NATHi. MACON, Speaker of the House of Reprefeitta lives, jOS ANDERSON, Frefident of the Senate, pro tem. Approved, March 3, 1805. TH; JEFFERSON. From the MonITEUB. Speech of Mr, Regnaud, France is invulnerable in ail parts of her imnisnfe territory ; (he has nothing to fear from her advanced polls either in the wind ward islands, or in the indies. England is every where vulnerable, and without apprpaching near her, we can in flict upon her deep wounds, the conference of which would be cncrcaflng distress, or violent rcnvulficn. Our fleets at lireft, Toulon, and Roche, foit are armed and in readiness to pais the ocean ; our flotillas are already to accompany t!icf< fierce children of war, whoknow noob ftaelesj inasmuch as they have overcome what ever had aftonithed the moil intrepid. We continue to have on our coast soldiers who dwell in/ camps instead of cavern?, become as intrepid Teamen as they were brave soldiers. While during this time the English popu lace are in arms, dtfturbed, fatigued, weakened and difeouraged. Our rcfources and revenues arc equal to our expences, and we have no need of any other extraordinary rcfource than what is drawn from our territorial riches. While in England the intcuft pair! to the money lenders, absorbs every possible means of completeing their levy en mr£e, which weakens the ration without defend ing it. While this fltuauou is prolonged, and ( 't * ’ -f £V«t. XIX. No, 9 ?a the Englifb cabinet look for the advantage* which arc to rcfiilt from it, danger and shame are equally their Jot. Need I fpcak of those fccret expeditions, which have far these three month* impofvd • thc'crejl of the people ol England, and winch" Have, terminated in ridiculous and fruirlcfs attempts. . Have they embarked fame troops, (0 strengthen the garrison at G J braltar, de ttroyed by epidemics ? Or do thev wilh to canduft fume iccruits to the Indies ? Or foms reinforcements to Ceylon, where the English have loft a great deal ? Or are they rather dt/pofed to fend feme thousands of men to Jamaica, to repair the ravages made by the yellow fever to fortify the garrisons in the Eug’.ilh colonies, threat ened by 3 or 40*0 men, which can be sent egamftthem from Martinique {Sc Gaodaleupe. When these ordinary meafurcs fhali have been arranged, the gov eminent is then left to think on the formidable armaments which are threatned by France. Forfome time and with great mystery, they have announced the of vtf-. fds loatlen with Hones to fill up oar ports, and tire ihips baldly launched our flotillas. * Ami in Ibort, what other expedition «,a the English attempt? Da they desire de barking on our wellern coast, to try how the national guards, united to our garrisons in ti ne of peace,, would receive them on their arrival «n<J prevent their return, Lords of the ocean for two years pad, thtir fleets have wearied the ocean and the Mediterranean j their foldicrs have not dared to repose in any place; prefect al every coast, they have only call out robbers* Instead of these vain and delusive expedi tions, fappofe, gentlemen, the 2,8*000 me* at Bz-cflj rhe 5,000 at kocuefort, ihc 12,000 at Toulort, and the 25,000 in ths Tcxel, (bnald proceed, in one party, again ft Ire land, avid Jamaica, or the Indies; 01 Tap, pose that 200,000 men, which the vcflels of our flaulhs c-Juld carry, -Thould pass over in one night, threaten and arrive at the op pbfue bank, where their impatient courage has for a long time wished toflgnalise irfdf ; fuppifewhir is flill more fim -le and cafy, that 53 frigates, and 60 vessels of other defcrlpcioas, which have been htiilf, armed and equipped in the Apace of two years, (bould fail in small squadrons, Icour the fca«, dry up the fource# of proTperity and life, by the aid of which England can alone maintain her exiftencc; were hut a fault part of those fuppoficions realized, we (h)iild every where fee these terrible dan gers uncountcrpoifcd against England. It was then with this impression of th* honor of bis people and his own ftrengtli, that the emperor found a motive far once more speaking the language of peace. It is with such vast plans, the probability of whose fucccfs amounts almost to certainty, since that which olf-rcd no danger, w: s productive of real fucccfs: it was with this vast and extensive view which embraces ths whole extent of his resources, and ail the poflhle means of unfolding them, that his ;n;jj -fly has taken a step difgraccful to am* nation governed by any other chief, difgracefui to any leader having the com mand of any other people. Bur can the confidents in the ifiue of the war with England be shaken by any uncer tainty with refpeft to the continental re lations of France I If this had been the case, gentlemen, what could his majesty have hoped from a step taken under fach circumstances. The hiftory of hr, life at lefts that nobody knew better than him, .how to take advantage of a favorable opportunity, If the continental war had aflamed a threatening afpeft, Napoleon well knew that he had no other pa/t to ad tha a the terrible, though ncceflary one, of throwing a fide the fcabb ird of his sword always vkiorioas, and make his new lance of Achilles shine in the eyes of the world, inftcad of debating the just pride of his fortune by propositions, which, dictated by fear and preferred through weakness, would have promtfed only hamiliatibftin their consequences. Happily, under this afpecl of our foreign relations on rke continent two years have produced coflioHng and honorable ameliora tions. The seizure of Hanover v/as indispensably neccffiry. The emperor wished if, com manded it and carried it into effzfl, (19 hi ii.itl/iiiffi'J x
