TO THE EDITOR OF TIIE SUN.
' •
SIR,
• • . Tins Rebel, it may be necessary to inform your
Readers, is a Gtneral of Division in the French,
Army, ind•hae lately published a Wiirk against
this Country, intitled, ,'t Etat aliael de la Grande--
Xretagiti." It contains, throughout, the most
false and malignant aspersions against that Goveine.
ment to whole merciful- lenity he owes his. life...,—
. At the same titneOt abounnl'i"_ with the most ful-
some panegyrics on that pernicious despotism, be-
neath whose auspices he has sought rroteetiori, aed
of which he is at once the. flatterer and the volun-
tary Slave. •••• .
The Work is divided into ten Chapters, each of
..which is employed to discredit the charadera and
to dispute the resources of Great Britain. It is
P upon the same plan as Tom PAINS'S Treatise on
the fall of our Finances, and if there be any shade
of distindinn, either in the general argument., or
the fallacies of the two, O'CONNOR'S is intitled to
the infam sos pre.eminence.
The first Chapter treats of " • the System, of
' ^Gteat Britain towards other Nations ;" the second,'
" of the. Instability of the System of Mercantile
Conquests' adopted by Great Britain ;" the third*
,44 of the Failure of the Benk of England',. and its
Consequences ;" the fourth, 4' of the System of
Corruption,. of the enormous Expense which it•oc.
casions, 'and of the Discontene which it excites';"
the filth, " of the Political Coeduti of England in
'nation to Ireland, illusireted by Ihe ljeeritations
.t the late Administration and their Predecessors;"
the sixth, "'of the Stability of the British System,
and how far other Nations ernes contribute to its
overthrow ;" the seventh, 4.4 how far the English
•
Government is. justified • in arrogating the Right'
of being the Champion of ' Europe ;" the eighth,
" what are the Foundations of she .Sieleieg
. -.. .
Fund ? by
Means of which, it is said, the Debts'ot Great Britain
:nay he. Liquidated ;" the ninth, ." that this•Sye.
tem, by distrading the natural cotirse of Hillis!)
Capital and Industry, is as injurious to the People
hi England as to other Natiens of Ealteoe ;" the
tenth, t 4 what was the Qbjett of the British Mi.
nisiry in involving England in the present War ial
Then follows a conclusion, or rhapsody, addiesscd
to the British Government,' replete with fury, ma.
bee, and hatted. - The spirit and principles of the
Work cannot he better demonstrated, than by ob.
!erving, that he has the assurance to assert, at the
',toy testers, he is actually in arms against the Con.
1 titution of this Countrso that " there is' not a.
•vnisn in the two Kingdoms entertains a greater- re-
*neat for the Principles of that Constitution than
himself,"
WHowever, as it is more,. than probable that a
ork of this descriptiot, may very soon be 'trans.
ferred to this or the Sister Island, and translated,-
fOr nhviovs purposes, I shall. take the liberty' of
analyiing its contents, in order. -to anticipate the
tnis'ehief it Might occasion by a general circulation
among those who may yet harbour.a disposition to
separate their interests and safety from those , of
lThe- Government of our Country. At present, 1 .
ive eeoni reason for believing, that the only Copy
of thi, lithel whith has yet reached this Country., is •
in 1/4' possession. . . . ' •
The first Chapter Orbs, as might naturally be
• :ItPeeted, with st hull, after the old manner of !
• Ire!and• It begins with a statoment of the 'Princi.:
Vas (ever hostile to the rightil 'of 'othei• Nations).
on which the power . and opulence of Great Britain
are futilitied, and then- proceeds in , the paragraph-
-1
funnediatrly following, with a declaration, that
these pi iociples ate fake, but are now more necem-
soery than ever to maintain bere. grandeur. If the
general malignity aimed against Great Britain were
pet self.evid'ent, I should have concluded, that in
11i:i 1:,•al to censure our system, he was intliredly
satirizing the Government of France. This -will
alipcar 'twee ftely in the sequel. The leading doc.
trine, however,- •of the Welk is, that England. haa
never beet at Peace :for a Century ; that every
' Peace ells hae• concluded was a mere Truce.; and '
• that Wit constitutes the elements of her' 'riches, and
•, is her sole etsource :Against . ruin. •If this be admit.
Jetl, it cannot be denied, that we have dont wisely
. in going to War. .
' After such 'a position, no one will be surprized; -
r that like every other man. in ,a passion, he. shOuld .
pay compliments to the plied of his antipathy.
'eke the following Extrad as a.specimen of. the
opinion which he endeavours to excite in his adopt.
e . ed Country,- of the power and opulence of the Bri.
''fish Empire: " An Island," says the Traitor,
" situated at the western eve/miry of Europe".
(he seems in have utterly-forgotten his native coon-
try), " with' a
_population of eleven millions, of
aouls,-affeCts to embrace within her ambitious pro.
teas, the other 'bpi parts of the world." (so that
England alone constitutes, according to' this pro:
fond politician; our fourth of „the world.) " With
one foot on the vast Continent' of America, amt. the
(Ither on the Banks of the Ganges, she condemns
Africkto eternal ignorance and slavetye in, order
that the produdisaiwol the Antilles may 'swell the
Lost of her Imports. She raises annually, by, a:rnixt
'Peal of commerce, exadion, plunder, and tribute,
a;Revenue of seventeen millions and, an .half altar.,
lung,. from the different nations which she -hat sub.
