;ui.i mvir cargoes, on cue pretext ei tueir being employed in a trade with the enemies Of Great Britain, prohibited in time of peace, is an un provoked aggression upon the property of the citizens of then* United States, a violation of their neutral rights, and an encroachment upon theit tuitiona/ inHcp+tulencc.r> On the Pitli of February 1806, the question Upon the adoption of this resolution, was taken in the senate. The yeas and nays weie requir ed; hut not a solitary nip was heard in answer. It was adopted by the u.iunitnous voice of all the senators present. 1 hey were twenty-eight in number, and among them stands recorded the name of Mr Pickering. Let us remember tbat this was a question most peculiarly' and imme.liately of cominr.rciuf, and not ngricuttnr.il interest; tiiat it arose from a call, loud, energetic and unanimous, from ail the merchants of the United Stalins upnncnu gress, for the national interposition; that many ol the memorials invoked all the energy of the legislature, nod pledged the lives and properties of the incrn igalists in support of any measures which congress might deem necessary to vindi cate those rights. .\eg-H?iatii»n was particular ly recommended- from Boston, and elsewhere_ . negoeiarion was adopted— uegneiatinn has (Idled —and now Mr Pickering tells us that Great Britain has claimed and maintained her right! He argues that her claim is just—and i«Tnot sparing of censure upon those who still consider it as a serious cause of coinplaint. BuLthore was one point of view in which the British doctrine pn this question was then only Considered incidentally in the United States— because it was not deemed mateiial for the discussion of our rights. We examined it Chiefly as affecting the principles as between a belligerent and a neutral power. But in fact it wds an infringement of the rights of war, as well as the rights of peace It Was an unjustifiable enlargement of thespliero of hos tile operations. Thernpwii'c.vofGrv»al Rriinhi by the universal law of nations, a right to the be - nelitsuf neutral commerce within their domin ions (subject lu the exceptions of actual block ade and contraband) as well as neutral nations have a right to trad.; with them. The exclu sion from that commerce by this new principle of warfare which Uritain, in defiance of all im memorial national usages, undertook her by single authority to establish, but too- naturally led her enemies to resort to new and extraordin ary principles, by which in their turn they might retaliate this injury ui on her. The pretence upon which Britain in the first instance had at tempted to colour her injustice, was a miserable ^fiction. It was an argument against fact. Her reasoning was, (hat a neutral vessel by mere admission an time of war, into ports from which it should have been excluded iu time of peace, became thereby deprived of its national cha racter, anJ ipso facto was transformed into ene my's properly. Such was the basis upon which arose the far famed rule of the war of 175(3—such was tlio founlation upon which Britain claimed' and main1 lined this supposed right of adding that new instrument of desolation to the horrors of war—it was distressing to her enemy—ves ! had she adopted the practice of dealing with them in poison—rhad Mr. Fox accepted the service of the man who offered to rid him of the French emperor by assassination, and had the attempt succeeded, it would have been less distressihg to France than this rule of the war of 1758 ; and not moie unjustifiable. Mr. Fox had too fair a inind for either, but his comprehensive and liberal spirit was discarded, with the cabinet which he had formed. It has been the struggle of reason and hu manity, and above all of Christianity, for two thousand years, to mitigate the rigors of that ■esurge of humanity, war. It is now the strug. gle of Britain to aggravate them. Her rule of the war of 175(3, in itself and in its effects, was one of the deadliest poisons, in' which it was possible for her to tinge the weapons of her hos tility. In itself and in its effects, I sav—for the French decrees of Berlin an l of Milan, the Spanish and Dutch decrees of the same or the like tenor, and her own orders of January and I^ov.——thesealtornations of licensed pillage, this eager competition between her and lier ene mies for the honor of giving the last stroke to the vitals of maritime neutrality, all are justly attributable to their as-u.option and exercise of this single principle. The rule of the war of 1756 was the root from which all l hr rest are but tuckers, still at every shout growing ranker in luxuriance. In the last decrees of France & Spam, her own ingenious fiction is adopteJ; and under them, every neutral vessel that submits to English - search, lias Seen carried into an English port, or P:i<d tax to the E iglish government, is dc ■JodareJ dtniliun t-'ized-, .that is, to have hist her • national character, and to have become Eng lish property. This is cruel in execution; ab surd in argument. To refute it were fully, for to the understanding of a child it refutes itself. Bui it is llic reasoning of British jurists. It is the simple appltc ilion to the circumstances and powers of France, of the rule of the war of 17^(3. T am not the apologist of France and Spain 1 h ive no national p irtialities; no national at tach nents but to tny o.vn country. 