From the Richmond Enquirer, OAober 5.
Bell’s Weekly Mefienger.
md the London Courier,
both of lhem miniflerial pa
pers, have lately thrown
cold water upon the expec
tations of peace. The Mes- j
fenger fays that “ nothing
can be expected from a
Congress ’ —and the Courier
asks, “ Who is there that
• thinks lecure peace (with
I France) practicable at this
moment ?’* The fame rea- j
son is atTigned by both,viz—
that England ought to yield
nothing as to the great ma
ritime points. The Mef
lenger declares that she ■
ntuft exercise all her ‘rights
of search, colonial blockade,
and overhauling crews and {
goods.* 1 he Courier equal- i
ly protefis again fl the fur
icnder of one atom of their
‘ vi art time rights, the main
mail of her conflitution and
her newer.*
*4V* • |'Vfl V. & •
The Messenger fays no
thing diredly as to Ameri
can affairs—yet the right it
puts in of overhauling crews
is enough to show us what
are its expectations. The
Courier is icis reserved
*As little likelihood (it
adds) is there of any speedy
adjustment of the differen
ces with America.’ and e
choes the expression of the :
Pr ince Regent, that *he i
will not content to purchafc
the refforation of peace by
any facritice of the mari- !
_ m „ t*
tiir.e rights of the British
empire.'
It is fufiicient for us so
fay, that we do not ask the
facrifice of any right— but
merely the abandonment of
ja wrong, which has been
pra<stifed upon u*; for such
we contend, according *o
the law of nations, is the
| a slump? ion of overhauling
our crews . We cite theie
Journals to fnew the flight
expedition which is enter
tained in England of peace
wit!) America, and the ne
celhty which it imposes of
calling out all our resources
I to meet the brunt of war.
