TIORT*LII. OFFICJILL DOCUMENTS, ACCOMpANTING TM*
SIDENT'S MESSAME.•
(Continued from our Paper of yesterday.)
No. IV.
Windsor, Vermont, February 19, 1809'
'P Sia—My last (No. S.) was written at Burlington, the prin-
cipal town in the northern pan of the State of Vermont. lam
now at the principal town in the eastern section.
e. The faUacy of men's opinions when they act under the in-
lusnce of sensibility, and are strongly excited by those hors
which always animate a rising party, led me to doubt the cow.
redness of the oyinions which I received in the porthern section
of this State ; which, from its contiguity to Canada, and neces-
eary.intercourse with Montreal, has a stronger interest in pro-
Noting a gs.od understanding with his Majesty's government.
Therefore. since my departure from Burlington, I have sought
every favour able occasion of conversing with the pemocrats ort
the probable result of the policy adopted by the general Govern,
merit. Ihe difference of opinion is thus expressed : -
P The Federal party declare, that, in the event of\p war, the
State of Vermont will treat separately for itself with Great En.
Cain; and support to the utmost the stipulations into wblcb k
may enter, without aux.-regard to the policy of the general Ge-
vernmera. The Democrats, onsthe other hand,Nassert, that in
wet) a case as that contemplated, the People would be nearly
divided into equal numbers; one of which would support eke
Government, if it could be done without involving the People
in a civil war, but at all events would risk every thing in prefe-
• rence to a coalition with Great Britain. This difference of opi-
nion is not to be wholly ascribed to the injudices of party. The
people in the eastern section of Vermont are not operated upon
by the same hopes and fears as those pn the borders of the Bri-
tish Colony. I hese are not dependent upon Montreal for the
sale of their produce, aor the supply of foreign commodities.
They are not spprehensive of any sirious dangers or inconveni-
ence from a state of war; and although they admit that the Go-
vernor, Council, anti' three-fourths of the Representation in
Congress are of the Federal Party, yet they do not believe that
the State would stand alone and resist the National Government.
They do not, loweier, deny, that should the State of Vermont
continue to be represented as it is at present, it would, in all
probability, unite with the mighboining States in any serious
plan of resistance to a war, which it might seem expedient to
adopt: This, I think, is the safer opinion for you to rely on ; if,
;indeed, reliance ought to be placed on any measure depending
on the will of the rabble, which is ever changing, and must ever
be marked with ignorance, caprice, and inconstancy. As the
crisis approache., the difficulty of deciding upon an hazardous
.alternative will Manse ; and unfortunately, there is not in Ver-
, mom any man of commanding talents, capable of attracting
general confidence : of infusing into the People his own spirit;
and, amidst the confusion of conflicting opinicns, danger and
commotion, competent to lead. in the path of duty or safety.—

" SIR —A Gentleman going direct to Canada, affords a safe
and favourable oppormnity of giving you some further account
of my progress. I will not make use of the post-offices, when I.
can avoid it; because private occasions supercede the neCessity of
. twritipg in cypher; and the contempt of decency and principle;
wbtch forms part of the morals of the subaltern officers of a de-
roccracy, would incline them tp break a seal with the same in-
difference, that they break their words, when either curiosity or
interest is to be indulged.
have not had sufficient time nor evidence, tp enable me to
form any opinion for myself of the lengths to which the Federal'.
Party will carry their opposition to the National Government in
the event of a war. Much may be Ipftrred from the result of
the ejections of Coveraors;which wstbin two mohths will be I
made in the States of Massachusetts,. New Hampshire, and
Rhode Island. From all I know, and all I can learn of the Ce-
tera Governinent, I am not apprehensive of an' immediate war.
The Frnbargo is the favourite measure; and it is probable that
eerier Means will be employed to excite England to commit.seme
• act of hostility, for the sole purrpie of placing the responsibility
orwar on that Country ; this I most particularly recommend to
the censideration of Ministers. The dread of-opposition, and of
the lass pf popularity, will certainly keep the ruling party at
Virasbingtott inactive. 1 bey will risk any thing but the loss of
power; apd tkey are well' aware that their power would pass
away whit the first calamity which their measures might bring
ppon the common People (from whom that power emanates),
tiniest indeed they could find a sufficient excuse in the conduct of
Great Britain. This itupresiion cannot be too'deeply felt Cy his
Majesty's Ministers: nor too widely spread thmoghout the
Bri4sh Nation. It will furnish a sure guide in every policy that
*ay be adopted towards the United States.

