FROM THE AURORA.
To relieve in Tome degree the impa
tience of the public as to Mr. Adit’s
last note to our executive we promised
an outline of its contents. We fulfil
the talk with as much accuracy as is com
patible with the brevity we are obliged
to observe and the intricacy of the fub
jeft.
The Minister of the French Repub
lic thro the whole of his note, speaks as
a&ing under the express orders from the
executive diredory.
After exprdfing the attachment of his
government for the American people he
complains in the name of the Diredory,
of a violation on the part of our execu
tive of the 17th article of the treaty of
1788. - ■
The firft part of that article stipulates,
that the French lhall be at liberty to
bring their prizes into our ports with
out its being lawful for any of our offi
cers to take cognizance of their validity.
In contempt of this stipulation he states
that several French prizes brought in
to our ports have been seized, tried and
restored to their original owners, with
various degrees of delay, vexation, in
justice and injury.
He complains, that the Englilh were
fuffered to arm in our ports in various
inltances, and that the complaints of the
agents of the French Republic everpro
ved ineffedual in Hopping them. Per
sons fufpeded of having assisted in ar
ming French privateers were immedi
ately thrown into prison, while those
concerned inarming British Yelfels were
never molelted : The executive in these
instances exhibiting an evident partiali
ty for the Englilh and no regard for the
maintenance of their neutrality.
The second stipulation in art. 17th,
prohibits all Englilh Ihips that lhall
have made French prizes from entering
our ports. —Our executive have in their
conftrudion of this stipulation. .confined
its prohibitary effed to BritTlh vessels
attempting to come in with their prizes.
The minister protests in the name of the
Diredory against the propriety of this
conftrudion. He confiders it as an at
tempt to add to, not to explain the arti
cle. Even on the supposition that the
article is doubtful, he infills on the im
propriety of an ex parte conftrudion.
He cites sundry examples of Englilh
Ihips of war having entered our ports,
contrary to this stipulation, having made
convenient stations the better to annoy
the French and having, even contrary
to the forced interpretation given to the
17th article by our executive, brought
their prizes into our ports and there re
fitted them to cruize against the French*
The minister next adverts to Jay’s
million. He states that France was de
ceived by the declarations of our execu
tive when that business was set on footj
and that the diredory confiders the Bri
tish treaty as depriving France of all
the advantageous stipulation intended to
befecured to her by the treaty of 1778 ;
as tending to render the neutrality of A
merica advantageous to England to the
de t ri ment of F ranee.
This treaty abandons the modern
law of nations, which even England
had fandioned in 11 treaties and we in
every prior commercial treaty with Eu
ropean nations. It gives the Englilh
the facility of obtaining the transporta
tion of naval stores and warlike imple
ments whitherfoever they please under
the Ihelterof the American flag 3 while
this facility is denied to Frances and
thus it changes during the war the ref
pedive footing ot the belligerent pow
ers with refped to us, the treaty, he
further states, cuts oft the supplies in
provisions which France looked for from
this country, by stipulating that the
Britilh may in every situation seize our
provision vessels bound to the ports of
their enemies. In Ihort he confiders it
as a breach of our neutrality, unless the
French be allowed to partake in the ad
vantages it holds out to Great-Britain.
He also claims this participation in
pursuance of the 2d article of the treaty
of 1778, which grants the French all
the Advantages of commerce and navi
gation enjoyed by the ruoft favored na
tion. And in this point of view the
orders of the French veflels of war to
treat the American flag in every refped
as we lhall fuffer it to be treated by the
Englilh have been iflued.
The minister proceeds to protest in
the name and by the orders ot the exe
cutive diredory against the violation of
the 17th article. He claims replevy of
all seizures, and the annulling of all ju
dicial ads with refped to French prizes,
and protests against all opposition to the
sale of prizes.
He protests against the violation of
the fame articles by our admitting into
our port? Britilh armed vessels, and a-
gainft ihc interpretation put by
cutive upon that article.
He declares, that the diredory con
fiders our Treaty with Britain as a v°o’
lanon of their treaty with us. and ‘
equivalent to a treaty of alliance with
that nation ; and, in consequence or
ders him tofufpend his minifteiial f Unc ”
tions here. “•*
The Direftorydedare, that they do
not with this tneafure to be considered i.
the I‘ght of a rupture but a. a mark of
thetr sense of injury, which is to last un
til they can obtain fatisfaftion. Thev
reiterate their expressions of friendffib
for the people notwithftandin* the
wrongs of the executive.
, The minister concludes by ftatim?
that the F*nch republic always had ft
at heart to cultivate harmony by amu
tnal interchange of good offices; but
that our admimftration have as conftam
ly endeavored to break asunder the ties
which conned the two nations. Earlv
under the Republic, the French colonie*
were opened to us; the port, of France
alio on the fame footing as to their own
veffels* When England violated the
neutral flag, France obliged to make use
of repnlals, exempted from the measure
the Americans ; and tho’ forced, for a
while, much against thcirinclination, to
withdraw the exemption, they early Re
newed it. 1
was during
the tc, |^n a the
marked attention ; what
alks the executive of the
United States employed in ? Thev
were questioning whether they would
acknowledge the republic and receive
their ambassador ; whether thev Ihould
confider the treaty, the price of Ameri
can liberty, as binding, whether the
envoys from exiled and rebellious prin
ces Ihould be received ; and an amoigu
ous proclamation of neutrality was fram
ed ; French privateers were harrailed;
England was fuffered to sport with our
neutrality, and to cut up our commerce
to the detriment of France; Englilh
ships of war were admitted in our ports •*
the advances of France for a renewal of
the treaty of commerce were eluded un
der the moft frivolous pretexts, while
our executive courted the Britilh and
solicited atreaty by which prostituting
our neutrality we faeriftced France to
her enemies.
And this whilst a “review oflate ev
ents, whilrt *very objetl around, ftiil re
mind us of the tyranny of Britain and
the generous affiilance of France. The
note concludes by catling on American*
to remember, that if generous minds are
alive to injuries, they can forgive ; and
that the French when they are treated
as friends, will ftiil be found faithful
friends and generous allies.
* The supplies which France expelled inker
colonies were cut off-, by our virtually acquicfcing
in the principle , that a declaration front a Brihjh
commander placed them in a flute of blockade.
