WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 3.

. .

Tut French official accounts, of the batiks of
Ocana, and Alba del Torino, we are under the

necessity of defkrring, in consequence of the
gireat length, of the interesting doeismdats from
of which, we have given the whole, of
what i. supposed to have reached this country.
We lament to say, that in perusing this impor-
tant correspondence, we can discover no appear.
auce of that mutual disposition to conciliatory
measures, which must obviously precede, a sincere
negociation. In the present agitated state of Eu.
rope, cordiality between Great. Britain wad Anse.
rica, is so obviously a reciprocal interest, that the
continuance of the misunderstanding, wgch now
assumes a very serious aspect, cannot but elcite,
general astonishment. There is, however, much
roans, as we think, for hope. T 0 MS) it 4P,61016
: -o.racticable, to carry into effect, the CPll4lOllk
. •••torn of commercial exclusion, if the veisek
. I.aerica, have frieadly4eess, to the ports de
the CJltinent ; for, British goods, would ion,ilß:
14 find their way through the medium of Atm*
can buttoins. To suppose that America will pre7
fer alliance, otft•nsive an:l defensive, with France,
to Peace with Great Britain, appears wholly im.
probable. War with Great Britain, would pro.
elude Aaterica from all European intercourse
the numerous cruizers of the British Navy, would
- effectually interrupt her commerce, and thus re-
duce America W a mere predatory State. But if
America, must, in making PeaCe with either of 11
the Belligerents, choose, between war with
France, or %silk England, there cannot, we appre-
hend, be much doubt on the question. The rage
. of France against America, could only operate,
by the exclusion of her commerce—fur, against
the towns and harbours on her extensive coasts,
the efforts of France would be absolutely irn.po
tent. Even the wanton insult, and incomprclion.
sible absurdity of our Ministers, in their copduct
towards America, cannot, we think, force her
into war With Great Britain.
The interests of the two fOuntries, are so in-
dissolubly linked together, that we conceive Arne-
Tin, will, either resume the " accustomed relu.
tint" of Peace with t ngland, or, wisely recur,
to the rigorous enforcement of the principle of
Illoss.latercauras—satil the ru-cstablishment of
Peace la Europa.

_

We know of no production necessary to
human existence, and even comfort, which the
various soil of America cannot produce.—The
only plants conducive to luxury which havc,
tiot yet been cultivated in North America us,
the Vine, the Mulberry tree, and the Sugar-him.
That the climate of some parts of that vast Colik:
nent,lwill produce Vines, is noLt doubted—and the
project in the reign of JAMES I. fur supplying Fug.'
Lind, end eventually Europe, with Silk from Geer.
gia,is well known. The climate,which prodncesCut.
ton, is well adapted to the growth of the Meiber.:
ry ; and, although the prOject was abandoned,
the povet of produciag silk iu Georgia, has
