EXTRACT OF A FRlvA'l's LETTER FRUIT BALTIMORE
oF THE 2i OF JULY.
He're, as 'every where theft
the
nited
States, there is an absolute schism between tile
French bt the Royalist Party, and thbse who ad-
here to Napoleon; they have even gone so far as
to fight several duels. With these parties the
Americans side, according as they are the friends
of either. The public papers that favour the one
or the other of these parties increase the efferves-
cence, and take no pains to allay the dissentious
among the foreigners.
.The liberty of the pi ess
is carried to an extreme in ,the United States, and
it is the papers that in some measure regulate the
sreps. of the Authorities, 'or at least point out to
then such or such a measure which it would ba
proper to Oopt. The American Papers are
the oracles of the people, and the .thermometer
of their passions. It seems that the Bu6na-
'partists are •in t ,is country superior both
in number. and boldness. They do not hesitate
to bestow upon their alvers:tries the most oppro-
brious epithets, who iu their turn. call them the
soi-distms. Many Americans execrate the tt bite
cockade as much as the King's enemies do, and
this animosity is carried so far that even children
are encouraged by their par,mts to run and hoot
• after those who wear it. While Cockades haS thus
become a term, of reproach in the mouths of chil-
dren ; he who wears this distinctive mark of roy-
alism, it he -should attempt to take refuge in a
house, would not he received,ltt.least by any de-
mocrat, and even a feileralist would hardly venture
upon an act of humanity to save front a mob of
children the person exposed.
A Frenchman, known as a Royalif, would not
dare to go with the white cockade to the suburbs
of the town Nvbere he resides, without being tin-
der continual apprehensions for his safety ; he
passes With fear a French coffee-house, where he
perceives a group at the door ; in R word, the ci-
tizens pt-France, whose religion is.not that of.his
common fellow countrymen, has nothing to hope •
front them in the United States ; he may "at his
ease vegetate and die there—it is an enemy less,
and' that- is all. The French Consuls themselves
data not display the mark which ought to make
their character respected, when it is the Royal
Government that they represent. But if they ad-
here to that of the Usurpei., the -tri,coloured
cockade is a passport to' such as resemble them ;
'they have no kind of correctional pollee to exer-
cise against tlfoseWhes, disturb the .peaceable
and.their jurisdiction haS no known eaten
hitherto, since the return: of the King in 1814.
The Consuls sent to the United States by Louis
XVIII. haying learned before they left France, the
return of Btionaparte, have not dared to make
.themselves officially known.
The white flag of the frigate that arrived at
Baltimore from Guadaloupe was changed for the
tri-coloured flag without any difficulty.. Thus then
when those in authority arc guilty of the first in-
fidelity to their Sovereign, the, conduct of the
people is pointed out to them, and rebellion is the
order of the day.
It remains to be seen what measures the King
of France will take to make his authority respect-
ed in America ; all will depend on the choice of
the Ambassador.
