Extract of a letter from Mr. Jefferson, Se

the Republic of France, dated August 16,

" Conscious, on our part, of the fame
friendly and sincere dispositions, we can with
truth affirm, both for our nation and govern-
that we have never omitted a reason
able occasion of manifesting them. For I
will not consider as of that character oppor
tunities of tallying forth from our ports to
way-l;<y, rob, and murder defencelefs mer
chants and others, who have Cone iJs no in
jury, and who were coming to trade With us ;
in the confidence of our peace and amity.
The violation of aM the laws of order and
morality which bind mankind together, would I
be an unacceptable offering to a just nation. (
Recurring then only to recent thin: s, after
so affit&ing a libel, we recoiled with fati«-
faftion that in the course of two years, by i
unceasing exertions, we paid up seven years
arrearages and instalments of our debt to
France, which the inefficacybf our fir {I form
of government had fuffered to be accumula
ting ; that prefling on Hill to the entire fulfil
ment of our engagements, we have facilitated
to Mr. Genet the effe£t of the instalments of
the present yeaij to enable him to fend relief
to his fellow-citizens in France, threatened
with famine ; that in tht; firft moment of the
itifurre&ion which threatened the colony of
St. Domingo, We flepped forward to their
relief with arms and taking freely on
©urftlves the rifle of an unauthorized aid,
■when delay would have been denial; that we
have received, according to oui bell abilities,
the wretched fugitives from the catastrophe
of the principal town of that colony, who,
efeaping from the fwordsand flames of civil
war, threw themlelves on us naked and;
houseless, without food or friends, money!
or other means their faculties loft and ab
sorbed in the depth of their di ft re fits ; that
the exclusive adiiiission to sell here the prizes
made by France on her enemies, in the pre
lent war, though unstipulated in our treaties,
aud unfounded in her own practice, or in
that of other nations, as we believe ; the
manifefted by the late grand jury'in j
their proceedings against those who had aide'd
the enemies of France with arms and imple
ments oi war ; the expreflioii of attachment
to his nation, with which Mr. Genet was
welcomed, on his arrival and journey from
south to north, and our long forbearance
under his grot's usurpations asd outrages of
the laws and authority of our country, do
not bespeak the partialities intimated in his
letters. And for these things he rewards us
by endeavours to excite discord and distrust
between our citizens and those whom they
have entrusted with their government ; be-,
tween the different branches of our govern
ment ; between our nation and his. But >
none of these things, we hope, will be found t
in his power. That friendfhip which dic
tates to us to bear with his conduct yet awhile, -
kft the interest of his nation here should fuf
fer injury, will hasten them to replace an
agent whose dispositions are such a mifrepre- s
fcntation of theirs, and whose continuance
here is inconsistent with peace, re- t
sped, and that friendly correspondence'which '<■
vie hope will ever subsist between the two t
nations. His.government will fee too that
the Cafe is prefling. That it is impossible
for two sovereign and independent authori
ties to be going on within our. territory, at the
same time, without collision. They will
forefee that if Mr. Genet perseveres in his
proceedings, the conferences would be so '
hazardous to us, the example so humiliating c
and pernicious, that we may be forcetf'even 1
to suspend his functions before a fuccefTor c
can arrive to continue them. If our citi- 1
jzens have not already been (hedding each a
others blood, it is not owing to the inodera- f
tion of Mr. Genet, but to the forbearance
ef the government. It is well known that a
if the authority of thA laws bad been resorted t
to, to stop the' Little Democrat, its officers h
and agents were to have been refilled by the <>
crew of the vessel, confiding partly of Ameri- f
fin citizens. Such events are too serious, £
too poftible, to 1»» left to hazard, or to what b
ir worse than hazard, the will of an agent t
% liofe dcligns are so mysterious. Lay the
cafe then immediately before his government; n
accompany it with aflurances, which cannot 0
)e stronger than true, that our friendfliijo for n
he nation is constant and unabating ; that t
ititbful to our treaties-, we havefulfilled them si
1 every point, to the best of our understand- t<
"g ; that if in any thing, however,we have ni
>nstrued tbcm amiss } we are ready toenter ai
: _>>"o.cand:j cxpkitvtieiis, and to do whatever '
we can be convinced <is rightthat in oppo
img the extravagancies of an-agent, whose
- character they teem not fufficiently to have
known, we nave been urged by motives of
duty to ourjl-lves, and justice to others, which
cannot but be approved by thole who are
just tbemfelves; and,.finally, that, after 'in
dependence and sef-gQvcrnment, there is no
thing we more sincerely wilh than perpetual
, friendfhip with them."'

