that the English Minister* aro fighting

in the M.rnstry, an l that all is perfect
anarchy. Tae folly and absurdity of that
Cabinet are beyond description. 1 hey
have ieceatly occasioned the destruction of
from 2J*o 3d,090 men in the most horrible
coun ry in the worl I; rt would have been
just as well ta have thrown them into the
sea—so pestilential are the marshes of
Walctieren ! In Spain they have lost a
very considerable number of men. Gcner
a! Wellesley has had the extreme impru
dence to commit himse’.f in thi heart of
Spain with 30,090 men havingon his flanks
tiiree armies consisting of 90 battalions and
from 40 to 50 squadrons, whilst he had in
his front the army comm iruled by the K. ng,
which was of equal force—It i3 difficult to
conceive such an ac: of presumption. It re

to succled ihs late Ministry.

As the reader will psrcsjve, it is intended

of the Archduke Chafes, We fully admit

ideas of Frederick to the present admin

Tne American government is precisely
in that situation, *• wnere darkness is great,
“ where there is not so much us a beacon,
“ nor e^tn an ignis fa'.uus, to guide it on
“ the way.'* And this arises from the u i.
pareleledj/ state of me world, winc.i at
this moment exhibits new doctrines in pol
itics and war, new laws of dominion 6c trade,
and is distinguished by a depravity of prin
ciple and action, which sets all human vir
tue and foresignt at deli ince -and this
system, or ratnsr no system of things, is
tn.nnta.ned by such prodigious naval and
tniLtary force, that it is impossible for a
sirt$i? power, such as the United States,
to reduce the belligerents to a proper senss
of justice. Under these circumstances,
whilst almost every otner nation has been
overwhelmed with ruin, the United Staes,
guided by fepuiltCan councils, have pre
served the liberties and independence oi
the country. Yet the federal papers d> not
“ censure with indulgence.” O.i tue con

the opposition prints are more invetratc,
malignant, and vindictive.
