Let me then, Americans, after conG
dering the fubje& fairly and candidly, re
collecting that no infuh has yet been of
fered to your Flag, nor hindrance to your
fair trade; but, on the contrary, that the
umbrage has feally and bona fide been
given by a few individuals grasping at
riches, however dithoneft the means to ob
tain them 5 and who, in that pursuit, have
not only violated the laws of nations but *
of humanity itfelf. Let me then ask
tinder these circumstances, and considering
how vety trifling the ohjeft appears Vihen
fairly viewed, whether the bleflings of
peace which we enjoy, and which alone
can ensure profpertty to a commercial
country, ought to be hazarded for the ru
inous and uncertain chance of war ? And
for. what ? To support a few imprincJpled
ship-owners in a traffic the most unjust
ever attempted ! To do which you are
not only about to facirifice the landed in
terest totally, but, as the state of wai 1 ro?y
determine, perhaps the lives and fortunes
of your citizens also.

Mr. Fikno,
The inclosed impromptu, was never
prtfented to any Printer before—but ,i*

that piece said to be taken from Davids
Virginia Gazette ; and the other on Joljri
Adams's vote—the truth is } I never sept
' those pieces to any Printer, before I did
to Mr. Oswald, but I thdugfit the preface
which I sent to him, would make people
read my verses. So I took a fort of poe
tic*! license, and said as I did,you can fee
the piece in Oswald's Paper,of April sth,
which I will) yo.u would pyblifti, as I find
it pleases people prodigiou/ly. I take jt,
a'n impromtu, upon which a poet studies
' a great wliile,ni3f be more correct,but Ido
f not believe it can have more genius in It,
5 than one written off hand, a 6 a body may
fay ; now this impromtu, which I
- yoa, is one of the last description, those
