FRIDAY, JULY 7. WE give to-day the frantie man ifefto of the Allied Powers—we give it as a political curiosity, and as an eminent example of “ the pitching and plunging of defpotiftn in distress.” If any thing was wanting to fix and confirm the em pire of Bonaparte in the hearts of the French nation, this profeription of the people, this avowed design of bending per force their necks to the Bourbon yoke, in exasperating their pride, mud annimate their patriotism ; and in bracing all the energies ct that great nation, mud make it invincible. Strange, that the allied powers should have so soon forgot the mi racles of milchief to their caule, produced by the proclamation ot the Duke of Brunlwick at the com mencement ot the revolutionary druggie. l Me Reverend Mr. Jennings, in a late difcourie to his congregation, laid, “Ij all democrats were not horse thieves, all horse thieves were democratsl his is in the true New-England Clergical cant, nor is it the lead ipcciineii ol their total want ol candor and decency: With a imajl exception vve might jultiy retort — If all villains and hy pocrites are not blew England Cter gy/nt/i, all the New England Clergy are villains and pacrites.
