Letter from ih• jrnerd til chief Bhnuiliarle to

' _ Head ' }\ia'rters{ Mirn, 2 1 Meffi'lor.
I tiave received M. lc Marquis, the letter
from M. de Priocca, miniiler of his Sardin
ian majesty, which you had thegoodnefs to
forward to me.
[, in coniequerice of it, gave orders to
(he general of dirifibn Souret, and to the
general who commands at Cuneo, to allow
a free access into the fertreffes of Tortons,
Alexandria, Ch'erafco, Ceva, and Cuneo,
s to an engineer officfr vrhom his majesty
may appoint, to infprft in person the works
which M. de Priocea supposes are carrying
on in these forts : and which, it fliould ap
pear, occasion him some uueafinefs.
The officers who shall be sent by his ma
jesty will be able to assure him, that I carry
on no works in the fortreffes of Piedmont;
that it is impofflble to be more pleased than
we are with the conduft of his majesty's
cabinet towards the French republic ; and
that so far from wishing to give the least
loom for any uneasiness, that on the con
trary I am ready to do any thing his majesty
may require, _ in order to allure him, and
which may contribute to the tranquility and
prosperity of a court, thnt for some months
pr.ft hss give'n us the mod sincere tokens of
its kind intentions towards us.
I have fsnt no troops from Lombardy in
to Piedmont, becaufeit was never my inten
tion to lend any thither. Itideed it were
rr.y with to fend a battalion of Poles to Cu
neo, in order to unite to the army the 45th
derm-brigade. But if his Majesty fignifies
the lea ft defile that such a measure fhoultl
not take place, I will gits it tip ; and I am
alfu ready, if his Majesty is displeased with
any of the generals or officers employed in
his dcrcinirfn, immediately to displace them.
Being informed, that M. Ranfa was en
deavouring by incendiary publications, to
stir up an infurre£tion in his majesty's domi
nions.; and being likewise informed that he
was at Milan, I ordered him to be taken in
to custody, afid to be confined in a castle
of this city.
I entreat you, M. le Marquis, to acquaint
me before your departure from Milan, with
every thing that lean do that may convince
his majesty of the friendly fentinients of the
French republic towards him ; and with the
desire I feel to make myfelf tifeful, and to
contribute to the welfare ofhis majeftys do
minions, and to his own private happiness.
Be pleased to reft affiired of the efte'em and
high consideration with which
I am &c. &c.

Deeply impressed with the interest you

orders thai may still prevail in some of the
Neighbouring provinces. As lam fatisfied
that you will bear with fatisfaflion, that the
Piedmontefe have evinced great energy a
gainst them, I flatter myfelf that I (hall soon
be able to acquaint you, that

A certain great body will in a few days
commence their operations ; when, if some,
stung with the wrongs and indignities of an
injured country, affiime the attitude of
GLADIATORS or of MADMEN, it is
to be hoped we (hall not again fee othen in
the degrading and infultingattitudes of/buf
fers, Proteus's, French hirelings, and trai
tors.
The French Constitution of the third
year, or the third French Constitution, ne
ver received the approbation of the writers
in the Aurora. We know they are prin
cipled against every fyftcm but a put* de
mocracy, a government of one branch, like
that of Robespierre, or the former govern
ment of Pennsylvania.
The late tornado in France, which has
swept away the two representative branches
is therefore approved of by the Aurora, as
a return to a single branch government;
For tho it cannot now be called a represen
tative government, on a purely democratical
plan, yet it may be Queried whether more
than four or five men are not the efficient a
gents in any popular Jtngle branch govern
ment that ever was formed. If demagogues
did not believe, cr know this to be the cafe
they would never clamour for a fimplc de
mocracy.
While the war shall continue in Europe,
it is not probable, or scarcely poflible that
the United States can fuffer more than they
do at prefentby French depredation on their
commerce. It is to be feared from present
appearances, that France does not intend to
alter her couduft altho to an eye of reafonit
would appear that (he has much more to ex
peft from us by a just and honourable treat
ment especially while the war continues,
than by pursuing her present system.
Our government has at present but a
choice of difficulties ; either to interdict fo
reign commerce, or to permit our merchants
to arm. In the latter cafe we (hould pre
serve much property which is now plunder
ed from us by the picaroons in the Weft-In- ,
dies. In the former, we might make our
enemies fuffer, and might possibly bring
them to terms of justice ; but at an inealcu
lable facrifice. Government will probably
wait/the result of the pending negociations. j
All calculations on this point however baf- |
fle eonjedlure for things are'now ftraugely
ordered in France.
It ought never to be forgotten that the
enemies of the government of this country
have been uniform apologists for every atro- ■
city that has been perpetrated by the fuc
cefsfnl faftion of the day in France. They
are now in course, consigning the fallen vic
tims of the dominant fattion to obloquy. It
is to be observed. that while they attempt
to prove that these men were intriguing to !
restore monarchy, they implicate them in all ;
the principal measures adopted for the ex
termination of royalty. It the charaflert
given in the Aurora, of the transported depu
ties are just, it is evident that no men in the
nation would have had less to expeft from a
restoration of the Bourbon family to the
throne than they. If monarchy should ever
be restored in France, it can only be done by
means of the military. It appears that the
diredlory is the only branch of the govern
ment thit has intrigued with the armies.
To *hem the direftory ascribe their success
in the late contest with the legiflativebranch
es. Had the souncils succeeded by the
fame means, the Aurora writers would have
said that the Constitution of France, was
annihilated.
f Almost every member of tl;e Codicil of
"ori, who were ehofen for the new third last
spring, have had their feats vacated by the
directory, after holding them five or fix
months. This " extra-constitutional ftcp"
as the Autora would call it, was not taken,
till the sense of the army was *fctrtaintd.
The condemnacTon of the memhers of the
legiflattire of France, by the diredory, iw.th
oul trial, is juftified by th« Aurora, 011 this
ground. " They would have been found in
nocent by the tribunals. The judges of
the tribunals in Franee"are appointed in the
fame manner, in 'which their legiflatiye coun
cils are, immediately by the people."
Tlus it appears, that the people of France
are not to he truded either in their eleflions
of legislators or judges. Can it be believ
ed that a few royaliits have in almost every
instance coatrouled the fir It free elfidtions un
der the constitution of the third year ? No
—the mod natural, the molt obvious reflec
tion is, that the people of France ivifh for
peace, and a state of internal security, which
seven year's exparience have (hewn them, it
is vafn to expedl so long as their public af
fairs art bandied about from faction to fac
tion. Hence their, election of luch men as
judges and legislators, who were laboring to
bring about peace, in a conititutional way.
For this, they are proferibtd and banished,
without the forms of jultice.
