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.

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 ?
