MR. FES»no,
I confefs I have been a good deal sur
prised to find in ibolt every circle where
the couverfatipn happened to turn upon
politics, that the people were generally
ignorant of our having exceeded our trea
ty with the French, in permitting the iale
of prizes in our ports —and they have
started with fui prize at the aflertiorf.
this is a proof how necessary it is that
government fhonld ufe«very means to en
lighten the citizens at such an important
teafon, and (hews the absolute necessity of
adopting fame plan of education for the
lower classes of the people, who are al
ways liable to be milled by designing
knaves. Let our public meetings (inch
as the state-house yard on Fuefaay last*)
and the gallery in thfe play-house, speak
more fully the claims of the people upou
this head, and even the gallery in congrefi
on a recent oceafion. The very existence
of a Republic depends upon the vii tue of
the people. Who would hot rejoice to
fee Congress occupied (if the constitution
has delegated to them the power) upon so
grand a work ? And if it h:;s not, f.ich
power might probably be obtained upon
a representation to the different States
from that body, who must have seen
eiough in this place, during their resi
dence this fellion, to convince them of the
neceflity of it. 'At a future opportunity
I promise to give you the outlines of a
plan which I have long contemplated,
if you will give it a corner in your paper ;
and I hope to live to fee Gongrefe enga
ged in prosecuting so neceiTary a mes*
iure.
To return to the fubjeft—The lan
guage of a great part of our citizens up
on the late proceedings of the Briufh,
runs thus, " They have fitft interrupted
our trade to France in the carriage of
such articles as were not decreed contra
band, contrary to the pra&ice of all for
mer wars—and now they have underta
ken to fay, that we (hall not trade at all
with the French Colonies, and have pirat
ically seized our veffcls without giving us
the lead notice of their intentions, <iiid
contrary to all former usage."
It is true, they have done all this, but
it is not equally true that they are wi.hout
a prccident for adopting new things. We
have set them the example ; for accord
ing to our own confeffion, we have (in
permitting the French to !ell their prizes)
done what is " unfounded in the practice
of France, or in that of any other nati
on" that is, we have done what never any
nation did before. The British have co
pied after us, and we are now at ifTue by
the forencfs we feel, when we fisd the
lame thing retaliated upon onrfelver; we
may make some calculations, what may
be the feelings of the British in their si
tuation. To be used ill is disagreeable,
but to have no notice of tb< approach of
ill usage is very grating to our feelings —
the scripture adage comes to our aid here,
•« Firlt pluck out the Beam that is in
i thine own eye, and then (halt thou fee
* I expected an invitation would have
been given by those gentlemen who exalt
ed themselves above their fellows, on
Tuesday evening, to any one who
might chufe it, to come forward and ob
jett to any of the resolutions, or throw
further light upon the business if they
thought proper; but they chose to keep
it all to themselves : no such offer or invi
tation was given—•this to be sure is for
the honor of free difcuflion, and worthy
of the men who could produce important
resolutions & call upon the multitude to a
dopt them at the fame inftant,indeed so rea
dy were they to adopt any thing, that I am
convinced if any one had been hardy e-t
nough to present himfelf to objeii to th*
proceedings, he would have been hooted
and called an Aristocrat, English Agent,
3cc. &c. if he had ifcaped without a bro
i ken head.
