TO SHEW
rHA VERY AoH & HoDY OF rHx TINE
ais FORM AND PRESSURE"

The late brilliant triumph of the A.
anerican forces on the Lake which has
excited SO much rejoicing in our coun.
try, will doubtless produce cores.
pondent depression in England. No e.
vent can be better calculated to affect
he popularity of the British Ministry.
They have been subdued on the most
important theatre of the war; by force
created under their own eyes, without
any attempt on their part, to prevent its
growth, and without any correspondent
effort to resist its future operations.
The character of the Northern Cam
paign, is changed. The possession OF
the Lakes by exposing the depots & for
trcsses of the enemy to annoyance, & by
enabling our forces by land and water to
act in concert, opens prospect of sue
cess to the American arms in that quarter;
which we had but little reason to antici.
pate. Amongst other speculations to which
this suspicious event has given rise i;
We find that it is hailed as the Hardin
ger of Peace. Full as we are of pride
aad pleasure at the honor which It has
reflected upon the national character /;
we could still find room, for another &
a greater pleasure, could we view it as
the precursor of peace. But we con-
slider it as the beginning rather than as
the end OF the war. 1t is a new appeal
. the pride OF the emery. II adds ano
Their stain to the scutcheon Of his naval
which every principle of pride
and interest calls upon him to efface.
We are therefore prepared to see a
vigorous prosecution Of the war. We
expect to see the energies of the BRITISH
government put forth, net only to protect
their own, bat to annoy our territory.
We expect to see the war, in shape
more alarming than any it has yet assum'
ed, brought to our own doors.

From the W York Corn: Advertiser
FREE TREpE & SAILORS RIGHTs.

No. |.
The trade and sailors Immediately in
teresting to these American states are
the American.
If advantages would accrue to some
owners of vessels from the freighting OF
foreign property and the employment OF
foreign sailors, are they so interesting
as to be worth war to this country
To say nothing of common attendants
of the war, such as lives destroyed, trea-
sure expended, debts incurred, taxes
multiplied-,hall the trade and sailors
property belonging to America be thrown
aside, for the sake of foreign property or
foreign sailors? Such in effect is the
general question relative to vessels IN.
der American colours.
That the flag * trading vessels should
cover the cargo and crew, without re-
curing either cargo or crew to be OF the
country whose colors aredisplay edat mast
nead, is the general amount of a doc
trine, which the French have urged with
much zeal, and on which their Emperor
Napoleon insists as if conformable to the
treaty of Utrecht
Undoubtedly, the doctrine istbelieved
to be for the French interest otherwise,
1t would not continue to have such yea
lous advocates in the Frenc h.
If the doctrine we're admitted in full,
entire cargees of French property and
crews of French sailors, in time of war,
might 20 freely and be safe in trading
vessels, under neutral colours, while the
French flag disappeared from the ocean.
Then, if America were Neutral French
vessel owned in America and used Tor
French convenience, with stars and
stripes of white and red for the colours,
might have crew entirely French and
carry French property, without expos
ing either TO be taken in WAY. This
fashion of encouraging persons in French
allegiance to serve in vessels sailing I'M
der American or neutral colors, and so
accustoming them 10 the seas, might
enter into the French views of policy,
until that government should want the
French sailors for service avowedly
French and then they could be recalled.
Although all this might be of advan-
taee to the French, what would be the
advantage to the merchants and sailors
of these American states? If our own
property and people can be securely
free on the ocean in case of neutrality,
ought these States to be eontending far
doctrine favorable to belligerent France
with reference to trade and sailors !
The public welfare is deeply staksd
on the decision.

1t is even suggested that the Bri-

pretend to have any information upsn
this subject, and barely state what
we have heard.
The Neptune arrived at Copenha-
cen on the Esd Of June, and was
there on the 9th of July. 1t may
excite suspicion, that our ministers
wished to have some communication
with the French government before
they proceeded to Russia, or to the
Emperor. But suspicion alone would
not justify a refusal to treat. 1t
must be confes sed, that if our Minis

peror of Russia was. Gottenburg or
