NOTES UTON HENRY.
When we firft received Henry’s
and fclofurrs we ciid not fuppofe that
they would furprife any thinking
man in the country, much lefs tns;
any one would attempt to contro
vert the faft which they devel p-.
What is there extraord nary in the
z t- mpt to divide the Union by a
power that plunders our ftrps and
fleals our feamen ?
Henry’s expsfures are laid to be
forgeries, becaufe Mr. P t 'ei*3 Lrrcr
refers to a correfpondeoce in 1808
inftead of 1809. The C won >i i
gieal order is r gular enough in fpite
of the quibblers. Hmry had two
mifli ms, one in ISOB, the other in
1809. He behaved lo well in ‘he
firft; that it procured his a;*p lint*
mcnc to the fecond. L >rd L'vrr
pool, in referring to Henry’s fr
vices, went ha k to the beginning „
that is in 1808.
It would not have been polite in
the lord Liverpool t® have referr-d
t > Elenrv’s correfp mde ice in 1809,
becaufe in that year Henry was hoc
fucccfsful. In 1808 he had g v-u
more fatisfaftion, and ihatwaso'e
reafon, we prefume, why the noble
lord referred to that year.
I ! 1808 H nry dealt in /peculati
on, in 1809 ne fet out for practice
H~ feems to have iucceeded u-tter
in tne former than the latter; ahi
lord Liverpool, following he o nt
*f H nry’s ; nius, paid him in a
fpeculalive way.
The angrr of the federal prin's is
accounted lor fr.>m their convifti n
that the people will abandon them.
They are not (it to lead who fo c-m
---duft themfelves that fore go nati >us
think them capable of treafon.
Mr. Widgery’s wounded pidge
on has put the whole flick iu moti
on. He certainly (hot with the aim
of an old fpo tfman.
If Cobbrtt deierved a gold, his
fucceflbr at Baltimore* merits a di
amend ftatue. Sosne rhi„lc
he s affu.ed of one from lVod\.
* /he Editor ef the ms ft didingui fe
ed Lory paper in this ft ate need not bs
chagrined becaufe he is not coupled
with the fcoundrel Wagner in this
note. HVe are cenftd nt that Mr.
Rleafants was ignorant of his merits
—or he would certainly hive been no
ticed. IVe can a Jure him (if he has
net keen already officially offered)
that the Britifh miniflry will not un
derrate his fervices —and that they
may, as a token if their approbation,
confide to him the government of Ber
muda—Unlefs, indeed , the infulted
citizens of this ftate fhnuld , prior to
the accompliibrnent of England's bafe
defigns , put on him a Robe of a more
adh* five nature, than any which can
be precured from the Bntifh manu
factories The infiilt which may be
implied by this o miff on, we can affure
our little hero, was not intended—for
although he may not be fo ardent as
the Baltimore Federal Republican
man in his exertions for the “ befi of
Kings*'—yet, his fervices are juftijr
appreciated by the great body of Re
publicans in tb'is and our fifter
fiaies — -and, no doubt , duly reward
ed. by the advocates for the advance-
m c nt of the,glory and dominion of
“ Britain's fajt anchor'd ijle.”
