IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT,
HOUSE OF LORCS, JaN. 23.
Orders iri Council.
Lord Auckland dated, that a no
ble friend of h/s,, (Lord Grenville)
whole abfence, on occafion of di
ne fs, he had t) regret, but whofe
Ninels would for; he hoped, be cf
lor,g continence, had requefted
him to flat* to the Houfe, that if
he (Lord Grenville) had been ena r
bleu to bf prefent, he fhould have
joined in e very tribute of applaule
to the mtfits of Sir Arthur Wellef
ley. Ha noble friend had alfo re
queftecfAim to move, that the Lords
be fuiimoned for this day fortnight,
when it was the intention of his
ficbfi friend to bring forward a
mor/on toaddfefshis majefty to re
fciid the orders in council; and to
foi/nd that motion upon the letter
which had been publifhed from Mr.
Pinkney, the American minifter to
our government j and the anfwerof
the fecretary of flare. It was r
quifite that thofe papers fhould be
before the Houfe* and his lordfhip,
therefore, moved for the correfpon
dence between the miniflers of the
two governments.
The Earl of Liverpool wifhed to
confine the production of papers to
thofe who had been publifhed by
the American government and
©bfefved, that- no communication
W4s made to Parliament refpefting
America', because our exiflingrela
tions with the United States were
not in that flare which would au
thorife fuch a communication.
Lord Erfkine expreffed his
decided opinion, that if the propofl
tion of the American government,
reipe&ing the refeinding the ordeis
in council* were agreed to, there
would be war between the United
States and France in a month.
Lord Auckland movtd, that
there be laid before the Houte co
pies of extracts of fuch correfpon
dence as may have takenpiace be
tween his majelly's miniflers, and
the government of the U. States
of America, fince January 1808.

The Federal Republican of yef
terday morning, with .its ufual re
gard for truth, informs—that Tea
men cannot be had in fufficient
numbers to .carry on the fmall por
tion of commerce permitted ] and
intimates, they have fought refuge
in foreign nations, inftead of apply
ing to the labors of agriculture and
the arts, as.the republicans have
ccnftantly ftated. From hence
they would infer that * the embar
go has net preferved.our feamen.’ .
It is fadt—that there are more
than 300 feamen flow in port wait
ing for employment. - 3
it is fadt—that very lately a num
ber of men were enjifted in this city
for the United States fervice, and
fent to Walhinton, &c. . -
It is fadl—rthat about 409 feamen
have failed from this port fince the
fifteenth ioftant.
It is £adt—that fcores of them
come in from the country every day,
and that, many return rather than
rifk their liberty on the ocean.
It is Taft—that many prefer 10
dollars per month on land, to 30
dollars per month go water, in the
prefent ftate of things. . , ‘ ,
It is fadt—that the waives of feT
men are high (about so dollars)
and, it is very certain, they to
be fo, Every man's profit lhouid
be in proportion to the rifle he runs.
It is morally certain—that BQt
withftanding the rifk, as loon-as the
prefent high wages are known
through the country, that this city
will have a great many more fea
men .than will find employment e-
reduced prices. ... p
We fay the f embargo has
ferved our feamen,* and that no man
can, with; juftice deny it. Hun
dreds of feamen have various trades
—they are at work at thefe, and
cannot in a moment abandon them,
admitting they felt perfectly free to
riik themfelves among the harpies
of Europe.— Pofi.
THE. PROSPECT 1
We can alTure our friends that
the .profpedl of republican fuccefs is
truly animating. In ail quarters
the good old Ipirit has revived.*—
The wavering are confirmed—the
deluded are returning. The outra
geous conduct of. the Legflature
has converted thoufands. It is im
poffible for .the dandid.federalift tq
refill the vaft mafs of evidence now
prefling upon him. Were thee
lettion delayed three weeks longer,
that light might fpread into the re
mote fe&ions of the Common
wealth, a very large republican
majority, would be mathematically
certain. As it is, nothing but a
neglect of the means we have in
our power can prevent our glorious
triumph. It cannot be poflible
that even federalifts will give their
votes to fuch a deteftable character
as Gore.
