Wil liam Concluded this peace, without the concur rence of the $mpctoV and Empire, and It ft them to cottiend alone With Fiance." Thus did this nation (who at that timr were spoken of by the English as tagged, lialf-(brved Frenchmen, fed on f*og-fouj ) defy and triumph over a combination of •eneihies neatly equal to theprefent, ami upon rhe fame ground. From this piece of history, the friends of France, of humanity and equality, may learn two i — portam points. Firit, That one hun dred year# ago, the rn»feries and fuife rings of the .French nation, from a cruel government and policy, *'as not a meie vulgar notion, hut a leal grievance, that employed the Councils and arms of nearly all fcuroi e to rediefs- it. And secondly, That this fafee French people, under this cruel government, badly clothed and fed, by dim of nunilieu, bvavejey. activity and in genuity, were it match tor England, the Empe ror, and the P'inees of Germany, the Dutch) ifely and Spain.— Good Heavens, ! of what cbntradi&ion? are men capable :— In iSgi, the Princes «' Europe olecge th~rnfrlvcs to their God and to each other, that they will reform the aby'fci.of the French government,and mend ihecono»»iop of-he,people,, buijire.not able co do it. The French g'roju uuder tnefe iucrea ling r.hufcs 61.e Sundrt d years longer, and then rift together 2nd break their chains. And lo ! these firne Princes combine, with the tm.fl He red ian ferocity,, to exterminate the people »>l France, for doing of themselves, and For thera fefves, what tfre Pr-nces wished and attempted in vain to'do for them. K nj/s and hereditary Princes. from Pharaoh and Re ho boa m, down to the F«edericks and Geotgcs of our time, have beenjutl as benefici al to Ihe human race, as fchool-bovs have been to the rate of sparrows.—They have killed more men by Rindnefs, in acfrhiniflfering the benefits of good government, than have b<en denroyed by famrtre, pcftilende, earthquakes, and every ether fcourgc t• which men are liable.—Our late I Moit Gracious Soveieign, in the nchnefs of lna cleim (icy, and the fulr.efs of h<s Royal irnrCy, | put toolat 130, 0c0 of his veiy good fubjt£i* ot America to death, to convince them ho* «o live corrtfortabty, and after all tailed of convittton. The p'efent combination'of Princes in Europ*, actuated by the noble and godiike moiivea ol bettering the condition of mankind, ara about to teach the m«»ft poltfh d and enlightened® na tion tn the world,that they are wholly unab'e 10 manage their own affairs; and that they mull receive a good plan ot government from th m, nr.. All the riatrvrs and inhabitants of Fiance, 10 be divided into three-grand divisions ; the si ft, an hereditjiy nobilnv ; the second, soldiers ; and the third, comiß«»nets, or tier* etat ; in plain language, hewers ol wood, and draw-, rs ot water; so .that ev ry common man in Trance fhsll bave two inalli-rs, the one callcd a civil of ficer 01 inalfrs •*ho holds a papct, >t»d marks down how much he must- pay i»-gov*rrt ment a yor ; the fccond, Called a military offi cer, that is, an Qncivil master, who carries a bayonet, and pricks him or.>in tafe he don't pay in feafun.
