Washington, December 1. :
The Rev. Mr James E. ‘Welch,

The feeling of the legitimates of
France towards us,.is strongly portray
ed in a letter from Bordeaux, which we
this day publish. We cannot but be
lieve, however, that the French people
generally refpedf our government : A
reciprocity of sentiments and principles
for many years interwove their inter
ests with ours, and even Bonaparte, un
til forced to the contrary, as a counter
check to British measures, acknowledg
ed our worth, and regarded our prol
•perty.
The hostility of the French Royahjls
towards the United States Ihouui cre
ate no wonder at this time, nor much
regTet ; as all monarchies are inimical
to republics very little, or no faith
fliould be placed in their alliance or
friendlhip ; they cannot, consistent
with iruth, with prosperous principles
which are so much at iflue with their
own From France we have nothing to
fear Though the jealou. interievence
of England Ihould divert her sympathy
from us, or raise in her bosom a dispo
sition tepulfive to our friendlhip, her
powers of annoyance are too weak; her
days of triumph are over ; and her pre
fers agitated state, bespeaks those even
of her national exigence numbered
Os England we should be cautions
Our late contest with her has {lamped
with indeliable chara£lere, her une
qual claim toevry auifice, cruel & un
warrantable. In open and equal con
flicts w*h us, file must ever (brink from
our fu.ierior rkL) and biavery, but in
those means, bribery and intrigue, by
which (lie has so often triumphed
in the overthrow of Other nations, we
are difquailfied by nature and by pract
ice to cope with her in hopes of any
possible chance of r uccefs Open violation
ol right, {hould cell for open avowal
of hostility—then be the war between
two nations, honorable as between two
gentlemen. Oursftia'ti ever be such...
the righteous fight—the word of battle
justice—no burning of houfet, no rav
ishing of women, no imffacree of prfon

0 Since writing the above, we*
have received the oppreflive news,
that an English seventy-sour has
wantonly funic the United States*
brig L'Epervier, and consigned her
brave litte crew to a watery grave!
Are such matters to be tamely pall
ed over ? is the government always
to be on the temporiling fide ? the
spring of retaliation to be forever
bent down, or will it rife at this
sanguinary ad, with renovated
force ? Can any American read
this deed, and not feel disposed to
vengeance ? ll Cry havoc ! and let
dip the dogs of war ” until ample
expiation is obtained through the
Unices of English. blood—They
must be taught to respect those by
Whom they would be refpe&ed.
