We present our readers tit is day, with
the difeourk of Bonaparte to his council
of Rate, previous to his departure on his
journey to t*|e departments.
Tibs eifeourfe, if not fpunoits, pre
sents afubjeft of contemplation to tlie poli
j tician, not to De exceeded in the annals or
the world, lit is the moil direct avowal of
the tyrant that language ever afforded.
, e begins bv thanking the council for
* O % ,
their ‘‘xeal and fidelity,” which it
bad perfecllf fatisfied him; he therefore
relied on them to pursue the deftrutlion of
liberty in his absence.
It appears that rotwithftanding the
yroffeit adulation is that alone which is al
lowed to efeipe from France to the world,
yet even consular dignity has not been able
neprefs the murmurs of the French people.
“ The internal administration has not
unity,” and this even leads to a doubt whe
ther any other government than a Gefpotic
one can be maintained in France ; for this
is unqueitionably the precise meaning of the
consul,
FI ad this plea been urged as a fpecida
tive point by an observer of French man
ners, it would perhaps be deemed an illibe
ral opinion toward tnat people , but when
it is viewed as the deliberate avowal of the
tyrant himfelf, one too, who has detlroyed
ai/noil every vellige of liberty in his coun
i try, we may cxpcE it will be followed rip
by dee Is more horridly despotic than any
we have yet witnessed.
He is u pretty well fat is tied with the
rich proprietors they, it fee ms, have per
formed their part in the war againlt liberty
with tolerable prompt net?, but have not
idolifed Bonaparte with fuffieient earnestness;
they have not evinced'*‘Efficient confidence”
in his government, and “ have (hewn little
anxiety to involve themselves in its ’delliny.”
Like all other aristocracies, they b'len
willing to deiltoy the people, but unwilling
to resign ail to a despot.
One happy fact is unfi/lded by this
address, whatever the world may have
thought of the French people, it is evident
thev iiavc not wholly 101 l their ideas of
liberty : they cannot but contrail the
fplcndid tyranny of Bonaparte with the
j iimpler days of t e revolution ; they cannot
j but remember that the splendor of a con
■ fular bed of date, cod the labor of forne J
‘• hundreds of citizens, and that the iinfel of
■ grandeur is ‘drawn from the hard earnings j
of the peafaut and the manufacturer “The
revolution,” inys he, “ lias rendered them -
jealous of every thing connected With 1
j RANK aad splendor.” We hope he will j
j hereafter, have occasion to add, that it has!
’implanted in them a fpnat which will j
j dare to set limits to power, though cloa :ed |
j snder the foft name of consul.
1 But it seems that to this splendor and i
■ extravagance th< are to be accustomed !
“ T’no long the world has Wept bewailing i
j “ That virtue's dagger tyrants wield 1
| And thp philanthropic bosom gtrws with j
J the hope that the French people wd! speak
i in thunder to their oppreflor, and teach
1 him, that
j it y rce( Jom is their sword and shield,
| “ And all Ids arts are unavailing,”
We acknowledge that this hope is
rendered faint by a ..view of the pad ; the
i bloc diked and anarchy attendant on their
revolution, and tameiiefs of their luhsufnon
heretofore. ._ . ,
This difeon fe furriihvs fome of the j
moil important Lions for the fnesas ot:
v et, wiiich can be found. It is by nbiita- 1
ry glory, fays Bonapa; te, that we have been
“railed to our present fiction, “ and it is only ;
bv milita y power that we can maintain j
611 rfefvcs in it.” V. e mud “ prefect to
aftonilhed Ftuope a gigantic army.” He j
acknowledges that for th:s purple, an;
inercafe of direct taxes will be necekary, j
and that in in the present ivJ*e cf attains, ,
it will require them mod of his skill to dis-j
guile it Neighboring cations, iubduedft
the power of France, ire to groan under;
t ibule until they can b;r.r it r.o lonrel- v.hefi *
the bur len will return to France, and too ]
late ih will experience its weight. Public I
opinion he complains, has been allowed too j
mucti weight while he poficlfed not the
means of di termg or erwirouling it. With j
the tribute of cnllaved nations, he will !
raise an army, and with soldiers he will !
extort money ; the public opinion will be j
controuted ; and France will feel her fitters
when they are rivetted too itrong for re
fiitance.
In the military character of the French,
Bonaparte thought he perceived great
facilities. But lie was doomed to experi
ence the vail difference between the call of
a tyrant and the summons of liberty.—
V. hen the revolution required their fervids,
we beheld the French flocking with en
thusiasm to the ftantiard of tlffir country,
but now, Bonaparte finds“ there is j.o ar
dour in the youth, and much i idifpolition
in the parents.” Tyranny is never beloved
by the people, if opposition cannot be fuc
cefsiully exerted.
It requires no uncommon portion of
sagacity to predict that the career of Bona
parte cannot be of long duartion, tifurpers
have fcldom flouriihed to their end, and des
potisms are ever unilable.
W hen we view the parties in the present
war, the mind cannot decide between them.
