Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Mr. Madison´s War After the following pages were pat to press, most interesting information n received from Europe, which, as it Serves to illustrate, and confirm the opinions of the writer, as it will put to the test the sincerity of our administration, an it will enable us to decide, whether the real object of the present war is to protect the commercial rights and interests of the United States, or to promote the views of France, and in systematic co-operation with her; and as this intelligence more especially and distinctly proves, that the Berlin and Milan decrees were not repealed at the time when they were professed to be, but that their repeal, if it has yet taken effect, w as only the result of our "common measures adopted against the common enemy," as M. Turreau justly characterised them, we trust we shall be excused for devoting a few page* to the examination of this recent intelligence and of its hearing upon the existing situation and policy of the United States. Sometime in the month of May lost (1812) Bonaparte published a decree purporting to bear date April 28, 1811, in which reciting, as its sole cause, that "Congress had by their act of March 2, 1811, declared that British ships and merchandise should be interdicted an entry into the ports of the U. States," and reciting further, "that the aforesaid law of Congress is an act of resistance to the British Orders in Council," he proceeds to decree, that u the Berlin and Milan Decrees are definitively (from the first of November last) considered as no longer in force as far at respects American vessels."
