internal affairs of 'France Ot was it done With design of discouraging those who mighi be, tempted to disturb the public tranquillity, by depriving them of all hope of support dr was it inteuded by it to give us to understand ; that it was only by refusing such support altogethei that we should acquire a cliaratler of sincerity in the desire of Peace ?. These conditional eulogium; bestowed on our Ad ministration are followed by threats of the same 44 If however the British Administration should not justify the hopes.f . Europe it via be trec ssaty that the Allies should seek for Peace in it will be necessary to conquer To this language, which we have so often read for these eight years past, and which is purely Repub lican, we shall only reply, that vietory is not always to be found where it is sought, and that men do not conquer when they twill, but when they cau. We have taught our Enemy this by sea more than once in the course of the present War, and we should re_ plat this lesson by land should they have the temerity to invade our shores. ' 4 .` England has during eiz . ,ht _years been seconded by tuo Coalitions : in 'ten years, a third frvill n)t be l'en." Nothing would lead :us more to believe that a third would- be Seen in much, less time, than afFeetation of this negative predidion ; and we think that if this fear did not at ,the present. Mo. Meat influence the French Government, weihmild not for theirst time during so many years have toobserve the uroderaliott of their Official Journal towards us, Whatever gratitude we OWe it in this respeit, we are still more obliged to it for certain information which Ott gives, and Certain faets_which it admits. The Allies have rte longer any Commerce, no small Far. 'dries, in short, nothing ohm. ' England has gained .41 ")' thiNp and ',reads herself ever) ;where, has g's blithe:oe Cnaststeree s . and ivcry thing to lose." We cannot but feel aitenished, that he who has stated these great truths has not added, that those who were Unable to delindany thing, may not probably be able to gain any thing, and that those who have eonquer. ed may probably have strength enough to preserve. Nor can we help remarking, that the word Allies is constantly employed for the first time in. this piece, instead of France. Is this done in order to remind in that we have lost some of ours ? The moment is certainly not well chosen for this purpose. Is it done to terrify us with the idea that we have France, Spain, Holland, and Liguria against us ? Over all these we hive triumphed, and we could again triumph. To draw to a conclusion, however, the Writer in the "lin/item, exclaims Happy - those Nations nA:ho, 4,2 ving audited , a high degree of prosperiy, are ilessed zuitli u 4-wise Government, (who do not expose suchgreatadvantages to the , vicisritudesmuhieha single Llouw of fortutte may s , odstee ~common. place political morality', is . too trivial to deserve any observation, except as to the sentence which concludes it. In the relative situation of England and of France, the only hloqi) of fortune by which our advantages could be endangered,. would 'be a battle foUght,in 'our, Island after a, disembarkation Laving been effefted. This, therefore; is an indireet method taken by the Author to threaten us with Invasion,. recollecting that he had three days before said, " ail: it was by the English Papers that Jibe) , learnt in France . the Preparations' there making for an . lnvailon."— 'ihsY would no doubt be very_ well satisfied Pa r i s, that we should remain - in ignorance and false sem titr on this head, 'but they may rest assured, that 'Or vigilance and =precautions will alwaYs.bear. Proportion to what circumstances require. • On the whole, it may be asked, to what are we to attribtite the-two singular predations lately pub. jishad in the Official Journal, before so silent on the -"hien of Negotiations ? We shall candidly state all WO think on this head. BONAPARTE, Seeing that his poiVer over the public mind begins to' be 'Wekened on the Continent; and foreseeing that it will ere long become still otore weak, has not choseo to wait till affairs reach that point in order to con. ,chide or to break off' NegotiatiOns which have been beguh I that he has consequently endehvourecito die. Play a great Apporance Of moderation to the People of France, anti our . ottin oountry, , flattering . himsellthat of two things one will happen _ C otner that he shall . thus determine our Administration to make a. Trea. ty without waiting till they have combined their Atrairs with those of the great Powers. of the Continent, or that he shall be. able to. throw, the odium of prolonging the War on them; if this spe cies of public Overture would not be. followed by a p . eace,—We know not whether our Ministers h - ave east their eyes on this production in the Malliteur, but • all events they are in possession of better means of judging of the dispositions of the ;F:rench Government, anti they have given sufficient proofs feat we may safely rely on their wisdom, their in.. rmation, and their talents. EVerk one will how. evct conclude . . that the more .the French Govern- b ent erh_ea vouW re re " rs to burry,our ori, - Elon ought the latter to emplorin its meawrei. ~f Too hasty it Puce, would not be Peace: that y will deserve the name in which not only the aired but the impliated interest of the two Countiies shall have been maturely and leisurily co-malted. ltt onl • The -Hamburg!)
