Thcref re the regulation of the 26th
Ju y. 1778, article 2, after having Rated
that the mailers of neutral veffVls (hail prove
at fta their property being neutral, by pass

veflel f>ap e rs, adds one of which at ltaft flijll
eftabliib th<- property being rcutral, or fl»a ! l

It is not then neceflary in ev<;ry cafe to
prove the property neutral by the' fipiilita

rated a 'he regulations. But it is fufficient
according to th. circumllances, that \it;« cf
these papers ertablifh the property, if it is
not oppof d or deilroyed by more peremp

The ain point in every cafe is, that the
jtfdge may be fatimed that the, property is
ueli'.ral or uct.
We ' ave a precedence of what I aflVrt,
in th; art* 6, of the rtgr.'ation «»f the 2ttt

oniy of the papers having been thrown over

Some difficulties arose on the execution
of that lev re cinufe of the law. which has
beer by the regulation of 1778.
On tlie 13th November, 1779, the King
vro;e to the admiral, that he let' entirely to

of prizes tT apply the rigidity of the decree,
of the regulation of the 26th of July,

As to their claim for damages and interef
—I mull obfeuVe that such a claim is no

, caj.tun . may ocrafion the initiate of the cap

of tbe captors cannot, be exrufed, the cap
tured have a right to damages and .intcr-'J.
Let us apply these principles to thec uif'.

by her flaf, Ivy her destination, by the crew

Ly fervic.es he has rendered to the French
nation, by the' register, the passport, the in
voice, by the papers on board, finally, by the
-place where Ihe was captured, which was far
from any suspicious deflination. It was
then impofTible for the cap.ors to count
any millr.ke ; the veflel Hruck hercoloursat

faithfuj declarations, they anfvyered plainly
in their-examination ; 110 pretence whatever
was left to the captors ; they don't appear
to have ebferved the forms prcfcribed by the
regulation. Some very heavy charges are
littered against them—but I think it is not
time yet to take notice of tlx'm, they will
be d'.fcuffed when the articles captured-are
reflored.
In these circumflances I am of opinion,
that a more absolute and full replevy be

Mfti RHITOR,
H.\ PPF.NING to take up the Auroia
of iafl liuiifd.lv, I.cad iny eye upon a long
aud tedious piece which I am totally unable
to comprelfiii], l-ren*. several pompouslno.
ticesj which have lately been given out, in
hat paper, and frotn repeated promif;s of
'fficial documents whtiih are to exhibit Tvlr.
1 racy to the world, as a m'noder of iniquity
tnd baseness, I have been induced tofeippo(e
■ hat this fafrago of politics, nonsense, hifto
rV» fu'lts, biography and what not, was
irtfirnded as an attack, of fonie kind or'otht r,
upon the charafter of that gentleman. In
perusing the tinner, I found a number of co
lumns filled with promiscuous abuf j in tke
ulual Aurora abounding in bold and
(luiderous afiL-rtions, with no other colour
of fuppont than the ipse dixit of the writer.
At length, however, np'pesr* in capitals
THE DOCUMENT,
which, from its awkward inconfiflency, I
Ihould take to he an intended lirel upon lit

difgrac.; and flanjer his friends, in the. very
a£l of attempting to traduce wife and wor

Perhaps it may amuse feme of your readers
to take up the piece and examine the fevers!
disjointed pans as they there fond.

