FROM A LATE LOI.'DON PAPER.
Friday morning a moll extraordinary
dud took place in Hyde Fark, between
Lieutenant V/. of the Navy, and Cap
tain J. of the Army. The antagonills
arrived at the appointed place within a
few minutes of each other? fomedifpute
arose refpefting the distance, which
the friends of Lieutenant W. infilled
should not exceed fix paces, while the
leconds of Captain J. urged Itrongly
the rashness of lb detiflve a diltance, and
in Ailed on its being extended. At
length the proposal of Lieut. W’s friends
was agreed to, and the parties fired per
signal, when Lieutenant W. received the
(hot of his adversary on the guard ot
his piflol, which tore away the third and
fourth finger of his right hand. The
leconds then interfered to no purpose j
the son of Neptune, apparently callous
to pain, wrapped his handkerchief round
his hand, and l'wore he had another
which never failed him. Captain J.
called his friend aside, and told him it
was in vain to urge a reconciliation.
They again took their ground. On
Lieut. \V. receiving the pitlol in his
left hand he looked ftedfaitly at Captain
J. for lime time, then call hi? eyes to
heaven, and said in a low voice, “ For
give me.” The parties fired as before,
and both fell. Captain J. received the
(hot through his head, and instantly ex
pired f Lieutenant W. received the ball
in his left bread, and immediately in
quired of his friend if Captain j ,‘s wound
was mortal ? Being answered in the as

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.
HOUSE OF COMMONS.
The Chancellor of the Exchequer
moved the order of the day for taking
into consideration his majesty’s moft gra
cious message.—The melTage having
been read by ipeaker accordingly ;
The Chancellor of the Exchequer
said, “ I rife for the purpose of propos
ing an address of thanks to his majesty
for his moft gracious message cf yeitirr
day, and I trull I feel a well grounded
confidence that the appeal which his
majelty has judged it proper to make to
the public spirit, fortitude, and liberality
of his parliament, will not be in vain.
I would observe, firj that there are two
particular points included in the message,
the one refers to the military preparation
which are carrying on in the ports of
France and Holland, and the other to the
difeufiions of considerable importance
which are now carrying on with the
Frehch Government, Either of these
points are of a rfature to require a vigi
lant circamfpeftion on the part ol his
majesty’s executive government, Snd
when combined together, they demand
not -inly fuitafcle vigilance and atten
tion. but also proportionate rteafures of
precaution. It has been Hated to go
vernment that the preparations which
are now going forward in the ports of
France and Holland are avowedly for
the purp fe of colonial service. This
is the polfible and I hope I may venture
to fay the probable, destination ; but
when it is Hated to this House that the
refillt of the Negotiations now depend
ing is uncertain, it will obviously-strike
every Gentleman's mind that such pre
parations may eventually be employed to
very different purpofe*, altering our vi
tal interests, and which this Country
would feel itfelf bound to counteract.
I trull that the House will not expeft,
in the present stage, any particular or
detailed account of the nature or progress
of those difqufiions referred to in his
majefty*s message, and that I may be
allowed to confine tftyfelf to the expref
fion of my hopes that the result will
prove to be such as is coftneiled with the
true interests of these countries ; but
lhould it prove otherwise, his majesty, I
know, may confidently rely on his Par
liament; and the tried magnanimous,
spirit of the country. If such, unfortu
nately, (hould be the result of these dif
cuflions, as to reduire 2 warlike position,
1 result which I would reluftantly sup
p f., the house may expeCl every detail
competed therewith to be laid before
them. With refpeCl to the measures
■vnich it may be proper *0 adopt in the
present state of affairs, I am not now
prepared to go at laige into l’uch a dif
uifioji. It will however naturally oc
cur to gentlemen, that it will be ex
pedient to fault fotrte augmentation to
be made to his majesty’s naval forces,
and also to t3ke fome farther measures
for our encreafed internal security. I
expedl to be entrufled with a message
froni his majesty, ftatirfg, that his ma
jesty has recurred to the conllitutional
measures of embodying the militia j and
whtlll it will be with regret to his ma
jesty that those persons who have so
lately made a Dcrifice of their doriicilic
comfort to the public service should a
gain be called upon, he feels confident
that the fame patriotic aldour will dis
cover itfelf when the exigency of affairs,
and the defence and Welfare of the coun
try lhall be found to require it. The
house will be pleased to observe, that all
that is Hated in his m.ijelly’s message
has a referrence to a Hate of defence,
and refers only to measures of precau
tion. lam sanguine, therefore, that the
home will give proof of an unanimous de
termination to enable his majesty to 4-
dop: such measures as may be necessary
to answer these purposes. The sense
of the house will not thereby be pledged
to any fpeciflc measures that may in fu
ture be proposed ; nor will any gentle
man be precluded from canvalling the
propriety or impropriety of the proceed
ings of the executive governmeA I
trull, therefore, that whatever differen
ces of opinion may fubfill as to the poli
cy or impolicy of peace or war, and par
ticularly as to the conditions of the late
peace, there will be found to be an una
nimous concurrence in fupportitig the
moti in which I have now the honour to
propolis for the adoption of the House.”