That Bonaparte is a tyrant, and that Ids
fall could not injure the free om of his
country, we are fully c mvinceJ, but groan
ing under an equal tyranny, the fubjt£ls of
George, have little to fear from his lucceis
or to hope from his overthrow. The cor
ruption of the Britilh government, added
to the opprefilon of their national debt,
has assumed so hedious an afpecl that,the
1 common people might well exclaim
“ Chang’d to a woner shape, tliou canst
not be ’
Britain tyrannizes over the ocean,
France, over the land. Win be the fleet of
Britain maintains its present fiuperiority,
i neutral commerce mull fuffer from her info
leuce : ere France to succeed, would they
! fuffeoJgls • ? This problem is diflicult to solve.
| that the rapid ttridcs of France
J to unbounded sway in the cabinets of Fu
{rope, juflified England in undertaking a war
j againll her; that the tyranny of Uonapaite
was a fuffieient excuse for the* perfidy of
Britain in refpesft to the treaty of Amiens ;
by what plea will Ihe jnllify the opprefilon
of neutral commerce, and the opposition to
the principle that free ships make free
goods, or even if we allow her this, can we
a (lent to the impressment of neutral teamen
from neutral vessels ? The hostility of this
nation to the right of every other, renders
i it truly doubtful whether her humiliation by
; France would be a ctirfe ora blcffing to the
1 world, and as much ns we detest the info
, lent, bragadoclan tyranny of Bonaparte we
: cannot think the iuccefs of Britain would
be cf advantage to mankind. The event
I is in the hands of providence ; —let his will
be done.

( Fellow- r'ti-zerr,
THE time is now at hand when yotf
[ are to exi rcife your right of electing men
!to fene you in the legislature. You fliould
j look out for such men as you think will
j do you juilice, and proteef you in all your
I privileges—one of the mod valuable is your
; annual choice of men : for, fliould you ap
i point such as fnoifl.d deceive you, the next
year you will be at liberty to difmils him,
and fend another that you hove more con
fluence in : this : s one of the main-springs
in a true Republican government. As it j
•s well known we have two parties in our j
country, one known as Republican or De- i
mccrat, the other as Federal, ‘ Monarchal,
Aristocrat or Tory, you ought to chose of
| that party which you think is likeliest to
| do ycu.jTt:iice and maintain you in all your
; rights. He fliould be a man that has no
hipr-ate in t ere ft from the people at large.
Bat we know the federalifts aim toeftablilh
monarchy, a jsobihty and ditlinbt
They love war, power, taxes and confufion.
Since such is their aim, and such ti eirlovc
we ought to be very careful how we put
any such men into any place cf power, trust
or profit : we ought to put confidence and
trust in our known frieuds, and net in our
known enemies. He that employs a known
enemy to do his business mull be a fool to
expect it well done, or done at all. It is
well known, that every monarvhrfl or arifto.

Mr. Windham the late secretary of war
in England, it is well known to possess tD
mod violent passions, and altho* in the cc^
lit ion which took place between the king's
friends and the duke id Portland’s party', he
as one of the latter became minuter at war,
yet his design has ever been to advance the
| power of the ariilocracy over the crown and
|to elevate the Nobles, on the ruins cf their
( Prince. In onething both parties ageced viz,
to keep down and oppress the people, hence
!it was that Mr, Windham, the man who
1 when in the minority, would n< ver lii ink
! the kings health, who publicly rejoiced id
j his afflictions in 1788 who has declared he
v merited the fate of Charles and when prefi
cling at public meetings at the Angel inn in
Norwich would give toasts to that efttd ;
no sooner law the principles of America,
; pervading Europe than he attached himfelf
to the kings party and with an unblufhjng
apoftacy connected himfelf with men, whom
he had in public and in private declared the
moil iniquitous of mankind ; to prevent
the spread of American principles, every art
that corruption and pride, intend! and pro
fligacy could devise when aided by wealth
and power was adopted ; to Mr. Wind
ham’s genius may’ be attributed, it i3 believ
ed, the bold design of attacking American
principles, in the heart of America herfelf,
he it ivas who with patienth.duftry and per
severing zeal fought thro’ all the filth of
British corruption, for a man who regardless
of morals poffefTed industry, originality and
depravity, a bold tho’ vulgar wit, one who
would corrupt the public mind, cover the
face of virgin modesty with blushes, level
the characters of the mod virtuous by
lies and calumnies with his own, and whilil
he laughed at public virtue inicnfibly fliould
spread the doctrines of corruption—for well
Mh V\ indham knew that could such a man
be found, he would go far to corrupt the
morals of a nation, render the press licentious
and give a pretence for thole meafurca
which if once fairly introduced mull be
followed by others til! they
faired fabric the benignity of
permitted man to shield himfelf under agaiim:
the art, hypocrisy and cruelty of such of his
fellow men, as should be dressed up in a little
brief authorit; .
How far Mr. Windham fucceedeJ, how far
Ire proved his knowledge cf the disposition
of mankind, s in the vecolledlion of every
one who remembers the produ<ftion of Por
cupine & avidity with which they were
copied into the tory papers of the day. Cob
bet certainly did Ins duty to bis envploy'ers,
it he erred it was in his over zeal, it exhi-*
bited him in his true light, and dettfled as a
blackguard, and diipifcd like a liar he wa
compelled at la it to leave this country and
iecK. ih London, under the patronage ofMr.
Windham, that support, which the good
fcnle of the American nation, (perhaps
somewhat too late) iiad withdrawn from
him.
The success of the firff experiment, was
however fufffciently great to induce a fecoud
attempt, but it was now thought requisite
to fend a person of a fmoothcr pen, glibly it
was to run, and whether it was to defend the
charge said to be gi-ven by’ Judge Chafe, n
those parts, which it seems he has himfelf
denied, or to ridicule our government, whe
ther it was to defend the impressment of
of our la lors by a foreign and a fJiing power
or to convert her very corruptions, into
sources of praiie, the new agent was tobee
qually at home in all, he was to go thro*
thick and thin, the principles of Ameri—
jca mq|t be undermined if they could not ba
j lubverted, and Mr. Windham, was again
i fortunate in the choice of his agent.
