A Correspondent, thinks it rather c hard, that the Federal Government ( liiotild be slandered, on the one hand, for preserving a lli ict neutrality ; and cenfufed, 011 the other, for having vio- lated it, in permitting the French Che- c fapeake fleet to put to sea, during the / continuance of the-embargo. As to llic latter charge, the United ltates has an a excuse, as A t ' nl ' ra ' Vanltable was de- () termi-.ied to put to lea at all evepts ; and had an attempt been made to oppose him, he was determined to appeal to j f tile ultima ratio —and he could have urged it home with force. 0 " Weil ward the Star ps Empire t i takes its way," as laid the Archbishop f, of Cloyne, and the Star of Science has ), rolled in company with the Imperial ( Orb.