in this, the party attached to France should calculate with cor-
rectness, and the comer of New England would greatly
suffer—the merchants b4tig injured fad discouraged, would not
only acquiesce in the restrictive Systems, but even submit to war.
On the other band, should the small traffic permitted by a Nom!
intercourse Lawbe luceetive and uninterrupted, the People would
be ciamorous for more, and soon compel the Government to re-
store the friendly relations between the two countries.
" While I offer my opinion upon this subject, I cannot express
Out a strong hope that if any terms should be proposed by either
Government, to which' tbe other might think proper to accede,
that a principal motive to the adjustment of differences should be I
understood to arise from the amicable disposition of the Easterna
States, particularly of the State •f Massachusetts. This, as it
would increase the pppularity of the Mends of Great Britain,
con)d not fail to promote her interests. If it could not be done
formally and officially, nor in a correspondence between Minis-
ters, still, perhaps, the administration in the Parliament of Great
Britain might take that ground, and the suggestion would find it;
way into the papers both in England and America.
Although I have frequently repeated, that th 4 country cam
pot be goierned and directed by a versatility of opinion ; as there
is nothing. permanent In Its political institutions, nor are the peo-

Sta-1 halve now ascertained with as much accuracy as pos-
sible, 'the course intended to be pursued by the party in Massa-
&wefts, that is opposed to the measures aid politics of the Ad-
minlstratiop of the generairlovernment.
" I have already given a decided opinion that a declaration of
war. ii not to be expected ; Irincontrary to all reason abl ecalculation,
1 should the Cottgrees possess spirit and independence enough to
place their popularity in jeopardy, by se strong a measure, the
Legislature of Massachusetts will give thestone to the neighbour-
ing States—will declare itself permanent, until a new election of
Members—lnvite a Congress, to be composed of delegates. from
the Federal States, and erect a separate Government, for their
common defence apd common interest.
" This.Congtess would probably begin by abrogating the of-
fensive laws, and adopting a plan kir the maintenance of the
power and authority thus assumed. They would, by such an
act, be in a condition to make or receive proposals from Great
Britain; and 1 shotild seize the first moment to open a coirespon-
dence with your Excellency. Scarce any other aid would be ne-
cessary; and perhaps none required, than a few vessels of war
from the Halifax station, to protect the ntaritime towns from
the little navy which is at the • disposal of the National Govern-
ment. What permanent connection between Great Britain and
this section of the Republic would grow out of a civil commo-
tion, such as Might be expected, no person is prepared to de-
scribe; bnt it seems that a strict alliance must result of necessity.
At present the opposition party confine their calculations merely
to resistance; and I can assure you that at this moment they do
not freely entertain die project of .withdrawing the Eastern States
from the Union, finding it a very unpopular topic; althoujh a
course of eventl,- such as I have already mentioned, would ine-
vitably produce an incurable abenation of the New England from
the Southern States. '1 ha truth is, the common people have so
long regarded the Constitution of the United States with com-
placency, that they are now only disposed hi this quarter to treat,
it like a truant mistress, whom they would for a time.put away
on a separate maintenance, but, without farther and greater pro-
vocation. would not absolutely repudiate.
". It will soon be known in what situation public affairs are to
remain until the meeting of the new Congress in May, at which
time also this Legislature will again assemble. The two months
that intervene will be a period of much anxiety.
" In all I have written, I have been careful not to make any
impression analogous to e enthusiastic confidence entertained
by the opposition, nor to the hopes and expectations thatanimate
the friends of an ;lliance between the Northern States and Great
Britain. I have abstracted myself from all the sympathies these
ire calculated to inspire : because, notwithstanding that I feel the
Utmost confidence in the integrity of intention of the leading
characters to this political drama, I cannot forget that they derive
their power from a giddy inconstant multitude ; who, unless In
the instance ender consideration they form an exception to all
general rules and experience, will'act inconsistently and absurdly.

