GSN'TLEM I *,
In every act of my adminilbratioo I have fought
the Inppinris of my ftliovv citizens. My fyffcm for
the attainment of this obj ft has uniformly been to
overln jk sll perf >n»l, loca',. and partial confederations,
to contemplate t(je United St»tr» a» <»•>« n>-«atw>hiv f,
to confide that Hidden imprrflions, when erroneous,
•svoald viehj to candid reflation, and to confuh on-
Jy the fiibftantial and permanent interests of oar
Country.
N.ir have I departed from this line of conduct,
on the oeeafion which has produced the icfolutions
Contained in your letter of the ijth '"ft-
Without a pre.'.ile£lion for my own judgment, 1
have weighed with attention every argument which
has at any time been brought into view—But the
Cm (lit ut ion is the guide which 1 can never abandon.
]t has a (Tinned to the Prefii ent the power of making
Treaties with the advice a;id consent of the Senate.
It was doubtless supposed that these two branches
of government would combine without paflion, and
with the bell means of ins rriMti in, those farts and
principle* upon which the success of our foreign re
lations will always depend ; that they onght not to
substitute for their oivn conviction the opinions ofo
theis s or to seek truth thr nigh any channel but
that of a temperate and well informed inve ligation.
Under this persuasion, I refolvel on the
manner of executing the dutylwfore me. lo the
high refponlibility attached to it, I freely'- submit ;
and yon, gentlemen, are at liberty to make these
sentiments k'lown a« the grounds of my procedure.
While I fed the moit lively gratitude for ihemany
intances of approbation from my cpuntty, I can he
trtherwife dcfei ve it than by obeying the dlitales o
my eoafcience.
With due refpeft,

board laid sloop, together with S. A. Hiffer, citizen of
Bolton, and Capt. Chabert, also a paflenger on
said sloop, all of,whom on oaths, declire, that
yesterday at j o'clock in the afte noon, being the firll
day of August, inftart, they were at a distance of two
miles from the light houff, in Narraganfet bay, in said
sloop, bouad to Newport; when being opposite the
fame, a Britilh (hip of war the Africa, commanded by
Home, fired a cannon (hot at said (loop, as a figrial to
bring her too j that the (loop had then American lulors
flying; that the mailer obeving the signal, soon per
ceived two boats coming to the sloop from the (hip of
war, which boats were manned by a part of the crew
of this (hip, and out of which came four or fivs officers,
two of them appearing to be higher in command than
the'others, ordered the captain,of the laid sloop to go
near to the (h p,with u'hich order he complied, and soon
anchored astern of the said (hip ; that, n the mean time,
the officers asked the said- master of tne (loop several
queftijiHS,particularly if he had any paflingers on board,
ami he answering to this question in the affirmative, was
to'd by them that they came on purpol'e to take the
late French mraifter, M. Fauchet, whem they knew to
be on boaad with dispatches ; that the master aud pas
sengers then informed them that M. Fauchet had left
the sloop in the m iming, at Sto:)ington, where they
had been detained two days, by contrary wihds ; and
that he hid also left Stonington aforefaid,on horseback,
with dispatches and public papers, which were ail
taken out or pasteboard boxes, as a proof of the lad
aflertion, fhew«J the said boxes empty, five in number,
that M. Fauchet had really let ; the officers, not fa is-
fied with the answers given, said their # ordsrs were poj;
tive, and dirtied them to search all the trunks of the
pafTengers, at which proceeding they hoped no one on
board would be hurt, as their duty requited the fame ;
that,tjwy accordingly had all the trunks and b 'xes in
the cabin opened, and not finding any papers they went
into th* hold, where having ordered iVI Fauchet's fer-
■ant to open the trunks of his mister, they had them
mptied, in prsfenoe of all the paflengtrs, and out of
one cf '.he trunks, they took a bundle of paper, which
■ hey gave to otie of the officers in care, when the search
wen- on for the other trunk*; thai they then asked for
;wo other trunks of N4. Fauchet, faying that they had
notice of four trunks (hipped on board the said (loop.
and feeing: several otht r trunks flowed about, they, the
said officers demanded the owners ; that one of these
belonging til Capt. Cliahprt, afore nam- d, a gentleman
engaged in commercial and £.afaring bufincfs, was over
hauled and the p.ipers confiding chiefly of sea-books,
or journals, examined and put afnle wi.h a tin box,
Containing some fiaperj. with letters diredied to dif
ferent perl'ons in France; that thev then fell

defircdro havs.t opened,threatening a.no oneftrpped
forward with the key, to break the lock thereof; tnat
M. ri. hon then went forward and opened the trunk,
wiiich proved to be full of written under clothes;
these thrown cut, they observed t .at it was-the trunk
ot M. Fauchet's secretary, and that i:» containing furh
a quantity of papers, was a fufficicnt reason for taking
it on" board the (hip, for the ihfpcflion of the Captain of
th° (hip ; that an officer then vent on board the (h:p
with such papers as he thought proper to take with him,
that he might receive the orders of-the commanding
officer relative thereto, and relative to further procecd
:ngj, that this officer soon returned and permitted the
{loop to depart, faying that the main obje<?t being
miffed, no further detention was necefiary,and return
ing the papers which he had taken on board 'he (hip,
and that the two boats having left the (loop, after a de
tention of two hours, fee came to fail and arrived at

