View original DECLARATION.
THE earnest endeavours of the Prince Regent to pre-
serve the youre! of peace and amity with the United
States of America \having unfortunately failed, His Royal
Highness, Acting in the name and on the behalf of His
Majesty, deems it proper publicly to declare the causes,
and origin of the war, in which the Government of the
United States has compelled Him to engage. !
No desire of conquest, or other ordinary motive of ag~
gression has been, or can be with any colour of reason,
in this case, imputed to Great Britain: That her commer.
ciai interests were on the side of peace, if war could have
been avoided, without the sacrifice of her maritime rights,
or without au injurious submission toe rance, is & truth
which the American Government will not deny.
His Royal Highness does nut however mean to rest on
the favourable presumption, to which He is entitled. He
is prepared by an exposition of tie circumstances which
have I-d to the present war, to show that Great Britain
has throughout ac ed tewards the United States of Ameri.
ca, with a spirit ol amity, lorbearance, and conciliation ;
and to demonstrate the sadiussible nacure of those preten.
sions, which have at length unhappily involved the two
countries in war,
It is well known to the werld, that it has been the in.
variable Objec: of the Kuler of Beance, to destroy the
power and independence of the British ssaipire, as the chiet
Obstacle to the accom) lishment of his ambitious designs,
He first contemplated the possibility of assembling such
a naval forcein the Channel as, comuined with a iume.
rous jlouila, should enable him to disembark in Inglaud
anariny sutficient,-in his conce,; Gon, to sabjugate this
country ; and throsgh the congucst of Great Britain he
hoped fo realize his project of oniversal empire.
Iv theadoption of au cularged # ¢ provident system of
Toferett defence, and by ‘se valour ot ins Siajesty’s fleets
ane. ‘hs dosign was entire y lrustraied; and the
-ce of France, affer the most sigaal deteats, was
Comm ed to retice from the ocean,
An attem, t was then made to eliectuate the sume pur.
pose by ovher means; a System was brought forward, by
which the Ru'er of France hoped to anvinilate the com.
nierce of Groat Britain, to shake her public Credit, and to
destroy he: | svenue; to render useless her maritime Su-
periority, ai ¢ so to avail himself of his continental ascen.
dancy, ast « ustitute himself in a great measure the arbi-
ter of tue occun, notwithstanding the destruction of his
fleets.
With this view, by the Deeree of Berlin, followed by
thatof Milan, ho declared the British territories to be ina
state of Liuckade; and that all Commerce, or even corres.
pondcnee with Great Britain was prohibited. Ile decreed:
that every vessel ard cargo, W hich had entered, or was
found proceeding toa british yuct, or which, under any

on v,on the previous conduct of lis Majesty's Govern.
ment,
Under circumstances of unparalleled provocation, Ilis
Majesty had abstained from any measure, which the ordi.
nary rules of the Law of Nations did not fully warrant,
Never was the maritime superiority of a Beiligerent: over
his cnuemy, more complete avd decided, Never was the
opposite Belligeren: sv formidably dangerous ia ois power,
and in his policy to the liberties of ail other uations.
France had already trampled so openly and systematical'y
ou the most sacred rights of Neutral Powers, as mig
well have justilied the placing her out of the pale of civ.
lized nations. Yet in this extreme case, Great Briiai
had so wsed her naval ascendancy, that her cuemy could
find no just cause of complaint: and in order to give to
these lawless decrees the appearauce of retaliation, th.
Ruiter of France was obliged (o advance principles of nar.
time law unsanctioned by any other authority, than his
own arbitrary will.
The pretexts for these Decrees were, first, that Great
Britain had exercised the rights of war against private
persons, their ships and goods ; as if the only object of.
legitimate hostility on the ocean were the public property
of a State, or asif the Edicts, aud the Courts of France
itself had not at all times enforced this right with peculiar
rigour secondly, that the British orders of blockade, in-
stead of being confined to fortified towns, had, as France
asserted, been unlawfully extended to commercial towns
and ports, and to the mouths of rivers ; and thirdly, that
they had been appled to places, and to cuasts, which nei.
ther were, nor could be actually blockaded. ‘The last of
these charges is not founded on fact, whilst the others, even
by the admission of the American Government, are utter.
Jy groundless in point of law.