1 shall ne ver Undertake to putifv or palliate the insults or injuries of any foieign power to that country which is dearer to me than life. If the voice of reason a id justice coni I be heard bv France an l Spain, they would say—3011 have dune wr ivgto make the injntice of your enemy to wards neutrals the measure of your own. If she chastises with whips, do not chastise with scor flions. Whether France would listbn to this angu.age, I know not. The most enormous in fractions of our rights, hitherto comtniltel In her, have been more in menace than in accom plishment. The alarm has been jintlv great, th t anticipation threatening; but the amount of actual injury small. But to Britain, what can Wcsay? If sve attempt to raise our voices, her minister has declared to i\Tr. Piiikncyth.it she •will not hear. The only reason she assigns for her recent orders of council i3, that France pro em Ison the same principles. It is only by the light of blazing temples, and amid the groans of women and children perishing in the ruins of the •nv'.tuaries of domestic habitation at C'oponha g vi, that wc can expect our.remonstrances a gamst this source of proceeding wilt Ik> heard. Iictns co*ne to the third and last of the cau ses of complaint, which are represented as so frivolous and s<» unfounded—-‘the unfortunate a fiii'of the Clicito-Mlce.” The orders of ad mini Berkley, under which this out-apfc was oo .omitted, h i vp boon .lisav^uvctd by his govern ment. General professions of a willingness to make reparation for it, have been lavished in profusion; and w.-* are now instructed to take these professions for m l- tonrr, to believe tbsun sir Sere, because bis Britannic majesty sent us a special envoy; an I to cast the odium iijkui our own government. I have already told yon, that I am not one of those who deem suspicion and (Jistni-t, in the highest order of political virtues. Baseless sus picion is, in my rsli natim, a rice, as pernici ous in the management of public afiirs, as it is fatal to flic happiness of a domestic life. When, therefore, the British ministers have du el ired their disposition* to mak“ ample repara tion for an injury of a most niricious character, committed by an oTicer of high rank, and, as they sav utterly without authority, Ishould most r'*a !il v believe them, were their professions not ,> > a? tv el v contradicted by facts yf more power ed clognenoe than wort?*. nave such tact* occurred { I will not again allude to the circumstances of Mr. HnseTs depar ture upon Ins mission at such a precise puiut of time, that his commission and the orders of coun cil oLl 1th November, might havu been signed with the same pen lull of ink. The subjects were not immediately connected with each oth er, and his majesty did not choose to associate distinct topics of uegociatiou. The attack up on tlie Chesapeake was disavowed; and ample reparation was withheld, Only because with Uic demand for satisfaction upou that injuiy, the American government had coupled a demand for the cessation of others; alike iu kind, but ol minor aggravation. Hut had reparation icai ly been intended, would it uot have been offered, not in vague and general terms, but iu precise and specific proposals? VVere any sucli made? None, liut it is said, Air. Aiouruc was restricted from ncgociaiiiigmpon that subject a part; and therefore Air. Rose was to be sent to Washington, charged with this single object; and without authority to treat upou, or even to discuss any other. Air. Rose arrives. The A • neriean government readily determine to treat upon the Chesapeake «//nir, separately from all others; but before Air. Rose sets his i'o .t on shore, in pursuance of a pretension made befoie by Mr. Canning, lie connects with the negocia tion, a subject fur more distinct from the butche ry ot the Chesapeake, .than the general impress ment oi our seamen. 1 mean the pixielanr.il ion, interdicting the liritish ships of war, the en trance of our harbors. I he great obstaclcwhich has alwa\s inter fered with the adjustment of our differences with Rritain, has been that she would not acquiesce I in the only principle upon which fair negotiation between independent nations can be cundumgd, the principle of reciprocity—that she refuse, the application to us of the claim which she as serts for herself. The forcible taking of men from an American vessel, was an essential pan of the outrage upon the Chesapeake. It wa.» the ostensible purpose for which that act of war unproclaimed, was committed. The Presi dent’s proclamation was a subsequent act, and was avowedly founded upou many similar ag gressions, of which that was only" the most a giavated. II then Britain could, with any colour of rea son, claim that the general question of impress ment should be laid out of the case altogether, she ought upon the principle of reciprocity, to have laid equally out of the case, the proclairia tion,a measure so easily separable from it, and iu its nature merely defensive. When therefore she made the repeal ot the proclamation an in dispcnsiblc preliminary to ail discussions upon the nature and extent of that reparation which she had olf'orod, she retuscd^io treat with us up on the footing of an independent power. She insisted upon an act ot seit-dcgradalion on our part,' before she would even tell us what re dress she would condescend to grant fora great and acknowledge.I wrong. This was a conditi on which she could not hut know to he inadmis sible, and is ot itsell proof nearly conclusive that her cabinet never intended to make, for that wrong, any reparation at all. {To be Continued.)

