{" II Is true, we still enjoy part of this trade
indirectly, and always shall, unless the British
government should prohibit her colonies from ex-
porting to any Of the neighboring countries. At
the same time, IL cannot be denied, that the remov-
al Of the present restrictions would be highly ad-
| va Dtageous to commerce, and equally so, no
doubt, TO the Colonies themselves
The Journal proceeds to trace the reasons Of it's
being lost to us-which, in fact, are to be found in
the remissDess and mismanagement OF the last Adj
mnstratioD. The Journal thus proceeds:
" Thus, with some slight notifications, the mat
ter stands at present. However Justly or unjust
ly, the British government appear to have atribut-
ed the whole affair to the influence Of Mr.. Adj
ans; and the rather, on account OF certain Obsta-
Giles which he threw in the way Of successful me-
COLLATION. while Secretary of State. On this ac-
count they have watched with great interest the
disposition Of Gen. jackson relative 10 the matter
in dispute; and there is no doubt that the coion-
al trade can be restored TO its former footing IN
der the present administration, with far less diff
Guilty than ii could have been under the former"
We have no doubt, that the present Adninis'fa-
tion stands better chance Of recovering ilIe
trade than the former would have done. ~ has
more the habits OF business, and a more conciI
atory temper than the last. IL would never have
los. the trade, as the Coalition 20 shamefuIly dds
but as il has 10 repair all the errors which the last
Administration left behind IL. and more especially
that infatuated disposition which they in1uged OF
interfering with a liberal trade in British goods,
| through the medium Of the Tariff, there is much
reason to doubt whether the best exeI tons Of the
present Administration can be avaiIing. We have,
however, cool and clear he AIDED ne gociator in
Mr.. McL'De, 10 undertake. the business; and we
are satisfied, that whatever can be honorably and
properly done TO restore the trade Of the two coun
~ies' may be expected Of Mr.. MeLsne.
