FRANCE.
Theatjtounts that vc have received for Tome time
concerning France have been, asufual. iomcwhat 0011
tradiilory. Nor is this to be wondered at. Not only
are the individuals, from which the reports "originate,,
fwiyed by (lifTWrent intereffs. but even men
of perfedl candour and (incerity, Jnd who -have no o
ther views thin those of truth, are exceedingly liable
to be deceived in- the eftiin-ttes they form of the adlual
condition, fentiroents, dispositions and dvfigns, of a
people so numerous, f® versatile, so corrupt, and, in
proportion to their corruption, open to the influence
of i:Hrigue and fa&ion. Were' France a kingdom of
small or but muder-at* extent, were the French a Hea
dy, fimpleand honest people, itmightbe -pofiible «o
form tome probable-judgment concerning the conduift
they would ho!d>at the present crisis. As peace is,be
'yond all doobt, their interest; their interest, even' if"
they were to place their fuprenae interest in political
po-ver and grandeur ; so it might be pretty certainly
prediifled, that pacific.councils would prevail in the
great aflembly of the nation. Peace would heal up her
wouedsl revive agriculture, • manufaflures arid con
merce; consolidate her-government in fume form or
■ other; and place in hand, as heretofore, the balance
of "the greater part of Europe. The juvenile ardour
of a naicent republic, would carry her on, by a rapid
progrelfion, in a_fp!endid career of various "improve
ment ; and a large increase of wealth and. of know
ledge, would reader Jier capable of the greateit at
chievements of war ; if, indeed, "in that progress to
wards the perfeflicn of human nature which was the
grandprmciple oh which her philosophers set out in
the revolution, (he (houhi not attain to so much wifdsm
as to be pervaded, that there is. a degree of national
glory, as-well as of felicity, luperior far to what is to
be procured by fore? of arnis_ In the natirral course
of .events, the Netherlands would be united., in feme
Jhape or other, and by Ame means or either, with
France ; and her empire, bounded only by the Alps,
the Pyrennees, the Rhine and the might form
and execute grander designs than any that were ever
•••executed, or ever, conceived hv the greatefl-emperors ; '
deflgns not of political ambition and conquefl ; not of ]
ilupen J ous pyramids, or mountains and rocks ftiaped '
into fantaflic forrtfi by millions of hands in the lapse '
of ; but defgns of 'yhilolbphy, for the genera) 1
comfort of,maniwid, and the aggrandizement of hu- '
man nature. But if, «n the other hand, the national 1
aflembly should persevere in the war, the refourees of '
the nation, though great, yet annually jiminifhipg, c
meil fail at last j if the enemies of France (fcould stlfo
reTolve to perl'evere in the struggle. They have teen t
fticcefsful in the firft years of the war; as always \
has been, and also mull be the cafe, where a whole, or (
a great part of a people, marches forth to war, into
the territories of thair neighbours. They find supplies
ia those territories for a time ; hut, .when these are ex- c
haufted, they are under a tieceffity of either advancing
or retreating. If they advance, they weaken their bo- '
dy by dilatation, and they present mimberlels advaD- v
tages over them to their saemies, vrhofe armies on the r
frontiers formed but a small part of their population. t
If they retreat into their own country, they cannot
long mike head against eonftant and active aflailants, ,
iinlefs it can befuppofed that it is possible to carry on
pirpetual war with their rjicft .powerful neighbours, '
and, at the'fam« time, afford a fufficient number of a
hands for agriculture, and a certain pertion, too. of c
the neeeffiry manufactures and commerce. It would a
be (onfideretl, toe, by the French nation, wereihev
guided by good sense and pure .intentions, constant
war must th*aw them, sooner or later, info the hands
