A law a vowedly pafitrd to “alleviate dil wfift** which did not exit!; the fiandard of which was made, the difference between the price which is really got for produce, and that which it was txpifted would have been obtained.

Is it pofiible that 1 is excellency ran think this complete abolition cf civil proceedings the moil direst & best way “to enable us to (up per: the general government cn the high ground it has taken and the dignified attitude it has affunried.” If he really thinks so he ought to be pitied; but if he has given his ] (anftioii to this aft through popular motives, and to gratify the whirps and caprice of a band of insolent folicitois, he ought to receive that censure which his baientfs* to Ids country has rendered him so judly dtfervmg. I have as yet, considered the fubjeft upon the fuppofuiou that the planters are all now in debt, and that they have their crops of cotton yet on hand. But every per fen knows that this is not the case ; he knows that there are but compara tively few planters in the fiats that have not ciifpofed of their produce.
