scri6es, we hope that our government will re-
taliate by refusing TO parole any British ma
val officer whom the fate of war may throw
into their hands. 1t is the absolute duty of
commander of an American private arm
cd ship, who acts under the national au.
thority, to throw over his guns, if il be ne
cessary to enable him to escape when chased
by superior enemy. 1t is his duty, and
every brave and patriotic commander will
obey Its dictates, to do every thing i'm his
power to prevent his vessel from being ia
Ken aud if he finds that the enemy will
take him, he ought tn exert himself to make
the prize as little valuable as possible, with
out sacrificing Himself or his crew. We
never before heard these obviously correct
principles doubted: and we trust that no gal
liant American officer will be deferred bv
the novel and insoent threats of the enemy.
from serving his country by every lawful
means in his power. HIS government and
his country will see tllat he shall rot snfier

Great Britain seems resolved on introduce
ing an entirely new mode of warfare "a
mong nations. Possessing an ascendancy
of naval power, she presun,es that she may
dictate any rule of war Oh the ocean which
may suit TIC idnCy OF caprice Oh her Con-
tcmptible ministry-Were the . ovel prin-
ciples which she aims to establish calcutta
ted to soften the usual rigors of war, it
would be well for other nations to aecedc
to them. But they render warfare more
severe and cruel; they threaten to reduce
mankind u their original uncivilized aud
barbarGus state again and therefore all
enlightened nations ought to protest against
their introduction.
