386 LAISSEZ FAIRE A.D. 1776 So far as England was concerned, the most serious difficulty —1850. to our manufacturers, involving as it did the suffering of the operatives, was due to the indirect effect of the measures which had been taken by Government in the supposed in- terests of British trade. As the United States had profited more than any of the other neutrals from carrying on the trade between France and her colonies, American ship-owners suffered more than those of other neutral nations by the Orders in Council and the Berlin and Milan Decrees; both of the bel- ligerents® had imposed and enforced restrictions on American commerce, and their action roused increasing indignation in the United States. The Orders in Council were not issued in England without considerable opposition from those who wished to maintain friendly relations with America. In 1809 the United States passed a non-intercourse Act, and made preparations for open hostilities. Hence these Orders, by straining our relations with the United States, had most serious results on the condition of this country. When their produce was not shipped to Spain and France, the United States could not deal so largely in our manufactures; the in- terruption of trade with them threatened a third of our foreign affected our commerce, increased the difficulties of our food supply, and cut wmpplies of ‘ , naterial off a portion of the supply of raw cotton for the Lancashire end food spinners. As competitors in trade, they had foiled our at- tempts to isolate France and throw her on her own resources. War in disguise had been carried on under the colour of a neutral flag; but in retaliating for this evil, the British Government brought about a condition of affairs, in which every branch of trade connected with America suffered, and suffered severely. Smuggling of every kind, with all its attendant evils, was of constant occurrence’, and English public opinion became more and more sensible of the mischiefs caused by the policy we had adopted. The Government, however, pursued its course, though assenting, in answer to an appeal from Lord Brougham? to a conditional repeal of the Orders in Council, when Napoleons Decrees should be withdrawn. Before effect could be given to this view. however, 13 well as nur many- factures. \ Tucker, Life of Jefferson, m. 291. 2 Marquis of Lansdowne. quoted by Leone Levi, op. ett. 110. 8 75. 111.