Mr. Addington concluded with moving,
the address of thanks to his majesty.
Mr. Fox said he did not rife for the
purpose of opp.ifing the motion for an
address, or of dillurbing the *Vilhed-for
unanimity upon this occafton j he wi(h
ed merely to fay a few words, that he
might not be afterwards concluded to
have committed himfelf by assenting to
the present motion. It forcibly (truck
hisriiind, as he thought it mull do that
of every other gentleman, that upon no
occasion had the home ever been called
upon to give a vote isl a matter of equal
importance, in which they were left in
l'ich complete darkness as at present.
A* vote in general terms, by way of re
turning thanks to his majesty for his
gracious communication, and to’ express
their determination to support the honor
of his majesty’s crown, and the eflential
interests of his people, no member cer •
tainly could retufe to give. The mes
sage, he observed, included two grounds.
With refpefl to the military armaments
fitting put in’ the ports of France and
Holland, that wa? a ground of fo£t on
which he had little to fay. On the
ground of the difcuflions which were
now going forward with the govern
ment of France, he considered that there
was nothing pledged in the opinion of
any one member who wat called onto
support the present address. His maief
ty having given the houie no hints of
what nature these difcullidns were, he
could not, therefore, give any opinion
whatever, although he could not but
fuppole that the l'ubjefts of difeuffion
were important. Uuder such circutr.-
stances, he mull insist that the address
could convey no other meaning thah
limply this, that the house was obliged to
his majesty for his communication { that
they were anxiouily felicitous for the
continuance ot peace, and that they were
equally ready to support his majesty if
the bleflings of peace cannot be maintain
ed.—Mr. Fox concluded by faying,
“ There is only one thing that remains
to be added, and it is this, that I do
hope his majelly’s advisers will seriously
confidcr the present situation of his Brit
ish empire , and that if they should in
volve the country in a war which should
afterwards be found not to be necessary,
they would be found to be rtore guilty
than any Miniller that ever advised such
a measure in any other period of our
hiltory.”
Mr. in Dit am said. he agreed wish
in honourable Gentleman who spoke
last, that the house was placed rath
er in a state of darkness with regard to
the nature of the bulinefs now before it.
All he could learn from the statement
of the Chancellor of the Exchequer was,
that the risfeafures of precaution about to
be adopted were to be of a defenfive kind ;
and for that rCalbn he rnuft protest a
gainst the present mode ol proceeding.
The force about to be raised ought to be
calculated for offence as well as de
fence. ‘ With regard to the vote just
moved, he agreed in the interpretation
given of it by Mr. Fox. That vote,
1 however, it was necessary to concur in,
whether war or peace {hould be expedi -
ent or necessary. Perhaps it might now
be said, that those Gentlemen who had
so warmly disapproved of the peace,
Were now glad to catch at any thing
i like a renewal of the war -**T’nat would
! certainly be a faife conclusion. Those
gentlemen, among whom he was one,
disapproved of the peace of Amiens, not
because they preferred war to peace,
but he opposed that treaty because he
th night it deprived the country of the
means of carrying on the war, which he
thought mufl soon break out again.—k
That opinion he had not flnCe changed ;
and lie was flill more fully confirmed in
it froth what passed that day in the
1 house. He Could not agree in opinion
with an hon. gentlehaan, thit War was
evil greater than any other. That it
was an evil he would not denj>, but he
con fidered the peace as a flill greater evil,
& his opiriiott was how fully confirmed.
