From, The Ne,c- York Commercial .3dr. .qae. u
Philadel phia papers Of Saturday e,enmg ,s,
tain the following news:
"Extract of letter dated
"NEw-Y York. Aug. 2--2 o'ci,c.. :
"One of our most respectable houses here. h.
received private letters by the Caledonia. below
announcing the opening Of the British West L.
dies to our flag.
"Half-past 81 open this to confirm the a1n
THE PORTS ARE OPEN"
We doubt whether hoax was intended. byt
individual who transmitted this early infonats
to Philadelphia; though so far as belief
would produce any effects, it was hoax 10
intents and purposes. We sorrow most Tor d.
brethren of the press whom such mis-ad,lce p.I
ces underline awkward necessity olcorrectiu. r.
takes, and bringing the premature gs,lae',
their readers to gloom. The Philadelp.,l vi
Zette says:
1.-The intelligence is credited here, aud 4
believe we may venture to congratulate Ourhl
mers on the prospect ofan additional demandi
their produce, and our merchants on the prOF'I
of widening Of the scope Of commercial tn@'
prize"
1t is true that Mr.. Peel replied. in ansvan,
question on this subject, that negotiations Sar !
pending with the American Minister So thg
have been fer very considerable time pat
And it would be well always to remember ttE
direct intercourse with the West lndia ports VII
not be granted, until after due notice given tot.
Colonies; and then only with such exceptions al
determinations in favor of British bottoms, a. vi
render it not more profitable than the indnetfi
trade at present carried on, and which 't;Soli
be degrading in any other administration 'op
cept. At any rate. whenever any thing 'hiIi
done, it will not be- revealed to US in the manlf|
in which it has been by the dozen spurious TePfs
we have had Of late.
