the orders of the Brit& Government alluded to contained the

known law of Nations, there would have been no oCcaGon for
any of them, nor could they have varied from each other, In the
manner In which they do fo vary. I Ilia/1 now, raid he, proceed
to Chew that the decifions are contrary to the agreement bemeen
the two Governments on this fubjeet. By the order of Novantett
1793, Come hundred American VtiTel4 were carried into port, and
condeinned Thole ftisures were fubmitted to Como:Wooer*,
who condemned them, and awarded compenfations, which Great
Britain has honourably paid. It is impoifibie not to confider what
palled on that oecallon; but as an adjuftment of the prefent
and until the tare of the. ESC:, not one American veilel en-
gaged in this commerce had been condemned, although frequently
met with by the Beth()) cruisers. In Robinfon's Reports, page
368, it Is clearly ellablithed by the Learned Judge of the Adm-
iralty, that an American has a right to Import the produce of an
enemy's colony into the United States, and to fend it afterwards
for the general commerce of Europe ; and that the landing the
goods in the United States, and paving the duties, Mould preclude
all further queftinn upon the voyage.
Lord Havekeibury afterwards, in a communication of the ttth
of Amil,ceprefsly Rated the fame thing that the produce of the
Colonies might legally be imported into the United States, and
from thence to the Mather Country : and thus the produce of
the Colonies and manufaclures of the mother country might find
their way to each other by this circuitous route. He complains.
that after this utulerflanding between the two countries, that this
opinion Mould be departed from In the cafe of the Effez, which
fcrved as a fignal for the &kith cruisers, and that fince that time
above fifty American Chips, engaged In this commerce, have been
retried into Mei& ports, and are detained. He c•mplaim, that
Britain gave no Intimation of an intuition to change her conduft
on thefe points. He adds, that he makes this communicat inn in
hopes of a friendly adjultment, not only on this futitet , bet air° on
he other, of impreffing American feamen, which he admits is a
matter of peculiar delicacy, by reafon of the filidierity of pukes
and manners, and particularly from the identity of language with
tbe.twti ration& (Signed) ' lamas mon aoa.
