Dec 6 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.