LATEST FKO.M EtNULA.ND. __ M e have received by the ship Uelawnrc, ar rived at this port, our files of Liverpool |«pers to 1 ho26tn, and London to the 25 th June, in clusive, from which we select the following: The Globe and Traveller, of June 25th, savs wo are assured from a high source that a loan to the government of Buenos Ayres will make its appearance in the money market in a few days; it is staled to be for one million sterling, t» per cent, interest per annum, to come out at a bout 85. The same paper says there are letters from iWudrid of the Uth ot .lime, from which wc learn that the most frightful aunichy con tinues to reign in that city. From the tub to the IJtli not less than 400 persons were arrest ed at night upon suspicions of treasonable intern lions: but the greater part were released on the morning of the last mentioned -day. The king was seriously indisposed in the early part of June, and was visited by several of the leading Eclcsiastics, hut he continued obs'inale in en couraging Die setvih-s in their resistance to the orders which the Minister under the compulsi on of the French Authorities, had given for the amelioration of the condition of the Constituti onalists, and the general imip.^vement ot the Provincial Governments. Ferdinand was closely guarded by a mixed bodv of French A; Spanish guards, the latter of w hom wer.-cho sen chietly fom the sons of the wealthy Clergy. It was stated sometime ago, in the newspa pers, that Mr. Mucrcady was about to quit the sock and buskin for the church; but if the fol lowing paragraph from the York Herald he true, it would appear that he lias chosen Un bar—“Granby inn, llarrowgate.— We un.lei stand that the purchaser of tins well established and excellent inn, which was lately advertised for sale ia the York Herald, is no other than the celebrated Mr. M icready, of theatrical no toriety.” On the 25th of June, the King of England prorogued the Parliament.—The following is his speech u,.on this occasion: My Tnvds anil (7e:il,/ mm: I Caun >t close this session of Parliament with out retmning to you my wannest acknowledge ments fir the diligence and assi luity with which you have aoplic I yourselves to the several ob jects ol public interest that have been submitted to your con-ider.ition. I deeply regret the painful necessity under which you have found yourselves of renewing fora further period, measures of extraordinary precaution in lr< 'and. 1 entirely approve of the enquiries which yon have thought proper Jo institute, as to (he na ture an I extent of the evils unhappily existing in the disturbed districts of that Country; and I have n > doubt that you will see the exne.lienev of pursuing your eiepliries in another session. I continue to receive from nil foreign powers the strongest assurances of tlicir friciilh dispovi tion towards this country, and you may relv on my endeavors being in . ai iably directej to the maintenance of General Ponce, and to the pro tection of the interests and the extension of the commerce of my subjects. Gentlemen of the llnusr nf Gmnmons: I thank yon for the supplies which you have provided for the service of the present year, ari l especially for the grants which you have so li berally made in furl Iterance of (he interests of religion, and iu support of the splendour of the Crown. I am fully sensible of the advantages which may he expected to arise from the relief you have aiTor«led to some of the must important branches of the national industry. •My T. trrii >ttvl Gentlemen, I have the greatest satisfaction in repeating I to you my congratulations upon the general in* : creasing prosperity of the country. I am persuaded that von will carry with you into your respective f'onnties the some spirit of Immunity which has distinguished your debates during the present session, anJ that you will cultivate among all classes of my subjects fliose ! feelings of content and of attachment to the i ('onstittilion, upon the continuance and diiF;si-j on of which under providence, mainly depends not only individual happiness, but the high sta | firm which this kingdom hulls among tho na l tions of the world. The Bank i>iroctors, at their meeting yes terday, came to the resolution