ment, under its present head, has pros

ecuted our claims on foreign powers for

injuries sustained, mid will not permit

ourselves for a moment to believe, that

in a case like (lie present; so clear, so

unanswerable, our merchants will fail to procure from the same source, that redress to which they have a right. It is a paramount duty ofthe federal government lo obtain it for them, as much as it is their duty, to protect our liontier settlers against the incursions ofthe Indians. To the merchants who sustained loss by the bombardment of the entrepot at Antwerp, we should advise a concerted

action: we would recommend them to

forward, immediately and together, to

the department of stale, vouchers pro