Jogated. She has monopolized all their. Ovulations,
and by selling. them at . excessive }slices to Other,
European nations, she •has made those slaves at sea
In° are free in their/own territOry, and compelled
them to share in that injustice which she exercises
ever those unfortunate regions bithere.she has eats.
, . • bushed her iron sceptre." .
-.- It is impossible to read the above passage with.
°I/I acknowledging, that in defiance of the virulent
”ilies Contained in it,
.the grandeur 'and wealth of
this Country could not have beenoslaced in a mote
ent elpy light'; for it virtually admits, that by pa.
.lour
italuitry, enterprizing zeal, and intrepid,va.
'•
- e4ll we have, with only eleven millioni -of beings,
..
tablished such an Empire as has never been petal-
, . .leled its the history of mankind. Of the-nature of
our d' • •
.d. minion, and the anedged injustice of our mode
exercising it, I shall have occasion to treat at
thrat
1 ge, atter I- have exposed the summitry of his
~ges against us • -
ate '
a.
• commences- the 'elucidation- of his
i •
' a short Narrativeh te Narrative of system
ta i
Cause of the Amerie t

tan War, which he ascribes to our lust for dotnioion
and wealth ; became from the moment that Acne.
rica produced a surplus in her ComMerce, we re.
Solved to monopolize it, and thereby-ll4that Coon.
try. Yet, iti,defiance of thiS statement, font its the
face of theory-that thi's Country .subsists only
by War, he asserts, in the very neXtpake, that
" the 'ComMerce we now Carry oil with America,
on principles of ersality," (which is a sinkularad.
mission, after having positively insisted_ that we
monopolize and sell every thing at exorbitant *prices)
'' is infinitely more luctatiVe than that to which
we•fatmerly compelled her when enslaved bi os."
However, without paying-ails, attention to the pa).
pable contradiaion into which he had fallen-, he
hastens to infer that thesominercial advantages
Europe has derived from the Independence of Arne..
rica, ought to inspire its re,peCtive Powers with a
just idea of thellosses '-they sustain, arid will con.
titiue to feel, while the East, and West Indies re.
main in, what he.terms, " mercantile chains."
The French are told in the next place, that Great
Britain gains no wisdom froni experience; and that
the enormous expense of maintaining so many dis.
tant pmsessions must eventually
.cause her ruio,
and as on evidence of the justice of-the remark, we
are favoured with the following most extraordinary
demonstration she has extended her system of
worcantild cOnqUest °Vet all Hindoostan, where, in
.the two proVincesjonly. of Bengal and Behar, she ex.
ercises the rights of sovereignty over thirty-two
millions of civilized men." This proposition makes
against his theosy : for, if we can retain within
Übeitier4, ands With ti comparatively T.mall military'
establishMent, .such an immense population of civi-
lized beings, triple the number of the population
the Metropolitan Country, it necessarily follows,
that our system of mercantile conquest must possess
some atiraCtiona, and that the footsteps of vidary
have been followed by mildness, justice, and tno.
dcration. But, '..these extensive conquests, con.
ciders as the cause of our 'having subj;:ed Euterpe
to heavy aid humill.ttingirotihens: -It would he
no difficult matter to spew, in answer .to this as.
prrion, that amidst a more general competition of
commercial interests amonot the European States,
in tl event of a free trade to India, that beautifid
p9ttion of the world would becoMe the theatre of
contention ; he eternally exposed to the: desolatilms,
of war ; and that from the inevitable interruption
which the peaceful pursuits of the naiives'would
dergo during such contests, the nations of Europe
would either not be supplied at all, or 'pay infinite.
ly more extravagant prices for. all their articles
than those which are now imposed by this Cotintry.
Our present system, , therefore, which he calls Ati-
ti.European and an exclusive monopoly,.' and to
which he ascribekall the losses, jnloUsies, expences,
wars, and effasion-of blood in Europe, has a direr
tendency to obviate all 'these evils; and before I
have concluded my observations upon this work,
I,May hasp occasion to shew, ,iu vbat manner our
commercial system aetually holds out the means for
facilitating the final emancipation of. Europe, and
for maintainiog in future, that equiponderance of
power among its several States, which, notwith-
standing the momentary alt ,ck it has sustained,must
return •to itS elementary principles. If we have
been more: fortunate in the acquisition of greater
means. than others; if our spirit of erverprize has
Been crowtted with more brilliant rewards, ought
they to be imouted to us as crimes? The Traitor
shotild have first ,hewn that we had, at any time,
refused. to succour the weaker against the stronger
Powers," hefore he, adverted to the possible abuse
which .the.enjoyment of such means might tempt us,
to commit.

without refieCting that by one of its specific articles,
encouragement is afFutded to every maritime State,
since each is allowed to import here its native pro.
duetions, provided the Owners, Captain, anti three.
fourths of the crew belong to the. Country whence
such produetions are brought. The restrictions we
enacted, were perfeCtly legitimate anti justifiable at
measures of public policy'; because every nation is
at liberty to adopt every method within its reach
(not eootrary to the Public,, Law) to promote its,
Welfare, and to extend its power. The first chapter
closes with an excursion against " our usurped
dominion of the seas ;" the best answer to which,
for the present, is, come and !Ll:reit it from
