Sept. 29, 1818 w put hich the American government nav< jj Knsland will be likely to follow Mr. •t noon their M* Naviiialion actA\ K lie,*. opinion for two reasons ; he is those uartiallv free ports will not ac* ouire such a commercial superiority os d. over Quebec, as wa-at iir«t snpj Which of the two nations will eventu¬ ally gain or lose t.ho most, by the »y«- 1 t?m of reciprocal exclusions abient to be enforced, is a question to be decided by the experiment. There Is little doubt, that it will, for a lime, press] hard upon some parts oi the West In- j dies. But Colonies must submit to Buch restrictions as are essentia! to the prosperity of their mother country. The monopoly of the Colonial trad? is a vital principle of the British naviga¬ tion laws*and has been steadily main- tained Tor ages. Nor is it peculiar to the navigation lav\s of Great Britain. France and Spain practised not exact¬ ly the same, but a similar system of Colonial monopoly indeed it was a| opted by the general con¬ sent of all the European powers, in re¬ lation to their respective possessions in America. France has lost that monop¬ oly, by losing her Colonies. The Spa¬ nish Provinces are struggling for eman¬ cipation ; and all the commercial world are interested to wish them success, fur the sake of enjoying a Ire.e trade with them. It is undoubtedly an im¬ portant object of policy with the United States to coerce Great Britain to open to them the trade of her Colonies ; and this is now attempted by a law introdu¬ ced professedly for the purpose of Counteracting the British Colonial ex¬ clusion. It passed both Houses of Congress almost unanimously at th" last Session, and seems to be popu ar vith the two great political parties in the United States. In that respect, it uUCers from the Embargo and other measures of restriction, attempted a few years ago, which were opposed and their execution thwarted by the whM? Fed. 1 al party throughout the nation. * ke recent instructions from the Trea¬ sury department indicate a fttenaioa-1 j their political leader: and, from their i local situation, they are mere immedi- intelv iutere^t"d in the Fisheries, than the Democrats of the Southern and i Western Slates. The point was agi¬ tated in the negociations of the Treaty of Ghent ; but, with the subject of inipr»-ssment and some others, left un¬ settled. The American Administra¬ tion, of course, will net relinquish their claim, although, it is believed, they will endeavor to avoid a conflict res¬ pecting it. Both ijovernments, indeed, appear to be sincerely disposed to maintain a good understanding. L ng may it continue without interruption. \.'ft.
