BritiJJ? outrage and murder !
By feveral gentlemen from the
eailward, we learn that a Britifh ar
med fehoonrr landed a number ot
men cn an Iftand near Caftine, where
a quantity of dower had been de
ported, over which a guard had
been fet by the Collector. The
‘Englifhmcn fired upon the guard,
killed one man by the name ot
Laurens , and ft T k him in the ftream,
took another prifoner, and carried off
ihefljur. Upon information given
to the Colieftor, he employed a
vefthl and a number of volunteers,
Who failed in purfuit of the En
gliflimeh, and found them at anchor
in Fox-IQjnd-thoro-fare (fo called.)
The Englilhnien inftantly cut their
cables and crouded all fail ; but were
loon overhauled, vefTel and crew
taken, an i carried info Caftine,
where they were under examination
on Friday lift; when our informant
left that puce— E. Argus,
We are not furprifed that Great
Britain could wifh to reduce the
patriot!fm of the American people,
and their aft'efthon for their country,
conftitutidn and union ; for, on a
relaxation in our sfFe&ion for thefe
important points, depend her in
fluence and the eventual profpeft: of
fucceeding in counfelltng our coun
feilors, and depriving our fenacors
cf wifdom, and thereby turning all
our refources into her own coffers ;
being a nation o f merchants,- n “p
is always the ordef of the day with
them, but we are really furprifed to
find many American merchants ad
vocating the exsennon of her pow
er, when they well know that the
Englifti trade alone, receives more
money as balance from this country,
than all the profit made on cur
trade to every other part of the
world. No merchant would think
If m a good cuftomer by whom he
fh >uid lofe more than.aU his gains
frerry, every other ; and yet iuch,
in a national point of view, is the
cafe with this country in her trade
to the Britifh poffeflions. Under
the prefent circumftances, we muft
exueft Great Britain will be feeking
dominions In the* weft, theeaftis
becoming fait untenable, the two
great powers, Rufiia and France,
with Perfia as an ally, or fubjeft