Against these Decrees, His Majesty protested and ap-
pealed ; He called upon the United States to assert their
own rights, and to vindicate their independence, thus
menaced and attacked ; and as France had declared ; that
she would confiscate every vessel, which should touch in
Great Britain, ar be visited by British ships of war, His
Majesty, having previously issued the Order of January
1807, as an act of mitigated retaliation, was at length
compelled, by the persevering violence of the enemy, and
the continued acquiescence of Neutral Powers, to revisit,
View original
upon France, in amore effectual manner, the measure of
her own injustice; by declaring, in an Order in Council,
bearing date the 11th of November 1807, that no neutral
vessel should proceed to France or to any of the countries
from which, in obedience to the dictates of france, British
c mmerce was excluded, without first tuuching at a port
in Great Britain, or her dependencics. At the same time
His Majesty intimated His readiness to repeal the Orders
in Council, whenever France should rescind her Decrees,
and return tothe accustomed principles of maritime war-
fare ; and at a subsequent period, as a proof of His Majes-
ty’s sincere desire to accommodate, as far as possible, His
defensive measures to the convenience of Neutral Powers,
the operation of the Orders in Council was, by an order
issued in April 1809, limited to a bluckade of France, and
of the countries subjected to her immediate dominion,
Systems of violence, oppression, and tyranny, can never
be suppressed, or even checked, if the Power against
which such injustice is exercised, be debarred from the
right of full and adequate retaliation: or, if the measures
of the retaliating Power, are to bé considered as matters
of just offence to neutral nations, whilst the measures of
original aggression, and violence are to be tolerated with
indifference, submission, or complacency.
The Government of the United States did not fail to
remonstrate against the Orders in Council of Great Bri-
tain. Although they Knew, that these Orders would be
revoked, if the Decrees of France, which had occasioned
them, were repealed, they resolved at the same moment to
resist the conduct of both Belligerents, instead of requiring
France in the first instance to rescind her Decrees. Ap.
plying most unjustly the same measure of resentment to
the azgressur, and to the party aggrieved, they adopted
measures of commercial resistance against both—a system
of resistance, which, however varied in the successive Acts
of Embargo, Non-Intercourse, or Nou-ilmportation, was
evidently unequal inits operation, and principally levelled
against the superior commerce, and maritime power of
Great Britain.
The same partiality towards France was observable, in
their negociations, as in their measures of alledged resis.
tance, ‘
A pplication was made to both Belligerents for a reroca-
tion of their respective edicts; but the termsin which they
were made, were wide y diflerent.
Of France was requied a revocation ouly of (he Berlin
and Milan Decrees, although many Other edicts, grossly
violating the neutral commerce of the United States had_
been promulgated by that Power No security was de.
manded, that the Berlin and Milan Decrees, even if rev oked,
Should not under some other furm be re-established: and
a direct engagement was offered, that upon such revocat ion,
the American Government would take part in the war
against Great Britain, if Great Britain did not immediate'y
rescind her Orders. —W he:cas no corresponding engage-
meni was ollered to Great Britain, of whom it was required,
not only that the Orders in Council should be repealed,
but that no others of a sin.tlar nature should be issued,
and that the blockade of May 1806, should be also aban-
doned, This blockade established and enforced according
(o accustomed practice, had not been objected to by the
United States at the time it was issued. — Its provisions
were on Ue contrary represented by the American Mi:.ister
resideut in London at the time, to have been so framed,
as to allordin his judgment, a proof of the friendly dis.
position of the British Cabinet towards the United States.
Great Britain was thus catled upon to abandon one of
her most important marit.me rights ; by acknowledging
the Order of viockade in question, to be one of the edicts,
which violated the commerce of the United States, although
it had never been so considered in the previous negocia.
tions ;—and although the President of the United States
hid recently consented to abrogate the Non-Intercourse
Act, op the sole condition of the Orders in Council being
revoked ; thereby distinctly admitting these orders to be
‘he ouly ediccs, wich fell withiu the contemplation of the
law, under which he acted,
A proposition so hostiic to Great Britain could net but
*"e proporionably encouraging to the pretensions of the
‘Memy. As by thus alledying that the biockade of May
(806, was tlesal, the American Government virtually
Justified, su far as depended on them, the French Decrees.
The proposal of an Armisiice, and of a simultaneons
Repeal of the restrictive measures on both sides, subse.
quently made by the commanding officer of His Majesty’s
naval forces on the American coast, were received in the
same hostile spirit by the Government of the United
States. The suspension of the practice of impressment
was insisted upon, in the correspondence which passed on
that occasion, as a necessary preliminary to a cessation of
hostilities : Negociation, it was statedsemight take place
without any suspension of the exercise of this Right, and
also without any Armistice being concluded; but Great
Britain wes required previously to agree, without any
kuowledge of the adequacy of the system which could be
substituted, to negociate upon the basis of accepting the
legislative Regulations of a foreign State, as the sole equi-
valent for the exercise of a right which she has felt to be
essential to the support of her maritime power.
