With this letter, a message was received, such as
was to be expefted, contair.ing an invitation, which
WAS accepted; an! Mr. P. informed Mr. V. N. he
should hear from him the next day, AS to future
tp trticulars.
This letter was delivered to General H. on the
win evening. and a very short conversation ensued
between him and Mr. P. who was to call on him
IMMO morning, for a further conference. When hs.
did en. General H. said he had not understood whe-
ther the message and answer were definitively con
eluded, or whether another Meeting was to take
place for .liat purpose, between Mr. P. and Mr. V.
N. Under the latter impression, and as the last
letter contained matter that naturally led to animad.
version, he gave Mr. P. a paper of remarks, in his
own hand writing. to be communicated to Mr. V.
N. if the state Al the affair rendered it proper.
In the forthee in•erview with Mr. V. N. that day,
after explaining the can•es that had induced Gen.
Hamilton to suppose that the state rt the affair did
not rendet it improper, he offered this paper to Mr.
V. N. hut he declined receiving it, alleging that
he considered the correspondence as closed, by the
acceptance of the menage that I delivered
Mr. P. informed Mr. V. N. of the inducements
Mentioned by General Hamilton in those remarks,
for the postponing the meeting, until the close of
the Circuit ; and, as this was uncertain, Mr. P. was
to let him knew when it would be convenient.
On Friday the 6th July, the Circuit being closed,
Mr. P. gave this information, and that Genetal
flamiltou would be ready at any time after the Sun.
day following. On Monday, the particulars were
arranged, and the public are b t too well acquainted
with the sad result.
The paper above alluded to i. as follows:
No Xi
Remarks on the letter of June :27, 11104.
Whether the observations on this letter he (le-
.igned merely to justify the result which is indicated
in the close ot the letter, or may be intended to
give an opening for rendering any tt.ing
which may have been deemed vague heretofore,
can only be
.; J.igeil of by the sequel. At any
rate, it appear-. to me necessary not to be un-
derstood. Mr. Pendletirn is therefore autho-
rised to say, that in the course of the present dis-
cussion, written or verbal, there has been no inten-
tion to avoid, defy, or insult, bat a I:ncert disposi-
tion to avoid e•tremities, if it coald be done with
propriety. With this view.. General H. had been
ready to enter into a (rank and free explanation
on tiny and every suhjeCt of a specific name ; but sot
to onswer a general and abstraft enquiry. embracing
a period too long for any accurate re:olleCtice, and
exposing him to unpleasant criticisms from, or nn-
pleasant discussions with, any and every person who
essay have understncd him in an unfavourable setts!.
This (admitting that he could answer in a manner
the most satisfactory to Colonel Burr) he should
deem inadmissible in principle and precedent, and
humiliating in prattice. I'o this, therefore, he can
never submit. Frequent allusion has been made to
slanders said to be in circulation. Whether they
be openly, or in whispers, they have a form and
shape, and might be specified.
If the alts rr.:n re alluded to in the close of the
letter be di finitively tendered, it must be accepted ;
:he time, place, and manner, to be afterwards regu-
lated. I should not think it right, in the midst of a

Circuit Coutt, to withdraw my services from those
who may have confided important interests To me
and expose them to the ernharrassmeut of reeking
other Counsel, who may not have time to be suffici-
ently instruaed in their cause. I shall also want a
little tune to make some arrangement respelling my
own affairs.

The following paper, in the hand writing of Gene.
ral Hamilton, was inclosed with his wilt, and some
other papers. in a packet addressed to one of his
executors, which woof course nut to have been de•
livered. hint in rase of the melancholy. event that
has happened. As it contains his motives and re.
Betftions upon the causes th.tt have led to this fatal
catastrophe, it is deemed proper to communicate it
to the public t

N. XII.
On nay txpen..d interview with Cokael Burr, I
think it proper to make some remarks explanatory
of my condua, motives, and views.
I aas certainly desirous of avoiding this inter.
view, for the most Cogent reasons.
I. My religious and moral principles are strongly
opposed to the practice of duelling r and it would
ever give me pain to be obliged to shed the hlood
of a fellow creature, in A private cotnbatt forbidden
by the laws.
2, My wife and children are extremely dear to
me, and my life is of the utmost importance to them,
in various views.

