FQREIGN IN i'ELLIGENCE.
(Cot.TtNEED.)
LONDON. June 13.
Ceuit of King's Bench, Jun? JO.
CH \ LLANGE.
Mr Erli lie mcved the court for a rule
to (how cause why a criminal information
(hould not be filed agai<>lt Majdr Arm
ftrbng,' some time (ince of the eleventh re
giment of foot The officer on whose be
half he made this application poflVflcd an
much bravery and taler.t .is any in rtu ser
vice ofhi* Majesty. It tvas no oti er than
Majjr General Coote ; and it Would on
ly be neceflary to read a few lines of the
General's affidavit to obtain the dbjeft of
the present motion ; but he was extremely
desirous the ptfolic should be informed of
ivhat had inducrd this truly valuable per
funage in WV- fe behalf he then addrelfcd
■ the court, to crave the protection of the
court, Gtneral Coote had not on'y ftrved
hi 3 country with the h'gheft degree of re
putation in the American war, but had also
held a difti guifhed command both in the
Welt Indies and on the lontinet, during
the prefeut contett, and was entrutled by
government to conduft the late expedition
ag tinft Oftend Notwithllanding the ad-
Wjity of the weather, and many concur
rent unfortunate circumltances, whieh no
prudence could pol&bly fortfee or
guard against, the objedt of the expediti
tion was molt completely accomplished,
though the ; rcturn Of the troops engaged in
it to this.country was rendered impossible.
A Court Martial had' been demanded by
Captain Wiifon of the. Riyal artillery, on
tl xrwuduA of Major Armstrong, who .held
a command in that expedition, and was
granted, to try ni-ijor Armstrong on » charge
oi i-nnrwrticeCTl ■Jtfetn'gn ofhs pod ; of
which, afier a complete investigation of
his. whole c»ndu£t, he wai acquitted.
General Coote on this occalion was called
Upon, as one ol th fc present, to give hii
tetlimony as to the tranfa£t>on, without the
smallest interferenfce of hia own, a d aiiua
ted by no perianal resentment or the leall
degree ot malice againll Major Armstrong,
but he c<me there merely as an evidence.
Very after Majiir Armstrong was ac
quitted he fold his commission and a w|»ole
year elapsed before anv thing fur her took
place. At the end of that period, major
Armstrong sent a letter to General Coote,
which he duly received, and which was
dearly to the following purport Sir, I i
(hould not have been thus long silent ref
pefting the at temp to injure my character
by a gro undlqfs prolecutian, in which you 1
toak a chief and active part, had I not been
particularly employed iu Ireland. A» the |
* charges were malicioui in the extreme, and
so framed as to deftroymy fortune, repu
tation, and honor, I trull that, as an officer
and a gentleman, you will not refufc me
such an apology as I have a right to ex
pert." To this letter the following answer
was returned by General Coote :—" I have
to acknowledge the receipt of y ur letter.
The evidei.ee I gave on trial was upon' oath,
ai d according to my. confidence, and of
course explains itftlf, without admitting of
explanation As to what you charge me
with, of taking an a£ti*e part agaiolt you
on that rccaQon, it mull have arisen from
gtoCs mifi I took no part what*
ever in the buliuefs. further than I was
ob ig«d to do, if being called on to give
my evidence,'" Very soon after this, ma
jor rmftrong frnt General Coote the
following letti r which conftitutet the ground
ps the present mution : " Sir, 1 have had
the honaur of teceivirg yours, and caitnot
but express my furpnfe that you, as a geo
tlcman, fh.uld decline the acknowledgment
of your error j and I feel the deepest rrgret
at your retpfal to alhy those sensations
which have been wouadel by your malici
ous evidence.. I expeA you will immedi
ately appeint a time and place for our meet
isg. which I wilt take care to attend with
punctuality. Sould you not consent to
this mode of adjustment, I (hall take the
fitft oppurtunity of addressing you in such a
manner as my wounded honour cannot fail
to dictate ' Upon the receipt of this let
ter, (aid the learned coanfel, this mod hon
ourable a'd ditlicguifhed officer had felt it
to be his duty to make the present applica
tion to the court.
Lord Kenyori I'.iid, the general was per
fedtly right in what he had done.
Mr. Erikine observed, that Gen. Coote
swears he apprehends the contents of this
letter convrya a challenge to fight a duel.
His appeal to the court is to (hew the pub
lic that if insults fimilnr to the present are
permitted with impunity, it is the fault of
the parties concerned, and not of the laws
gf the country.
Lord Keny n said, this letter melt un
doubtedly ppeais, on the fir ft blush of it to
be a lil?el and h* challenge, unlcfs the writer
can otherwifc explain it. Tfcere mult be an
end of public justice if Judges, Jurors, or
*Witne<Tes, were liable to be called to aa ac

But wh'enaman bas launched on the politi

demon of discord w 11 alike Ypark his career

Sir, the portrait of your life has ever been
marked with the fame traits; in'f lerce and
vanity, in glowing colours ftitwe forward in
the piece, while opprefliol) and tyranny lurk

the portrait wa= familiar. Artifta of expe
rience, and artists of taste have wifely judged
that such a poi trait fliould not be placed by
the portraits of Jay and Ellfworth io the
public Hall of State, but left it to fill fame
useless Niche, while others more fplendicl
and more fair, were brought to view ; .yet
while the ferttry (lumbered, it' Ijas 'jijen

tinsel dazzled the "people's eyes,"
been placed in a conspicuous ftatiotr. Here
then, let us analyse it ; let us judge it.; not
by a contrail with those which hang arp.und
it ; for it mocks all contrafl.
The (Irong and the lure criterion by which
to judge of man corre&ly, is the comp irifon
of his profrffions with his condnfl. Cata
line and Cato, Sidney and Cromwell cijuW
alike speak mufir to the ear; the patriot
can modulate his voice to .the ears of the
mob ; kut virtue alone ii confident ; h'e'r
pr> fcflloni are not at variance with Mr

, I will not recite the facility with which
your toygue wa> tuned to the Drain Of op
position, vhen Britain passed the (lamp aftj,
nor the key which tuned it.; I will not tra'c<
the vibrations of your mind 'till it was fet
tled by the fees of a colkctorlTupj when this
gold Which propped it up was withdrawn by
the royal order ; I will not purfue'it 'till the,
dreams of popularity it on the other
extreme ; I will not analyse the T,
will not examine the eonftitutionafift of
1780, nor the easy tmfitii-n which inte:eft'
could make to thefederalift of 1788 ; I will
not trare the feelings of pride and vr.nitjr
and revenge ; I will not explain the state*
of that mind which experienced rlegle&'and

where it was chained by the hydra of jaco.

riore than speculate. The moralist might
