prosperity-
i lost in hriugii
& hoped tso
bringing forward the
eur taternal
time would be
measures.
Mr. Philips objected to the measures
proposed, as it would raise the price of
cotton 50 or 60 per cent, above tho ave
rage. Aincrieaiuiotton, he said, was fi
ner and better, than our colonies raised,
and if the importation of it was prohibited
for three years after the war ceased, it
would find its.way t> other countries
and destroy all pur competition in Eu
ropean mark“ti». All that is wanted is
to make the blockade effectual, and not
suffer a pound of cotton to escape while
denied to our own manufactures.
Mr Manning w .s in favor of the strict
hlockode, and wen high duties, and the
encouragement'ol’ oifr own Colonies and
Allies, in addron. It was our duty to
deal with ns, and not with America, which
had refused all mutually beneficial inter
course.
Sir W. Curtis was perfectly clear, that
if encouragement was'given to our own co
lonies, to our allies, and to our East-In
dia possessions, we need fear no want of
Cotton far our manufactures. There was
plenty io the country for the consumption
of one year, and long before that expired,
if we acted wisely we might have enough
for all future purposes. lie had seen as
fine cottons from the isle of Bourbon as
the Sea cotton of America. We there
fore not only have sutficieut, but of the
best quality, without providing bur eno
mies with the sinews of War. lie would
never consent to encourage the enemies of
Britain. The ■ Americans were our de
termined enemies, and they should always
find one in him.
Mr. L&scelles was afraid that if we did
not take the Americans cottons, other
nations would und injure us in our maiiu
factures. lie desired to know if the, right
hon. Gentleman abandoned Ilia former
proposition P
’I he Chancellor of the Exchequer again
explained, and restated his intentions
Ho was not decided as to the prohibition
ot American cottons. The question was
of a commercial as well as of a political
nature [as for its finance operation, that
was entirely laid out of viewj and in the
former point of consideration, tlie- great,
object in liis mind was, that interference
in mercantile concerns often did more
harm tliao good. As a political measure
they were ail agreed, that if the blockade
could be carried effeetiinlly into execution
till they could bring the Americans t<
terms of negociation, it would be by far
the wisest and best policy. He had been
told, that a geographical blockade would
be more effectual, and be acknowledged
it—b it we hid no right by the law of na
tions to iustitutc such a blocklike against
America.} for America had not yet be-
come openly a party to the Continental
system, w hich was our only ground for a-
doptiug this course towards France. We
bad notified the blockade, as to all ports
we could completely shut, and the com
manders of the Meet might occasionally in
atitute local blockades, as circumstances
required. Thus every port south
Kiiode-lsland would be pul in a state of
biocaauc. \\ ith respect tojhe mistake in
grantiug one or two licenses, it was per
fecllv true that after they had been re
Ihsed by Lord Liverpool, they were ob-
tttiued from the Noble Lord at the head
of the Board of > rude, w hich arose from
that Noble Person having been absent
from town from a heavy domestic calami
ty, and being for the moment unaware ol
the determination of the Noble Earl.—
This however, was now completely reme
died. As for the arrivals which had been
alluded to, he knew nothing of them. If
the statement was correct} he accounted
for it by the circumstance of these vessels
having sailed from America before the
blockade was instituted. lie concluded
by expressing th ■ happiness it would give
hit i, could all our ditiei euces with Auie-
ma be settled.
Tbe petition was ordered to'lie on the ta
ble. Another petition from tbe shipping
interest, on tlie same subject was also dis-
posed.
BATTLE OF LUTZEN.
The Prussian and French account* arc
eo maternity different, that it is impossi
ble to judge from them who is the victor.
—There is one thing, however which
can rarely err. The Map is the brstguid*
we have—it is better than all their bulle
tins. We judge of thepositions of the
p irlies—and in general, we conclude that
the party which retreats is beaten, the
pursuing one successful. The allies have
fallen Hack 90 miles from the field of 'Lut
zen.—They have retreated they say, to
the ground between the Elbe and tbe Ci
der, to join a reinforcement of 100,U00
troops under Baron Tnlli.
There are two circumstances which
distinguish this action and enhance tbe
credit of the victory of the French—
a deficiency of cavalry and tbe number
of young levies which formed their ranks.