Mr. Sheridan rose after Mr. Wind
ham, and said, that finding the house
unanimous in its disposition to support
the address, although trivial diftinflions
had been taken as to the grounds on
whiejh it otight to be fiipported, he should
have'been well content lo have given
his silent vote of approbation to it, but
for fome fenfiments and expressions in
the speech of the right honourable Gen
tleman, who Had just fat which
struck him as the moft extraordinary and
reprehehfible He had ever heard in Parlia
ment. The right Honourable gentleman
had appeared to-day in a state of new
and unusual anxiety to deprecate the idea
that he, and those who had thought and
afleci with him, because they, had been
avowedly hostile to the peace, 4nd there
fore avowedly, for the continuation of
the war, fliould now He otherwise cbn
fidered than as the nvn the moltzealouf
ly dilpofed to maintain the peace.—Nay,
the hon. gentleman had gorie further, for
he had maintained that those who had
condemned the peace on his principles,
were peculiarly entitled to the credit of
being the persons now moft reluftant to
the renewal of war.——Mr. Sheridan
said he would not now pause to examine
the consistency of this claim, if conipar
ed with the hon. gentleman’s former de
clarations on this fubje£l i but he called
on the hotife to look at the argument set
up this day. We that opposed the peace;
said the honourable gentleman, rnuft be
presumed to be the persons. moft relu&ant
to renew the war, because our strongest
motive and argument for condemning the
peace was, that it left us hom'ians of re
lenting future injuries,'of, on whatever
6ro vocation, of renewing future hostility.
ut he wens further flill, for he declar
ed* that even if our exiftenee, *s a na
tion, was the queffiorr, the peace had
left us without ability to meet the con
test. This pufilanimous doftrine Mr.
Sheridan‘reprobated in terms of animat
ed indignation dccoihpanied by applaud
ing cheersfrom all parts of the house.) “ •
” What, fir, he said, is this language to
Hold at such a moment as the prefent* ?
I have heard, indeed, that the firft con
sul of Franc*?, has modeflly proclaimed
so the valTal thronei of Europe, that
England is no longer able to contend
tingle-handed with France—but I did
not expcfl to heaT this sentiment rt
echoed and acquiriced in by a member
of the British Parliament.”— (Loud and
indignant cry of hear ! hear /Mr.
Sheridan proceeded to fay, that what
ever were the motives of that new r
-1 ludlance to war, which seemed so fud
’ denly to have seized the right honorable
gentlem'an, his reluctance could not be
nlore earned and sincere than his own
| was.—He deprecated war from every
feeling of his heart, and every sugges
tion of h reason. He adjured min
isters to try to their extent, what tem
per, what conciliation, what even con
ceflion, without forfeiture ,of honor,
could do ; —but if all these sincerely at
‘ tempted should fail, and the dire neces
sity of renewing- the wai* lhould be fore- j
ed os us, he would sot endure for a m&-
ment to be told, that the energies of the
country were so exhaufled, that we had
no course left us but submission. No,
he trusted that in spite of the audacious
boast of the firll consul, that it would
be manifested to him and even to the
right honorable gentleman, that there
were dill left spirit and resources in
British hearts, not merely to protect the
existence „ of their country, but to a
venge the flighted insult upon its hon
or. He trusted that the illullrious ex
ample set that day by the firft of hi*
majesty’s fuhjetts would be considered
as a signal to every other fubjeft
throughout the Britifli, dominions—a
signal that they should feel the impor
tance of the crifis.'that they should, like
him, lay aside all personal confedera
tions, and even all public considerations
of lesser ihtereft, in order to mee? with
fortitude and unanimity, the peril of
that situation, whatever it lhall becomes
which hostile and infatiate ambition
may place us in, and which our mode
ration and forbearance have not been
able to avert.
