In like mann r the person of the ex-governor of Guadaloupe was arretted by k proccfs from the American tribunals, to answer a complaint founded upon fads re lative to his adminidration. asd the execu tive direftory wrrc obliged to threaten mak ing use of reprisals before that atfair could 1 take the course whi' h was afligned to it by the law of nations. During the whole space of time of which a review has just now taken, the French • government endeavored in vain to determine the govern ment of the United States to procure to the i agents of the French republic the legal means of carrying into execution the arti cles of the contolar convention of 1788, which granted privileges to oar commerce and navigation, the principle of which was cftabh'flied by the treaties of 1778, and no- ; thing could be obtained in this refpedt, but fruitlefs references to the tribunals. In ge- j ncral, all matters which, with a tr ly con- i cilfat> ry difpolition, might have been fet tled in the way of negotiation wer habit ually referred o the judicial authorities, who whether they were or not under a secret in flurnce, did in the end either deprive the ' republic of ri his funded upon treaties, or ' modified the cxercfe thereof as fuitei the fyfie r adopted by the executive. .Such was the true (late of thing' in the : m nil of . vugtift 1795, when the ratifica ti nof a treaty of amity commerce andna- ' vigati in, fig cd a London in November ' preci'di u T , bet we n the United States and ! Great Britain, filled the measure of the ; ' g: iVvances of the republic. What had been till that period the con- 1 dn.'fl ot the French government towatds the United States ? The undersigned in order to contrail it with that of the federal gov- 1 ernmerit, needs only recall to mind certain fails which surely cannot hive been foro-ot- < ten : 0 , Engaged in Furope by the mod pressing concerns, the Republic had not direfled I lier attention to the United 6tate> unless it was to give them frefh proofs of the mod 1 sincere attachment and friendfliip ; (he It ft i it to 1- er agents amicably to discuss, with ' the federal government, the controversies, a iketc;i of which has just now been given, and < which if they "had been met 011 both fides I with a real fpiiit of conciliation could net I have altered, to the present degree, the I good tuiderftanding of the parties. Scarcely was the Republic constituted when (he sent ] a miriider to Philadelphia, whose firft (lep was to declare to ths United States, that 1 they fhotild not be urged to carry into exe- * cuti<jn the deferfive clauses of the treaty of I alliance, although the exiding circumllances 1 were in the mod unequivocal manner within the Qajus fmderis. Far from viewing this ' conduft in its proper light, the American t government considered it as the acknowledg- ( ment of a right, and in the fame spirit the 1 commiiiioners and envoys extraordinary have 1 met this qucdion in the beginning of their < memorial. Tbe minister of the Republic at r Philadelphia, having given nnealinefs to the f. American government, was recalled with t readiness and his recall was attended with circarn(lances bf ext:eme feveritv. His > fucctiTt.-t carried to the United States all the t repartitions that could be wi(hed for, accom- v with the fincerefl arrd mod friendly a declarations.—Nothing can equal the spirit t of concil ation. or rather condescension, in 0 which his inftruflions were drawn up in re- f latioti to ever > point tiiat hadoccafioned any uneasiness to the federal government, C iti- a aen A (Jet, in the'name of the convention, e corr borated those f xprcflions of good-will, » arid that affeuibly itfelf received with the ef fnfione cf an unbounded confidence and fin- a cerity, the new minifler which the President t ofthe United States sent to them, with the a appa'ent intention of corresponding sincere- c ly with the dispositions which the republic d had never ctafed to evince. si \et it will hardly be believed, that the tl French Republic and her alliance were a/2- f< wily facri/iced at the very moment when (he P was thus giving to her ally iflcrcafed proofs 11 of her attention and regard, and that the h co refp'indiug demonstrations of the Federal P Executive hid no other view but to lull her c and her government into a deceitful security. tl It is nevei'thelefs well known, at this day, h that it wis at that period that Mr. Jay, a who had been sent to London, only, it was then said, in order to negociate refpeQing the depredations which were com- tl mitted by he Briti(l> cruizers on the Amer- si ican trade, was signing a treaty of amity, na « ' vigation and commerce, the negociation and c, figriature of which had been kept a mod n profound secret at Paris and at Philadelphia. • o That treaty was not avowed to our minider c. plenipotentiary until the lad extremity ; and ei it was communicated to him only for form's nr fake, after it has been fan&ioned by t era- ti Ufication of the Senate. When th agents ?< •of the Republic complained of that myde- i 1 (jrious conduft they were answered by .an up- ei pe> Ito the independence of theUmted States " inlemnly eftablifhcd by the treaties of 1778; a .a drange mode of defence againd a com- '1 plaint which the diflimulation which was u- of fell proves to have been but too well ground- ti ed i an iwfldious fubgerfuge, which to the P' jpal point of the qnellion fubditutes a gen- te eral principle, which the Republic could tl not be fufpedted to controvert or deny, and jl wliich by means of a sophism dedroys th t ti intim.it* confidence which o>jht to fubfid ct between two allie-, and particularly between c the French Republic and the Untited States. ha If it is difficult todifcoverin thiscondudl I ' that which ought to be looked for from a P' ' frirnS, what (liall we th : nk of the treaty it felf and of its provisions ? That treaty is at ru this day knowntoal Europe ; and the small ma|orities which gave it fanflion in both p< house, as well as t*<e drong and numerous ed expressions of the opinion of the People [5 1 againd it, are so many honorable teftimoui- ' u ais in support i f the view which the I rench j. j govei nmeiH has taken of it.