of the army, or, which it the sara& thing, «junto us v
leading men in their aflejnbly, who influence and direil v
the army. Something very like this has happened alt
ready. It was by means of the army that the Nation- t
al Aflembly, that is, the ruling party in the National r
Aflembly, controlled the Parisians, and the citizens of r
other large cities, and continued their power by the re
«*.efti®n of two thirds of their rmmber.
•Snch are the reflefiions that, in our judgment, weiild a
occur to a sober and sensible people: fush -are not the '
JEreitch. And, to conjedlure concerning the conduct i
of such arrogant, b.zarre, and infuriated beings, is c
difficult ; though entirely to abstain from all conjeflure a
i* impdffible. The Sovereign power of France, at the
present moment, Teems to be lodged in a collufioo, or
coalition, between the leaders of the National Aflem
bly and the army. The Aflembly have paid the army 1
nobly, and they will continue tq pay them, if net with a
p-!per, with plunder. The army, in return, have a
done every thing for the National Aflembly. This g
mutual complaisance may continue during the v,-ar ; G
but, on the conclufior. of a peace, it mull come to a j
period. Then it must be decided with which party the
benefit of this combination-is to remain .it last. This v
is not our present qucftion ; though it he, to a eertsin F
degree connected with it. Our present enquiry is, hew
far the passions and interells of the Executive.Gorern
jnentof I ; ra«ee, including the Direxflory and the ar- n
»y, will probably incline them to the cantinuanceof a
war, or rtie restoration of pcace. It ocsuts, at firft
fight, that the voice of the army must flillbe for war. "
But if we Ihould reason from most other armies to the f
army of ;the republic, we might fall into at) error. In \
moll other armies military ideas prevail over civil; in li
the French army civil ideis,prevail over military* ; both a
officers and men may naturally be fijppofed to wish for e
a return into the bosom of their families andtheirccou- t
try, and there enjoy in tranquillity the honors and the
rewards of their iervices. A certain degree of com- "
penfation, we ondeiiland, is decreed even to the priv
ares- And employment may be provided for them in
the tonllruilion of harbours, canals, and other public I 1
vrorks, until a demand for labour grow out peace d
and returning commerce. ;
On (he wliole, it is our opinion, that, in the French
army, military ideas do not yet predominatelover those
of patriotifir. and civil liberty ; although -they might C
probably be found to predominate at lad : a confidera- '
tion that Ihouldinduee the f civil powers of France to E
make peace, on aiVy reasonable terras, as fact as poifi- v
ble. r , £
But, on the other bind, the minlfters of Frarwe, if
they were to make peat e, would unddubiedly lale their t
places; for it is fearcely to befuppofedthat they could,
in their present circvmflances, make such a peace as ' r
would fatisfy the natiojial vanity and ambition so com- *
pletely as to fliield them from al! th« arrows of embit- a
tered'rivals. Suppofiiig them however, to poflefs so t
great a degree of virtue as to facnfice private ambition
and interest, and the attachment too of their numerous
treatures depending on war, to retain such materials as
the French, in anv form, or fimihtude to a form, of ,
civil government .' '
It ha»been afivroed, by many politi*! : writsrs pro
founcly vcrfnnt in history, that every extenfivs repub- a
lie must be a conquering power ; because, if it does v
net expand hi'elv v itht'ur, it nnitl be defroysd within, e
by its o\< n ii.ternrl a#!on. And it is said bv others, IJj
that if evei tiveit Aas a republic incapable, by nature, ; j,
of internal peace, -without external comnrefljon, it is ,
Fran<e; the r.ul-fe of apes and tygers. Certain it is,!

