LETTER I.

Mn.- EDITOR,
The. attention of the public is at present occu-
pied by so many and such important occurrem.ds,
both foreign and dmnestic, that the .o.ithject upon
which 1 propose to address you, 6(110 itsriol.its—
ly connected with.the vital iincrests ot this co,:u-
tryk has hitherto not excited that'dcgree of no-
tice to whickit is soweli entitled. It i$ our mis.
fortune ti) live in•an age in which theoretied
nottionund speculative experiments have beefs
pushed to such an extent, that almost all the
knowledge'derived from practice and experiew.:*
bi 4 become the subject either of ridicule or invec-
tive.

The lonia has certainly made Jess progress in
.t country than it has upon the
,continent., but
it will require the, constant exercise of the, "quiet
goodsense," which is the characteristic of Eaglish•
men, to preserve us' front the effects of its influcice,
One of the subjects upon which this new system of
scriticing present good, in the hope of obtaining.
-spectilstivo Hdrantage, has. been :reconntifnided
with considerable, vehemence and ability, i4'
of all others upon which I should think the OCQ•
pie' of this country the least' likely to be misled,
when 'apprised of its evil and dangerous tentlency :
I mean those principles- of maritime policy to k
which we have hitherto adhered with so much
credit and advantage. The most strenuous efforts
have hean'inade, and are now making, to incou •
rage hip-building in the East Indies ; to admit
the ships.built there to the'benetit of .13ritlsb 're- ,
gistry, and to give them all tile advantages of Bri-
tish 'milli ships. The introduction of this den. ,
gereus rivalry has been Fecinumended pertly upott
the ground of necessity, from the alleged seatciry
of oak timber, and pertly upon plausible but daltx-
sir e reasoning.

With respect to thelformer- ground, I will a&
. think I shall '
Vert to it in another. letter ;
be able to *stew that it is unfounded in fact. • At
present, I shall confine• myself to the general pa.
liqv..fif the measure, That the power (thrl .extelf.
sive foreign -ponessiona Great Britain have been
acquired by her twritiroe stiperiority, and that the
on
maintenance of that power, and the
preservati
qicnd ipou the continuance'
of those. possessions, d
of that maritime super rity, . are propositions
which Ihelieve few will ioill deny. Weed, they ,•1•4

building has arrived in England, the extent to,
'which it has been carried, or to dwell upon the
respectability or upon the numbers of the persons
employed in al! the various branches of that im-
portant manufacture. .
Leaving, for a moment, the great point of nati- •
onal interest out Of the question, Jet me ask,'
' with What semblance of justice can Government
be'required to consign this great, and useful, and
meritorious body, to indigence, or to 'compel them.
to direct their capital end talents to other bratiche:,
of trade, or, .to what is . worse, to„seek for tin-
ploynieut in foreign countries?
It nai been the invariable maxim of the Legis.
!attire to atfOrd every possible encouragement attil
protection to our artizans and manufacturers.-;.;-.

case of shipwrights ? why ;re the) to be
.singli.:ll,

fageinOt whlch`is extended to everT other class ui
mechanics,? They arc indeed told, I .think in-
sultingly told, that if this newt/ system he adepteU

spect of having it preceded 'by. ft"' protracted, trd

terms, the comfort:which the eollSidailte tiVTMO-
klice of these new 'projectors- has kith!-;r:l ttt'en►to

it' not uptin the private interests of. indivitittaf..,
however numerous, respectable aad tnettd,
xvish toargue this case, it. is upOn the public inte-
ISES of the country, that 1 tound in objection t'ai
this daring innovation.
The ship•builders of Great Britain, and the vii-
rious branches connected ‘vitit them, do not riot-
ploy their capital, their talents, and their ittdut- •
try, for-their own exclttiv'e benefit, the nation •
partieipates, largely participates in their profits ;
,they contribute their full proportion of the inti

LOPr D N,

WEDNESDAY, wr,tuctr 17, 1813.

Hamburgh papers to the 3d instant, and Paris
journals to the 13th, reached town last night.—
We are afraid, front the contents of the former,
that the French actually returned to Ilaanburgh,
after being driven out, and that they remained
there on the, Ist of March, at whiph period Sr.
Ott, the Cominandant, had received instrtictions
from_ Lit, RISTOti, Who cOlninamk. at Magdeburg,
to form.a Military Commission, to try those con-
cerned in, the late disturbances, or, in other words,

(aeCording to: the usual course of:French j7.lsOce,)
to put tham to death. We deep!y regret that any
of the,liatriotie Citizent'of namhurgh should thus
sutler toran honest Inanifestation of their fed-
, .
lugs ; but, we' trust, their oppressors would not
long haye the rna'stery. it is evident, from the
statements in the Hamburgh :paiiers, which were
thei:i,puhlished .tincier'ilrench cOntrotil, that the
11Lussian3 were advancing, and the attempts made
to'distreditthe rumours, at they are Called, of
the
_Russian successes, only SCEYe to prove the
texr9re ,of the. French„ whilst they were nizing
habitants of, Ifaminirgh.

Some doubt is entertained whether the Rus-
sians actually obtained possession of Berlin on
the 24th nit ; but they mast have been very near
that capital about that period, and in the occu-
pation of it very soon afterwards.
By accounts from Amsterdam to the 12th inst.
we learn, that there lnid been some fresh disturb-
ance's in Ifolland, in consequence of the rigorous
execution of the Conscription Laws. Two per
who were Accused as the feaders'on theocea-,
sion were executed. The Paris Papers are desti-
tute of news.

It is said that the Crown Prince of SWEDEN
will land in Pomerania with ii considerable force,
and proceed to Hanover to rouse the people to
arms, and to restore the.legitimate government.

The Gazette, of last night contains a dispatch
from Lord' OAVICAII'r, the news in which we
have already noticed ; and'also the dispatch from
the Marquis of 'WELLINGTON; which we gave
from the Lisbon Papers..

Painful as our task has been in the necessity of
sublnitting the Documents respecting the unfor-
tunate business relative to the •Princess of IV.its's
to 0.,r Headers, we feel some alleviation in this

dii,y ;it present in, the opportunity.ot pre-

we should ha ve iii,,erted'

as well as: indeedthe liOpe that., we.sbould b able
to give it entirely at length. One Iteaders