This decision was th t made by the Federal Court of Justice, and ; grounded on the treaty concluded between " 1 the United States and Great-Britain. 1 . ilcwf P 5 P ers known t• be under the u'l s indirea controul of the cabinet have, since hi ; that treaty, been doubly aftive in their in- ''l . veaive and calumnies againd the Republic, V j and againfl her principles her reprefenta t tives, and ag;nts ; libellous publications he , openly paid for by the Minider of Great- Britail, haVe brought to view, under every 311 r Mlipe, thofc infttlts and those calumnies ; 00 . and such a fcandalotis (late of things never ( excited the attention of the government, , who might have repress d it. On the con . trary it was countenanced by the public . aas of the government itfelf. The Exeeu : tive Direaory has seen itfelf denounced in W ■ a speech delivered by the President in the . course of the month of May (O. S.) as en : deavouring to spread anarchy and divisions ] fti the United States._ The new allies which : the Republic has acquired, and who are the Pi . fame who concurred in asserting the inde : pendcnce of the Americans, have also been insulted in official ccrrefpondences which M have been made public, and in the newfpa , pers. Indeed it is impoilible not to dif • cover in the tenor of the fpeechcs, and in that of the publications which have been al luded to, a latent enmity, which only awaits " a favorable moment to break out. Faas being thus placed in their true light, it is disagreeable to be compelled to think that the inflruaio»s on which the commis sioners have aCjed, have not bee . drawn up with the sincere intention to proiuce a pa cific result ; since far from grounding their foi memorial on some acknowledged principles, ev .or unconteded faas, they have inverted and f ■ coiifoundeel one and the other; so as to be w ! enabled to impute to the Republic all the misfortunes of a rupture, which it appears j to be intend d to produce by such a lin ■ of rondua. It is evident, th,;t the int-ntion unequivocally exprcfled bf maintaining, at every haznrd, the treaty of London, which is the principal grievance of the Republic ; of adh ring to the spirit which has produced that tr aty and directed i s execution, and of refufing to allow to the Repub ic any of / the modcs'of reparation whicfi (lie has pro- lo; (jofed ihrough tie und rligned, have diaa- ha' ted those i ttrudtior.s., It is equally evident, fie that there is no hifitation in facrificing to foreign feelings, those which the trea ties of 1778, and the rrcblleaion of the cir- re ' cumdances in ihe midst of which they were concluded, ought to inspire. jj e The rem te cynfequences of such a condufl ex have not efeaped the atte: lion of the diredlory. Ps It is wifteei, while nothing is omitted which can prolong the mifunderfbnding, artd even encreal'e ' La it, to throw on the republic, in the view of A mtrica and Europe, all the odium of such a —- rupture | it is endeavored, to juftify by delusive ap- J pearanceF, the prejudices which are difleminat- m( ed at pleafnre .igainfl the repuolic, and the fyf- th< rem of eiafperitiorl and alienationwhich is pur- rr! sued, in rrfpeil to her, with.the moil unaccoun- la I table perseverance : It is intended, finally, to da lei>:e the si 111 favorable opportunity of confum- he mating an Ultimate union with a power, towards tei which a devotion and partiality are ihewu,which f J lias lortg been tUMiI of the conduit of t?:e n t Federal government. _ j ' lc intentions which the undersigned attri butes so tTie government of the* United States are so li'tle d that nothing feerns to have i 3 been neglected at Philadelphia, to rend-'r them | e ; evident to every eye.

It was in difpenfible, that he should, i?i the name of the , executive direi\ory,. riifprl the mill of illusions with which the complaints of the ministers of the French republic have for five years part been Inrrounded witlra view to weaken, mifrtprefent : or difguifc them. He was abfohitelv bound, by declaring their sentiments in an unequivocal man- j , per, to clear up evety doubt and everv farfe in terpretation to which they might have been Tub- , jetted. It is thereforeforc, solely with a view to smooth ; the ivay to difittj/ion, that the undersigned has enter ed upon the preceding explanations : It is with the ; f;ime view that he. declares to the connniflionars , and envoys extraordinary, that notwithstanding the kind of prejudice which may have been enter- ] fair.ec'.with refpe«ft to them, the executive dirv&o- ' ry are disposed to treat with that one of the three opinions prefumcd to le more impartial, promifeiu the course of explanations a 1 greater (hare of that mutual Confidence which is f indifpenfibly required. The undersigned flatters < himfelf, that this overture will meet with noferi- ous opposition on the part of the commiflioners and j -envoys extraordinary ;it fs the more natural to % expeA it, as by ths tenor of their powers the said j comrnifTioners and envoys extraordinary are au- a tuorifed to negotiate jointly or separately ; so that j nothing but the desire of precluding all acconSmo- c dation could raise any objection against that mea- sure, which moreover is merely pointed oat to the r commiflioners themselves, rn order that nothing , may on this occasion have an unfavorable appear ance, and which evidently has no other obje&than r to fccure a h3ppy ifTue to the negotiation by rem- r oving at the firli outset every thing that might, in the course of that negotiation, awaken feelings J that might eventually commit it. The undersigned hopes .the cemmiffioners and envoys extraordinary, will ioon ; enable him to in- form the executive dire<flory of their determina- tion. Whatever this deterrwination may be, the undersigned flatters himfelf, that the explanation he has given will have placed the fubjeA in its true light, and may eventually serve to remove, in the eyes of all impartial men, the unfavorable impref • Hon, which might be endeavored to be made res- c peiling the intentions of the French republic and c her government. n He concludes by renewing to the commiflioners and envoys extraordinary, the affnrance of his confederation.

The vaporing document contains nothing brit what has been better said by Adet and oth ers times without number ; but it is well to remind the people on all occa!io 9 ( f the lleady adherence of the French to fyflem of dividing the people from the gov ernment—arid it is ufcful to pay attention to this faft, as it fu.rnifhes the mod indubi table ar.d flagrant pr. of of the traiterous correspondence maintained by their fpiee here.
