Thefe are powerful caufes in the minds of the Britifh faction, why the U. States fhould com mence war with France ; more efpecially as England has declar- P. esident of the United States. The conflitulicm of this officer i very peculiar. He is the Executive Department, without the appenda ges which arc ufually attached to the chief magi (Irate in Cither fpecies of government. He has no con trol of the national purfe he can not declare war, nor can lie make a treaty, without the concurrence of other branches of the government. The patrons re of appointint^to of fice is qualified bv the provilions of the conrtitutioii which renders the advice and content of the Senate neceffary to the PeifeRion of tli.it patronage In fact, a prefident of the United States, ll'tiding alone, is a powcrlefs officer, whofe influence i.i not fo great as. that of a cougrefs- naan in his diltri£t; Chit, ailing in concert with every branch of the government, he becomes the Man of the People, in tire conllitution.il fenfe ol the phrafe, and more ra tionally great than the moll defpotic and magnificent fovereigns of Eu rope or Afia. A Prefident of the United States, therefore, ought ne ver to attempt to effect any thing ’ey intrigue or in a private <tn,zy, bccaue that betrays a want of confidence in the other departments which are af- fociated with him in tire admiilidra- lion of public affairs, and never fails to introduce a fpirit ofjealoufy which thwarts the progrefs of mea fures at every turn. Concealment of opinion on the part of a public func tionary is alfo prima facia evidence of timidity, the bear fufpiciou of which isfuificient to deftroy all re liance upon »b ; e tinder,'landing of rue moll enlightened ftates-man.

In relation to foreign affairs, this doc trine is irrefutable. The Prefident, through his fecretary of (late, cor- refponds with American minitters abroad •, he naturally will receive much information whereupon to found opinions, which neither the form of that information nor the confidential nature of it, will foffer the Prefident to communicate to Congrcfs.
