IT enn scarcely have escaped the notice of
oiiV rfeaderS, that, notwithstanding the loud
and incessant dcsunchiUons of the adminis
' tralioft, for ; not adequately protecting the
commerce of the country, meaaures have
no sooner, been taken with this view, than
tber have met with the ridicule and condem
nation ofthoe who were previously themont
cliinorou for them.
; .Some tinae since, it was determined by the
aaminiitration to nuWe an experiment of thq
effi;:tcy of Gun-lioats."' The experience of
older nations had sshcvn them to be of much
flie, a;J circumstances peculiarly applicable
to the United Slatea seemed to recoinmia.id
theih'to us. A sm .ll appropriation was ac
cordingly maJc for this purpose, and a num
ber of tjun-bouts h i It on approved models.
The professed friends of Commerce aivd
ttvoivcd enemies of the adniinistrution, de
nounced the measure as weak and ridiculous.
Tuey denied the cficacy of (;un-boats,'and ri
diculed the plan on whicfi they were built.
The admini.tration on their part .made no
boasts. They acknowledged that they were
nukinp- an experiment, which might dWip-
point their hopes. This, it might have been
expected, would have Lten fell by their oppo
nents as a generous appeal lo their candor.
It mip;ht have been presumed that before the
experiment 'was made,, thty'would not have
'impeached the motives in whichil originated.
It might Jiave been presumed that they
would haye'suspended their "decision, or at
least withlK'Id their clamours for a few month's,
that a fair opportunity-miht tie afforded to
the friends of the measure to tliclose their
plan. No such forbeara' e wav howecr,
manifested. Unqualified tondemnatit.n and
arcasm overwhelmed the r eaM;re and us
projectors. The exclusive fuendt of com
merce, jealous, as it were, of receiving tiny
effectual protection from those whom thr-r
prejudices had converted into en in'm. i.u,'l
see in the measure nothing but a svill 1 i. -tihty
to commerce, a dclib:rate pu.-po-c,
derthe pretext of aidinj, tocra.np ; .cr
ctal cnierprisei and to prevetit my ri: tiod

Of the untoward tpirit of the enemie of
the administration, viehava) another not lest
contpieuoua pmof. In consequence, cf the
rkpiedatlont' committed on our trade, and
the inanht and outtci offered lo, or near
our hjrbort, and of the lou-1 cpmplaintt of
our tif rchants, several armed vessels have
bred stMioaed n the cast. Hut no sooner
his this nx sturc UacnLakrn, than they who
m-rst ttrenwusly urged it, they are first to de
mand iuwf. Whi', it isrt'j'iitchcan tll
fr erTcrt' It Uarknowtedrrd that it mir
li f rc?:nt the ttstcli of btlligtrintposrer 1 from
actually enttr'ng, our harbort, &n there
committing outrage and depredation ;; but
what security docs it afford against the cap
ture of our merchantmen 'a marine league
beyond the , shore and within sight of our
ports . Do either the laws of nations, or our
treaty stipulations authorise oof opposing, ,
under these circumstance's,'-Resistance i to the
right bf search, or to the sending ouc resseU
into the ports' of the belligerent nations for
adjudications? " Mut not this indignity and
injustice be submitted to even in the face of a
force equal to its prevention ? Such is the
language of cameleon casuists, who, in the
extensive wardrope of party prejudfee, ... can
find, a covering fit for any purpose" ; who
can, with perfect nonchalance condemn in
one character what they approve in another,
and the first to reprobate what they were the
first to recommend. "
llecause this measure was not at once un
dertaken, the administration was denounced ;
and now it is adopted its futility is attempted
to be exposed. Will these pentlenien have
the goodness to recollect that it was not, per
haps, at first adopted for the very obvious
reasons' they-'themselves now urge, Will
they recollefct that until lately the administra
tion were in good faith bound to observe the
provisions of a treaty made by their political
opponents with Great-Britain, from whose
ships of war we havi: suffered the most exten
sive spoliation ; and that this treaty provides
" '1 hat in all caseb where vessels shall be
captured or detained on just swfcpicibn of ha- '
ving on board enemy 's property, or of carry
ing to the enemy any of the articles which
are contraband of war ; the said vessel shall
be brought lo the nearest or rn6t convenient
port; and if any property of afn enemy, shall
be found on Ujui d such vessel, that part only
which belongs to the enemy hall be prize,
and ihe vtss-jl shU be at liberty to'proceed
with the remainder without" inipedin.cnt.T .
