IP'ho are Foreigners ?
(From the Ma.i.chusetti MJt ]
Tlic tedfraliits of this lec
-1 tion of the United braces are
| always declaiming againtl
foreigners. The confc- j
quence is, that the great in- |
, tiux ol eriiigrrttion has been j
: dnected Iduthward, ani the j
laiiie tederaiifts aie complai- |
mng ct the rapid growth of |
cthei Hates, as giving them '
!an undue weight in tne U
j nion. In the town of BuL
ton, a foreigner, unless he j
be an Englishman, he is |
treated with negiedt and
i contempt. Bolton is decli
ning: while New-Y'ork is
i
fiouriflnng. Lis allonilh- !

from a mixed aflociation
with periods of all nations,
become generally more lib

nations. She by degrees
lubjedted them t© her laws
and became, in arts and
4
commerce even a rival of G.
Britain. No one thing was
ever so conducive to the
| wealth and greatness of Eng
;land, Italy, fee. as the in
jfl ix of Frenchmen after the
revocation of the edi&s of
Nantz. Isa foreigner conies
hers, he puts himl'olf under
fub’edtion to all the regula*
tions to which our own cit
izens aie required to con_
j form. He can easily obtain
a flip port, in tiie liberal
profelfi jqs, in husbandry or i
in the manufactures. He *
has therefore few tempta
tions to vice, and, however
I had may have been his for
-1 mer habits of life, will pro
j bably be a good citizen here.
| His skill and labor are not
| only of private but public
utility,, and the count.y L
(Lengthened and improved
by his aid. Why then flu I
hr be branded as a renega
de ? Why fhoil the name
°* Irilhman, Frenchman or
Genevan, he used as a term
of reproach ? The man who
has fl;d his country, who
lias abjured his return, and
. adopted another, is not a
foreigner to that other.
Wftere his affedtions are,
where is the allegiance of
his heart, there is his coun
try. Those who reproach
him with being a fo
reigner, are in reality much
more so t/un he it, and in
that view there are many
more foreigners in Bolton
than in N. York or Fniia
delphia, which are fllled
with inhabitants from all
j quarters of tile globe. That
j narrow minded spirit of
| which we are (peaking, is
| too pernicious in its effects
j to admit of its b.ing palled
| without reprehension, or
from regard to the character
of fvl*lTachufctts, we (hould
have left it unnoticed.
Were it not for that our
j factories might be filled with
( skilful a.-aids and our fulds
, w ‘ l h able laborers, at a much
: cheaper rare than they can
:be at prefewt. Indeed rna-
I ny improvements, of which
! we are now totally ignorant
| would undoubtedly be in
' troduced, which would be
of

Ihe cultivation of the vine

is now carried on entirely by
foreigners. The inipvrtanr
art of dying, and many o
thers which might be enu
merated, arc also almost
solely confined them.

and encourage them. Mo
tives of iclfifhnefs alone, if
we have none of patriotifni,
ought to be fufficient to in
duce us to do so. The con
lequences of nut doing it are
more important that moll
people are aware of. They
will be felt by fuccceding

GENERAL ORDER.

Adjutant Csnerai’a OlF.ce, Mth J'lly IBtf.
An exprds was received
at King (ton, on the 2c:h
i nil ant announcing that a
brigaded tiaiteaux, loaded
with provift.ins, under the
convoy cfa Gun Boat of the
fecund class, has been sur
prised and captured at dav
oreak, by a party of she en
emy, who had eroded the
enemy in two armed sloops.
Three gun boats wc.te im
mediately di (patched rrotii
Kmgfton ur.der the com
mand of Lieut. Scott, Roy
al Navy, with a view of in
tercepting the enemy if they
ihouid attempt to pais by the
South file of the river, and
a detachment of the iooth
Regiment under capt. Mar
tin, proceeded by the nor
thern channel. The parties
united below Long island,
and hiving learnt that the
eueny had carried the cap
tured Batttaux in Goose
creek, they immediately
puflied for that place j but :
before they go fight of tne
enemy's (loops, the evening
was so tar advanced as to
pieclqde the puflibdny of
attacking them before uaik.
It was therefore determined
to defer it until the enluing
morning, and the Gun-
Boats returned to the en
trance of the ftnam, wheie
they met a detachment of
the 41 it regiment with a
Gun Boat under Mai Fried,
> *
who alfjmed the command
of the whole : and at three
o’clock in the morning pro
ceeded up the creek in the
hope of g lining the enemy’s
pofltion by the break of day
when it wa3 difeovered that
the enemy haS removed
their (bops fe/eral miles
higher up the creek, where
the channel become so nar
row that the Gun Boats could
j not u(e their oars, nor turn
1 so as to bring their guns to
bear upon the bank—and
their further progress was
here impeded, by large
trees felled across the dream.
In attempting to remove
those ob facies, the party
was bred upon by thelloopt,
and from a gun in a log

erefted on tiic left bank, aa <

Irong poii:ion.