of lending money I at the rale of 1 per cent, on Government Seen lities or on Bauk Stock; of which Dot ice Was inf mediately given in the usual manner at the stock Exchange. The advances on Govern-! ineut Securities will be to the amuuut of three1 fourths of the market value, and for a |*oriod of not less than one mouth, nor more than six months. Thu lowest sum to beJE»,000, but no limit is at present named of the extent to which advances ol this nature are to be made, that being a point served for the alter determination ol the bank directors. Some additional ad vantages are conceded to the holders of Bank Slock over the holders of Government Securi ties, by fixing the minimum lower, and by al lowing them to receive their advances, and to make the* repayments in whatever pro portion or at any time they may think proper, they bring charged only with the interest on the balance. The communication ol this.jiew arrangement at (he Stock Exchange raised consuls for the account from 85j to Di j, at which prices they closed. The hank having been shut for the holyday, no money bargains were transacted. - * TUESDAY MORNING, AUGUST 17, 1834. ADAMS vs. PICKERING. *1 he attention of our friends to the North, has put us in early possession of a pamphlet which has just issued from the press, relative to Mr. Adams' vote in favor of the hmbargo laid in 1808, to piotcrt oirr shipping fiom the sweeping plunder of the memora ble hritish “Orders in ( *»uncil;” which vote has lately bceu.j^pA- mart, assailed by that meekest and most churitablc of the ultra Federal Junta, Ti.no As most of our citizens have seen the pamphlet, Pickering vs. .ddams, in which die attack referred to, was so vigorously made, we need not here comment on its malice and virulence; but to give alt our reudr rs an opportunity of seeing the ease with wtiicii Jlr.,/rf«mi refutes and puts to shame this im(>oleut assault ol his ancient and hoa ry-headed colleague in the Senate of the U. States, we have to-day commenced the publication of tile pamphlet just received. I o those who like us were too young to notice, in its tiny, the letter to Harrison G. Otis, whi-.i forms the first and major part of this pamphlet, it will he gratifying to see the zeal and ability with which M*. Adams, more than sixteen years ago, asserted the tights and best interests of our country. The mild and dignified terms employed, in the close ol the pamphlet, to disarm the malice of his agi <t as sailant, cannot but enhance the estimation with which every new view of Mr. Adams' character in spires popular sentiment in his favor, THE NEW-YORK LEGISLATURE. The adjournment ol this body without making any change in the Electoral Law of that Stans which deprives the people of their right ol choosing Electors ol President and Vice-Picsideiit of the U niled States, is one of the most awful political pi:c iiomiua ol the limes ill which we li-.e. Nincieiu out ol twenty-four States, have in accordance with the intention ol the I'cdetal Constitution, vested in the people, the right of choosing those Electors; and an almost niiunimous vote of the lower House at the January session of the New-Ynrk I.egisla tuie, declared that the people ought tint to hi flc jn ived of this important right. The call of iho late extra session by the Governor of that State, was i made with a view to enable the Legislature, in tone t lor the approaching election, to invest them w ith tin,, sacred constitutional right—and yet, strange to say, they huve adjourned, niter a disorderiy and almost riotous session of five days, w ithout inakitv. any change in a law so justly obnoxious to the whole body of their constituents. In accounting lor this astonishing dereliction of public duty, some iij the Ncw'-Yoik papers n row out strong insinuations, not only of uniuir, but of most foul and infamous means ha\tug btvueirploy ed to produce it. Rut we forbear, ibr trie present, torcpc.it what they say. U e oi.iy ask, will the peo j pie of IVew-Y ork ircar this insolence of office, this | outrage ol “a little brief authority’’ delegated hy j theirisel ves ? Mould-tin; people of Virginia bear it? | An. I hey will soon demonstrate, that a les9 open outrage than this, is quite