And it is agreed, . that all proper measures
shall be taken to prevent delay, in deciding
the cases of ships or cargoes to brought in
for adjudication ; and in the payment of re
covery of any iadcmnification, adjudged or
agreed to be paid to the mastcrt or owncraof
tuch ships." Art. IT
The 18th article, after er.umeMting such
contraband articles at are declared to be just
objects of confiscation, proceeds as follow :
And. whereas the difficulty of agreeing
on the prcciecases in which alone provisions
and other articles not gent rally contraband
may be regarded as such, renders it expedi
ent to proHe againbUhe inconvenience and
misunderstanding which might thence arise.
It is further agreed that whenever any such
article so becoming contraband, according to
the existing laws' of nations, shall for that
reason be tuaed, the same shall not be con
fiscated, but the owners thereof shall be
speedily and completely indemnified ; and
the ciip;or, or in their default, the govern
ruetit li-.Wvr whose authority they act, shall
;.' b masters or owners of such vessels,
'..! v due of all such artidts, with area
Mil... :. . trc.intile profit thereon, together
v. it I. i:c freight, and .dso demurrage inci
dent to Mich detention."
By ihe 2 2d article, It is expressly stipu
la'ed that nrithcr of the s lid contracting par
t'.iu m ,i authorikti any dcts of reprisal against
tr.p o.her. oncoinpTamt 01 injiuics or. dama

We have not the Trench treaty at ptete nt
before utj but it provision 1, on the. point
uadcr contlderttloo, are not mitetitllj a
rittt frew tho?e,already recited.
Here then art three treaties, br two of
which the trove anment art ttiil bound, and by
one of which the were lound until lately
all of ntkh were nr gtxiaud by a federal , ad
ministration, and ratified by a federal senate.
" If the provision are injurious or "nnjust,
avfirk uvt tn LlavTk lite, r.r1rnliul. ? TTaiu-um
.niiayiuci, te.ia ene ticair uuiy 01 itie present -"administration
to observe thern. That there
is great injustice, practised in carrying' then
into effect, cannot admit of a doubt. ' That'
i'tjs the duty of the gOTernment to remon
strate again it i equally clear. That they
': have, remonstrated is extremely probable.
Whether their remonstrances will put an end
to the evil is uncertain. Should they Jajl in -doing
this it rest with the legislature to ap- n .
ply the remedy. The demand of justice and
its refusal, necessarily, according to the theo
ry of bur government, transfers all ulterior
power to the legislature. .With them are de
posited the revenue and tlie armed force of ,.
the nation, as well as the regulation of trade, !
and with them it must, rest to decide whether
the case is of such a nature as to demand an
'appeal to arms, er a restrained or irtlerdictod
intercourse And should auch a case occur,
can it be doubted that those who- assume to , .
themselves all the patriotism oi" the country,
should the friends of the administration be
remiss in their duty, will fail to brings, forward
such measures as aninjured and insulted na
tion are called upon to pursue. Then the
nation will be able to determine whether the
present administration 'are really averse to
the protection of commerce or to the vigo
rous redress of violated rights. Shbuld they
refuse to take the necessary measures, then,
and then only will there be reason to com
plain, There are two important considerations
which on this as well as other topics, pre not
duly attended to. The first arises from the
abandonment by the federalists cf the princi
ple that free ships make free goods, which
had'been previously adopted in several trea
ties." While this, principle-' was uniformly
asserted by us to be just, and while we refu
sed in any solemn stipulation tosui render it,
we stood upon high ground. We were un
der no obligation to allow our vessels to be
aearched, orsent to adjudication, under the
pretext of having enemy's goods on board.
We remained free, in case the hostile princi
ple vr;re asserted, to oppose force to force
without violating any moral obligation.
The other consideration arises from con
founding the powers and duties of distinct,
departments of our government. . Because
the President has high and extensive powers,
it is often either ignorantly or perversely in
terred that he has all power, liut so differ
ent is the theory of the government, that the
very reason why he . is denied borne great
powers is his being possessed of others. -Thus,
though it is made his duty to exectte
all, he is prohibited from Piakirg any laws ; .
and though it is hit duty to reiacte v ith fo
reign nations, he is prohibited from using the
national force aeainst them without the ex
press pcrnrnaion of cotigrsss. It is the great,
thepre-ermiie'-.ily distinctive feature of our
system, that the n.ui. n, which it to experi
ence the complicated t vilt of war, it likewise
the sole judge of its propriety.
Suppose then the executive, by overtep
ping lii . constitutional powers, by consulting
hi own indignant feeling at wrongs com
mitted against the American naticn, should,
by haty measures, snatch from congress,'
their grest prerogative of declaring war,
would not those, who are now the most cla
. moroutfor energetic measures, be the firt
to institute an impeachment t Would not
the cry of usurpation resound through' the
land?