vernment, on the fubjeft of national mea
sures. It for {everal .months, hern a
favorite and hackreycd topic, with the wri
ters in thai p\pi-r, to boafl of the wonderful
hai'mony and unanimity, of the demotrnt?.
arrd to charge the federiilifts with diveifity of
opinion relative to public aflYir?. The faft
is granted,and Dr. Swift (lull acsount for
"jit.
Says the Dean of St. Patrick's ; " If we
examine whit Societies of men are in cloftfl
union among thenifelves, we (hall find them
to be either thole who are engaged in some
evil design, or who labour under one com
mon misfortune. Thus the troops of ban
ditti in several countries abroad, the knots
of higbwoymen in our own natinn, the se
veral tribes of sharpers, thik.vrs and tick
pockets, with many others, are so firmly knit
top-ether, that nothing is mo;rdiflkult th«n
to break or dissolve their gangs. So
lil:ewife, those who are fe'llow-fjffVreis un
.der any miffortund, fn*h as that grievous
persecution, of the modern kind, called want
of power, are usually c'ontrafted into a very
drift 'union. The reason why such confe
deracies ape kept so sacred and inviolable is
very plain ; because, ip eSrh of those cases
which I have mentioned, the whole body is
moved by one spirit, in pursuit of one gene
ral end, an" the iorereft of individuals is not
crossed by each other or by the whole."
How far each of these Cnufri, fepnrately,
or both combined operate to produce the
boasted unanimity of the Jacobins, I leave
to be decided by the conferences (if perad
venture they have any) ol certain Justices
• f the peace in Pennsylvania, and of certain
Jacobin committers who earnestly recom
mend themselves, as fumble candidates to
fill the vacant offiees in the flat? at the next
rleftion.
" On the other hand, continues the Dean,
" those who r.iisb, -w-ll to the public, and
would gladly contribute to its fcrvice, are
apt to differ in their opinions slnut the
methods of promoting it, and when their
party ilouriflies, aie sometimes envious at
those in power ; ready to overvalue their
own merit, and be impatient until it he re
warded by the meafnre which they have pre
ferred for themselves." '
The remainder of this column is devcfd
to,,the abuse of Mr. dickering, Mr. Hamil
ton k.c' See. Next follows what the writer
calls, " a history of th- politics of the State
of Conneflicut." The firft sentence is to
tally unintelligible, unlrfs to fmhashav
been inftrufted in the language of the
Aurora, and of Hibernia. In it, however,
may be found the aff.rrtion, such as it is,
that " the provincial adminiflration were
the marts of rapacity and corruption."
This, I fnppofe, with Jacobin readers, who
ufiially' know as little of grammer and ®f
Englifli as the writer himfelf, will be fuffi
cient .to atone for a whole paragraph ot
fehfelefs jargon ; especially when their own
ignorance and that of their author induce,
them to fuppot; that this aiminiHration was
at the dilpofal and under the controul of the
ourt of Great Britain, The hiftorian
then goes on to talk abojit " gangs of pro
fligate?, of noble or influential families de
pendants on the crown, who, in return for
the corrupt services of their friends, in par
liament or ellewhere, were provided for in
the colonial government offices."
Allowing all this and much more of the
fume kind to be true, I perceive not the in
ference orthe application to Mr. Tracy. It
is w?ll known that that gentleman and all
his family connexions were warm and
hearty advocates for the revolution. But
the truth is. that none of thef'e " noble
families" and " dependants on the crown"
were ever 1 in From the Si'ft
frttlement of that state to the present day,
no office civil or military, was ever at the
I difp ifdT of the orowh , snci ofcouiTe, none
j Cou!d be provided with " g.iiternrnent offices,''
jas ijfc calls thrwij" in rwoiii F«' r the corrupt
| lervice: of their friends." The revolution'
■ has not changed the internal government of
! Oornedtk'tt. ill a fiogjc tittle. Nat even
with relpett to tie iornis of elections or
the appointment of executive anj tnimftrria)
officers, Thefc f els are palpable ; and any
fdiool bjjy jn America, who hid read, in his
geography, the rmiire of the.fever.J coionial
government!, previous to the revolution,
would be whipped for not knowing them.
Billy i? however fair; ; for I believe there is
>;Q obligation upou.a shameless I, isb v.igravt
to ki)ow tliefe things, and no liw acknow
