Daily do the evidences of British peril
dy multiply around MS. Every arrival brings
with II news corroborative ofthe determin
alton OF that devoted country to raise its
arm against every country, and provoke
every country to raise their arms against
IT. Months ago we suggested the idea that
britain, driven by its own injustice from
the fair commerce and alliance ofciviized
nations, would become the pluudercr of
all nations, save the Barbarv powers, with
whom, having common interest, they
would make common cause. We have
no wish non to note her tyranny and des-
potic injustice, which has known no limit
but that which iInbecility has presented.
Our present business is briefly to connect a
few facts, 20 shew the grounds upon which
we have come to the conclusion, that 7var

blessings ofpeace, and anxious TO preserve
them, Instructions were sent to our minis
ter at London to negotiate upon this point
also. Upon one frivolous pretence or ~
ther, the question was evaded, and osteygi-
blg to shew their disposition for peace. bur
really to gain time, they determined 10
send special envoy. Much time was fool
ed away before the appointment was made,
ard still more before he was suffered 20 de-
part. lie was then called back, and dcIav-
ed again. All this was gaining time, and
Great Britain, perhdiously protesting peace
was taking measures for our destruction.
She smilingly presented golden chaljce.
but the liquor therein was deadly.
On the 18th of October, she issued a
proclamation, represented rs an apology to
this country, but which, for Injustice and
bitter enmity, has no parallel. n insists
upon tho right search and Of imDressment.
