-OtJir XfrAXRS WITH GREAT-BRITAnr.
2d. .Whjt is the probable amount
of British-manufactures we should
import in one year ? And riat the
means of paying for them ?
Of tfie future, we may, in eome
measure, judge hv the.pajt. ( Our im
rx.rts into the United States, of Bri
tish manufacture and produce, during
thekyer 1805 and 180?, averaged'
about fJtU'Pve millions of dollars per
annum. From"! the present scarcity
of. goods in our cruntry, and (he
wretched," impoverished situation of
the . manufacturers in Great-Britain,
we may, reasdnibly conclude thatour
imrxrtatinnsthe rsytar, would a
nrunt to aiam at leait equalto 1806.
If our merchants did not order ex.
ttiwirely, fJey would he shipped by.
mvicufaaurers who may have saved
the wrccr ortheir fortunes; or by speV
euhiors? in the hcyts of enriching
themselves. , Tp consequence of which
our markers would becoratoverload
ed and glutted, and those goods must
be sold at a sacrifice to enable the im
porter to meet his engagrments withJ
xne Dnusn mercnant. this loss to
the American merihant would not
, only be ctrtain, but it wduld be ac
crmpanied withanother ; an adva'bec

it did not amount to thirty milUons of

hermerchants. prt ,in a m6re'mtfl
ligiblc language, we purchased of G,
Britain, in 1807 Efty-fiye millions of
dollar in her manufacturer goods,
and. sold her thirty millions of our
pr'Qrj'uce.'Durinj; the same period
wc purrftajed brFraooe, Spain Hoi
land. Sec. ten -millions, (or any other
given sum) of their goods d sold
them, .thirt)-five 'millions of our.
The balance clue us, we carried or re
mitted to ngland, to pay the debt
we owed to her. Thus c-ur accounts
were liquidated wih all EurQpe; with
out drawing from the United -States
one specie dollar. But these times
have' passed away and others have
come. As heretofore, we fell indebt
to' G. JB inin thirty millions of dol
lars in one vear ; but the continent of
.Europe is impoverished, and unable
to purchase our raw materials. The
V f " wrr J .
products ox tne wesnnaics arc ex
cluded, by the most rigorous edicts,
from their territories. ' From this
quarter, therefore, we can no longer
receive any portion of the means of
paying our British debtv Francc
will exchange commodities with us ;
but contrary to our former system,
she insists upon our taking a large
proportion 01 our pay, ior anynmg
she receives from ns in the products
of her industry. Thus we arc driven
to the necessity in 1 812, of paying the
balance of our Bcitish debts, say thirty
millions of dollars, in specie, because
the commercial relations of the World
are so far changed, that we can no
longer -find a trade in Europe, that
will bajance our account with 'Great-Britain.-
What then are weVto ap
prehend from an .unrestricted' inter
course with her ? We answer that
our cotton, our tobacco, our Vice, our
lumber, our everything, would.be
sacrificed in her markets ; and that
the United States would be drained
of their specie! capital, already very
small, in proportion to their bank pa
per. If we ah6uld fall hi debt tocher
thirty millions of dollars, all the gold
and silver of bur country, employed
as a circulating medium (if we may
be permitted to use that phrase when
applied to sfecte) would not pay one
half the amount.
Even at the present moment, when
exchange is Etteen per cent, under
par, it it a very bad calculation to pur
chase bills in preference to remitting
specie; Because the extreme scarci
ty of, the precious metals in Great
Britain is such, that its value has en
hanced nearly thirty per cent. It is
true, the celebrated bullion committee,
appointed by. the house cf cpmtnons,
and whose report was printed in June
18 16, deny that this advance on spe
cie arises from its scarcity j but as
cribe it to the large emission of paper
by the bank, which they are notboun
to redeern in gold ; or silver.' The
cause pf; this enhanced value 00 bul
lion we shall not discuss. It is suffi
cient for us that,we know the fact -
