THE bill "for regulating the clearance OF
armed merchant vessels" lately passed
by the House If. Representatives, AID
no1u before the Senate, has become an
object ct serious CONCERN, particularly
-forhe mercantile Interest pf this coun.
,ry. On ,his secoun, we think, we cans
no, err IA laying before our readers the
observations OF aa excellent, writer on
tina, subject 'eopi. d from the (Fiiladel-
rh,a) " Political Cesnsrcial Registers"
of The 18th ioaant. n
In a country like ours, where the gene.
raj wcifsce is intiraRtr,v connected with
that of tAs mercantile part of the coramu-
ni,,; every measure which sGecn the In:
terests of commrrce. deserves the public
attention. The bill "for regulating the
clearance of armed merchant vessels, !"
which lately passed the House Of Repre-
..enlaiives, aud is now before The Senate,
has not therefore excited the fears OF these
only whom j. will more Immediately at.
feet, but has been eensidered as d subject
of general inn or,ance. Its phraseoiogy,
which subjects to the punishment OF I'M.

any depreciation, outrage. or unlawful az.
