Capt. Lawrence, by cap

An American Hornet sting

Ptnejl birds are not always

Judging fiom the great
havoc made on boafd the
Peacock, and the little injury
sustained by the Hornet,
Capt. Lawrence need not
have avoided an a&ivn with

but little honor from a vic

It has frequently been said ;
in the federal papers, that
the very mjen who are fight
ing our battles 6c vmquifh
ing our enemies by fjH, are
denounced by the Republi
cans as Tories. This is not
true. Republicans cunfid
er and treat x none as tones,
but such as take part with the
Britiflj government againfl
their own . Such were con
sidered and treated as tories
during our firft coateft for
independence—and such con
auft is at least as bad now
a* it was then, and those
who are guilty of it are as
deserving of this reproach-!

The tone of the Britilh
prints is greatly lowered
dince the commencement of
tills war. Then they treated
nor navy with the uunoll
• contempt and derision { now
they tpeak of it with afton*
K ifhmcnt and alarm $ then
.they allowed us but hand-
Jful of fir-built frigates man
. ned with bastards and out
llaws”— now, they deferibe
.our frigates as “ seventy

tempt to claim kindred with
our officers and seamen!
. When our army (hall have
.equalled our navy in Iplen
•did achievements, which

probably be willing to make
j peace with us on equitable
jand honorable terms.
It is said by an historian
of Petere the Great, that
f 4 ' the battles he loft rendered
him a conquerer on the
whole by adding experience
to his courage.”— J u st fa w «

An officer, who has been
in the American service,
state that the crew of the
frigarcs Prefidcnt, United
Statss, and Constitution,
have been fix years infor

the feletfiou of prime tea
men, and if sny man who
entered did not prove to be
what it was termed •« a tho*
rough bred teaman/* he was
invariably sent away. Tltd

crews, for the time mention

accuracy of firing in thefiiipi
