Omitting proof* of inferior note, I refer to the extensive aggrt Uions on the trade of*th?

It fuhj-fts to capture and condensation all neutral veflelt, returning with .'awful cargoes, i,i> the foie conliriera'ion, that they had in tbtir outward *oj*ge drpofbed con traband. oi wsr at a hofiile port. If thcco®,. meree of the United States could, therefore, in any case be retfonablv tr»ai)e the and, the sport nf mutual charges and reproach**, between bf|(ig-r*n< parties, with refpefl to the priority of tbtir aggrcffions on neutral com merce, Great-Britain mult look bevond the epoch flic has ch«fe« for illegal of her ad. vrrfary, in support of the allegs'ion oit which lhe found* her rctaliatiog etiifls against out* commerce. But the; United States are given to under* Band that the British government ha«, rs a proof of its indulgent and amicable dilpofition towards them, mitigated the authorized rigour it might ha»e given to its ireafures, by .certais exceptions peculiarly favorable to the ccmmcr cial interens of the Unird State*; i forbear., Sir, to expref* all the , emotion* with which foch a largnage on fqch an occa-‘ fion, it calculated to inspire a nation which cannot for a moment be unconscious of 3:* rights, nor miflake for an aiieviation of wrong-, regulatvonr, .to admit the validity of which would be to aflunir badges of humiliation nev. er worn hr an independent power. The fi-fl of the'e isdulg ncies *.scodhmer cia) iritercourfc with the dependenci't of the enemies of Great-Briiain, and it is considered a* enhanced by Ita being s dr.virion in favor of* the U: ited State*, from th* <? nci\rtt and Lflievt principle of maritime law, prohibiting aitogvrptr fucb an in’ercourfe in tinye of van ’ Et-rely Sir, yoyr government la assuming this principle in such terms in relstion to the United States, ms:B have forgo'ten their, rrpe-it- 4 cd and formal pro-efls againß it, a* these are to be found in the difeuflions and communication* of their tr.inifter at Loodor, as well as the ex planations occasionally made on that fubjefl to the Britiflj reprelentative here. But permit me to ask, mere particularly, how it conld have happened that the principle is chsraAerized as an ancient and eßablifhed one. I put ths queflion the more freely, hecaufe it never has been denied that the principle, as asserted by your government, was for the full time intro duced during the war of 1756. It is in faft invaribly cited and deferibea in all judicial and other official tranfa&ion* “ a* the rule of 1756.” It can have no pretention, therefore, to the title c-f an ancieet rule. And inß-jad of being an eftcViJhed vnle of principle it is well known that Great-Britain is the only nation that ha* a&ed upon, or other wise given a fandion to it. Nay, if is not e*en an eßablifhed principle in the. praAjce of Great-Britain bvrfetf. When firft applied in the war of 1756, the legality of a neutral trad* with enemies colonies was rot contefled by if. In certain cases only of the colonial trade, th» a begat ion wai, that the presumptive evidence arising frc-m circum fiances againPthe bona fid* neutrality of the owrcTfhip jyfified the con demnation as of enemy’s property. If th« rule of condemnation was afterwards, during that war, converted into the principle now tl fertedjit could notpolfibly have been in opera tion in Us new shape, more than a verv few years. During the foeceeding war of 1778, it h admitted by every British authority that the principle >*a» never brought into operation.—* ft may be regarded, in faA, as having been fi. lently abandoned ; and within the period of 1 Cnee its commencement in 1793, the man. ner in which the principle has been alternately oofltr.&ed and extended, explained fornetii3*s in one way, sometimes in another, rested now on this foundation, row on that, i* no secret 1 to those who have attended to its hiftvry and progress in the British orders of council and the Britifit courts of admiralty. With the exception, therefore of a period, the last in modern times from w[»fch aurhew tick precedents of maritime law will he drawn,
