The proclamation of the President of
The United States. published here yesterday
has necessarily engaged the attention of the
merchants Of this city, and / am particu-
iarly requested by respectable number OF
them 10 ask from you an explanation on
pT'nt in it considered as very important.-
That is, whethcr the 10Th of June refers to
tie departure Of vessels from the United
States, or to their arrival in g. Britain OF,
its dependencies.
Without plcsuming to hazard an opinion
upon that point, 1T may not be improper to
remark, that if the latter shall be declared
to be its true intent aud meaning, the advan-
tage TO the United St..tes will be ncalehlabIe
AS respects expeditions to India, it NAV be
observed, that If vessels 90 not sail before
The 10th of June, they must encounter all
the DELAYS and dangers of the adverse mon
soons, ami as il respects the export of arti-
cies, the growth or produce of the United
States, the advantages are too obvious to re-
quire enumeration
Uu2er a firm persuasion that it is the de-
sire OF the President to give all proper ia
cihty to the commerce Of tile United States

on to he. submitted to the president as scon
as yoiir conrenieace will permit, aud I'll at

that enemy the evils of his own injustice
and have uniformly contended that s if third
| parties suffer from those measures, the de-
mand of PREPARATION must be made to that
I power, which first violates the establish
. ed usages Of war and the rights of neutral
StateS.'
! There was, indeed one point, upon which
was particularly anxious to receive precise
| .mltormation, and upon Which, from your
| candour and frankness, was fortunate e.
nough to obtain it. The connecting togeS
Ether in your proposed overture, the suspen-
sion of the embargo, and the repeal of the
Orders in Council--as well those.of No
vember asthe succeeding one OF the 9TH of
Jan. might appear to imply that the en-
barge had been the immediate Consequence
of those Orders, and was therefore, desir-
Gus to ascertain whether, IL fact, the Or
deI.s in Council of Nov. had been known to
the government of the United State previ-
Gus to the message of the President brobos-
ing the en1bargo--so as to be a moving
consideration to that message. / had the
satisfaction to learn from you, that such
zoas not the tact--that famoalrs, indeed,
might have reached America of some mea-
sure cf5iuther retaliatzon, being in the con-
temptation OF the British government, that,
perhaps, Gas l understood youD some more
severe and sweeping measures might have
been expected but thatthe Orders in Coun-
Gil of the 18th Of Nov. as having been issued
there was acknowledge of in Amesica--at
least none in possession of the American
government al the time of proposing the
embargo. Such, sir, is, according to the
best Of my recollection,) correctly, the sub
stance of what has passed between US, at
our several interviews, previous to the pre-
sentation Of your official letter; and such |
have represented to have been the substance
of what has passed on those several occa-
sions in the reports Of our conferences which
it has been my duty to make to the king.
If, in this recapitulation, there is any
thing mistaken, or any thing omitted, you
will do me justice to believe the error unin-
territorial, and you may rely on my readi-
ness to setit rigat.
