 During the whole progress of ihis m enterprise, t Is possible that neilherihsl riean crew originally enlisted. northeal ger crew put on board in the Brazlaa are aware of the nature of the fovsgs yet it is on these principally, ignoau. innocent, that the penalties of the law ! illcted while the guilty contriyers, itl terers, brokers, owners, andmasteB-is all who are most deeply eoncenedil crime and its rewards, for the most at cape unpunished.

 twill be seen fom the examinaioBv have recently taken place at Rio, lhalt; jects of her Britannic Majesty, as wels own citizens, are deeply implicated ii inhuman traffic. British factors and d while they supply Africa with Brirh a in exchange for slaves, are chiefly ishl tai in the abuse of the American fag; the suggestions contained ill the eletsrd Wise, (whose judicious and zealom 4 in the matter cannot be loo highly cona ed.) addressed to Mir. Hamilton. the N envoy, as to the best mode of suPa the evil, deserve your most dellbeafl sideration, as they will receive, doHS that of the British government.

 ltis also worthy of considerah0nFl!! any other measures than those nov ls are necessary 10 give greater elscafy just and humane policy of our laws Z already provide for the restoration ' of slaves captured at sea by Amen'a1'' CTS, From time 10 time provision 1a' made by this government for then 'a' ble support and maintenance durnsih period after their restoration. and as' to be regretted that this liberal PaH not been adopted by Great Bfllan \ it seems to me, that the policy lthsal'' is calculated rather to perpetnateinang press the trade, by enllstlng very aFs rests in it's favor. Merchants and cap furnish the means for carrying Il 0A' factures for which the negroes are wa are the products of her worR-slps uI slaves, when captured, instead ol r. z, turned back to their homes, are lfals'l her colonial possessions in the "s'' s., and made the means of swelling 'ne :, of her products, by a system ol aEr, '.r.. ship for term of years, and me Olus' .n, crew who capture the vessel re'sn' whole number of slaves so many ;. 7 sterling per capita, by way ol D0u's, ', 7,

 It must be obvious, that whlle z. l''', !, interests are enlisted in favor ol 's ,.,I ance, it will be difficult, if not llnpg',tl ,a < suppress the nefarious traffic. anu .ir results would be, in effect, but cOa,, .s,, of the slave trade of another anu | iTrI Gpt form; for it can be but mater o' ;. @ ! renee with the African, wheine' from his country and trahsporleu .sase ~
