which of tnefe opinions sre moft correct ? Upon the ifiue, we are perft&ly willing to trust the suc cess of Mr. Madison, and upon this issue, we believe that the mind of the people is unalterably formed. ;t is only necefiary to put this ques tion, to decide between the two. Are you in favor of the treaty flgned by Mr. Monroe ? If so, you will, of course, give him your vote, as upon this fubjeCt, he fiands fixed and committed in its favor. If you are not in favor of that rejected instru ment, you will, of course, vote for Mr. Madison, as he fiands fixed and committed against ir. Here, then, is the mighty argument agfmft Mr. Madison, that he is .oppoled to a treaty which every body admits is deficient on the moft important and i: terefting fubjeCt. Thus it is, that you unfairly endeavor to frighten t he people, by insinuating, that if 1 e is ele&ed, the existing evils will not be removed —That be fiands fiixed and committed on all questions invoiced in foreign relations. This argument proves nothing but an extreme want of candor, that you wish to fucced more by inuendo than argument. If you are so much in favor of Mr. Monroe’s treaty* why do you remain in ambush ? Why not come forth openly and plainly, and advance your reasons of attachment to this treaty ? The people would then underhand you, and they would be better enabled to decide whether Mr* Monroe ought to be elected. This is the true and real point of enquiry.— This is the ground upon which the hope of belief is anticipated from the known opinions, conduit andchar alder of Mr. Monroe. The antici pated relief, then, from Mr. Mon roe’s eleftion, would be a confirma tion of the late treaty —a remedy ten thousand times worfc than the disease. Men. It is admitted that the treaty is riot luch a one as could have been wiflbed, but then it was the very bed that could be pro cured. Great Britain will never fuffer us to did ate what treaty we please. But then again, she agreed, that although she would not enter into any express stipulation upon the fubjeCl of impressment, Ihe would iliiie orders to Hop or re fin'd the practice. n> Mad . Thus flue con felted the ir.juftice of the principle, but refut ed to fur render it in any other way, than to depend entirely upon her good humor, grace and courtesy. Because we cannot didate a treaty to that, or any other country, it is a poor miserable rcafon, that we should remain tame and fubmiflive to perfidy and violence, and fee our fea-faring brethren kidnapped upon every occasion, without a murmur. That because lhe will not be just, we must give up to her injuft ice. As to the informal un der ft an ding by which her m ini Her s privately confenteu to relax in her impressment, it is the merest mock ery that ever was played eff upon a minister, and indeed, Mr. Monroe had scarcely gotten to the feat of government, before this informal underfilending was denied by the Bri tifti mmifers. Thus, it is evident what our fituacion would have been, if this treaty had been ratified. It is to be prelumed, that after this fire fib evidence of British faith, that Mr. Monroe, if he were eleded, would not again receive your Honor my Lord, as a treaty, when not even ftals and parchment are fufficient. We do not believe that Mr. Mon roe would, but this is the fhndy em inence upon which his friends wilh to place him. We muff take them, however, at their word. And we hope that every voter, on the 7th of November, will bear this ques tion in his mind-—Monroe with a bad treaty, or Ivladifon without. They both ft and fixed and committed. LONDON, Sept. 15.
