AMERICAN WAR. This war, as appear# by •advices frern America, has been further marked by eur iuccefs by la«d and •ur fail- j ure by fca. I will call it disgrace ©r defeat; but an American Sl#©p ©f War has *9W defeated an Ecglifli bl©op ©f War Ur the fkond ■ time. S© that ©winjj to so ne cause «r other, thj A- ; mtrican Navy up«n rhinal j terms, really fssms to h\v« gained the fuperi©rity. In the meanwhile, howereri it j is Rated, that, threu gh c\:e means of the Mediation of Kujfja, an opening for a nlp gociation for peace is likely to take place: But from tht I language of ©tir vile nevvi paper editors wiiieh. appear to hate the Americans for \ no ether caafe than that they ar# not flavc«, little hopes leem to exist of a happy fe- 1 In It. The article t© which I allude Was in the following words; “ Captain Bedford, as we 1 dated ye’tcrday, has brought j iii« oSacial norificftti©n ©t &« •fter ©n the park of Ruflia t© mediate hstvreen this country and America. IVc kofe it inllkz rejufed , indeed wc are lure it will. We have th« highefl refpc& f©r the Ruffian government, the warmest admiration of its prowess, but we have a love for «ur pre-emi nence that cannot bear to have it even touched by a foreign hand. Raffia, can hardly be fappefed to be very atvetle to the princi ples ofthe armed neutrality, I and that idea a!®nc would be fufficient t© make us Oeclinc the offpr- Cut without dif cafling that point we must make our flan© upon this— never to commit our naval rights ti the mediation of any p'rjter. This ii the dug we mult na 11® the national mast and ge doven rather tbsn strike it» Before tin's wa 1 “ hold THE mirror up to NATlßE— Shakesfeare. commenced, cencefli*n might bars been p:®per: we always thought it unwise. Bat the hour «/ cancel/; *n and ctmprmise is faffed', A n eri ca has rallied anneceflarily and unnaturally int® war, and (he tnuft be made tijeel the effects if her Jolly **./ /*. ! justice , Peace aui:i he riac ( confequcnce of punijkmint % *C ! retraction of her inlblcauic f maids mult precede ' tion. The thunder of our ■! icannon must fir it strike ter- ! | tor into the American ihurcs, land Great Britain mult be [ l'een and felt in a!i rh* my- ‘ ijefty of her might, from ! Kofton to Savannah, from ! the Lakes of Canada to the j ! Mouths of the Mrilhfiippi. | •; And before this article goes forth to the world, her can ! non have been heard and j her power felt. The clam -1 orous demagogic, of Amer ica, the turbulent democrats , the noisy advocates far war With us, th« pretended pat riots of America and the re al part if ans of France , aflame now another tone. Their papers n® longer (peak the i language of boalf and me* , nacc. Fear prevades their ; towns on the lea coast—A larm prevail ia all quarters , j They are more intent upon J moving their property than ! in making head again# the dinger: and though they b®afted that they woulJTup* , port Government with all their means and resources, , I with their trcaluies oc their blood, trie Government 1 cann®t, in the Hrlf year of Itho war, raifi a loauol four ',nii!li*ss sterling! Thtfej jars the immediate conic- j ' bueneds of a war entered ia i ft> t® # ratify the palTions of hatred and envy yf England and to propitiate France.” And, is this the language jof peace, is it? It would , leem, that writers like this feanid nothing so much as an end to that war, which ; has already brought m>ir« difgracc upon the Biiiiib' j navy, than all the wars ir. which wc were ever before j engaged. If would really ; i seem that these men were j ; pail to endeavor to cause au I American Navy to be crea ted. Whit ether object can they hav* in view, in thus goading the Americans cm the hoilihty ami hatred, | 1 caneot eonceive, I am • fare, that the Tints, news - paper; by its (enfelefs abuse of Ale: Million and the Cowgrels staid its infelent and contemptuous language towards the Amirican peo ple, did much in producing j this fatal war. Paine has j fa id that it is the la 7 feather that break* the horse’s back ; and vrauld it be any won der, if thus base print, by that inf#lence, thole taunt ing menace::, in which it dealt & few months before the war was declared, was the hijtfeather upon occali on ?