\ NOVEL, SCGcEsr1oS.-A merchant of
New York has written letter to Gen
Cass suggesting a method by WHICH, he
thinks, u satisfactory arrangement could
be made with Great Britain for rinquiring
into the nationality OF suspicious ves-
sells. He recommends that an Amari-
can Lieutenant should be placed on board
OF every British cruiser, and that y Brit
lsh Lieutenant should be placed on board
OF every American cruiser, on the look
out for slavers, and that any suspected
vessel should be visited and her papers
examined by the officer whose national
flag she might carry. In this way, he
believes, all feelings of national honor
and pride might be respected, and the
ends of visit attained without any
possibility of national offence
We think we know o better plan
than that: Let every American ship
sailing in the track of those English mig
ger seekers be armed with one Of Com
mander Dahlgrcen's 80 lb shells; then,
if hailed by British cruiser, treat him
with silent contempt, and, if fired at by
the latter, return, tie fire! Our word for
1.-THE niggcr seekers will decline any
further conversation.
