This family [Xivingflon] affecfl to
Lave flreng attachments to tiie French re
public; why? because they seek populari
tv by coinciding with the affeftioqate con
c'l-rrn of America, for the welfare of this
gallant and invincible nation. But by their
f; uits you lhall know them. On the recal
of Governeur Morris., application was
made to Chancellor Livingfton to go as
our minister to France ; the office was'ho
norablt, the nation the f;rft in rank, and
the million capable of affilting the cause of
hherty andol promoting the mutual inte
reit of the two countries. The chancel
lor refufed the office, and Mr. Monroe
was appointed.

The park of this town, which is a
rnoft agreeable and salubrious promenade,
has been for some time abandoned, on
account of the fetid exhalation! arising
from various masses of filth and'dirt, and
which render access to it quite imprac
ticable.
The feverc discipline cftablifhcd by
the military, in obedience to the Order
of the commander In chief, and the wife
regulations ifftied for the repairing and
prefer»ing of this fp.icious walk, has re-'
llored it to its former brilliancy, and is
now as much fiequented as ever. Three
days ago, in particular, an immense
croud of people were attiadied by the
appearrnce ofa balloon.
There is in the army of the Sambre
and Meufe, a military aerostatic cortipa
ny, entrusted with the management of
this roarl.ine.
The principal persons direst its fil
ling and ascension. The talioon is
composed of yellow taffeta gummed,
and covered with a net work of ftiong
thread, to which are attached cords tu
lix it -to the earth, hen about to be fil
led, and to sustain the gondola, in
which the aerial voyagers fit, with all
the instruments necessary to determine
the height of the balloon in the atmof
pliere, and to discover the different tem
peratures they may experience, and
which is effe&ed by the aid of a barome
ter and thermometer, and mathematical
calculations.
The form of the aerostatic machinc is
not fphciical as those of Mongolfier,
Blanchard, Piliitre, and Rozier. Its
figure is oval oreliptic, 29 feet in length
and 19 in diameter, and consequently
57 in circumference.
The directors of this balloon employ
also a new process to fill it. If they
followed the plan adopted by Mongol
fier, at Paris on the 27th of Anguft

convulsion, nothing could be more sea

The French have taken Engliflimen,
coming to fettle in this country, out of
American vefiels, and carried them off
prisoners : Waving the repugnancy of
this with the treaty, is it wife and poli

the Englifhnjen at home. One would
expe£t that France wouM chufe to fee
her enemy drained of her wealth and
people.
Those rash men who think of run

Ihouid look at that which rages in Eu

exaftcd from the conqueicd Nether