LETTER,

citizen of Virginia.

ed to Mazzei, author of researches, histori

Our political htuation is prodigiously
changed tince you left us. Inltead of that
noble love ot liberty, and that republican
government, which carried us through the
dangers of the war, an' Anglo Monarchio,
Ai iftocratic party has risen. Their avowed
e °hjeft is to impose on us the substance, as
j they: have already given us the form of the
s Britith government. Nevertheless, the prin
cipal body of our citizens remain faithful to
republican principles, AH our proprietors of
hmds are friendly to those principles, as alio
the men of talents. We have against us,
(republicans) the Executive Power, the Ju
diciary Power, (two of the three branches of
bur government) all the officers of govern
r ment , all wbe are seeking offices, all timid
ij men who prefer the calm of despotism to the
| tempestuous sea of liberty, the British
merchants and the Americans who trade on
e British capitals, the speculators, persons in
b terested in the bank aud publicfunds. {Efta
bli-fliments invented with views of corruption,
and to aflimilate us to the British model in
j its corrupt parts.] •

which we have obtained by so much labor

nouncing that you had, with the advice and
content ot the Senate, appointed me " Lieu»
tenant General and Commander in Chief of
all the Armies raited or to be railed for the 1
service of the United States,"
I cannot express how greatly affected I am"
at this new proof of public confidence, and i
the highly flattering manner in which you 1
have been pleased to make the communicati- ]
on ; at the fame time I must not conceal 1
| from you my earned with that the choice had 1
| fallen upon a man let's declined in years, and <
better qualified to encounter the usual vicilfi- (

You know, fir, what calculation I had ■
made rel? five to the probable course of events, 1
011 my retiring from office, and thedetermi- !
nation I had'confoled myfelf with of closing c
the remnant of my days in my present peace- i
ful abode ; you will therefore be at no loss (
to conceive and appreciate :h sensations I 1
must have experienced, to bring my mind to c
any conclusion that would pledge me, at so c
late a -p;r.oi oT life, to leave Icencs I fin

£ no one can more cordially approve of the

t confidence, and will, no doubt, combined
1 with the state of things, call from Congress
„ such laws and meSis as will enable you to
meet the full force and extent of the crilis.

