^ What then were the real causes of the war ? I answer — 1. To aid the cause of France. 2. To depress New-England, and de- stroy her Commerce. No man in his senses can doubt that there is a secret understanding between the Govemment of this country and that of France. By a series of naval victories un- exampled in history, Great Britain liad at- tained the sovereignty of the ocean. Her insular situation protected her from the ar- mies of France. She was only vulnerable in her commerce. The Cors...ican usurper, with some sagacity, determined to diminish her power, by restricting her trade. The manufactures of Great Britain were in con- sequence, excluded from all the ports of the continent. - Still all this availed him nothing while the United States were per- mitted to obtain their supplies at the niar- kets of this hated nation. The United States were therefore persuaded to lay an. Embargo ; and they were publicly congrat- ulated'by. The French Emperor upon having thus united with him in his " continental system.
