For the Gazette of the United States.
The conduct of the powers at war is such
that an American cannot but feel for the ho
nor and fafety of his country. The report of
the Secretary of State, as well as other note,
rious proof, (hews that we fuffer wronpand
encroachment both from the French and the
Englifli. The feifure and Condemnation of
our vessels in the Weft Indies by the inglifli,
is yet but imperfectly explained to,us, but e
nough is known to convince us that the afpeft
of things is very alarming to our peace. To
loft our (hips and cargoes or to go to war to
R T I S E R.
[Whole No. 556.)
p rote <51 them, is a dreadful alternative. Peace
ought to be the aim of our politics as long as
it can be maintained. Two things are .now
proper—To lay alkie party disputes, and to in
dulge no intemperate passions. Parties now
owe it to their country to (hew their zeal for
the common welf are. Something must be done
but is it doing any thing worthy of* the Crilis,
worthy ot the firm aud confiderata chai after of
our nation, worthy of the neutral station we
have publicly taken, to celebrate French tri
umphs. Is peace our ol jest ? It"it really is*
let ns keep peace—Let u behave like neutrals
and not like p3rtir sin the quarrel. If the dis
asters of the English arms ihould make them
less unjust, or left arrogant, than we think they
are, and if in consequence our chance for'pre
ferving peace should be the more favorable,
every patriot will rejoice in the event. The
f Ifure of our veffeU in the Weft Indies, on the
prerence ot rheir being forfeited by the laws
ot Louis 7 the if it has realty happeued, as
we have the molt alarming ground-: to fear it
has,is a fcttndalous breach of the L*ws of Jus
tice and of Neutrality, which merits our in
diguatiou. Even on that supposition, it is our
policy and our iutercft to iake our meafurel
coolly and cautiously. We must not take coun
fcl of our palfionv—let ua (hew the impartial
world, that We have courted peace in the love
of peace—that they are the aggrefT«>rs and
th t all men ought to wish to fee them hum
bled. What nuidnefs is it therefore, at this
critical moment, for the citizens of New York
to shew their paitizanfhip iji the war. Why
should they ring their bells ? What docs it fay
to the woi Id but that America is an enemy
under a niafk, prose/sing neutrality,yet shew
ing the most ardent paitiality. Is this a
proper time to give a pretext to the Eng
liih who feein to be ready enough even with
out one to violate our rights ? Is it our pru
dence to put into their mouths charges a
gainst our sincerity ? They will not fail to
fay, you are enemies who dare riot to de
clare war and yet fnppofe yourselves entitled
to indulge the passions of enemies—you allow
tin French to fell their priz<sin your ports.
—You refufe the like privilege 10 us—your
newspapers, your public meetings, your toasts
and even y«ur tegiflative bodies, avow your
hatred of us. The ce lebrat ion of French tri
umphs, is done by public order, and at public
charge. This is not neutrality-—it is hostili
ty, and, therefore, we make reprifais. If
we would avoid war, let our prudence refufe
any act of merfling with its events or paflioiu.
Every individual may freely indulge his feel
ings—but, a public parade of them, is peed
lefs —is rash—is iufulting. SEN EX.

Extras of a letter from Captain IVilliam
Bell of the brig Union of Philadelphia,
dated Crooks Haven, River Elbe, No
vember 1, 1793.
" I have the pleasure to inform you of
my fafe arrival here the 29th ult. and am
at present under quarantine on account of
the sickness which prevailed in Philadel
phia, and my having loft one man who
died the second day after I got to sea. On
my passage I was boarded by a French,
frigate called the Flora, they made me
hoilt both my boats out, firft one and
then the other, which stove along fide j
otherwise they behaved well. When near
the Channel, was boarded by a cutter
which I think was from Gurnfey, and be
cause I could not hoist my boat out, they
being told of the reason, they fired two
(hot through my mainsail, one in a dircct
line over my head within two feet of me ;
they at last took pofTeffion of me, fending
an officer and ten men on board, who sent
me on board the cutter where I was de
tained sixteen hours a prisoner ; they
would not even fuffet me to go on deck by
myfelf: the prize-matter on board my vcflcl
ft ruck the Mate, and turned him forward,
that night he broke all the letters open,
and it was with great difficulty the Mate
kept him from deitroyingthem, they drank
my best liquors— rummaged all the chests
and bedding, carried off several valuable
articles of my own, fortunately I had se
cured my money a few days before, 2600
dollars would have been an excellent booty
for them—ln getting from on board the
Cutter, a heavy sea running, I was obliged
to jump a great height, and cut my left
leg moll (hockingly to the bond, carrying
away great pieces of my flefh, and I fear
it will be a long time before 1 git the
better of it."
