falling oﬂ' of a little
more than. 13 millionsss of dolllrs. This as
tonishing'ssct is'tobe accounted for by the
administratio'n, or its tricnds. And the ans
ver to the enquiry,-why is it so Z—will be ?
found in Mr. ]esserson's wish to embroil this
chuntry with Great Britain, and his ardent
attachment to France; which produced the
destructive ache-me of cal-"goes and non
t'nterc'ourse. Had he been sincerely dis
posed io have been on good terms with G.
Britain, it was abundantly in his power.
