    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.

The /allowing Letter from an American of mforma. a
lion in London, to his brother in this City, contains '>
many interefiing ideas. Itl

" 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. .

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

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. The inevitable great'
course of events will make us carriers for France, little
riollaud, and, even for Great Britain. As to the tain t
