as soon, however, 6 the imperial

, CHARLESTON, July a,
The iollowing information is comuni
cated by a gentleman lately from Afri-’
jea, in order to afford the American
merchants a knowledge of the usual
.treatment which may be expeded at
|Gorte.
j .- apt. Mackay, late commander of the
(chooner Susan of this port, had taken
jfrom him, on his arrival at Goree, two
;hog(heads of Tobaeco, and upon his
jremonftratiog, was told that the gover
nor would have it, anu at his own price ;
‘this was I’ub.nitted to,and the payment
made 111 government bills, which he was
obliged to fell at fifteen per cent, dis-
,count.
| Capt. A. M’c-iure, of the ship Horiz
.'on, of this port, arrived at Goree ths 23d
j January lalt. The Lark sloop of war,
r commanded by captain Langford, lying
.there, sent a boat on board of the Flori
a-m, and impriffed three of her seamen.
.Captain M’Clure exportulated with the
.captain of the sloop ot war,and with the
of the place, upon the impr*
ipriety es their condudl, as they were re
.ai Americans. Captain L. replied, that
jthat was immaterial, as he wanted men
ijand mutt have them. Captain M’Clure
.jgot his “'hip under way after this, but
ijiometliiug refptftingthe men not being
( |iittled feveraifhot were fired by the sloop
war it the fort, at the Hoi non, two of
.which hit her fide ; she was brought to,
! and a from the sloop of war sent to
bring her into harbor.
Captain M’Clure was brought on fhorc
and a.ter being fome time detained at
t coinrrimandant'b houie, was permitted to
proceed, with the detention of three
or his seamen. Six were at fi: ft . de
tained, and three afterward* restored.
Captain M’Ciure informed the gover
nor and the captain of the sloop of war,
that he (hould broteft againit their con
duct m the fir it port at which he touch
ied.

jjfore he failed, orders were received by
jleveral French officers belonging to two

I thought republicans,would do well to point
out what they would have different from

it, gentlemen, you would have? Come, let
us reason together. Make out your lift
of grievances !
State clearly and explicitly what aber
rations you would have.
Tell us wherein the condition of the:
country could be improved. ,
In what refpebt the people could be
made happier. How their public affairs
could be better conducted.
What part of the present system is an
ti-republican.
What part is hostile to the interests of
the community.
Wherein can you propose an alteration
for the better ? State it ; let the world
know what it is.
You claim to be republicans : Have
we not differed, then, long enough if it is
for nothing ? And if it be lor fomethmg,
iurely you muff be able to point out
what it is.
You are invited to do this. Take the
avowal principles of the present govern
ment, take its system of meafnres, and
tell us explicitly wherein they differ from
your principies, and from the measures
you would pursue. Resort not ta the
hackneyed theme of turning men out of
offices. This decides nothing. Few
comparatively speaking, have been turned
out. Perhaps they deserved it. And
what is it to you, cr to us, or to the na.
tion at large, who occupy the offices ?
[We mult pays let who will receive. Quit,
jihen, this topic, and come to the merits
of the cause.
Are you useafy becaufc you are not
taxed enough i
Are you uneasy because your public
debts is rapidly lefTming ?
Are you untafy because the pvefs ia
free, aucl lpeech is free, and you may
(peak, write, print, and believe what you
jpleafe.?
Are you uneasy with economical mea
sure, tnat the government does not go
Nt.o extravagant projicts, and borrow
money to carry them on ; and that it t*
enabled, it (lead of these, to quiet the In
dians and buy up their lands, and the
lands of our dangerous neighboA, the
Trench and Spaniards ?
nre- you dilconteutcd with peace, and

To all tnefe questions you will answer,
