ffi WASHINGTON, July 18.
It may be satisfactory to the public to
know, that immediately on receiving in-
formation of the outrage cammitted on the
Chesapeake, the secretary of the navy issind
orders to all the officers of the navy, absent
on leave, to return to the publtc service.
The zeal and promptitude displayed by
the militia of Virginia, reflects upon them
the greatest honor, and adds to the numer-
ous cotemporaneh'us proofs that this invalu-
able organ of defence may be implicitly re-
lied upon. We question much whether
the operations of regulars would have mani-
fested greater celerity and order. Such,
too, it will be perceived, is the enthusi;.: m
¦with which our fellow-citizens are prepared
to take up aims, that the number offered
jgiwtfly exceeds that required by the execu-
tive.
There is no doubt that, whatever hope
may be enter.tai .ed of preserving peace, we
rplight f.o be prepared for war, as it'is most
prjbafcle we sfiall have it. It thereii re be.
comes .the nation, by, all the.means jn their
power, to ureptie for an event which will
inquire, their greatest exertions. For we
-venture to predict th it tlittwar, once begmr
_t\ our coMHlTv,, wjU.-be waged on our part
¦with a, fh'teruynrnon to make our enemy
, Let-tlie f.ill-weiglit of that'-vengeau.ee that'
' ' 'a' 'the and powerful nation possesses the
¦power of Wiflietingi . Just in proportion to
ine vahie we set on peace, will be the great.
T'e'ss of our efforts to shorten the period of
war, and crown that effort with victory.
JDet not Britain imagine, that we shall again
exhibit the same, languid and inactive scene
of hostilities that ch iracteri-;ed our revoln
tionarv struggle. Since th.it sera we have
more than doubled our numbers ; and our
Wealth and resources, and consequently our
r-evis of resistance, have more than quad
tupled.
,Ve have fen times as much circulating
specie.
We have an established credit, on which
the government might draw to an unlimited
amount.
Our navigation is ten times as great,
which may be, and probably 'would be,
nearly the whole of it, converted into let-
ters of marque and reprisal, which by the
extent of their captures, would pr bably
¦yield us a more liberal supply of foreign pro.
duction than is at present received through
the ordinary channels of trade.
And as to the sale of surplus produce,
the very war would increase the demand for
it, wh,ile it diminished it; amount. For in
"¦ the first place, as a considerable nupibcr of
the bauds usaally employed in agriculture,
would be engaged in defending the country
either as rcgul.rs or militia, it would fol-
'low necessarily that a less agregate amount
of produce would be raised, leaving conse-
quently a smaller surplus than in times of
Jaeace. And, in the second place the Eu-
ropean demand would remain the same;
and, notwithstanding all the obstructions
given by the British fleet to its free passage
over the ocean, such, is the nature f most
of the aiticles, and the absolute necessity of
obtaining them, that Britain from an indis-
yensible regard to her own interests,
would contiuue to supply herself with them
through neutral channels. Neither^ her
•subjects can live or her manufactures go on
•without them.
It may be safely inferred from these con-
siderations, that there is not the least room
for apprehensioni that our produces will sus-
tain 'any such depression in price as they
experienced during the revolutionary war.—-
There is one other circumstance that will, in
Tjo inconsiderable degree, prevent this ef-
fect. Many of our citizens now engaged in
agriculture, will turn their attention to mi-
rrufactures, tne'necessary effect of which
¦will be a diminution in the quantity of
our surplus, production by lessening the
number of growers and" increasing the num.
bev .of consumers among'ourselves. We
do not pretend to say that war will not de-
press the prices* of produce ; we only mean
to «oiitenii.,4ii.it this depression will be by
•no means so griat or ruinous as it was duv-
^Igihetytewar.
