AMERICA-We are extremely solicit
Gus to learn what effect will be produced in
America by our order of general blockade.
1t is not likely that we shall be long kept in
suspense, for vessel which sailed from Ii
verpool Immediately after these orders were
issued, is known TO have anchored in Boston
bay so early as the 9Th of December 1t is
probable that the american government we've
pretty well prepared to expect such mea-
s9re, both by the reports OF Mr.. Monroe,
and by the previous statements In our public
journals. Indeed, q letter was en- Saturday
received by respectable house IN the city,
from New York, which-states, that il was
confidently expected IN that city, and orders
would be specify issued for an embargo upon
all British Slips in American ports, and for a
suspension Of ali commercial intercourse with
this country. We have not been able to as
certain the date of the letter, but 1t is very
much at variance with others ola very recent
date which We have seen from the same
CITY,
TO Judge from tic general sentiments Of
our merchants, one would be induced to con-
slider war with America as inevitable. As yet.
however, we dissent from that opinion, for
we cannot believe that the American govern
ment and still less the American people, viii
run headlong to their own ruin. among those
of cur merchants who do not trade with the
u States, the name OF Americans is as obi
Gus as the Dutch were to our ancestors in the
days of Cromwell, and, in this quarter, a
war would, Of course, be highly popular
Even of the merchants trading to America,
the major part are disposed to take all hazards
of war; rather than abate title Of our na-
tional demands SO that it is chiefly to our
manufacturers that the prospect of such a
contest is matter OF alarm.
