gems OF the IT, States, coming from any port or
place in his Britannia Majes,y's possessions in

island on our coast. and all vessels, that in The
course of their VOYAGES shall have touched at,
or cleared out from. any such port OF place,
upon penalty Of tbs forfeiture OF such vessels.
The second section provides, that when
any articles Of the growth, produce, or manu-
facture of the Uniied States, shall be laden for
expectation on boarded such vessel, bond shall
mol be landed in any of the ports or places
prohibited as aforesaid.
This is bold and strong measure calculated.

open their West India trade 10 us upon some
reasonable terms. We shall be- gratifed if il
should produce the desired effect But we
much doubt il. The United States have done