—lt fp©k* ©f the Anu ricans and their navy in a j llrain ©t contempt not to be | endured. It told them that | their boasted Nervr vvomU be , towed <nf© Ililriac in n ' »»©nio from th< ©ate of their ' declaration or w* r , j t (that it hated other enemies jof England 5 but that Mr. i Madilon and his nari©n j were unworthy ©f any thing ! but c©meniot. It was im jpulfible.lor any nation f© I P'H up with this. Libels j the uiolf aitrociotn were j publiihed agaiuA Mr Madi ion and all his brother offi cers in rbc government. The ©aval ©fficcrs of Amer ica were spoken ©fas if they were dogs. In that c«un ; L*y Tse people have fomethiag to lay as 10 public affairs ; and is it n*y that luck publication* should produce an effetf: amongst thee©, v/ 10 read every thing, and who well u»derftand i - y ha( they tead ? Tie Pie- wc find kas inffantly, 1 and with great avidity, ac j cepud the mediation of Ruf, j f « is a very plain man. W ears 6r 11 ltd to wear a grey coat, and his r©.pow<leird hair vtry smooth. He had , n > big wig, nor any g©wng, or any ulher fine thi»g a ; bout hi«i. But he ftomi to kiiow w y well what he is about. Indeed, all he has ! to know, is, what the peo ple wijh, and that he kn©ws by their v©tcs. He knows, that they hate war, as the 1 gr«it and Luitfui pirettc ©f taxation 3c arbitrary p©wer ; and to pleale their., he mufl avail hiinfelf efc/«ry thing that offers even a ckaac© of putting an end t© tbs war' on just and honorable terms. But, as you lee, our hir«- • lings exclaim agaiafl: the ac ceptance of any mediation j even the mediar:*n of Ful fil, who has committed her fleets to our hands. For once let us hope that theft | men do not speak tht lan guage of the government, j If vve refufe the mediation of ©ur only ally in the war: if vre refute the metution of that power, who wc fay, is ' about to deliver Europe, and us from the fears ©f Bona parte, what will that power what will the world ia) of j our cause ?—We are not, it i feeins, " to commit our' naval rights to tne media- j tion of any power.” But th is is not propoled. The j Americans do not dispute any tiling heretofore ac k.iowhdgtd by them, or contended for oy u?, as a < right. i lie tfii ig vve con- . mm nr Min •wmrwmjm Jftail tor is, the p>f*aic€ cf imprejing p e rf ont fm boaH i neutral lhips on the *‘gi (sas. ] hi, tne Americans deny tp be a right ; They l<iy it never was before prac i ticed, or contended for, or ! claimed by any belligerent ) nation ;• they lay, that by iho writer on public law • | no principle ever laid ,down by fetch writer; by | no recognition of any jtaw •r_.« by no pactic«, by no ■allertipn of ouri is j this acl jn (lifted. In flrort | they lay, that it has neither |hw, precedent nor rcafoa tor its bafi'i. if they afTart j m this refpc&, what is not j iroe, why not prove it ? ! Why not cite us the book, | the treaty the document, the ; principle, the precedent up lon which we ground this | tract*;? No one attempts to do this; and untill it be done, what impudence it is ; to isy we pofofs such a ! right ? ! Agreeably to all the prtn ciplefQtjuriiprudericc, whea a man claims a right to do j which is, on the face of ! the thing, a treflpafs upon another man, he muil firflt * prove his right. There may , be in John a right to pass a cross the field of Junes ; hut having now for the fir ft i . • I time, begun to exercise this right, it is incumbent upon him t oprove it in the way of defence again!! an attion J « and, it he can* I rint prove it j if he can (how neither written deed# noc i bring evidence of precedent or custom, he fu/Fers tU a trefpalTci. Apply this to the cate before u*, and will any one fay, that, in order tojuftify a war for such a practice, we ought not to produce something in prof jof our right ? lam for giv ing op no naval right of England; and, if any one will show me any treaty, a ny declaration of any power, and recognition, any maxixrt cf any writer upon the pub lic law, or, any cujlom or precedent of any power in the whole world, to jufti/y our imprelfrncnt of perfonk on j board of neutral fltips on the high foas, 1 will fay, that our lafl foot ought to be fi red, rather than cease our pra&ice of impreiinieHf. Can I lay more ? Cm 1 £«* further? Will justice or rcafoß allow me <o go fo r * ther than this? 'I be A mericaes will fay. li| at 1 ! much too far; but 1 arn I Englilbina* enough f e* thi* length.
