negociation tailed, to throw the blame of a
rupture on the United States—if all these
points were proved, it would not {hew Mr.
y*.> coiicluffbns to be unjust. But Mr.
N. believed, from the acknowledgment of
Mr. Pickering himfelf, that tliere is a difpo
•ition in the French government to treat,
and that there is a change of circwmftances
between the two countries ; for he acknowl
edges that the idea of loans, and' reparation
On account of speeches, are formally given
up ; and also the demand for fausfa&ion on
account of the British treaty. After these
have been relinquithed, said Mr. N. what
are the points of dispute which remain ? He
always conceived these to be two of the prin
cipal complaints against us.
"1 kere is one effedl which this report of
the Secretary of State, like the present bill,
is calculated to produce ; it may tend to
change our situation with refpeft to France,
by infilling that all the informal atts which
they have difavoweed, and mull get rid of,
before any treaty can take place, were never
theless afts .couritenanced by the executive
dine£Wy. This is one way of doing away
the disposition, which, said Mr. N. in my
opinion, exilts in France for peace, and the
palling of a law like the present, will be ano
ther ; and, if persisted in, he is fearful a fuc
cefsfnl one.
But we are told, said Mr. N. that we
ought not to excite the animosities of the
people of St. Domingo: Is our present situ
ation, alked he, calculated to produce this
effeft ? G-rtainly pot ; since tney are neces
sarily involved with the mother country.
Afid to take the part propoled, he had alrea
dy ihewn might be attended with the mod
dueful conlequences. Mr. N. thought this
country ought not to wish for the independ
ence of St. Domingo in another pointaf view.
However we may with to fee the naval pow
er of France put down, so that they may
not have it in their powr-r, if they have the
wish, to invade this country, it is highly
important to us that the naval power of
Europe should be divided. He did not think
it could be for the interest; of this country
that Great Britain should have a navy whi<sh
should keep the world in awe, and should
fubjeft them to her views ; and if we assist in
destroying the colonies of France, we fliall
be the means of throwing them, and theij
nayal power into the hands of Great Bri
tain. He did not know that it mattered
much to us whether St. Domingo was a co
lony of France or England, only as it would
add to the naval ftreligth of England. H<-
hoped therefore the motion for striking out
would prevail.
Wednesday, February 20.
Mr.JLion,from Vermont, took'his feat in
the house this day.
Mr. Livingfton said, hi had received un
der cover a number of petitions from the
state of Vermont, praying for a repeal of the
alien and sedition laws, which he begged
leave to present to the house. One of which
having been read, in which amongfl their
other objections to the laws the petitioners
complain of having been deprived by the se
dition law, of their Rcprefentative in Con
grefs for the greater part of the present fefli
on ; Mr. L. moved to have the whole refer
red to the feleA committee to- whom was re
ferred t(ie other petitions relative to this fub
je£l; but on Mr. Gallatin's ftrggefting that
he underftcod that committee is ready to re
port, and that it Would therefore be better
to fufferthe petitions to lie on the table un
til that report is made, and then have,the
whole referred to the fan e committee of the
whole—that course was taken.
A message was received from the President
of the United States, informing the house,
that he had approved and figndd an aft to
authorize the reiniburfement of money ex
perided for the relief of sick and disabled sea
men in foreign countries ; an aft to defray
the expense of holding a treaty or treaties
with the Indians ; an aft for the relief of
Gazzam, Taylor, and Jones, and Samuel
Watts ; and an aft for tjie relief of Jonathan
Halkill. The President also informed the
Senate, that he had approved and signed an
aft to amend the aft for giving'eflfeft to the
laws of the United States in the State of
Tennefiee.
The hpufe took up the report of the com
mittee of the whole on the bill forencourag- 1
ing the capture of French privateers, by al
lowing a bounty on guns, and the motion
being to concur in the agreement of the com - ,
mittee to strike out the firft feftion of the •