sufficient to rouse them into a proper assertion of their rights. Even tee C raw lord papers are compelled to ad mit, that, “as a great general principle, tire people ought to hare the choice of their Electors.” So says the last Enquirer. Indeed ? Pro-di-gi-nii;: ! FOIt TtIK COXSTITUTIO.VAt. WHIG. “ DO vV \, YV AN TON 8, DOYV N.” Speaking of Mr. Adams' friends, the Enquirer of the 10th inst. says, “ Way should they persevere ? Why excite divisions and contests when mry exer tion is unavailing?" This really is very pleasant, and reminds me very forcibly of a little quotation introduced hy Jack Randolph Inst winter in his con gressional re.iarks on the dictatorial ianguage used Iry the advocates of the J arid : “ Down, wantons, down, said the Cook, trying to subdue the elastic resistance of the cels he. wasfaying. “ Down, wan tuns, down pray he quiet, and submit with a good grace to your dr^.y. \ nd does the Enquirer tnkr os for a parcel itnrrls, that he thinks he may suc cessfully exercise this cook-like coii'ronl ovi r us ? 1 can tell him, it he does, he is confoundedly mista ken. So far from being repressed hy his soothing expostulations, the people are-just rousing with in dignation at the insolent attempt which has been made to transfer their votes in a lump and without consulting them, to the favorite of a Caucus a rra nge ment. In th*- political history of our country, there has been no parallel to this bold, determined, and persevering attempt of the Caucus < 'lliefs to carry ; their point without any the least regard to the sen timents or wishes of tire people. Although the Con stitution has in the plainest terms reserved to the people exclusively, the important right of choosing themselves, their Electors of President and Vice President, yet we find a few “ choice spirits” in Con gress, without any instruction nr direct authority from thrir constituents, without the sanction oi • countenance of a majority of the Republican mem bers of their own burly, resolved and obstinately bent on dictating to the people their own selection of an individual, as the choice of the nation. And what is more surprising, and mines nearer home to on.-selves particularly, we find a majority of the last V irginiu Assembly, imitating and following up this prr.postrrous effort to wrest from the people, one of their most sacred rights and invaluable pri vileges, and impose upon them the hasty selection of « few eon federate “ Chiefs,” (as they seem to think themselves,) for the People's choice. It will not do, Mis Enquirer, it will not do. If such a proceeding has obtained your sanction, it li is not gained the approbation of your readers. All your address, nil your management in keeping as much as possible in the bark ground, the resolute movements of the people in favor of Mr. Adams,1 and of their own rights, will very little longer avail to hide the truth, or keep the “ wantons dineii.” In vain you atP-ct surprise at the result of the Lynch burg meeting. In vain you *• presume the paucity" of the numbers that attended If'eslntorrland meet ing. Publish their luminous and eloquent, their decorous and «tanly Address, Mr. Enquirer, and let the public presume for themselves. They will do so, rely upon it. Not nil the efforts of Caucus Chiefs and Caucus papers, will avail to keep the “ wantons, down.” AGRICOLA. I Iks h ico, August 14. Irish Linens, Umbrellas, Pork S>-c.

Drawing materials for each scholar, will be furnished at wholesale cash prices. In making these offers, Mrs. G. is aware, that ex pectations may he raised in regard to what she may he "able to do fin her pupils, which cannot, in all rases, be realized.

Lut where the previous course-of instiaction lias been judicious—where there is a moderate share of natural talent, and a bovc all, an earnest, steadfast desire to learn, (with out which, little or nothing can he done hy any teacher whatever,) she feels warranted by her past experience, in giving the assurance, that ri.e/t scho lars under the constant care, and vigilant supervi sion of her friend, her two daughters, and h.nsclf, will attain a degree of improvement fully proporti oned to the time allowed hy their parents and gunril 1 ians for their education.