If America, by demanding this preliminary concession,
intends to deny the validity of that right, in that denial
Great Britain cannot acquesce ; nor will she give count.
enance to such a pretension, by acceding to its suspen.
sion, much less to its abandonment, as a basis on which
to treat. If the American Government has devised, or
conceives it can devise, regulations, which may safely be
accepted by Great Britain, as a substitute for the exercise
of the right in question, it is for them to bring forward
such a plan for consideration. The British Government
has never attempted to exclude this question from amongst
those, ou which the two States might have to negotiate:

rican scamen when found vu board British merchant ships:
—But it cannot, by acceding to such a basis in the first
instance, either assu.ue, or admit that to be practicable,
which, when attempted on former occasions, has always
been found, to be attended with great difficultiis; such
difliculties, as the British Commissioners in 1806, express-
ly declared, after an attentive consideration of the sugges-
tions brought forward by the Commissioners on the part of
Ameri¢a, they were unable to surmouat.
Whilst this proposition, transmitted through the British
Admiral, was pending in America, another communication
on the subject of an armistice was unofficially made to the
British Government in this country. The Agent, from
whom this proposition was received, acknowledged that hic
did not consider, that he had any authority himself, to
sign an agreement on the part of his Government. It was
obvious that any stipulations entered into, in cousequenec
of this overture, would have been binding ou the British
Government, whilst the Government of the United States
would have been free to refuse or accept them, according
to the circumstances of the moment: ‘This proposition
was therefore necessarily deelined.
After this exposition of the circumstances which preced-
ed, and which have followed the declarat.on of war by the
Unit. d States, His Royal Highness the Prince Regent, act-
ing in the name and on the behalf of His Maj-sty, feels
himself called upon to declare the leading princ:,.es, by
which the conduct of Great Britain has been regulated in
the transactions connected with these discussions.
Hlis Royal Highness can never acknowledg. any block.
ade whatsoever to be illegal, which has been duly notified,
and is supported by an adequate furce, merely upon the
ground of its catent, or because the ports, or coasts block.
aded are vot at the same time invested by land.
lis Royal Highness can never admit, that neutral trade
with Great Britain can be constituted a public crime, the
commission of which can expose the slips of amy power
whatever to be denationalized,.
His Royal Highness can never admit that Great Briiain
can be deoarred of its mgtit of Just and necessary retaliati.
on, th-ough the fear of eventually aliecting the interest of
a neutral,
His Royal Highness can never admit, that in the exer.
cise of (he undoudted and bitherto undisputed right of
searching neutral merchant vessels in time of war, the
impressment of British seamen, when fcuad therein, can
be deemed any violation of a neutral fiag. Neither can
he admit, (iat the taking such seamen from on board such
vessels, can be considered by any Neutral State as a hostile
measure, or a justifiable cause of was.
There is no right more clearly established, than the right
which a Sovereign has to the allegiance of his subjects,
more especially in time of war. ‘Their allegiance is no
eptional duty, which they can decline, and resume at plea.
sure, Tt is a call which they are bound to obey ; it began
with their birth, aud can only terminate with their exis.
tence. : ,
Ifa similarity of language and manners may make the
exercise of this Right more liable to partial mistakes, and
occasional abuse when practiced towards vessels of the
United States, the same circumstances make it also a right,
with the exercise of which, in regard to such vessels, it is
nore diflicult to dispense.
But if, to the practice of the United States, to harbour
British seamen, be adued their assumed right, to transfer
the allegiance of British subjects, and thus to cancel the
Jurisdiction of their legitimate Sovereign, by acts of natu.
‘alization and certiicates of citizensinp, which they pretend
to be as valid out of their own territury, as within it, it
is obvious that fo abandon this ancient right of Groat Brie
tain, and to adinit these novel pretensions of the Uniced
States, would be to expose to danger the very foundation
of our maritime strength.
Without entering minutely into the other topies, which
have been brought forward by the Government of the
United States, it may be »roper to remark, that whatever
the Declaration of the United States may have asserted,
Great Britain never did demand, that they should force
British manufactures into France ; and she formally declar-
ed her willingness entirely to forego, or modify, in concert
with the United States, the System, by which a commercial
lutercourse with the enemy had been allowed under the
protection of Licences ; provided the United States would
act towards her, and towards France with real imparti-.
ality.
The Government of America, if the differences between
States are not interminable, has as little right to notice the
affair of the Chesapeake. ‘The aggression, in this instance,
on the part of a British officer, was acknowledged, his
conduct was disapproved, and a reparation was regularly
tendered by Mr. Foster on the part of His Majesty, and
accepted by the Goverment of the United States,
it is not less uuowarranted in its allusion to the mission
of Mr. Henry ; amission undertaken without the authori.
ty, oreven knowledge of Ilis Majesty’s Government, and
which Mr, Foster was authorised formally and officially
to disavow.
The charge of exciting the Indians to offensive measurig
against the United States, is equally void of foundation.
