EMBARGO.

Mr.. Iioernore said he held IN his hand
several petitions from inhabitants of the
state of Massachusetts, signed by between
Aand 5000 persons praying Tor a repeal Of
the embargo laws.
One Of the petitions (ffrom Newburvport1
was read.
In this petition the following sentence
was twice read, by desire CT one Of the
members
Your memoriaiists would further re-
present to your honorable body that they
have Witnessed with great surprize and a..
larm a systematic attealpt among the enc
mics Of the people to excite a belief that
ollr nation has it in its power only ci'o;ce
q ecils thar aa embargo, or war with Great
Britain is our Only alternative; an opinion
which appears 70 your memorialists wholly
. devoid OF foundation. Whatever INJURIES
the u States NAV have sustained from that
power, we cannot conceive that WAL with
her Woui,, be either necessary or Just, whist

troversy and especially when we view lie4,
DIS almost aiOiie Il2liltiliiiltS ~ COlitESt, Oh

rights and liberties OF the civilised world. y
Mr.. L;permoye SAIL as the other petitions
were precisely similar, he moved that their
reading be dispensed with, and that they be
referred to the committee of the whole to
whom several resolutions On the sui ct have
been referred.
The Speaker proceeding to pu. the ques-
ton on reference,
Mr.. d. z. Williams said, as he under
stood the same sentiments were repeated ia
all, and as there We're sentiments expressed
ia the first which he could not underst and,
he called for the reading Of another Of
them.
Mr.. Livermorc ssid he had no objec-
ton.
Another Of the petitions was then read
and they were all referred, without opposi-
ton, to the committee to whoms several re-
solutions on the same subject have been re-
ferred.
Mr.. Lipermore moved that the petitions !
be printed-Neg atised, II only sising in /,

MILAN, 2Ski Nov. 1sa7.
SIR,
The execution of the measures taken
against the Englis., commerce has frequent
w caused reclanations on your part. The
intention of his majesty without doubt, is,
that every particular abuse HAY be repress-
ed but the federal government cannot
make any complaint against the measures
themselves, and while the United States
allow that their vessels may be visited by
England, that she NAV drag them to her
ports and turn them from their destination,
while they do not obiige England to respect
their FLAG and the merchandise which it CO.
yers--while they permit that power to aP-
pIe,o tlle,n the absurd rules OF blockade
which it has setsup with a view.of iajuring
France-;hey bind themselves by that to-
lerapce towards England 20 allow also the
applications of the measures Of reflisals
which France is obliged to employ against
her. His majesty regrets, without doubt,
to have been forced to recur to such mca-
sures he knows also that the commercial
classes may have to suffer In consequence Of
them, particularly those who having habi-
tual relations with England, using com
NON language, and often mixing their inter.
ests, might more frequently occasion an APP
prehension of some commercial connivance
with the English, inasmuch as they would
have greater facility in covering it. This
circumstance made it necessary to use tc-
wards them precautions more exact, and an
anceasing watchfulness,in order not to be
exposed to abuses, which might result from
aless constant vigilance. But it is. not to
France, it is to England that these inconvez
niences to individuals ought to be imputed.
She it is who has given the example Of nra-
sures unjust, illegal and Infringing on the
sovereignty Of narions. To oblige her to
renounce them it has become necessary to
oombatsher with her own arms : in violating
the rights Of all nations she has united them
ali by a common interest, and it is for them
to have recourse to force against her-to
forbid her the search Ia Oisits of their
yessels-the taking away of their crews
and to declare themselves against measures
which wound their dignity and their inde-
pendence. The unjust pretensions OF Eng
innd viii be kept up as long as those whose
rights she violates are silent and what 60
yernment has had more TO complain Of a.
'gainst her than the United States All the
difficulties which have given rise to your
reclamations, sir, would be removed with
ease, if the government of the u. States,
after complaining Of the injustice and vio-
ence of England, took with the; whole con-
tinent the part ct guaranteeing itself there
