.—. O His ConfulAr Majelly ! ! !" His Confular Wetly is alfo told. " Glory feemed for him to have exhau Red all her gill:. —We hope this may prove pro- ♦➢DRESS PRESENTED BY THE SENATE IN ♦ HOOT TO phetic. THZ CHUM CONSUL. " Citizen Chief Conful—The Senate has examined with all the attention which the intereft of their country requires, the official papers communicated to it concerning the treaty of Amiens. In your refill once to the violation of that treaty, it has obferved reafon and juflice, and in the negotiations which took place by your orders, a love of peace. " England wifhes to grafp at the commerce of the whole world : it wifhes to cover the feas with its fleets, and to Rifle indußry even in the hofom of every state. The French Conful will not fuller the Englith dominion in the Mediterranean—he will affert the in. dependence of commerce, and the liberty of every (ea. He has revived manufa&ures in France by oppofing to the monopoly of England barriers fimi lar to thofe which the herfelf has for fo many years oppofed to the commerce of France. Such is the motive of the war which (he has dared to kindle up: the caufe which the CHIEF CONSUL defends is that of all nations. " Your moderation, Citizen CPIIeF CONSUL, has been fo great, that it had need of being proteCted by your glory; it has manifefted to all Frenchmen the religious attention which you pay to every thing in which they are intereßed ; it has doubled their con fidence, their gratitude, and their love; it hat dou bled their firength and their zeal to defend that na tional Majefly, the image of which it more and more loves to contemplate in the Confular Afqiely, and of which you are once more to be the avenger. When they read in the firft anfwers given nn your part to the boftile meffage of the KING of ENGLAND, there words equally noble and pacific—' Ihe CHIEF Cow aut. confiders it glorious on this occafion to be taken unawares,' they will, with one voice, exclaim, ' Three powerful guaranties are always ready in France—the love of the people towards the Chief of the State, the valour of the army, and the genius of the Cum Comm.!" ♦DDEESS OF THY TRIBUNATE TO THE CHIEF CONSUL, IT CITIZEN TROUVE, PRESIDENT. 1" Citizen CHIST CossuL—The Tribunate, in the fitting of the day before yeflerday, decreed, that it Mould go in a body to czprefs to Government the following fentilnents if The Tribunate, in virtue of the right given to it by the 23d article of the 3d title of the Conflitution, after examining the negotiation which has been car •itid On between the Republic and England; convin ced that the Government has done every thing to preferve peace that the honour of the French people could endure; that the Britifit Cabinet s however, in this negotiation, has employed nonfual forms, fall% allegatioLs, unjuit demands, and sea aas of lity ; that the peace allowed to France molt be pur chafed by the infraaion of a folemn Treaty, by injury towards its Allies--decrees, that the following fend rents may Ilte Conveyed to the Government by the Tribunate in a body.—The Tribunate wifhes that the Ina energetic mann . % rosy be immediately taken, to caufe to be refpeaed the faith of Treaties, and the dignity of the French people I '1 Citizen, CHII7 CONSUL, in conveying to you this with, agreeably to the fentiment of the whole Republic, the Tribunate will not repeat the apref lions of its admiration for the attitude you have fo long preferved. The Government has fltewn itfelf calm becaufe it felt itfelfjull—it remained paffive to provo cation,becaufe it was Rrong in its right and its loyalty. Nor will the Tribunate praife you for having rejefled every idea which would have degraded the national dignity ; you are the Firß Magiltrate of France, and honour to the French was always a religions duty.— But they come to thank you for having united to their devotion ; for having forefeen that their cou rage tootild correfpond to their energy ; for having thus proved, befoiehand, that if England enter• retried any hope of intelline divifions, it calumniated all the French citizens, and made a calculation as falfe as injurious. Never has any Power better de. snonlirated this truth, known in all ages I airily her klied %, Citizen CHIEF Consul, glory feemed for you to have exhaulled all her gifts; when fite opens to you a new fource, it gives us great pleatute to r,ceiee from you an affurance that the operations of war will not interrupt the cares of peace --of all the kinds of ibappinefs which your mind is invited to talk, that of haying withed, of having prepared, and of having !Reignited the happincfs of thirty millions of People, will always be to you the moil affeaing and molt va- luable of rewards." One of the Journals Rates, that the C H I at Cow stn. after returning anfwers to the Legillative Body, and the Tribunate. converted a long time with the Mem hers of shefe Bodies. It then proceeds to give the following as a part of this converfation : 6 , We are forced to snake war to repel an unjull aggreffion. We will snake it whit ...glory The (animists by which the grand bodies of the State are animated, and the fpontaneous snowmen, which COll. veys diem to the Goverament 'lag important oc eafion, area happy prefage. “ The juilice of our cat& is acknowledged even by our enemies, fine they have refuted to accept the andistin offered by the Emperor of Mafia, and the King of Pruffia, two Princes whole (pith of juflice is acknowledged by all Europe. 4 , The Eng Lib Government teems even to have been obliged to deceive the nation in the official com munication it has made. It has taken care tokeep back all thole papers which were of fuels a nature as to make known to the Englifh People the modera tion and condut of the French Government during the whole negotiation : .. Some of the notes which the Britiflt Ministers have publilhed, are mutilated in the moll important paffages. The remainder of the papers communicated to the Parliament contains an extra& from the difpatches of fome public or private agents. It belongs only to thefe agents to contradict or ac knowledge their reports, which can have no influ ence in debates fo important, lance their authentici. y is at leall as uncertain as their veracity. A part of the details which they contain are materially Caller and particularly in regard to the converfation (Un paid to have taken place between the CH ter Consul. and Lord WHITWORTH, in the private audience given to that Minifter. 1‘ The Englifh Government thinks that France is a Province of India, and that we have not the means of affigning our reafons, or of defending our jun rights againß an injuft aggreffion. Strange incon- gruity of a Government which has armed its nation by telling it that France n jibes to invade it ! We find among the papers publifhed by the Englifh Go. vernment, a letter of the Minifter TALL EvIAND to a Commiffioner of Foreign Relations. This is a mere circular form addrelFed to all the Commercial'Agents of the Republic. It is agreeable to the ufage etla blifhed in France fince the time ofCOLISRIRT, and the fame exills among moll of the Powers of Europe.— The whole nation knows whether our Commercial Agents in England are military men, as the Britifh Mini(lry affirm. Before there funaions were entrufled to them, they belonged for the moll part to the Coun cil of Prizes, or the Civil Adminiftrations. " If the Siva of ENGLAND is refolved to keep Great Britain in a Rate of war, till France acknow. ledge his right of executing or violating treaties at his pleafure, as well as the privilege of intuiting the French Government i official or private publica tions, without our being able to complain, the fate of mankind mull be pitied. We will certainly leave to our pofterity the French name, always honoured and fpotlefs. We will maintain our right to make fuch regulations among ourfelves as may be fuited to our public adminiaration, and fuch tarits in our cullom houfes as our commerce and our induftry may require. " Whatever circumflances may be, we (hall always allow England to fet the example in violent proceed. ings, contrary to the peace and independence of na tions ; and it will receive from us that example of moderation which alone can maintain focial order."