Before the war began, a policy the most opposite had been
uniformly pursued, and proof of this was tendered by
Mr. Foster to the Amcrican Government.
Such are the causes of war which have been put for.
‘ward bythe Goverpment of the United States. But the
View original real origin of the present contest will be found in that
spirit, whic has long unhappily actuated the Councils of
the United States: their marked partiality in palliating
and assisting the aggressive tyranny of France; their
systematic endeavours to inflame their people against the,
defensive measures of Great Britain; their ungenerous
conduct towards Spain, the intimate ally of Great Brit-
ain; and their unworthy desertion of the cause of other
neutral nations. It is through the prevaleuce of such
councils, that America has been associated in Policy with
France, and committed in war with Great Britain.
And under what conduct on the part of France has the
Government of the United States thus lent itself to the
enemy? The contemptuous violation of the Commercial
Treaty of the year 1800, between France and the United
States; the treacherous seizure of all American vessels and
cargoes in every harbour subject to the tontroul of the
French artis; the ty canuical princi; les of the Berlin and
Milan Decrees, and the contiseations under them 3 the sub.
sequen? condemnations under the Rambouillet Decree, an.
tedated or concealed to render it the more effectual; the
French commercial regulations which reudor the trafic of
the United States with France alinost illusory : the burn.
ing of their ncichint ships at sea, 'ung after the alledged
repeal of the French Decrecs—all these acts of violence on
the part of France produce from the Government of the
United States, only such com, laints as end in acquiescence,
and submission, or are accompanied by suggestions for
enab'ing france to give the sevnblance of a legal from to
her usurpations, by converting them into municipal regu.
Jafions.
This disposition of the Government of the United States
—this complete subserviency to tie Rater of Prance—this
hostile temper towards Gercat Britain—are evident in almost
every page of the otlicial correspondence of the American
with the French Government,
Against this course of conduct, the real cause of the

The following Pxtract of a Letter, froma Gentleman of
the first respectability in Mahaica, wepresent our readers
with considerable (though melancholy ) satisfaction ; partie
cularly as, on the score of iiformation, itacts asa complete
introduction to what appears on the subject, from the Kin’s
House:
‘We have all been much shockedat the capture of the
Peacock, an the welauchuly circumstances attending it,
J had the detail from four of the crew, who escaped from her
(by means of the small boat, hanging over her stern, which
was wuch shattered, and with diflicully keptatloat by them
until they were picked up by a colony-boat, after having
been six or seven hours in that situation) two hours after
she had been taken possession of by the American sloop
of war Hornet, of 20 guns, principally J32-pounders, aud
175 men, ‘Phe action took place a little to windward of
Mai aica, in five fathom water, and commenced about ten
minutes before five o’clock, on Wednesday evening last
and in forty five minutes the Peacock was obliged to strike.
being a perfect wreck. About aquarter of au hour before
She struck, Capt. Peake was in the act of cheering his
crew, aid encouraging them tocontiune the unequal con.
test, when he received a four and twenty pounder in his
breast, and fell with asmie on his countenance. The
man from whom I received this account, was then at the
helm, not two yards from where the captain was Standing,

below, when he was knocked down by a splinter.—‘*ILere
is some of pour Capt Peake’s blood, (said he, puinting to
his trowsers.) Iwas covered with it, but the sale water
has almost washed it out.”” No other Otlicer was hilled.
arly in the action, Mr. Lot fell—**Poor tot’! (exclaim.
ed the Capt.) 1 did not think you would have been the
first”? Mr Lot was taken down to Dr, Whitaker but re-
turned to his quarters before the action ceased, having
merely been deprived of his senses for a time. When these
poor fellows made their escape, the wounded only had
been taken out of the vessel; and at that time, she had
eight feet water in her hold, and the American Lieutenant
(whose name is O Connor) had hailed his ship to say, that
the prize was sinking, and these lads conceived that all
hands on board the Peacock were in danger of going down
in her, as she had been brought to an anchor and the
Hornet had drifted a considerable distance from them, and
did not seem to take notice of the Licuteuant, when he
hailed. They cotijectured that the Peacock had from 20
to 25 killed and badly wounded. ‘Theenemy only acknow-
ledged one of each, but they say, they do not believe that,
as their fire was well kept up, and the other did not send
their boat to take possession, for twenty minutes after the
Peacock had struck. ‘The plain and apparently sincere
testimony of these men, and the regret which they expressed
for the Captain, were both convincing and affecting. ‘The
spokesman, a respectable looking sailor, said, that he had
been fourteen years in His Majesty’s service, and six with
Capt. Peake; and ‘*Sir (said he) a better man, or braver
vilicer, or better disciplined ship, never sailed out of Eng.
land ; every man exerted himself to the uanost, but they
were tou heavy for us.”
