FROM THE BOSTON PATRIOT, LETTER VI.
To the Right Hon. George Canning, First Lord
of the Treasury, &c. Sir: In my last letter, I showed that the Baltimore
petition wholly failed you, in the matter for which you cite it.
I now proceed to show that you have equally mistaken the decision of the Senate (which you call the decision of the American Legislature) upon that petition. I will first repeat your account of the matter, that it may be manifest I do not mistake it. After stating correctly that the petitioners requested the repeal of the discriminating duties on British vessels coming from whatever ports, you add - "It appears, from the reports of the
decisions of Congress, that it was against the
the prayer of this petition (but without impeachment of any of its allegations) that the decision
of the American Legislature, at the close of
the session, was taken; it cannot be doubted,

the sewing ilk and raw tilk made iu three
counties of Connecticut, in the year 1G10, was
23,503, according to the estimate of the United States Marshall; and as the business has
been greatly extended every )eir since that time, it is reasonable to presume that the present amouat of the article is double this sum. It would be much increased if the v alue of the home made stockings, mitts c garments made of Gilk, and mixture of cotton, wool and silk, with which almost every house in part of Windham county abounds, be taken into consideration. 'The serious addition to the usual income of the farmers, derived from the culture of silk, may be considered as so much clear gain, for from personal inquiries made on the
spot by a member ol this society, it was ascer
tained, that it did not interfere with the regu
lar crops, and it was even acknowledged by iject.

lieve, that an adjustment of the com uer ial intercourse between the United States and the Rritish Colonies, forms one cf the special ami prominent objects which hav e been committed to the Minister of the United States, at tue Court of London; that a corresponding desire to arrange it, on a satisfactory footing, appears to exist on the part of the British Gov
ernment, and that the negotiations respecting it aTe expected to come 10 a definitive issue before the next session of Congress.'' For these re. isOns,sir,theCommitte,though fully agreeing with the memorialists in the wish to cultivate and extend the trade in question, which they trust may be done to the mutual advantage of the parties concerned in it, are still uianimosly of opinion, that it is not at
this time expedient to legislate upon the ?ub-