1. I feel a sense of obligation towards my credi-
tors, who, in case of accident to me, by the forced
sale of my pYopetty, may be in some degree suffer•
vs. I aid not think myself at liberty, as a man of
probity, lightly t expose them to this hazard.
4. I am conscious of no ill wi.l to Colonel Burr,
distinct from political opinions, which, as I trust,
have proceeded from pure and upright motives.
Lastly, I shall hazard much, ■ud can possibly
gain nothing by the issue of the interview.
But it was, as I conceive, Impossible for me to
avoid it.

Theta were intrionic difficulties in the thing, and
erlifkiel ernbarrassmernt, from the manner of pro-
ceeding on the part of Colonel Burr.
Intrinsic, becaitse it is not to be denirdt that thy
animadversions on the political principles, chateiler,
and views of Colonel Burr, have been extremely se=
vere; and: on different Occasions, I, in common
with many others, have Made very unfavourable
criticisms on particular instances of the priirate con-
duit of this Gentleman.
In proportion as these impressions were enter-
tained with sincerity, and uttered with motives and
for purposes, which mign appear to be commend-
able, would be the difficulty (until they could be re-
moved by evidence of their being erroneous) of ex-
planation or apology. The disavowal required of
me by Col. Burr, in a general and indefinite form,
was cut of my power, if it bad really been proper
for me to sunmit to be so questioned ; but I was
sincerely of opinion this could not be. and in this
opinion I was confirmed by that of a very mode-
rate and judicious friend whom I consulted. Be-
sides that, Colonel Burr appeared to assume, in the
first instance, a tone unnecessarily peremptory and
menacing, and, in the second, positively offensive.
Yet I wished, as far as might be praCticable, to
leave a dot open to accuoimodation. This, I
think, will lee inferred fr •m the written communi-
cations made by me arid my direition, and would
be confirmed by the conversations between Mr. Van
Ness and myself, which arose out of the subjeit.
I am not sure whether, under all the circumstances.
I did not go farther in the attempt to accommodate
thin a punitilious del caey will justify. If so, I
hope the motives I have stated will excuse me.
It is not my design, by what I have said, to affix
any odium on the conduit of Colonel Burr, in this
case—He doubtless has heard of animadversions of
mine which bore very hard upon him ; and it i 3
probable, that, as usual, they were accompanied
with some falsehood. He may have supposed him-
self under a necessity of ailing as he has done.
hope the grounds of hit proceeding have been such
as ought to satisfy his own conscience.
I trust, at the same time, that the world will do
me the justice to believe, that 1 have nut censured
him on light grounds, nor from unworthy induce-
ments. I certainly have had strong reasons for
what I may have said, though, it is possible, that, in
some particulars, I may have been influenced by
misconstruCtion or misinformation. It is also my
ardent wish, that I may have :wen more mistaken
than I think I have been; and that he, by the same
future conduit, may thew himself worthy of all
confidence and esteem, and prove an ornament and
ble sing to the country.
As well because it is possible that I mar have in-
jured Colonel Burr, hot-ever convinced myself that
my opinions and declarations have been well-found-
ed, as, from my general principles aed temper, in
►elation to similar affairs, I have resolved, if our
int( ,iew is condueted in the u,ual manner, and it
pleases Gerd to give me the opportunity, to rrs.ree
and thr,ar noey my first fire; and I heir ihnight
e7en of reset-yams, my second fire, and thus giving a
double opportunity for Colonel Burr to pause and
to reflea.

It it not, however, my intent;on to enter iwo
any explancti-ors on the gr.ottul. Apology from
principles, I hope, rather than pick, to out of the
question.

To those Who, with me, abhorring the praCtice of
duelling, may think that I ought, On no account,
to have added to the number of bad examples. I an.
snit, that my relative situation, as well in public as
private, enforcii,g all the conciderations which con-
stitute what men cif the wwld droorninate honours
imposed on nr.! (as 1 thought) a peculiar necessity
to decline the c.rll. The abilits to be in future use-
ad, whether in resisting mischief, or effeCting good
in those crises of our public affairs, which seem
likely to happen, wcurd probably be inseparable
from a conformity with public prejudice in this
i•.ttticular. A. H.

TILE BRITISH IrRESS•

LOX DON,
FRIDAY, AUCtST 17.

