miift have been the (hocking answer of our envoy to tins abominable proportion, & pretty certain I am, that some such villainous proposal was made and acceded to. Not that there is the fmalleil degree of truth in the observations, but it is so like the I language of the atiftocrats, that I would venture a wager that something very like it took place ;~ and hence the call for pipers, to come at the bot tdm ot this affair. Grcnville we well know to be a foul-mouthed fellow, from what he said of us to Mr. Pinckney, and Jay is but too well disposed to I chuckle at, and approve of his abuse ; therefore I there is more than mere fufpieion, that we have been fcttrvily treated in this negociation, and, like men of true spirit, are determined to have fatisfac tion, cod what it will. A True Patriot. I ■ - ■—— J ( NEW-YORK," April 27. The /allowing Letter from an American of mforma. a lion in London, to his brother in this City, contains '> many interefiing ideas. Itl I P " London, Dec. 30, 1795. fc " My Dear Brother, * I fc , " With refpeft to the (late of public affairs in f America, we are at present in a suspense, which is unpleasant enough. Much will depend upon the c proceedings of Congress at this time, and I conftfs the western political Iky looks rather more lower ing than 1 cutild wi(h. " There is nothing very remarkable in the pre sent situation of European politics. There have I 1 been recently some symptoms of an approximation j ifJ towards a peace; but little dependant is to be c. placed upon them. Before the close of the season all the pa, tie. at war will be in great wuit of bread,' and 1 do not know but tliey wilTjrafn it off frum America, even beyond what we could w-ifh. But iu a national point of view, the advantages of utu- ' trahty ate increasing in Geometrical proportion to 1 abs the United States. In the course of the year now me expiring it has given us peace with the Indians ' I )ril peace with Algiers, and a Treaty with Spain -I j the Let the Mediterranean be fairly opened to our - PC ' Commerce, and the consequences will soon be felt mrefpeft to other branches of trade. In.thi.com.- f„t« try the reftridlive system is already gasping, and fpoi will be forced to yield for a time, at lead, to necef- zeil fity. But there seems to be people in America, we l V enou S h aware of aH these things, or gre: who think like Mandeville, that national happinrf, ty ' and virtue are inseparably conneftcd with national Urn weakness and poverty. . it r n 1 *• _ . nitei The neutrality of the present time has not on. ado; / Produced an unexampled eourfe of profperitv 2V( during the period itfelf,-but"ha« laid the foundation cons for a fenes of advantages, which I cannot imagine ced that madnefs.itfelf would throw away. Our noli n ° U tical dependence upon France, and our commeU j Z* dependeucc upon Britain, have both fteen *rcat aid «« heavy clog, upon us from the time of peace to this drop day. £.Yerjr hour of neutrality now lias a teuden- ****** cy to extricate us from both thefa fhaineful deven- the r dencies, and to make us a really and completely i„- , dependent people. The demands upon the articles of our produce will undoubtedly continue very he ve great for fevcral ensuing years.
