THE 1.75113 A L 390 WILL BE RAISEp

For some weeks pas( immense speculation'; have
beetvinade in articles-u%nally exported
taimand her dependencies, 'to Spain and Pi)i-tvgalt,
and their dependencies, on a filir presuMption that
the Embargo will be raised on the meeting of COn-
' gress. 'This spirit of. speculation has been increased,
from the consoling language of the public papers print-
ed under the eye of our Admioistratibn, bolding up the.
idea that all
,was going•on between the Govern;
ments•of Great Britain and hat of the United States;
As yet, we have seen nothing to discourage the spe-
culations here' spoken of, Umber the-arrival of the
Hope giveS' no hopes of either England* France re-.
moving. their Decree s against neritrals.- Even if
,th&
'Hope had, brought positive ne‘;‘,l of !tie rescinding of
the British Orders in Council, which ‘vas t' few days
since expeas-d, our situation relative‘to the raising
of the Embargo would net, in our good opinion,
have been altered ; for 'though the kosi.l4i (-). its -
`being raised would certainly have been mole atypa=
rent, in reality it would. make no dirferenee as to the ,
propriety of. raising the Embargo ; for,- suppQse the
British Orders removed, we could' send no lre:oieis
to France, Holland, Italy, or the Bahic, cr any
place under the dot-nit-ration' of,France. it is, there-
fore,
,of no consequence to us xit hether the Qiders
in. Council be rescinded. or not.
If the Embargo is raised, it will be because the
first cause of laving it is removed,-and' because the
second cause never will be , removed: To be more
explicit.; the Embargo was laid, first, ,to get liOrsie
the property that was abroad. This objet has been as
far accoMplished -as it ever will be. The property
still abroad has been unwarrantably laid bold of by
BUONAPARTE and ,Co. ,and there remains no hope Of
recovering it. , The first object of the. Embargo is
then accomplished, • The second reason f(or laying
the Embargo, was, to humble the Belligerents, or to
starve them intocomplianee. As vice find, from ten
months' experience, that they tie% er can be starved
or humbled, then of course this reason for thci
bargo also-fails. Neither France nor England will be
the first in 'removing their Decrees. What then is '
more reasonable than to suppose that 'the Lo:bargo
will be r iised very soon after-the meeting of Con-
gress ? For our parts, we are astonished that any
man of common sense can believelor a moment
that the 'Embargp'will continue. •

IBesides 'the above, -there are numerous other reit-
, sons for raising the Embargo; one of which is, that
the measure is a very unpopular one, as has been
evinced,by the late eledions. It,may be said with
truth, that if, at the time, it was supposed that the
i voting for a democrat would be the cause of con-
tinning the Embargo, there would not have been a
single Democratic Candidate returned in 'a single
1 town in the,Union—so unpopular is the Embargo.
To close : our Cabinet nut 'lcing unchangeable,
will, and m UST raise the Embargo. Therefore the
i . purchaie of produce, the loading of ships, and the
} shipping of seamen, may go on without interruption.

It has lately been discovered that nearly half of
the.raw hemp and flax carried to :he mills for beat-
ing and dressing; and which is left to rot, under the
name of refuse, may, on being cleared of the
strawy particles, become as soft and as-useful for
making,paper as the most valuable part of the plant..
It can, besides, by .a chemical process well known
to the bleachers, be made as white as cambric. The
bine or straw of hops, which the planters generally
throw away, contains an excellent hemp for making
cloth, canvas, ropeS, &c. and also the best materials
for tnakinc, paper. "

On Saturday, as the turncock was filming on the
water inßruton-street,' an eel, three feet long, and
nearly as thick as a man's arni, stopped up the plug,_
which the man extricated with an iron hook. Im-
mediately after another of the same size came out
alive.
