arts OF peace and in acts OF hospt lily and

particular foreign countries, il is certain,
that for America TO have Il chance of re-
manning at peace, for any 9Th of time,
she must be we'll armed, and, in all res.
poets, prepared for war.
This navy will be considerable ex-
pence but, If it were to cost so millions
If dollars i'll the space of .JiUe years, how
amply would that cost be compens ated by
the preventing o. war with any power in
Europe Vet, even this cXpen~e, which

country safe, won d carry the taxes to a
mere trh: compared with ours, and would
besides, be met by more than proportion

ton and all the othcr sources, whence
taxes are drawn.
How able America IS to az CompilSh thlS
grand object, and to pay the interest of her
det, AID even to clear it quite IF at the
same time, will appear upon comparing the
in ;reAs sc of population and Commerce with
that OF her dc5t.
My materials for doing this are not so
ample as ! cHuld wish but think, trey
arc sufficient for the purpose. In 1890 the
debt OF America was r millions OF dollars,
her population less than four mliions--amd
her eXpnrts, domestic and fore gn, 10 mil
lions of dollars IL am unit. In 1900, her
popuIa,i III exceeded five mi lions her ex-
ports 90 millions; and her 4 bt was 50
millions Of dollars, she having in the mean
while built. fitted out, and manned, sever
al frigates and other ships of war. In 1910
her population rose to more than seven
millions, and her debt sunk down to less
than go millions OF dollars but her ex-
ports fell OF to 60 millions of dollars, ow-
ing to causes resembling war. .ho7v her
population must exceed eight millions

ct English commerce and navigation
Great part CT what has lately sw,Iled out
the latter, consisting of TRANSPORTS in pay
Of the nation, did in no wise whatever
belong to commerce, and form no part of
the means OF bearing taxes. We have
already seen crowds of sailors going to the
Admiralty to complain of svant Of emhioy-
fnent. They have been to the Lord May
or Qf London On the same errand-As If
he Could create commercials IL he, tho
very loyal man could find work for them
or cause bread to descend from the clouds.
Is this the case ia .Hmerica ? Oh, no
There peace makes the wharves full of
business. Every man and thing belonging
to the sea is called from twenty voices at
once. II is said, that in order to procure
the chance Of employment for our native
sailors, all foreign sailors are to be sent
home. Those in our Nary may be thus
disposed Of but law must be passed be-
fore merchants can be compelled to pre-
fer ours before foreigners and law, too,
precisely opposed in principle to the laws

war serves two years on board a British

This is the LAW and, therefore, if it
be true, IS the newspapers tell us it is,
that The government is going to send home

Ii it were to take its place in the list OF

that the seamen, thus sent home, would be
ready TO man the ships and carry On the
