It may be enquired, zs Cong refs is about
to adjourn, what has been done, (after hear
6 months feflion,) to support the honour
of the American Flag ; the indemnifica
tion of the property of the merchants ; the
detention of our weftern posts; the relcafe
of our seamen in Algiers; the Indian war,
or any one great national oSjed. New
taxes to pay old debts; excise on our manu
fadures, and an attempt to introduce a land
tax, are the most prominent features of the
present long and expensive feflion. Dedull
the revenue laws, and the code would be re.
duced to the size of an Almanack.
To the above query a NeW-Hampfhire '
Correspondent answers, That Congress
have been employed, during a great pro
portion of the feflion, one part in originat
ing and urging measures calculated to
plunge the United States into an unnecefla
ry war with Great-Britain—and the other
in endeavouring to countered and defeat
them—and a tight match they had of it.
In this firUggle between cool confederate
palriotifm, which weighs before it deter
mines and calculates before it alls —and in
temperate, tho’ just, resentment, that would
have hazarded every thing to obtain im
mediate gratification, the important objeds
mentioned were fortunately left to the
wifdorn and vigilance of the Executive,
where they properly belong.

By the veflels lately arrived from New.

there are becoming highly interesting.
The genera] sentiment is running gradu

we are to believe their public resolutions,
and the toasts given at public meetings;
which we think rather a better criterion
to judge of the fentimenrsof any people,
than by anonymous publications.' The

with unusual applause, throughout the
