E&rdZ from a letter received by the

rffieP ability, dated at Paris.
u fhe embargo was the moft
fortunate me afore ever adopted by
a wifi* and prudent government, Sc
it appears as if fhe finger of Provi
dence pointed it ouf, and it is with
the moft extreme furprife that I find
there are perfpns among you, com

ment fur adopting the only alterna
tive left them, to go to war wi h all
Europe at once, or to fulpend for
a while all interCourie with them,
and keep at home our veflelr, me r-
chandize and Teamen. I wvfii the
diicontented (but I prefume, they
are few, end they ft s reifjr.ets or
; needy fpecuktors) could be tranf

find ihed fference. Be aflurtd the
IJ. Stares has the stfeatefl catife to
be thankful to Divine Providence
for their exemption from the imle
i ries and wars to which the greateft
f part of Europe is expofed. It is
i believed the English government
1 are determined to aft upon the or- :
, ders of the jirh pf November,
* without any modification. I truft,
-and that too, with the proud confi
-1 dence of an American, aff fticnare-
Ty attached to his beloved country,
, that this infamous and novel inter
'■ fere nee- with our innocent corn
i nierce and independence, will meet
, the ipintecl and determined opposi
tion of our government and coun
try. Can the -United States eo;>
lent to pay a duty on vtfT. Is laden
wholly with their own product, and
be obliged, to enter Engiifh ports
and take but clearances ? 1 will ,
anfwer in fhe name of our country
—they never can without returning ■
to that ftae of flavery from which \
our fathers relieved us. . If we are ■
bale enough to lubmit to this de- ;
grading fl.tvery, I will fay that this 1
government is perfectly correct in ;
feizing every veffcl navigating with ;
an Englifli clearance, I am confi
dent that the good fenfe. of our ci- 1

the wifdcrn thatdiftated the embar

GEO. PASCHAL,
; The public have been amufed
fame time in reading feme fcurilous
pieces from Capr. Watkins and my
ielf, if they will look at the above
account they may fee the bafenefs
of him in borrowing my herfe and
running him ci tF Hie gentleman
on the 14th of May applied to rne,
as I kept a boarding houfe, to know
what I would board him at for one
year—l informed him I would
board him for one hundred dollars,
which he agreed to give. Not be
ing in the habit of denying gentle
men of my family To ftnall a fnvor
as a horfe to ride a couple of miles,
I granted his requeft, on his pro
m firg on his honor to return him
the next morning. The captain
infmuares ‘in his piece that I would
never be able to pay him for his
cotton. Strange indeed, when he
is already paid before he borrowed
my horfe. He further fays, that he
believed 1 intended to waylay him
and take his life privately. No
wonder his timorous imagination
teems with phantoms and errarts
numberiefs terrors to itfelf. His
guilty confcience no doubt inform
ed him that ht deferved to die, as
all other plunderers of horfes ought.
Njo doubt but the gentleman feels,
the goads and flings of confcious
guilt pierce through his bafe bofem.
And tho’ he may think himfelfexal
ted to a height that bids defiance to
j eft ice, and fhrir.ks beneath the lew
arts of cunning chicanery and falfe
hoed j yet the irjured ghoft of
Croppo* will arreit him in his foli*
tary hours, and in his midnight de
baucheries. I could fay a great
deal more, but I conceive ic not
worth while to be a writing with a
man of his dtfpicable character.
