If the citizens of the United States Ihonld permit the privateers of I lie French (republic to lie in ain- Ijiiih in their ports, and I'nlly out at. pleasure to way-lay the veliels we have before invited to ourfhores, ro put chafe the prodixft of our foil. From whence are the benefits which we- were led to expeifi from ourfuc eefsful llriiggle in war, the attain ment of our independence, and our commercial treaties with the powers ot Ktirope to lie derived ? If the United States are to surrender their Commercial connexions wit h Britain, Ireland, Rnffia, PrulTia, Spain, For. mgal, Holland and Savoy, do they exjiedt to find a market for tlifir produce in France—iubjei'ted as il inuft be to the reprisals of the ci'hi zers armed againlt her? If an an swer can be given to tliefe quelli""s, let the partizans for war (for fueh are our declaimers, for the oblerv atice of treaties, notwithstanding their di'fguife) give them, and satis fy the manufacturer, merchant, and the farmer, who deprecate the hor rors of war. NEW-YORK, August 9. ' ajll the Briiitfi ports in the Weft- 1 Indies are open for American ves sels to carry all kinds of provisions there. Salt provisions particularly are 111 uth wanted, and prices very high—Beef from 6 to 71. sterling per barrel.— Pork 8 and 91, ditto per ditto.
