to Republican Institutions, for the ,v;sa
par'5c, yet determined measures, by which
{ extensive anl fertile territory of Lou
'a"a' has been attached To the Union.
We understand, that NJ. Harvie, the
Presidents secretary, is to Nc the bearer
o. tne dispatches. sc. to France, concerning
Toe Louisiana treaty and that nc is to de-
Part IN lew days. (.4urOra.)
me I5'7tsh Treaty.. readers gene
Taly, We presume, know that all the arti-
cIes oil the British treaty from the llthto
the end expired some time since b, limit
alton and that the first ten articles only are
now IA force. The articles which have
expired, related almost exclusively to the
com nerc'al concerns of both nations, of
course The interest of the two countries,
now Carrying on more extended com
merce than any other nations OF the ~ Ord,
demand that the stpulat.ons for mutual
benefit which hNd become null by Iinija-
tiol' should either BE- modified, or wholly
renewed by a second convention Tor that
purpose n be entered into.
The expiration OF the articles relating
10 our commerce was an event % no small
Importance to this country, placed now in
circumstances so much more prosperous
and stable than when the treaty itself was
unfortunately entered into in l794--in-
deed the strenuous opposers Of jays trea-
" have now much Cause TO Celicitate them
selves and the country that articles so ia
furious TO their interests and degrading to
ihc digni'y Of the powerful and independ-
en-. people of the United States, NO longer
occupy portion OF our statute book for a.
ny other purpose thaa as q monument Of
iorner weakness and cautionAry lesson
for future statesmen.
On reference to the treaty, the reader
will find among the articles which have
exlirsd, restrictions on the commerce. Of
this cou3try, at all times burthensome,
bit hich in ali future conventions could
no, - admitted 10 forN 4 par, consistent
with ;lstce To ourselves aqd the dictates
of sonnd policy. II appears that Mr.. Mon.
roe our minister TO England, some time
agp commenced nerociitions with the nj
nistry Of s.. J,ms,'s, on the subject Of
the CT nm-rcal re- rulations of both nations,
and thc he has been strenuous in his CT
forts II procure an acknowledgment by
treaty Of rights and privileges withheld
under the articles which have expired,
more especially with regard to our trade
with the West Indies. We presume that
the interesting questions which have ari-
sen under our situation as a neutral nation,
have also formed part of the discussions.
However from what we can collect from
the English prints the British ministry are
very ayerse 10 granting what has been de-
manded as our right, andi we believe those
prints, the endeavours 10 place our COM
merce on as solid foundation As can ex-
let between nations is considered rs very
unbecoming and unchari,able al a time
when Britain is 80 much embarrassed.
The subieG of negotiations, commenced
nv Nr. Monroe is likely to be a very inte-
resting one to this country.
