WITH respectful gratitude I receive
the congratulations, which as magillrates of
my native city, and in behalf of my fellow
citizens, you pre pleaibd to tender me. Per
mit me to recipwicate with lincerity and wit i
warmth the lively e.xprfllions of interefl,
which you have littered in my favor. To
return to my countrymen, unfuccefsful in
the million of peace and reconciliation on
which I was delegated, is 110 doubt painful
in a high degree to my feelings, but to re
ceive on my return, the teltinionies of their
approbation whilst abroad, goes far indeed to
alleviate those feelings, and to coinpenfate
for the indignities and insults so liberally be
stowed upon me by the government to which
I was deputed.
With refpeft to that power, you must have
observed with pride, that the energetic mea
sures of the United States have already pro
duced the effedt, to change their mode of
procedure ; but permit me, gentlemen, to
fay, that f)'om the intimate knowledge of
that nation, which I have had an opportuni
ty to polTefn, I am thoroughly persuaded
that no-ahesation has taken place in their
system.
saw tf
It is with pleasure I observe, that you are
aware of their inimical views towards us,
when you tell me that our citizens are pre
pared to meet at the point of the sword any
attacks that may be.made on their sovereign
ty and independence. The experience of se
veral years has lhewn us, and the occurences
of every day mult convince us, that in no
other manner can be met the daring encroach
ments of a people, who, abusing the hono
rable title of republicans, are bending their
whole to iubvert, in every quarter
ol the globe, the holy blelTings of civil li
berty, and the precious rights of felf-gov
erninent : a people whom no candid appeal
to juflice, no claim of ancient friendlhip,
ind no humiliation can for one moment di
vert from their long planned system of gen
eral oppreffian.
Force alone is left to those whom (he has
injured ; and happy the nation, whom the
tnfidious arts of her deftru&ive policy have
not already deprived of this solitary resource.
America is still among the number.
Before i take my leave, fuffer me to offer
von my aflurarcts of the plcafing emotions
which are excited in my breast, by the flat
tering manfler in which you mention my re
cent appointment to a grade in the iirmy of
our rrpuWk. I may be allowfcd to indulge
tha hope that I fliall, in thedifcharge of my
military duties, ftiil continue to merit the
approbation of the citizens whom you re
present. Charles CoUsvicrtb Pinckney.

( ITis exceedingly flittering to me, to re
ceive the address of tliofe who are to be uni
ted with me it the defence of our common
country. It is particularly grateful totr.e to
find, that among them ate many who have
in part timesbeen my companions in the field,
and to whose valour and patriotism I have
been personal witness. With heartfelt plea#
sure I fee the martial ardor which pervades
all classes of my fellow citizens, and their
firm determination to support our rights
and independence An habitual dislike to
prepare for hostile resistance, and an apathy
with refpeft to national honor, too certain
ly provoke ag -reflion in all ambitions and
powerful state*; whih; on the other hand a
preparation for war, a sincere union among
all the citizens of the state, whether they
are called by the voice of their country to
command, or to obey, with a strong mani
feftation to support our national rights, will
as certainly produce the effeft of checking
the criminal euterprifes of the most rapac
10.J8 and aspiring foe. Vou are ple.fed to
observe, that your sensibility was often a.
wakened by the unworthy and insidious
treatment which I received, and which
through me, was offered to our country
by those who we so lately esteemed ou,
friends. Permit me, nn this occasion, t*
lay, that if my own feelings were often ex.
cited by the infultir.g condua of France
t fl r? e u wa L s . do " b, y augmented, wher
I reflected that thw treatment was dire&ec
towards a people, *-hom I had so lately lef
overflowing with the warmest effufi./ns o
virtusus fnendlhip.
But our minds are now awakened to the
views of that nation. Let m h'aften, then,
my fellow foldim, as our overtures for
peace have been spurred with contempt, to
prepare with a&ive energy for war. The
defpoM of France will, l am f ure> attempt tQ
disunite us, for thty are infidioHs and cun
ning ; but I conjure you to exert the ut
most v,g, W, to dettd and guard aeainft
their wiles, and to fruttrate their Machiave-
Uan policy. They will, by fallacious pro
positions, endeavour to refex our aftivitv •
be careful how you trull them, and be in
readiness to repel their hostilities j for thev
are vind,dive, fierce, and unrejenting, and
their ammoiity agamft us is ro«fed by the
very injuries which we have sustained at their
hands.. Let a strenuous application confirm
your difciphne ; let the tnthufiafm of public
virtue animate yonr exertions ; let a confi.
der.ee ,n the justice of y.ur cause elevate
you, hopes, and the efforts ofyour valor will
lr.fure your vi&ory.

AMONG the nwnsrous marks of fricnd

since my return to my native country, none
are more grateful to my heart, than the
congratulations of my old companions and

Il was with the highest pleasure I perused
in your late address to the President of the

wife, temperate and conciliatory couduft
adopted and purfned by him in the negocia

you are not diflatisfied with the manner in
which his inftru&ions were followed. Ame

sincerity, to avoid the calamities of war, and
has with patient perseverance in vain fut d
to obtain reconciliation, peace, or even a
cessation of hoftilitirs, from the supposed ju

what insulting arrogance and avaricious ra

1 HE pen ot Shakelpeare is descriptive of
events of the present times. There is no
J' news in the world, but that there
is io great a fever on goodness that the dis
solution of it must cure it. Novelty is only
in request ; and it is as dangerous to be aged
in any kind of course, as it is virtuous to
be constant in any undertaking. There is
scarce truth enough alive to make societies
secure, but security enough to make fellow
fliip accurst. Much upon this riddle runs
the wisdom of the worlds The news is old
enough, yet it is every day's news." The
French Republic leems to grow still more
convinced that tlx citizens of the United
States are not lufEtiently divided among
themselves, to be conquered, like the finall,
effeminate States of Europe, by arras, threats
or diplomatic skill. A new art of decep

The Diredlory has pasTed a decree that all

though forced mto service, fliall be treated
as pirates, whenever they fall into their pow

neral Desfourneaux, as agent of Guadaloupe
Mits dependtwifs, to give assurances to
the President of the United States, that the
Americans may exchange their produce for
the productions of that liland ; may dispose
of their property freely ; the laws will pro
tect them, and will punish with rigor who
But an Amencan captain, just returned
trom Guadaloupe, declares that these offers
»re fallacious ; no veffd is released, except

this address to our government ; that °all

You may remember government (ftndi.
tionsd with the ft ate prisoners that, they
fhosld emigrate to fucb coufttry (ndfiiulte
Hntifh dominion*) as mig-fct be'agreed upon
between them and the government. After
repeated applications to take the bentft of
the agreement, about two months since, they
were officially informed that any person wilh
ing to go to America might\lepart as soon
as convenient; but those who had Europe in
view, would not then be permitted; fomfi
dav» after another official notice arrived,
countermanding the other t stating that the
American consul had remo \ftrated with the
Britifti court against tlieir going to America,
of course that they rtiould remain in prison.
1 his day one of the CafHe feeretaries called
upon the several prisoners, and informed them
that they might now go to any part of the
European continent not at war with us, ex
cept the under-named pcrfons, who were in
formed thatcireumfiances had occurredwhich
prevented the lord lieutenant from fuffering
