NoTE.-Snce the above was pronounced the
President has by message communicated to the So
nate, letter from Lord Aberdeen to Mr. Barbour,
dated on the goth OF Jan. lS29-by which it APP
pears that the latter had protested against such
determinations as incompatible with the CONNER
clal Convention, but the former had insisted that
there was no such incompatibty, and that the Bi.
fish Government had the right to institute and per-
severe in such measures. AS to the advantage TO
bc gained by British ship, he says their laws
did not then confer it, and adds it ''could not be
effected without the concurrence of the United
states 1t rests entirely with the United States
to allow or prohibit the carriage Of their cotton TO
British Colony in the British ship which in the
case supposed Is to carry it 10 England" and that
by Mr. Adams proclamation of March, 1927, it
was prohibited. All this must have been known
TO the American Minister and Secretary of State
when by the arrangement of 1880, the prohibition
was removed. The same message also transmitted
extracts of two letters from Mr.. McLano to Mr.
Van Buren,, under dato of 18th of March and
l4th OF April, 1881. BY which it appears that
the Chancellor of the Exchcquer had expressed
an intention to prevent the crcutous trans.
MISSION, by requiring certificate of origin,
That 1t might not defeat his own purposes of
revenue. But promise, stipulation was
obtained. On the contrary, our right under the
convention seems to bc abandoned in the conclu-
sion of the letter. The language is, 81 have no
great confidence in our prctcntiORS under the Con.
vcntion, so long the vessels Of both countries
shall be placed on the same footing in tho direct
trade with British European ports, and, therefore
thought the surcst means Of attaining our object
would be TO address myself Immediately to the in
tcrcsis of Great Britain herself IL is apparent
that the financial object of this Government would
be cHectualy frustrated by keeping mp the discrim
nation between the direct and Indirect i,nnorta
ton, and thore il little danger that tho English
finances will ever be in situation to enable her
to disregard so important a branch of her rovo-
nue."
The power is in effect conceded, and our sccur.
ty against its exercise merely and solely the inter
est Of Great Britain. She cannot dispense, it is
said, with the revenue, which would be lost under
the low duty Of twonty-ffth of penny by
way Of the colonies.--What security is this7 How
easy for the next parliament to add five eghths Of
penny to both mposts, the direct and circuitous
preserving the difference and securing the revenue
Nay, if our right is abandoned, she may increase
the discrimination, and when for revenue she adds
to the duty from the colonies five oighths Of a pen
ny, she may increase it in the direct voyage to ten
or an hundred times that amount

The first is compiled from Official Documents
and the latter, from the authority of our late Mi.
mister to London.
In this come ction, [ would notice an error or
deception, which has been industriously propara.
ted. 1t has been represented that our inland
trade from New York, Vermont and Maine, to Ca.
NADIA and New Brunswick, had it's origin too, in
this arrangements; when we all know that il exist
cd before, and was prosecuted without restraint
That the restrictive and prohibitory laws were
confined to the commerce shy sea- and reached
not to that by land, lakes or rivers. We further
know, that it was the anxious desire of Great Rri
tain, to continue and extend it. Even Mr.. Can
Mug, in his btteresL mood declared that Il was moi
her purpose TO interrupt IT, and she did not In
decd pa pably for her interest and in accordance
with her policy is IT, that has been sometimes in
sisted that the United States ought to SUPPRESS il
means of cocrcing Great Britain. The open
ing this market by internal communication wit \
Quebec and New Brunswick, has been ascri
bed 10 MIR. McLano's negotiation, with about the
same prOpriety the effects of the hurrica
in Bar5ad0es.
There is yet another most grave and serious az
pcct of this subject, that Of our
ErPorts IN and Imports from Great Britain
Since the British have been permitted to take
clcaranccs from ports for their Northern pro-
ylnccs, under the recent agreement, that Govern
ineui has manifested disposition to nut into orr
ration the same machinery Of varying imposts in

been changed from an ad valorem Of per cent.

actually begun to t'ko advantage of this discrimi

Lubec in Maine, under date of the 18th of March
last, informs me, that merchant from New Bruins
wick had recently gone to Savannah, for the avow-
ed purpose Of so employing his ship, and docla
ring that nc would thereby have an advantage over
the Americans of 5s Cd. sterling per cwt. in the
