would seem to be the principal object
for which the war WIS made and 10
carried on, the sooner it is etfectaally
accomplished, the so,ner we may
hope for return of peace. 1t is true,
that the combined efforts Of Lord Cas-
tlereagh and Mr. Madison, will be
pretty severely felt BY the farmers aud
millers of Virginia and PennsylvaBia;
but they will have the pleasing salts.

times occurred twice or three times
