AUGUST 30. 9 Roman Emperor once judged of the cowardice of his enemies by the cruelty they had exercifed againft a part of his army. which had fallen into an ambu(h ; and concluded he might attack them with ruccees. One might in like manner judge of the fright which reigns at London by the bluftering and hec toring winch certain Eriglilh Journals exhibit. Like thofe cowards who ling to dittraa themfelves in the niidtt of a dark night, they aired to brave the dangers of a rupture of the negociatinns, that, in cafe it lhould lmtppen, the people may not be too much frightened a it.

We !hall, however, take the liberty of ex puffing to them the doubt we entertain, whether a coalition, direeed by France, would be attended with as fad faults as the coalitions direfled by England. Be it as it may, we do not !hare the opinion of the lournalifts of London upon the aid which lonic refit triumph: of their navy would produce. it is not upon any point of the ocean that the grand conteit fubfilling between France and England can be hence• forth decided.
