It is a fact here in point, that when Mr. Dayton’s resolution, in 1794, was in discussion before congress, most of the British agents in Rich mond employed a confidential Jew to cover their property under his own name,— Richmond En quirer, Oc ober, 1805. The foregoing extract shews the state of the American public mind two years ago, on tire tlren expected or existing diffaientes viitr Britain. Now, when a partial non-intercourse Ml and an embargo has been adopted in conse quence of the actual state of things, entre nous, and some of the belligerents, it is in vain to deny the wisdom ot the measure. True— produce has fallen, and may fall lower—Ships ands. ilois idle—no freight ;no employ—and the long list of el cetei as, kc. resulting from this nitghiy grievance. But our ships and our sailors are at heme, or daily arriving—better to keep our produce than give it to an enemy ; and. if we thusi fight, we can man our batteries.
