WILLIAM CHURCH,
LfKEIFISE FOR SALE OF
FOR SALE,
The Intelligencer adopt* the very lan
guage which has long been held In this and
other federal papers. Have we not all
along contended that a war with England
was the lowest price of French forbear
ance I That the demands of Prance would
increase with every aabrifice which w*
made, and that every humiliating act to
excite Napoleon's compassion and awaken
his sense of justice would only embolden
hi* audacity and furnish new pretext* for
continued outrage ? Have we n<x uniform
ly contended that a feeble end cowardly
administration have made sacrifices to
France incompatible with the rights and
honour of the nation ; that the embargo,
non-intercourse.and the exclusion <f Bri
tish armed veesels from our waters, were
successively Adopted to gratify France at
the *Xi>ense of England ? I*ong and uni
formly have we maintained this belief, and
as uniformly ba* it been protested against
by every democratick print In the union.
What now appear* to be the fact ? Let the
people decide in whose veracity, fidelity
and judgement they will more justly Con
fide. Let them read the confession of the
National Intelligencer" The only can- (
The confessions and speculations in the
government paper of Saturday, republish
ed in our paper of yeaterday, which no
doubt come from the pen of Mr. Madison,
have really staggered and perplexed the
understanding of and judi
cious men. It is feared there must be some
plot or scheme on foot, fruitful of mischief,
when the National Intelligencer is detect
ed in using federal arguments and em
bracing doctrines lately so hateful to de
mocracy. The change of language in the
Intelligencer forebodes the developement
of ooiue villainous contrivance at Washing
ton, or the disclosure of some more dread
ful disaster to tbe commercial world than
ha* yet been permitted to be revealed.—
Either another plot is laid to practise a
base deception upon the people, or some
alarming news 4* in reserve, which the
publick mind must be prepared to receive.
Let th* nation be on its guard, for when
the devil preaches gospel, Christianity is
in danger.

Here is * foil and frank confession that*

of the French tyrant which insatiable am

little reason to hope that the acknowledged. *'<
insolence and injustice of France will b*
reseutod. The mne yua non of Frwnr*
has long been known to one grwaemnent,
land as the insulting language of her Mfo*
isters, we were not to be first hfiriMf
upon that head by the publication «f tb*

The National Intelligencer place* the
folly of a war with England, and MrtMK&
ance with France, upon a strong ground.—
He says, ” trade with England wh all
know would be lost. I* it certain theiwa . - ‘R
should retain that of the coMfoeoc a* our , JH

is it not most lik*’f th at France would 1

and we only wish to ace oar government “I
act as it talks. Who in hia senseaggan I
doubt what would be the treatment ofthe fl
tyrant to this country after the declaration ‘I
