MS. rswvo, I IT is to be regretted, that when Farmer Giles j avowed his want of confidence in the President, he had not indulged the house with a detail of the qualities which the Chief Magiftratt of the Unit ed States ought to possess in order to command his support. No man, perhaps, ha. rendered more eiTential services to his country than the late Prefi dent,but withal this he had not the good fortune to plpafe farmer Giles. His fucceflor, who found all the great offices filled, and therefore had nooppor. tunity of overlooking modest mer# in the appeint ' ment.of a Poflmafler General &c. &c. has been e qually unfucccWul in acquiring th« esteem of the Farmer and his Prhiter ! But Ido not relilh his speech to Congress, fays farmer Giles And why ? Bt cause it contains feme unpleasant truths relative to the designs o( our friends the French. What ! : are the difciplcs of Robefplerre, the author of all the atrocities which have tarnilhed the French re . volution, become as it were by magic thechampi r ons of France under her puroft form of govern ment ( This is a point upon which the French na tion ought to be enlightened—because it is more than probable, that the Jacobins in France have not abandoned all hopes, in conjunction with their brethren in America, of giving t* both countries a government, which, by concentrating all powers, i legislative, executive and judicial in the hands of a 1 few men, will revive the reign of terror in France,. ; and extend Che blessings of it to the United States. It is mnft devoutly to be wished, that the firft objedt of the reprelentatives of the people of France after the admifli-in of the new third, may be to as certain the real motives of the. directory for their i hostile condu& towards our nation— a conduct cal culated to give-such courage to the enemies of rc preientative govt rnmrnts—nay, to hazard the very ( existence of republicanism. It will behove them to enquire in the real character and designs of that profligate fadtion in this country, who have abet ted the directory ill their Wicked project againit the cause of liberty, and who have had the impu dence to style themselves the eidafivc friends of the French revolution. Tken, and not "till then, Hull we be able to. account fpr the following incom prchcnfible paradoxes First—Why the creatures of the directory were so anxious to have far Prefi fident, a man who was leagued with the miniflers of Louis the fifteenth, in the honed scheme of fell ing for a song, the debt due from the United States to France—which deht ha: been since fully and ho norably discharged. Second —Why those persons, whole habits are decidedly anti-republican, and ' , who in defiance of the example of France, contin ue to kold in bondage mare than half a million of their fellow men,,fhould be eternally bellowing in favor of liberty and equality, and withal so fearful of offending the directory. Third—Why frandu lant bankrupts, Britilh debtors, fugitives from jus tice, detestable traitors, and generally all men of infamous chara&er, have been iuvariably carefied by the agents of the directory, to the great scan dal and disgrace of the French nation. And lastly —Why the great majority of the people of the U riited States, who, whijft they wifiied well to the Frertch revolution when progrefling towards liber ty by rational means, but who deplored the exceff i es committed by the jacobins,—-fhouU be basely 1 charged by the friends of those very jacobins, with ' being enemies to France. If I were to hazard an opinion as to the proba ble result of such an enquiry, it would be, that a sum equal to the expence of one campaign in Eu rope has been fcattend from Nevv-Hampfhire to Georgia by the agents of the directory and their : predeceflors—not to conciliate the fri.ndfllip of the great mass of the people of America, becauie in s corruptible—but to prep the tottering'edilice of jacobinifm in France, by fe'uring the co-operation us an army of mercenary janizaries on this fide of the water, in some new oiterprize against the peace', happinefsand liberty 01 the two nations.
