Domestic Colonial Trade rl&xtr net of a letter from Quebec: "We are all in high spirits here, and our local quarrels will be forgotten in the rich harvest of our trade and com merce now opening to us. Thanks to your worthy President, Mr. Adams, we are reaping the ad vantages of his preference for ne gotiation, for the order in coun cil closing the West India trade to ships of the United States is operating every way in our favor. We seriously think of presenting Mr. Adams with a service of plate; he has done more for the Canada trade than any of his pre decessors." Note. No doubt, and we are to be the sufferers.

With respect to the Woollen Bill, which seems to have excited so much anger a mong the Opposition, we are free to declare that if the Administra tion had not shown a disposition to attend to the prayers of the pe titioners on the subject, they would not have merited the con fidence of the. nation. Having done so, could they be diverted from that proper course by vitu peration and opposition, they would still less deserve it. The above paragraph is extracted from the National Journal, the official Ad ministration paper Is this a prelude to introducing Mr. Adams to the manufac turing interest as their decided protect or?
