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. For the Georgia Republican. Messrs. Lron its Morse, lam one of the Yazoo men, an l as a good brother laid in yoUr last, a law is a ! law. Now I very well know that the princi : pals in obtaining that law, had no fort of confidence in one Matthew M’Alifter, who j you tell us is a candidate for congress : well knowing that on the kaft idea of fraud he would have, been off like a Ihot and j exerted himfelf Fit. ft rate the law, we very wifely determined to keep alo if an‘l contrive to make use of the 25,000 dollars entruft .ed to him and Seaborne Jones. We very cunningly made Seaborne fix h m there. —■ j For the reason that he woifld never ’ countenance corruption, and that he once | decided a cauie against me ; I have ckter j mined to bppofe his election, and though I ‘am purfiiadod he is the word man for Ya ’ zoo which could be clioien, I have deter mined to cry up 7 a too fiver coaches, and •1 a a. agon loan's of dollar s.

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. |crat, is an enemy to democracy, 6r .~r* -t ipublican governments. net t J *. * - eralifts (as they call themselves) all arid - crat; from their head down to the mean, l j tiling among them?

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. ire Ita.e ot Ptnnlyivam , uad display— * ed f) \ ifi.oroufly iier attachment to cur general gevernment. that in her capita! it w 2j thought little fa cefs wrnffd attend the in troduFt ion of a ad British agent.