If, therefore, peace is ever to be reftered to France, it
c is pechaps to spring out of a ger.ci Jl fit;ety ant! abhor
rence of the present system, that J\as hitherto produced
.. nothing at home byt crimes, difllnfions, disorder and

j that thejjaflwn of the French nation for a repub!icrn

c and it is far frombeir.g improbable that a time jniay
t come-when there may he a general reflux towards mo

By adhering to oyr p 1 cf parfedl impartiality, asd
f- giving the pro and the eon on all fu&jeil's ot primary
] importance, to the beS of our ability, we.Jiave.inetfr
, retl, as we forefaw, occafior.al cenliice froin all par
. ties|. It-has been imputed to tis a» a weakness, to
, tertain any doubt concerning riie question, whether
the French or the allies u'ere, in the present war, the
aggreflbrs. The war, it was observed when the cen
.. sure was conveyed, was proveked by the treaty or con
. ventionof Piinitz. -It be urged v/ith plaulibili
ty, at lead, on the other fide, that intentions of am
algamating all the neighbourhaad wiA their own gov
ernment had been avowed and lirongly expressed by_
m«ny members of great influence in the Afi'embly 5
and that It was itnpoffible for human nature, even in si
tuations the moft«?levated above the power of sympa
thy, to behold, without fone movement of compas
sion, the treatment of t*he royal family of France. But
if a doubt of this fuhjecS is to becenftrued, by an op
ponent, into a partiality for administration, how can
iuch a one suppose that a friend of the .mir.iiters will
not also cotrflrue as a partiality of a contrary kind,
what is said in the lame, and the iijbfequent pages, and
that total want of generalization or plijiofophy which
has chara&erifed our councils in the whole of the pre
feitt war ? H«w can such a person suppose that the
•friends of administration have not at lca2 eqcil cause
to bring a charge partiality for oppofi(ioii ? But if
is impoflible io be partial to them both, i bprefofC we
are not pariiat to either. All this reai'ohing will go for
nothing with zealots on either ftde. It is addreiled to
the-candid and impartial; a fmalKa«dience,bat wliich,
we doubt not, on the grand points that have for some
time been maintained in this Monthly Retrofpett of
the adtive world, will by and by be augmented.
Although we eannot praise administration any
more than any of the allies, in the conduit of the
war, yet we hefttate not to declare, that -we do not
fee how it is possible to make peace with.the French
unless they be willing to abandon their conquests
on the Rhine.
The conclusion of such a peace would ultimate
ly, and at 110 great distance of time, exalt the na
val power of France over that of Britain. But a
notlier consequence of fueh an event would threaten
us, more immediate and mora tremendous. Should
a war unneceflary in its origin, in thi opinion of
some, and imprudent in its conduct in that of moie,
be fcdlowed by a peace ingloriom and pregnant
with loss and da.iger in the judgment of all;
coulti the taxes neceflary in order to wind up the
arrears of such a war be imposed and collected with
perfcdl ease and fafety ? Rather than make such n
peacejit would-feem to be expedient tocontinyethe
war hazards. And, now that we have ended
where we (hould have begun, in naval war, and have
the advantage of a.very able and active naval miuif
ter, we may carry on war, at less expence then for
merly, and with greater advantage. Though -the
refourcesof the Frcnch according to our eonftant
and confident prediction, have survived their affign
ats, they are not altogether inexhawftible. By de
lays in the accomplishment of the btft foiinded pre
diftionsmcn arefomctimes ledtoconfider them as
delulions. Thus, people confined by bad weather
are apt to cry out that it will never be fair. Let
us beware of afimilar error.
But it -will-be said, that, if we (hall be obliged
to make an unfafe and inglorious more
and rnore.effbrtp and expeoces,- the dangers above
alluded to, on winding up arrears, will only be the
greater. This is true : and, therefore, it mnft be
owned, that our situation is Angularly arduous. We ■
(hall conclude, from the whole of the cafe, that in
war there is yet a ray of hope, in an inglorious
peace nothing but the darkness of despair.

To the Magistrates of the City of PhiladelbiAa.
Gentlemen,
It is with the utmost concern that 1 again find
myfelf under the necefiky of addressing you on a
grievance which I at firlt supposed needed but to
have been mentioned to have'been remedied,! mean'
the Pharo Tables which have been eftablifoed in
this city. But perhaps you either thought that
(hame would have been a fufficient check to meo
for the future from attending them ; or, that a
newspaper-was not a fufficient authority for you to
aft upon. To the full of these idea* I {hail only
answer, that shame is the passion of half fortotH
villains, and piirlt therefore soon quit the bread of
the habitual gameder ; to the second, i am willing
to allcw all -reafonsble weight, and-of confrquence
gram that such information would not befufficient,
for the arreting a perfen on a criminal charge, for
an indiAment before a court of jurtice, or ic ftiort,
for any crime of a private natuie. But when you
come to refledt on the importance of the £übje£t
now under confiderau'on, ahd the impojfilility of
getting an.y private citizen to come pubfi lyfor
ward before a court of justice as an informer, you
will then fee the necessity you are. Huder for the
preservation of the remaining morals of our youth, (
if you (hould think them worth the preserving, to
come fetward and aft upon the notoriety of the f
cafe, it-were indeed to be •atijbei, that fume per- '
son whose fittistiop in life would (hield him from all '
those aspersions which are generally thrown out on '
tbe character of an informer would come forward, '
but this is not to be hoped for. Such men usually
fhink it fufficient to preserve their own morals,
witbojit troubling themfelveaabout the preservation
of those of their fellow citizens,
£t cannot be that those whose duty it is
to guatd the publicHnorzU, by executing the laws -
are ignorant of what is so generally known—Every
obligation, moral aird political, therefore calls upon
them to come foj ward, and atrell in its progtefs an
evil that threatens geueral contamination, extensive
private tnifery, and public infamy.

A correct edition of this work, printed underthe

To be happy in old Dire, it is neceflary that we
aeenfiom ourselves to objects that can accompany '
the mind all the way through life, and that we take
the red as good in their day. The mere man of'
pleasure is miferaWe in old age; and the meie
drudge in business is but little better: whereas, 11a- £
tural philosophy, mathematical and mechanical fci- j
enees, are a-continual fcurcc of tranquil pleasure, and S
i'i spite of tl e gloomy dogmas of pricits, and of
fupeiflition, tJie ftndw of thoie things is the ttudv
of the true theology ; it teaches man to know and "
to admire the Creator, for the principles of Icienc f