Mr. Windham briefly explained, and
denied that he had used the language
imputed to hi in by the honorable gen.
tleman.
The question vyas put and carried.

An ADDRESS to th* Inhabitants of Montgo.

fellow-citizrn.
Char. Lit H. W, WhartoA.
. 7 ,. r no. m. „ .
, WHEN maturely considering thfe
removals made by Mr. Jelferfon, we
{hall difeover. the only ground upon
which they can be defended to be their
necessity. If these removals were neces
sary—is any the moft remote advantage
accrued to the nation by this measure,
then of course they are in unison with
the Mmutable principles of political
juilice. But iri order to riiew this nccef
ilty two things mull be proved. Firs%
ths't the Federalilts, who had hitherto
filled the offices of our government, had
not difeharged, vvith fidelity the dutiei
of their rdpeClive llations—or, secondly *
il no charge of this kind had been sus
tained, that there rnuft nevetthfelefs re*
fult fome benefit to the Country by theiif
removal. As to the firft, no charge of
the kind has ever been adduced, Fed*
eraliftshave not be accused of mal-con*
duel in their office. Democratic info*
lence has not dared to call in queftiod
their .ntegrity or their talents. They
have been allowed by their opponents to
possess both. Mr. jefferion admits
them,to be ativched to the constitution—
In pla.u and explicit terms he calls
thertl Republscahs ; and yet, strange as
it may appear, these are the very ment
marked out as viftims to executive ven
geance ! Why is this done I If they be
heneft men, why remove them ? If they
be Republicans, should they not be pa
trdhized as friends to Cur country j or
what seems lliil more grateful to a De
mocratic car, the friends of the people f
In order to juftify this measure every
Republican character hath thrown
his mite } and fomethinglike an apology
has been made out. , The bawling de*
magogue—the miffHevious difotghnizeri
and the former inhabitants of a dun
geon, have enlifled under the banners—*
and foph.iftry, inllead of argument, has
been employed to convince us of it*
propriety. We have been told that 4
rotation in office is essentially necessary
Cos the V/ell being of our government ;
that it is the very life and spirit of Re*
publican inftifu'tidns; that the removals
were therefore in unison with tie found
ell policy ‘ and upon this ground, and
this only, Has the measure, found advo
cates. Let us combat this position.
It is certainly ffecioiisj but I trufll
(hall be able to convince you of its fal
lacy. “ A rotation in office,” they fay,
“ is essentially necessary to the well be
ing of Republican governments.” j
deny it. In order to demon.ft rate the
non-exiHence of such necessity, let us
suppose that ten persons have entered
into asocial compact, and formed a go
vernment—l would jtiil observe that
imported patriots are excluded froni
iuCh supposed association, because they
are generally such orderly, enlightened
citizens as to need not the restraint of
laws. Well, in this government, as in
every rational one, officers mull be crea
ted. To difcharg[e the duties of these
offices, talents and integrity are requir
ed. The society invest a President with
full powers to fefefl char afters to fill
these offices. The persons appointed
do not abuse the trust reposed in them.
For eight years have they undergone
the fatigues of public bufmefs; and du
ring this time they have given universal
fatistaftion. Their talents are undoubt
ed, their reputation untarniihed with a
bluih—what now should we fay of the
President of such a society if bq were to
dismiss these faithful femttt* of the peo
ple? Would the measure be deemed
prudent ot wile ? On what ground
Could it be advocated? What benefit
could possibly arise to the people by ts
step like this ? All rational mSn would
eondemn it. They would fee not the
spirit of pmy—-political intolerance
would peip under the assumed grab of
promoting the jntereft of rhe association.
Its injustice and impolicy would be evi
dent to the xneaneft capacity, and all
would execrate its author as an infidu
ous foe to their bed interests and pros
perity. Such would be their condu
fions, if one grain of cotffmun sense, or
one (park ol virtue exilled among them.
And yet it is upon this principle—this
dangerous—this vilion *ey principle of
