ln examining Mr. Erskiuc's agreement
we accordingiv find : language adopted by
our cahinrt which breathcs the spirit of de

are. \
When parties suppose they are about to
settle their diﬀerence-s, it is common and it
I is nat 'al to atlopt a language of concilia
' tion. In this case we lind no courtesysshut
l a spirit of reproof. (ireat-Britain had cott
tended, that it was qyr duty, to repel the
aggressions of France, and she had mani
sested a disposition uniformly to withdraw
her orders in council whenever we should
talte any eﬀectual steps to vindicatc our
ss own rights against France. in the vindiea
tion of which she herself had adirect inter
est—For her orders in council were no—
' thing more than retaliating upon her ene
ss my that injustice which neutrals (the only
, one of which remaining was America) per
, mitted France to inflict upon her. throng/t
? their stag .
As soon then as Great Britain sound we
were disposed to resist the decrees of
France. she was ready to withdraw her
( orders in council, inasmuch as our laws, if
* duly enlorced, would superced: the neces
l sity of her blockadc. 4
! Upon this basis Mr. Ersltine's arrange
T ment is prosessedly sounded ; but although
?. this was the only ground upon which Great
s Britnin could with any honor as it rest ect
ss ed her enemy withdraw her orders in coun
cil, yet our ministers inserted in this pre
tefzsledqﬀu-tcd pacific arrangement, a clause
which took away from Great Britain the
only salvo to her pride— the only apology
for her honor. They declared that the act
prohibiting intercourse with France did
not " proceed from any dispOsition to pro
duce an ess unlity between the two nations,
but arose From separate and distinct ('t-usi
deratians." in other words, lest you should
pr-sume that we were actuated by : sense
of justice to you or by your remonstrances
on that subject,- we declare we had no in n
tention to do too justice, and your ac
knowledgement and repeal we choose to
have amid-red as a pure concessionxto us
- and to our soreible and energetic measures.
' A still more assrontive clause was added
'to the accepsance of satisfaction for the
Chesaptake. .
The government of the Uoited States
did accept, as a full and complete satisfac
_ tion, the terms which (:. Britainn oﬀered.
lt peace had been the. object it should have
been received with good will. but" in lieu of
(this, our minister told Mr. Erskine, aster'
sgreeing to the term, " that it would have
been more for the honor of his Britannic

yAdmit the fact thus oﬀeosiveiy alledged—
if youchooae: Admit' it was disreputablc
in his Britannic majesty not to punish ad

of satisfaction wit/tout it-and if a good