ledged or aeled upon by his writers, which
obliVes them to communicate either truth cr
fthfe.
To this focceeds an equally accurate, asd
so far as I can discern, an equally ap licablc
ftpry refpefiing Yale College a> d th clergy
of Connefticut ; a llory altogether too falfe
and too crude to ftacd in iiced of anjr rtfu
tation.
After wadi g through b-tween two and
three columns of this k nd, which I fuppufe
the writer hirrifelf would dtnominite THE
TRASH, the weary and bewildered tra
veller is invit d 1i resume Impatience' Ihe
encouraging signal of T E F \CTS, which
he beholds hit :g out in capitals before him,
induces him to pr ceed and to hope for a
cleaner pafTage.
Let us accompany him thcri a little far
ther. Here, un!ef» you have been accu 'om
ed to the \uivr , y u will be fuiprifed to
fihd, undrT this pmmifing title, that Mr
Tracy is impudent y charged with the mod
flagrant dishonesty and the meanest falfehood
without even a pretended prpuf of a single
fadl alledged. All that is pretended is, that
an a&;on was commenced againtt Mr. Tracy
for the recovery of a sum of money. Thii
nay at all timss be do;-e at the instigation
cf a Ivirby or aVy other democrat, agar.ft
an man, however hoiteft. Wheth r this
aftion was a serious and honourable suit for
the recovery of a just debt will fufficiently
appear from an examination merely of this
mighty
DOCU MENT,
which purports to be the copy of a writ of
attachment, directing the proper officer to
attach the pr pertv of Mr. Tracy to the a
meunt of two thousand five hundred dollars,
t» be held in the custody of the law, I n
order for T» ial ; and, in ease of a judg
ment for thk plai ::ti ffs, to fatisfy a
demand made upon him by certain mer
chants in New-Tork. The declaration al
ledges, thtft certain obligations, the pro
perty of the plaintiffs. had, by them been
put into the hands of Mr. Tracy, for col
leftion, and that he had, at d fferent times,
collcfted, but refufed to pay over, the sev
eral sums there particularly mentioned
Thife by computation, will be found to a
mount to one thou/and, three hundred andfor
ty-one pmuds, feve 1 /hilling* and Jivt fence,
lawful money ; in confederation of which
leveriil sums 11: us colKfted ar.d u»jullly de
tained, he is declared to be indebted to the
plaintiffs, in the sum of six Hvhbmsd and
fifty poi nds lawful money, for the re
covery of which, with costs, this suit is de
clared to be brought,
Now, whether the plaintiffs, out of mere
con>paflion to Mr; Tracy, kindly remitted
a little more than half the sum which was
thus wickedly and fraudulently detained,
and-which, frpm the items in the declara.
tion, appears to have been justly due to
them ; or whether Billy's draught fin «n only
took care to put in enough, and had not
tune or talents to put them tvgetiier and
find the amount ; or whether a certain ten
der hearted, tffeilinnattf Jacobin, at Litch
field, happened involuntarily to fall in love
with Mr. Tracy's feat in the Senate, and
took this method todireft the affe&ions of
the peoplf to the proper objed, I will not
attempt to determine. The cafe is ■ fairly
llatrd to the pub Tic who will judgi for them
felv-s.
I know nothing of Mr. Tracy's domeflic
affairs or private bufinti's. lie may, for
aught that lon uy, hive owed money
which he could not, at tlietinie, command.
It has been the cafe of ma- y wortl'.y men,
wiio have ruined their private fortunes in
ihe puMic service, and who have met with
Gmilar gratitude as the reward of their fa
crifices. But when such' a thing as this is
produted, under the .name ot a legal docu
ment, a thing upon which no Court of law
would fuffer a trial to be sustained, a thing
which carries, in its own face, tbe 1110 ft
evicient marks of having been filtered up
for,the sole purpose to which it is now ap
plied; when such a thing as this is em
ployed to blast the reputation of a gentle
man of h : ,gh refpeftsbilily and long tiit-d
integrity, and relied upon as a thing fuSi
cient to prove him a cheat, a liar, a scoun
drel, a downright Jaccbin ; and all this
too, without the pretence of a legal adju
dication, or even »F a vfhen this
is that Jacobin industry, envy and
malice thcvnfelves can conjure pp, I think
that every man must, irreliftably and forci
blv feel th*t the chara«£\er of Mr. Tracy is
indebted to the abortive efforts of his ene
mies) for a species of luflre, which his best
friends and even his own' bright aftions
cou'd nevfer have bestowed upon it.
