Two of the Usurper's sisters were married to men who arose from nothing, and his brothers were united to women of their own rank in life, when they had little hope of rising to their present high, but precarious, situation, Yet the pride of the low-born Tyrant induces him to oppoee a union be. tween his brother Jets OM E, the most insignificant of his race, and a Lady, the offspring of a respedable raMily and an ornament to her sex. This eondua will convince the world that his mind is as despica- Ide' in what relates to the inferior concerns of life as it is atrocious in all matters that re. gard the order and happiness of mankind. The Tyrant hold; those States in which he has obtained an ascendancy in the utmast vassallage. His commands for excluding the fair Stranger from Portugal and Holland were implicitly obeyed. She was driven with alarm from both Countries, and was so much dejefled by this cruet 'and mean re. pulse, that she anxiously wished to return to her native shore. She was, however, encouraged to , pracced to the hospitable Coast of Britain, where distraes was never refused an asylum, and where fe. male worth is sure of an emulous protection amang all ranks of people. Nothing could escceed the anx. iety of the inhabitant* to see her when she landed at D)ver on Sunday last but the general zeal to chew her all possible reeve% Her ;terse' is fully adequate to all the favourable representations which have been made of it, Her figure is not above the middle size. There is a pe. cutter expression of interesting affability in her face, which is regular and animated, and the whole) of her deportment is marked by ease and elegance. If the French character for gallantry is not wh o lly eff ace d an d d o o l n,y , ed by the bloody ,cenes of the Revolution, and the mi,mible state of t hr i el t ir t m which the People of France are rrduc, o l by a Fa. reign Usurper, what must they thi'dc of such treat. ment of art amial:le female wlr. visited that C Angry in hopes of prutedion, entitled to that protedion by the holy ties of wedlock, as well as by the rights of ounce and the customs of every civilized Start I What a contrast does such belt iviour in one who leas obtruded 'himself into the s eat of Set. veteigniy present, coinvied with the manner's of the Court which they have destroyed, in order. t.S make way for an usurpation which is no less cha raßerieed by vulgarity than oppression. But what a contrast does it form with the treatment the ami. able Fugitive has found in this Country, which is proud to chew, that thought separated from America in political identity, it is still united to it by the ties of courtesy, affettion, and those civilities Which add a grace to comnercial intercourse, and sullen the pride of national independence.
