"The merchants of France have come to the resolution of presenting a petition to their Monarch, requesting him to withdraw the prohibition on the importation of English manufactures. They allege, with great sagacity, that without English goods, they are unable to make up their cargoes for foreign markets, and if these articles are not sent to the countries which require them, in French ships, the English themselves will find some other channel, and will probably establish a rivalry against those manufactures, in which the French take the lead."
