TOWN MEETING.
Monday, august Is, 1903.

TOWN MEETING.
About ten days since, number Of
the citizens presented an application to
the SeleCtmen of this town, requesting
them to call a Meeting for the purpose
Of consulting on the losses and embar-
easements we are subjected to in con-
sequence Of the intcrdicuon of all for.
eign commerce.
The Selectmen have complied with
the request and the meeting will be
holden this day, At . O'Clock, A. NJ.
We understand the object is, to con-
suit on the expectancy Of peitioning
the President of the United States for
repeal of the laws laying an embargo,
and the prohibiting the expectation of
any property belonging to citizens of
the United States, In whole or in part,
II consistent with the authority vested
in him ; otherwise to request him 10
summon an early meeting Of Con
gress, 10 take the same into Considera-
ton. Whatever were the motives
which Induced the government to pass
non-intercourse laws with The whole
commercial world, it must now appear
to every candid and reAecting mind,
that the experiment has had fair trial,
and that the longer this system of
measures is continued, the greater will
be cur distress. SO far from produ-
cling any favorable effect on other ma
lions, It operates directly the reverse.
We have no motive in making these
remarks, TO eDcoura &c a violation Of the
laws laying an embargo; for the depri-
walton which the community labors
under by their existence, ought to be
borne alike BY all, md no illegal OF uh-
constitutional measure ought 10 BE re-
sorted to 10 effect a'remedy. 4 res
tOraGon of oar commercial nights and
privileges is alike Interesting to all. and
involves the best interests of the Far
mer and Mechanic az well as the Mer-
chant. There can be no separate inter
est II this question i embraces all
classes Of citizens, be their pursuits
what they may. Let us then throw a..
side party names and distinctions, and
act for the common welfare.

Eriract q z letter from Philadelphia 70
The editors Qffte Network Gazette,
dated Jl.ty II.
"You will perceive in the U. S. Ga

from high authority, that 10 rengoH-

the Usage went TO England, and after
remaining there a considerable time,
actually returned again TO this country,
without any communication having
been submitted by Mr.. PINcKNEY 10
the government of that country. This
assertion, after q lapse of some days,
has drawn from DUANE, on finding
himself unable to refute it, a very angry
attack on the British Consul here, up
on the supposition that he had commu-
nicated it to the editor of the Gazette.
Duane's attack has excited more gen
eral attention 10 the facts asserted i'm
the Gazette, and has led to such enquir-
les, as leave no doubt in my mind, and
that Of many others, that no dispatches
went by that ship, which led To any
communication whatever with the Bri-
tish government. And that no com
munication whatever was made bv Mr..
Pinckney to that government, from the
day Of her arrival III England to the
day Of her departure. The question
then occurs, Why did she go to Eng

that this circumstance is a continuance