NEW YORK. 14.
From a Correjpondrnt.
The following is a fart in substance of the very de
cent letter written by Capt. Home, of the Bntifr
ship Africa, to the British consul at Newport, and
to be communicated to the Gdvernor, allud d ti
under the Providence bead, and received from good
authority.
Captain Home states the necefiity of procuring flip
plies tor his velTcl—he had received information-thai
hii people visiting the shore for that pnrpofe would
meet with miiilt—This led him to claim the attention
equal to what was received by the cit(2ens of the
French republic, and to complain of the disregard of
the American« tothe h\*» of nations.
He demanded, and that not feigncd'j, the aid <5f the
citil authority to imprefifuch Dritiih feaineri as fliould
be found on shore.
He alleoged that a Britifli officer was taken from a
vefic! in Newport, and imprisoned on board the French
Frigate laying there, whom he demanded to bexeleafcd.
An immediate reply was required from the Governor ;
He (hould haul his ship into the harbour of Newport
If his people were infuiteu by a mob, er any indivi
dual—he Jhould pi oteil ihem.
.Note. The captive officeV alluded to appears to be
the fame that Was taken by a French privateer and at
the time of Capt. H's application, was it) New-York

Extrait of a letter fr.m Havre, dated the 2id June,
to a g? tleman in 1 his city»
The manufa&ories of this country have been nearly
d(P.roved — what by requisitions, and what" by the war
ring of faclions. However, I think it will fpetdily
revive, on a peace, which every thing in my mind be
gins to foretel. On the firft Prairial, there was a great
r'rlai of the disposition of the people, and I have no
doubt from the evens of that day, and the three fol
iowmg, of which I was a'very attentive witness, that
the principle of the revolution has taken perfect root.
Fl*at the people of Frajice have infinite merit, they
always obey the laws, but "he evil has beeu, the law
lias been abu Ted—but tranquility will put the power
into the hands the peoplechufe, who will not abuse it.
The bloody reign of Kob-fpierre is finally at an end,
•and his memory more deftoftcd thar. that ol any tyrant
you can name to the French.

Mr Bapcock,
Your pivine the foliowinp a p'acr in your uieful pap-r,
--A - -
will be'pleafing at least to one ot you readers
IT was highly pleasing to ine, to fee in your paper
of the oth June, an account of the fufptnfion of the
sentence aga.nft Fogel and Mitebrl, by the Supreme
Executive I 'till November next. These men were ccn
demi.ed for treason. Now,'tis certain thai some of
our natural rights must bt given up tor a civil (tare.
But no man ever bought hinifclf obi' cd give up
far a civil itate, what lie had no right to dispose ot.
And I fancy men are generally that they have
not a right to dispose of their'own lives, but confides
their r : to life as -what they cannot alienate or tr-in.-
fer. It is difficult therefore for me to fee, how a man
offending >gainst the state, forfeits his life to tl.e states;
or the right government have to take it away. We
live in a uay of free inquiry. And to our joy fee the
religious Dogmas that have.in past ages lupported
Superstition, under the name of J?, ligoni exploded and
exploding more and *no;'C. '7 is to he wished that
I some lkill'd in jurifprndence would turn their atten
tion to the laws in being, and fee if there is nothing
ill them that wants altering and amending. But 1
comfort myfelf that our Supreme Executive is wile
and good ; a..d will give the wofld a better example
rfian it has hitherto had: And that the day is not very
far off when men will conlider it as unjust and impo
litic to late away the life of anyVerfoii, without orders
from the great giver and disposer thereof, as to charge
the whole race of men with the fin and guilt of the

of phe country, becaufc it can o j ily apply to the policy
of liberating the ntga.es now adluafty in.the United
•'t*tes but, th»t fuel a hue ant?cry should be raised on
the fcbiea of those who have made their, escape, and
from whom we hive nothing to dread,.is.not only anti
republican, but immoral and scandalous in the extreme.
If the perfot.s who are daily obtruding.their dull essays
on the public, m favour of compensation, were to re'er
to the -aa« of the National Convention of France, t'nev
would find, that this point has been decided a-»a*nTl
them—for the French have liberated all the ftav sin
tiieir colonies, vithoiit making any" compensation to
their mafiers I
It;is worthy of remark, however, that this sfl which
took pjfcrf duriftg the rdmmiftratiert o£ Robcfpierre, is
the only one, thai has not been approbated and extolled
by his partjian» in the United Stated-a convincing
proof that fe'f-interefl forms the toucl.Oonc of patriot
ism with all modern democrats. In'one of thefputhern
state* for example, liberty and equality are so
well under flood, that a cithten has been oUigcd from
motives of p< rfonal fafety, to mike a public apology or
dar,"% to queflion the propriety of fort' verv lawieft
and difgratehi! proceedings—where a f.nall portion of
the inhabitants are feading and loJling in the shade,
M'hi'it graier part are compelled to work up to,
the knees in water, txpoftd to the scorching rays of th£
fun—and where solemn fcftivals are celebrated to com
memorate the ,?d of September, 1791. The most pro*
found fi'ence has been obierved.on the fubjefl of the only
circumstance from which Robespierre could poffibiv de
rive any merit. '
I shall dismiss this fubjedl with observing, that if the
point ill dispute was to he submitted to a jury of real
and .lifinterefted republicans, there can be no doubt,
ware ».! K Bnij/h
compensation it ngw demanded: rui to .i,.«
any civilized nation would folemn'y stipulate rhat their
veflels fbould not aflord asylum to pcrfons who had
escaped from slavery, is an absurdity too prof? to be
credited-—And although ] frankly, ronf'efn that the
■reaty does not come up to my wifhes—ytt I cannot ad»
mit, that the stipulations therein contained, are liable
trail the objctfic ns which have been raised against them
— much lef; that it i» cenfiirable for the otniffion nf in