f The second ft ft ion was then amended, by
[, adding to it the usual enafting cfctnie ; but,
0 after some obiervations against pafling It, by
•, Mr. Sewall, since the firft: fcftion had been
[1 struck out, on the motion for its going to a
third reading, it was negatived.
Mr. Bayard proposed the following refo
e lution to the hcufe :
f " Resolved, That Matthew Lyon, a mem
f ber of this house, having been convicted of
e being a notorious and seditious perlbn, and
- ot a depraved mind, and wicked aad diaboli
cal difpofition, and of wickedly, deceitfully
and malicioully contriving to defame th'ego
; vernment of the United States, a»d of hav
; ing with intent and design t6 defame the
- government of the and John
5 Adams, the President of the United States,
- and to bring the laid goverKment and Prefi
. nent into contempt and pnd with
- intent and dtfign to excite ngainft the said
* government and President tile'hatred of the
s good people of the United States, and to
- stir. up sedition in the United States, wick
. edlv, knowingly and malicioully written and
- pnblifhed certain scandalous and seditious
writings or libels, be therefor expelled thi-s
house."
M'r. B. said, he had only to remark, that
f this resolution is copied from the record of
the trial, which he had in his pofleJiion.
' Mr. Nicholas said, if this had been a can
-1 lid ftarement of the bll finds, he (hould have
1 bteh willing to come to an immediate
1 vote upon it; but words are introduced intp
I this resolution which are words of courle
in every indiftment, which do not particu
i i; lv belong to this offence and the truth
I 1 which is never enquired into upon a trial.
As he wiftied the nature of the offence to be
1 clearly-fta ted, he hoped the motion would lie
for the present.
Mr. Bayard observed, he had already said,
the terms used are copied from the record
itfelf, and he did not think the gentleman
r>om Virginia had been wiser than the law.
He had himfelf ®o doubt that all the charges
in the record are pertinent to the fubjeft ;
il not, it would be extremely improper to
introduce them. They are charges upon
which a jury of the country have decided.
After a repetition of his objeftions by Mr.
Nicholas, the house adjourned.

LOMDON, Nov. 3.
If a fydem of national education was
more necessary at any period of our hiftary
than another, the prefsnt is certainly that
period.
At an epoch when the revolution of
France las burlt upon the world like an
earthquake, and ltifled the civil and political
facultie- of all Europe with ts noxious va
' pours, every lunatic reformer and chimeri
. cal politician, from the National Convention
, or Legislative Aflembly of France to the
remoted extremity where French politics
: have undulated, has felt himfelf wairanted
y to pour forth in harangues, in pamphlets,
n or newspapers speculation*, his crude and
a abftrafled opinion on political topic?,regard
-1 less of the rnifchief he might thus pro
. i duce.
J The newspapers of all Europe, and more
. I especially of these countries, hare been fiil
f i led with the eccentricities of the French pa
-4 j triats—and thepopultr brain has been mad
. | dened by the detail of argumeuts, projefts,
f i systems, andfalfehoods which seemed rather
. to have originated in one of their lunar tem
_ j pies, called madhouses, than in any nation
; or assembly of rational beings.
, It is prominent, aqd perhaps the only
, point v on which the government of these
_ countries have b?«n mod remiss ard repre
! henfible, to have permitted the publication
1 tff French debates, and poisonous democra
; tical doarines n moment after it becatre
> obvious, trom the popular avidity for such
. publications, that the infeftion was alarm
-1 ing
s But since tjie minds of theadult are irre.
5 claimably poisoned, does, it not behove '.he
dafe to look t,o the riling generation, and
: fee that they do not fuck in *ith the feeds
f of fcholafticindruaien, the vims of political
poifwn. and future rebellion. Does it not
• behove the Legislature to enquire who and
■ what are the tnen privileged or permitted
: to open schools for the inllruftion of youth,
. and what are the books through which a
principal part of that inftruaion is con
■ veyed ?
The publican must pay an heavy license,
and adduce high recommendation and secu
rity for his character before he is permitted
toadminifter—to the drunkenefs of the mul
titude.
The News-printer 19 made refp&nfible by
high penalties to the State, and the ruin
of his business, for incurring the flighted
charge, even by inadvertency,of libel or se
dition, through this paper—and yet every
man, be he whom or what he may, without
license or even reputable recommendation,
may open a fchooi or an academy for the
education of youth ; and seach his pupils
—to read, by Tom Paine's Rights of Man,
—or inculcate religion on their tenderminds,
from the fame author's Age of Reason.
The justice of the remark must be obvi
ous to the flighted refleaion—-it materially
concerns ev.-ry man interested in the fafety
of the State, and the welfare of the riling
generation, and we sincerely hope it may
have the desired effea with those to whose
sacred duty and high authority it properly
belongs to reform the evil.

In the ycfterday's fitting of the Council
of Five Hundred, Delbrel observed, that
at the present moment, when war seemed I
unavoidable, and the Direaory would be J
obliged te fetid the armed force beyond the 1
frontiers, the enemies iu the interior would I
no doubt endeavour to stir up commotion.
One of the mod efficacious m-ans of pre
venting them would be (he responsibility of" v
the different Communes for all the difturban- 1
ces exc ted in their diftri&s ; but as their
refpoßfibility wat not yet enaaed by law,
he moved that a commiflion be appo nted to 11
take this fubjea into consideration, and
make a report on it in the course of the
current decade ; which motion was adopted.
A letter from Toulouse, of the 7th inft.

£ brig, which was taken by a Turkish vessel
The General dates in these d:fpatchea tc
,£ the Direftory, that his army is encamped al
|n Pharaoh Tichefme, on a height which com
mands the City of Cairo. The Arabs whe
infeft the neighbouring country, however
j render it so unfafe, that it is impoflible tc

of an infurre&ion, which the army in its
e present situation would be unahled to with

ed, that if he does not receive speedy fac
