And indeed, it would be no matter
Of iurprize to his friends, if, finding
the negotiation now going on at
Warrington, between him and the
Chinele Chief, the next freak that
feized him were to barter his red
breeches for the habiliments of a
Mandarin.
It was imPofible FOR our great ex-
perimental philosopher, fertile in pro-
je6ts as he is, to have dcvifed mea-
fure more directly calculated to fur
render the benefits Of our commerce,
and the profits of our agriculture,
into the hands of others He con-
Gders the EngIifh as our enemies,
and in order to avenge himfelf Of
them, will throw all our trade into
their hands.
The Canadians have already avail
ed themlelves of our folly. They
are now carrying on commerce to an
amount unknown to them before
our Embargo, and making Provident
arrangements for its further extern
fon. It's fact, perhaps not gen
orally known, that fome parts of
Canada, and particularly that por-
ton Of it called Youngfreet, are
among the hneft wheat countries in
the world the land being little IF
any interior to the bef land Of Ian
CATER County in his State. And
afIert i for a truth, that feveral
families Of Germans, have lately
removed from Lancafer County to
fettle in Youngdreet, where a con-
Gderable body Of the Society Of
Friends had previouGy efablifhed
thcmtelveS and greatly improved the
country, and where they can purchafe
valuable plantations at forty pounds
iterling for one hundred acres. An
intelligent gentleman, recently re-
turned from Wifi to that quarter,
gives it as his opinion, that as much
wheat Will be TOWN there this feafon,
as wIIIenable the inhabitants to fupply
the WeA Indies
The Brazils, Cumana, Mexico and
other countries Of South America,
Of yalt extent, are well adapted to the
growth OF all cur ltaple commodities,
ana can produce two crops Of wheat
ii year az esdly as We can one.
Since The arrival Of the Braganzas at
Eio jauairo, we are informed that
orders were fcnt IN England, at one
time, for inlurance on 10000 barrels
of Rice. he Cotton Of that Coun-
try, and If Surrinam, now polIlftd
by the EnElilh, is prime i'll quality,

limited only BY the demand.-An OK

20 united TO the recent occurrences
in Spain and Portugal, mutt operate
as a powerful itimuious to iudultry
and enterprise in the extenGve coun-

doubt can exit, they can cultivate
enough to fupPly the whole world.
Thus, whenever the Embargo fhall
be raifed, We hal have 70 cope with
new and powerful rivals, created Prln-
cipally by our cuPidity and crooked
policy. The price Of our produce
muE ALTO be greatly dePrefed by this
additional circumitance, that when
ever we do again come into the mar
ket, we fhalI do il with at leaf two
crops on hand and what is worit
than all, we have driven the people
