but though seas over, was not drowned ! A

Through various channels, of first credi
bility, we learn that Mr. Lyon, after leaving
the jail of this city, had the confumnsate ef
front«ry to hoist, in his sleigh, the French
flag, as he rod* through the several towns
where hi* cleAors chiefly reside. Thia is
explanatory of his political fcntimeiits, and
shews how well his views accord with the
Virginian patriots 1

"What happier natures fonhk it with iffrigfat,
The hardy Lyon will contend is right."
When he arrmd an Bennington, the
fchoolmaller di(miffed his scholars, one of
whom, as may julUy be presumed, from the
puerility of the comppfitisn, addreflVd the
" man on hit way to Congrtf:." and the muse
of chaotic harmony warbled her flanierand
her hero's fame !
SUFFIELD, march 5.
THE affairs in Europe have not alteret
their lite complexion. 'I he speech of the
king of England 10 his parliament is full of
dignity and luperiority. That kingdom,
which the fuperfkial have pronounced 49 fall
tottering tp ir» fall, still is firm, unlhaken at
mount Atlas Every part of the nation ap
pears to enjoy an unrivalled, unprecedented
state of fucccfs, wealth, and prosperity.
France bite? her own chains and prays on
her own vitals. Both .the Directory and
Council of 500 are filled up with (raiiors to
each othe>. Their frequent deuunciatioas
declareto the world how little the y feel of
fraternal love or republican liberty. It fof
tens not the sorrows of the deluded captive
to hear his chains cnl'ed the dear bands of
I fraternity and the of men.
j The Belgians hav« dared to complain of the
yoke, whieh galls them beyond tolerance.
They (haggle, as the roused lion in tbenet,
to deliver themselves from French equality
and unheard of usurpation. The voice of
thcpolitical seer will dare to pronounce, that
the virtuous druggies of the opprtfTed will
ere long, crown their exertions with success.
The conquered provinces will not al
ways be tame as Wie jackdaw, and l|ke the
uniufpc&ing lamb," lick the hand that is
raised to shed their blood." Brune, the Gen
eral in Italy, has displaced three of the
Italian Dire&ory and several of the Roman
representatives ! O I what raregovernmentl
precious liberty ! The-mouth of their cannon
is the oracle of reason, and the point of the
bayonet the argument of fanfculqttes !
How well this agrees with the fiie speeches
of Frenchmen:, with promises of delivering
the oppressed, and making the world hap.

Dr. Moore has been vtry fortunate in
the fele&on of a motto for his " Vj'ew of

and from no very perfpicious author. Ta
