Imtertant Fact*.
t
From ofticial documents now he
fore the public, the following tacts
are aft trained.
i hat tlie French have captured
and condemned a ihg , d;iven on
the Unites of France by the lirels of
weatner, and the perils of the
fea.
1 hat the Trench have burnt.our
fliips on the high teas, wiihout any
* ifence except that *,i belonging io
the Unfted btates.
That there are not lefs than one
hundred American ihips, belong
; ii:g to Citizens of the Umied butts,
in ihe poiicifiun of his imperialMa
jdly o« thole ot in# allies.
1 hat the King of Naples, the bro
ther m-iaw ana tool ol bonaparte,
has conhseated 29 American vclTris
in conformity to orders hon\ 1 aus,
and their proceed# arc to be itllpoied
of, according to the piealure of ins
Miijeity.
i hat Spain, Holland, and Italy,
under the like orders, are proceed
ing in the like manner
1 hat in Holland, an American
fliio conveying remittances Irom the
Ame:ican government, h*s been
captured anu detained by the French
— and all this while our maritime
rigii s aie guarded by the folcmmty
I
l ; 1
of a treaty, aj^i without any notice
tint this collie would be purfued
— nay wheif invited into their
ports
And when our miaifter rerronftratc't
agdi tit thefe proceedui-s and wifhes
for a deedive reply, he is told with
the utnaoft fang troi !, that, “ jor
fans days pay! nothing in the nature of
hkfinefs and unconnected with the mar
riage of the km pc rot could he Iran]ac
t'd ; and that Jor fane days to come the
Jime caufcs 'j delay would continue to
operated —and yet our government
retain at their Court, the Ambaflk
dor of this imperial lubber, and fuf
fer our Envoy to remain a witnefs to
tne p.under and imprifonment of his
fetlow citizens. While on the otiier
’.and, an ambaCidor of another pow
er has been difmiifed for an cxpnjjfai,
which has b en cohitrued into a
mark of difrelpett to our government
— and Congiefs hive been called up
on, to pledge themfelves to iupport
the Adminulration,in thus vindicat
ing the dignity of the nation.
i lie facts are now bdore the pub
iic. 1 hey do not depend upon the
