Milan, 10 Germinal , 30 March,
The commander in chief,
Scherer, writes to citizen Ricaud,
ambaffador of the Republic at
Milan—
« Ycflcrday I gave you an
account of a viftory, obtained
by the French on the Adige, (it
is the fame which has been pub
lished it Paris by order of the
dire&ory) to-day I open my let
ter to anaouncc one much more
important.
“ For fom« days, large bodies
cf artTery and other troops had
defiled towards the Adige from
the Tyrol; the impend army
occupied a camp before Verona ;
the fortification had been fur
nithed with a large quantity of
artillery and a numerous garri
fou. The citizens had, at the
fame time, received orders to lay
up provifions for many months,
or to quit the city ; every thing
announced that it was the deter
mination of the Auflrians to
maintain and defend this pod to
the laft extremity.
French valour has over
turned their plan. A courier
arrived this morning, brings an
account of a battle alike bloody
and ooflmate, which took place
m the enviVons of Verona. The
held of battle was covered With

To THE PUBLI C,
THE okjeft of this publication
is to collcß , preferve , ani dijfemi
nate the valuable produHions of
the Republican ptn, in all parts of
the Union ; the extreme necrjfity for
fitch a publication , and the beneficial
cf fells which might rcfult from it,
if well conduced, will he readily
allowed.
The American people hate long
enough been impofed upon by the
pretended impartiality of printers;
it is all dtlufion ; every pa y ty will
have its printer , as well as every
fell its preacher ; and it is as in
congruous for a publication to be
alternately breathing the fpirit of
twoparties, or for aparfon to preach
to his audience chrifUanity in the
morning , and pagamfn in the even
ing ; it is inconjifient as for a chief
magiflrale to name an ambaffador
to fettle a difpuie with a foreign
nation , and immediately to violate
the laws of civility , and make moc
ktry of religion , by heaping upon
the fame nation and its repi efenta
iives, the vilejl philippics , fcurnlity,
and abufe > in a proclamation for a
day of fafling and prayer:—Every
Editor who is capable of faring
above the flattery of villainy , and
the adulation of folly , has too much
1&t flake in the conicf l oj liberty
! Againjl /lav try, virtue again/I vice ,
and truth againft fophifiry , to admit
oj impartiality .
In the profccution of the plan of
this work t it will be neceffary to
take [o much of a relrofptUive view
of the a/loirs of the United States,
and inh educe fash documents as will
tend to elucidate and expoje the ori
gin > progrejs, and a'arming infu
ence of that fyjlem of iniquity and
robbery, bribery and opprejfun,
hypocrify , and inju/lice , which may
be traced from the attempt of Alex
ander Hamilton , to palm vpon the
convention a monarchical conffitu
twn through the corrupted mazes of
funding and hanking t flock jobbing,
end fpeculating fyflems, down to the
alien and feditirn taws f J. landing
army and navy of the prefent day
It is difficult, in pur filing a cour/e
of /cruhny into the mrafures of go.
vernment, and defigns of men in
office, to draw a line of demarka •
Mon between legal plunder and per
fonal villainy, public repine , and
private intrigue; whenever the
nature of enquiry will admit of it,
perjonal weakne/s and folly ought to
be. lightly but when an
officer of government , annexing
pu lie /rani with private vice , at
the fame time, is wallowing in the
lop of infamy and revelling in the
peculation of the national ireafary ,
the regard for per [oral char a bier
ought to be Jacrijiced to public juf
ti. e.
Being p'ffcffj of the fan and I
principles on wk.ch the national
magazine will be conduced, it only
remains for the people to be informed
of the particular matter which it
; tout contain, to enable them to deter
mine whether they w.ll or will not
/give it their fupport.