•. f —... '
HOW TO SEKK REfOSF-
You must commence by exerting all yourin
tereft and abilities to become a principal con
fpiritor for the deftruftion of order, law and
religion ; which you must take care to begin
in your own country (Ireland for inltance).
muft correspond and be in.ftriet con
neition with the agents and spies of your
country's declared enemies. You must lose
■ no opportunities to foment discontents, to
misrepresent every aftioh of government,
ahd to excite in the people, by lies and every
artifice that cunning wickednel's can invent,
an hatred to their governors. You must
ftudioutly afid deliberately contrive to or
ganize regular systems of disorganization ;
you must raise a fund for purchasing arms
and ammunition to put into the hands of
all the swim difaffefted ; and you must in
.ftruift them how to act in a case of urgency,
or open rebellion. If, in the profecutioil of
these quiet measures, your repose should be
disturbed, and if, by running from the jus
! tice of your own country, you Ihould be de
clared an outlaw for high treason, you can
conceal yourfelf till there is an opportunity
to embark for America, and on the passage
you can a mule yourfelf by collecting toge
ther all the most vulgar and illiterate of your
brother pafTengers to make judges, jurors,
counsellors, witnefTes, &c. forming a mock
court of justice to try your injured sovereign ;,
after sentence is pronounced, you can exe
cute him in eftigy, and delight your imagina
tion by a fictitious representation of what
you would most joyfully fee realized. On
your arrival here, begin to play off the fame
game as soon as poflible ; lose no time in
forming another society of 9/tited- Irishmen ; 1
admit among you not only all those whom '
disaffection has induced or guilt compelled '
to quit their own country, but also as
many citizens of the United States as.are. .1
favourers of French Jacc.binifm, and whose 1
mifapprehen lion of things you can so aw- '
ment as to make them believe govern- <
ors are tyrannical, their constitution natu- j
rally tending to defpotifin, and thernfelves I
deprived of all the Rights of Man. Be :
closely connected with all the editors of the '
most seditious papers, and set no bounds to J
your calumnies of every branch of the Ex- '
ecutive, and particularly of the Secretary of i
State, whom you mtift accuse of bribery and i
corruption ; should you, thereby, expel an j
unfortunate man with ignominy from liis of- i
sice and his bread, fliould your repose be a j
little disturbed by a prosecution on this ac.- :
count, nevermind'it, 'tis all for thegloricus «
cause of liberty ar,i! equality. (
- j IF you Mi. uUI happen to Lil f, y ni Cfnu L-f
---i ton to Philudclph i;i and broach yourpoli
:i ( tics in io unguarded a manner as to orovoke
j cne oi the pafl'engers to take you up and

. | the sake of repose) 011 being' re-admitt d
- 1 on board promise not to open your lips in
1 I the presence of that perfou any more during
s the reft of the voyage.
1 I When you walk or ride out for the benefit
i of air and exercift divert yourfelf by letting
- your dog to worry the farmer's ducks,
- I fowls, geese, Sec. If you are not seen
r you can tuck one or two under your coat :
- if you are discovered and should get horse
; whipped, knocked in a puddle, kicked and
- cuffed and have your mouth filled with mud,
you can avenge yourfelf but scattering dirt
- and every species of filthy abuie on every
one who disturbs your repose. Should all
your plots and conspiracies be discovered,
e should your very constitution be brought to
- light, and all your schemes for organizing
il (editions societies here be published, with
d your name, taken from your own hand wri
s ting as ringleader of rebellion, throw off the
0 mask at once, glory in tie illustrious epithet
of an United Irishman, huff, bounce, bul

- vioient propenlity to fighting : write furious
3 letters to those who offend you, and threat
■f en to challenge them if tliev won't be quiet,
t then Iwearyou have challenged them ; take
a a great Virginia gbuger with you and flick
- up a paper of lies in the coffie-houfe : and
alter you have sneaked awav, Ihould any
v °ne tear it down, y.-u can enquire his name,
y but take 110 notice of it, go heme and try to
s enjoy your repose. Should the whole tenor
- of your couduft, be in direst contradiction
'to the will, and deftriiCtive of-the happiness
. of a worthy and. indulgent parent, fliould it
c have (the dire a and inevitable, tendency to
c bring down "hisgrey hairs with sorrow to

The gentleman having met according to
agreement, took their places at the distance
of ten yards from each other. Each gen- <
tleman received one pistol from his friend. 1
Previously to the fire, Major Cufhing ad- :
dressed himfelf to hit friend, and said, that I
he had interfered -with the claim of Cap ■ ,
tain Lents ; and that he had no enmity to him. ;
The gentlemen then received the word, a- <
. greeably to the arrangement, and fired near- >
ly at the fame time. Major Cufhing's fire (
was without effed. Major Lewis's struck, !
and lodged in major Culhing's watch. Ma
jor Culhing, on being struck, moved a few
steps, but immediately recovered his ground, -
and with great coolncfs and propriety said,
" Gentlemen, I hope I have not left my
ground." On finding Major Culning was
wounded, his friend mentioned it, and asked
if the affair (hould now end. Major Cufh
ing then said alrud, •• that he had not in
jured or attempted to injure, Captain Lew I
is. Attervv ich a (hcrt conversation took
place bi tween Major Lewis and hit friesd,
and the result was, that if the iurgeons, nn a
