FROM THE RICHMOND ENQUIRER..
To the freeholders of Charlotte ,Buck
. ingham, Prince Edward, and Cum-
. berland.
Mr Friends For such indeed you
have proved yourselves to be through
good and through evil report I throw
myself on your indulgence, to which 1
have never yet appealed in vain. It is
now- just live years since the state of
my health reluctantly compelled me
to resist your solicitations (backedjbv
my own wishes') to offer juy services -to
your ffratires. The recurrence of
a similar calamity obliss me to re
tire, tor a while, from the field, of du
ty, and if; I shall find it impracticable
to return by December next, my re
signati r already written)' will be ten
dered to the Governor, in time to pre
vent your being unrepresented in tlx
next session .of - Congress. It would
be offered now, but that the approach
ing ;ieasiu;j wonid 'render a re-election
ijugutory as to present purposes.
The state of mv affairs fas is well
known to some of you), require mv
presence: at home but self preserva
tion imperiously enjoins a suspension
of all business whhtsoever ; and in
deed, with all my deficiencies for the
J station in which your partiality has
been pleased to place me, I havenev
er postponed your interests to my own
Should die mild climate of France
and the chance of air restore my
health, you will ajzain find me a can
didate for your independent suil'rage,
at the next election, (1823.)
. I have an especial desire to be in
that Coniess which will decide (prob
ably by indirection) the character of
the Executive government of the con
federation for at least four years per
haps forever : since now for ihe first
tiiTe since the institution of this gov
ernment, we have presented to the
people thss army candidate for the
Presidency' in the person of him vho
judging, from present appearances will
receive the support of the Bank 'of
fhe United States also, ihis is an
union of purse and sword with a ven
ge'aace one which even. the. sagacity
of Patrick Henry never anticipated,
in this shape at least. Let the people
lo'jk to it ; or they are lost forever. -r
Thy will fall into that trulf which un
der the artificial military and paper
systems of Europe, divides Dives from
Lazarus, and grows daily and hourly
l)r ader, deeper and more appalling -To
this state of things, we are rapidly
approaching under an administration,
the head of Tvhich sits an incubus up
on the state, while the lieutenants of
this new ma vor of the palace are al
ready contending for the . succession,
and their retainers and adherentsTare:
with difficulty kept from coming "to
blows, even on the floor of Congress.
We .are arrived at that pitch of de
generacy when the mere lust of pow
er, the retention of place and patron
aqe,. can prevail not only over every..
consideration of public duty, but stifle
the suggestions of personal honor
which even the ministers oAhe decay
ed governments of Europe have not
yet learnt entirely to disregard.
hould God spare me, you shall be
informed how it has come to pass
hat, after settling the Florida ques
tion at the expense of a vast sacrifice
ol territory 4 south of So and a hall
of North latitude;" we are yet em-
hi oiled i h Sfain an ), in passing,
it may as well be recollected that the
command of the Red River and the
Arkansaw (the gates of New Orleabs)
will have to be contested not with the
imbecile and puny rovernment ot
nam. but with a voun and rising
and therefore ambitious Republic.
Should it be however His Will
that we never meet again be that
will done on Earth as it is in Heaven
Amen.

v Ihe following letter from Havana
announces, as will , be seen, a most
important measure which is about to
be taken in regard to the commerce
of that Island it is no other than the
establishment in that port of, a free
system of 'enterpot?' for all tlie com
modities of the world AT. Y. Arncr
HAVANA, MARCH 2, 1822.
" Sir: We have the satisfaction of
announcing to you that the measure
which has been some time in contem-
pla;tion, wdl now undoubtedly be car-
riedmto effect, having received the
sanction of the Cortes in Spain, and
of all ihp niitlmritii hprt ii Th .t
of all the authorities here, viz : That
of establishing in this place for a de
I'cription, with the liberty of re-expor
tation to any quarter, and with every,
flag, on the payment of one per cent.'
on import, and one per cent, on ex
port only. The teini of such deposit
will be any period under twelve
months and a day.
" We anticipate the greatest benefit
from such an arrangement, as well
with regard to the already languishing
commerce of this Island, as to our
relations with other countries. The
situation of this port, its superior har
bour in all seasons, anjd the tranquili
ty, in a political point
of view, which
it continues fo enjoy, amid the storms
which agitate the surromding colonies,
together, give it a decided preference
over every other near us, whilst the
immense exports from life Island ena
ble us. to furnish returns, not only for
the imports of infernal consumption,
but also for such as may now be introi
duced for the supplies of all our neigh
bours. 44 Already' the average yearly crops
of sugar exceed 300,000 boxes !of as
sorted, exclusive of iMuscovadoj vvbicli
is considerable ; and of coffi e 30 mil
lions lbs. Cotton is also raised but
not; abundantly, and the tohacco of
this island, the cultivation of which
increases annually, forms already an
important article in qu-Uity and quan
tity. The value' of these my amount
to tvyelve or fifteen millions ; and
whtn weidd the logwood from Cam
peachv, cOchineal, indigo, baikJsar-
saparella, and other products of the
Mioe, most generally to be found
here, the total value. of exports from
thi "place ffiay be "'calculate d to ex
ceed twelve millions of dollars.
"Of this value a small part only
has been met by that of. the imports
for the consumption of .the island :
hence the necessity of remittances of
specie to this quarter, of which sever
al millions have Tieen-introduced. cJui-
ing the last shipping season. Under
the contemplated arrangement, the
facility of supplies of goods at prices
free of duty, the situation of the port,
and the similitude of , customs, man
ners, and language, must draw to this
place purchasers from every part of
the western continent ; and. on. the
dthr hand, an immense field will be
opened for provisions and India goods
Iroiu the United Mates, sheetings from
Russia, German linens of every des
cription, the cotton goods of Glasgow
& Manchester, in all their varieties ;
crockery,' glass-ware, iron, 'copper,
&c. ; and, lastly, the linens ; nd fancy
godds of Dutch and r rench manufac
ture; in a word, all the usual articles
of imports, but in quantities consider
ably greater. Such a mart will', offer
the most advantageous prices foi
goods arid from the concurtence of
purchaVers, while the produce of tlie
iMaine will be obtained at prices very
little above those in the original ports,
by which means a voyage can be ter
minated here to every advantage,
without jthe hazards to which the
rieighboiing ports are subjected."-.

SHAMEFUL.
Anxious that the good feelings now ,
existing between cur British neighbors
and us should be perpetuated, we ckn
not but regret to learn what is related
in the following article, namely, that
the Ameiican commerce with Bermu
da has lately been subjected to ihelj
most wanton and unjustifiable system 1 ,
jof sequestration by a'British govern
i ment vessel stationed at Bermuda a
system, which, if the facts are correct
ly stated, is very little .better than
down right buccaneering. The Cap
tain of tjie vessel is stated t6 be cnuti
tenanced and advised by the excel
lent Governor Lumley, of whom hon
orable mention hath been aforetime
made in ibis paver and that accounts
A. for it. It