Enslaved as the French Press is, no other in-
formation can be obtained of the real internal situ-
ation of that country, and the public spirit or opi-
nion of its inhabitants, except from travellers or
private correspondence. These two superior sources
of Mgt alion and amusement, we eirbstrrcly possess.
l'he letter which we this dal, lay before our readers,
is of that description. Our correspondent, upon
whose veracity, as well as judgment, we can de.
pend, paints men and things as they are, widely
different from whit Bus sr s ire t's Gazetteers do
scribe them. " Foreigners," .says our correspondent,
a who enter France, with the prejudices they have
imbibed from reading our Journals, believe a
eoenter-revolutinn inevitable, from what they heat
and see every where in our public walks, is our
squares, in our theatres, and in our collet houses.
Never was the public opinion more unanimous in
censuring the measures of any former revolutiooary
government, than it is now, in condemning the late
one id BON APAISTL All parties, all classes of the
people have been the dupes of the revolution, and
accuse him as the sole cause; having, by his new
hereditary dignity, equally disappointed the ex
pedations of the royalists of the return of monarchy,
and the sch:mes and desires of the republicans to
establish a common wealth, founded upon equality
and the rights of man. These sentiments are not
encealed, or virispered about, but spoken aloud.
You may, perhaps, think th.tt this assertion con-
tradias known and undeniable tp is of the
slavery of our nation, and of the r; canny of its
ruler. Hat a relation of some late occurrences will
convince you that even the most oppres,:d slaves
are sometimes able to prescribe limits to the de-
spotism even of the greatest tyrant.

When the unjac.ifiable arrest and unnecessary
murder of the Duke of 17.N0n en were known, not
only all the adh.!:.ents of the BJURS Iws, but all lo-
vers of justice and humanity. as Well as abhorrers
of cruelty, shewed their dttestatinn of this bar-
barous aft by putting on mourning; which became
particularly fashionable among the fair see, of whom
some were imprisoned, and others exiled from Paris.
This d;d not prevent others from lamenting the fate
of Piens° nu, by wearing his miniature, suspended
in a crape ribband from the b. isom, nor to send
their cards of visit to MOSEAV, in the Temple, and
to salute and applaud him when before the tribunal ;
a conduit which produced new imprisonments or
banishments. After the execiition of Getman, and
his loyal companions, mourning rings, a la royal,
were worn publicly by both sexes f and hardly a
lady was seen who did not wear a fan if riled) as
they were called, upon which was painted an urn,
with small profiles of the Duke of Estimate, Pi-
c to 110, and Gl° saes. The urn itself made a per.
left profile of Louis XVIII. This excited again
the rage of Bon aelare, Whoa without distintlion of
pge or sex, crowded his prisons with new viCtims
of
his fury, or rather fear. This caused fresb com-
plaint/, and excited a kind of emulation who should
be foremost to prow*, the anger of the tyrant, and
experience its effeCts. It became more fashionable to
risk friends in prison, than to frequent the theatres;
and the Thuillery became slesetted, except by I; ,-
's sycophants. 'I his spirit of opposition and
disaffeetion alarmed Fot ens, who, in an audience
of the Corsicau,, convinced him of the danger of con-
tinuing these measures of terror, which would in-
crease, instead of dirn:nibhing, murmur and discon.
tent; whilst, if left unnoticed, they would, as all other
temporary sentiments and fashions, die away of

add. that Bosaeaats's public fendionarics have

troops have been sent to these cities. No; withstand.
ing all this, do not, however, suppose any change if
Government, nor even any insurredions apinit
Government, will take place, as long as the army
remains neutral or indifferent. Should a co'ti.
nental war break out, and our troops out Inert
with their former success, then some Fovea
may occur for loyalty to crush rebellion ; and
as the bayonets alone have ereeted and pre,..erved
the tyrant in power, so the bayonets alone can :r.•
nihilate the tyranny with the tyrant. The (Ay
hope for the restoration of a regular Governwat
older, peace, and tranquillity, remains s. ith :he con.
dun of the troops, who, though hea,Jed by bre:,
commanders, know them to want experience,
perhaps talents ;. and, thereture, have neither esteem
for, nor confidence, in their new leaders, who are
themselves in very critical sitemions, as the exampit
of Pichegru and Moreau, of Macdonald and Le-
courbe, haveconvinced them, that it is equally, anti
perhaps more dangerous to excite the jealousy of
their suspicious errant by gaining wi.toties. due