" —in my letter No. 6, I took the liberty to express my
opinion of the probable effect of the Non-Intercourse Law, in-
tended to be enacted ; and of the mode by which Great Britain
may defeat the great ietention of the American Government in
pass;ng it. But as the sort at impunity recommended, might, in
its application lo every species of commerce that would be can
on, be deemed by Great Britain a greater evtl than war it-
self, a middle course might easily be. adopted, which would
j depe ive France of the benefit resulting from au intercourse with
America, without, In any great degree, irritating the Maritime
States.—The high of all American produce in Fr.ince, fur.
nishese temptation which mercantile avarice will be unable to
resist.. The consequence is obvious. But if, instead of condemning
the vessels and cargoes which may be arrested in pursuing this
prohibited commerce, they should be compelled to go lute a Bri-
tish port, and there permitted to sell them, I think the friends of
England in these States, would not utter a complaint. Indeed, I
have no doubt that if, in the prosecution of a lawful voyage, the
British cruizers stould treat American ships in this manner, their
owners would, in the present state of the European markets,
think themselves very fortunate, as it would save them the
trouble and expense of landing them in a neutral port, and from
thence reshipping them to England, now tke best market in Et:-
rope for the produce of this country. The Government of the
United States would probably complain, and Bonaparte become
peremptory; but even that would only tend to render the oppo-
sition in the Northern States more resolute, and accelerate the
dissolution of the confederacy. The generosity and justice of
Great Britain would be extolled, anti the commercial States
exult in the success of individualspver a Government inimical to
commerce, and to whose measures they can do lot4er submit
with patient acquiescence.

" Sta•-•-You will perceive frost the accounts that will reach
youan the public papers both from Washington and Mauacha-
setts, that.* Federalists of the Northern States have succeeded
in making the Congress believe, that with such an opposition as
they would make to the general Government, a War must be
confined to their own territory, and might be even too much fur
that Government to sustain. The consequence is, that after all
the parade and menaces with which the oession commenced, it
has been suffered to end without tarrying into effect any ol- the
plans of the Administration, except the interdiction of conuner-
, cial intercourse with England and France—an event that was an-
ticipated in my former letters.
" Under what new circumstances the Congress will meet In
May, will depend on the state elections and the changes that
may in the mean time take place in Europe. With regard to
t.reat Britain, she can scarce mistake her true policy in relation
to America. If peace be the fiat object, every act which can
irritate the maritime States ought to be avoided; because the
prevailing disposition of these will generally be illiiiClCK to keep
the Government from hazarding any hostile measure. if a war
between America and France be a grand desideratum, something
more must be done ; an Indulgent conciliatory policy must be
adopted, which will leave the Democrats without a pretext for
hostilities; and Bonaparte‘whose passions are too hot for delay,
Win probably compel this 'Government to decide whether of the
two great Belligerents is to be its enemy. To bring about a se-
paration of the Stites, under distinct and independent Govern-
ments, iian'affaleof more uncertainty; and, however desirable,
cannot be effected but lif a sales of acts, and long continued po-
l.ty, tending-to irritate The Southern, and conciliate the Northern
i people. labsrformer are agricultural, 'the latter a commercial
.people. The mode of cherishing and deprnsing either, is too
obvious to r. quire illustration. 'i his, lam aware, is an object of
much interest it. Great Britain, as it would fur ever secure the
integrity of his Majesty's possessions on this Continent, and
/;take the two Governments, or whatever number the present
confederacy might form into, is useful and as much subject to
the influence•ot Great Britain, as her colonies can be rendered.

but against the consent of the other party, van alone produce a
sudden separation of any secdpn of ibis country !root the cop-
mon head.
" At all events, It cannot be necessity to the preservation
prate, that Great Britain should make any great concession at
present moment; more especially u the More important changes
that occur In Europe might tender it inconvenient for her to ad-
here to any stipulations in favour of neutral madding nations.
" Although the non-intercourse law affords but a very partial
relief to the people of this country from the evils of that entire
suspension of commerce to which-they have reluctantly submitted
for saint time past, I lament the repeal of the embargo; because
was calculated to accelerate the progress of these states to.

I iltougbt Worthy of a communiearion.
* Ibe last weeks of this month, and the first of April will be
.occupied in the election of gpvernors and other executive offices
in the New England States.
" The Federal candidate in blew-Hampshire is already elected
by 4 majority of about 1000 votes. Ills cqmpet icor was a man of
large fortune, extensive connections and ittoffensiye thinners.
These account for the smallness of the majority.
" In Connecticut.no change is necessary, and none is to be ap..
pretended.
if In Rhode-Island, it is of no consequence of what party the
governor Is a member, as hashas neither civil noriniktart powers,
being merely president of the council.
" In Maaachussetts, it is certain that the Federal eanedate
will succeed.

" A-few weeks will be sufficient in order to determine the
relative strength of parties, and could:ice Mr. Madison that a war
with Great Britain Is not a measure upon which ke dare venture.
Since the plan of an organized opposition to the projects of Mr.
ieftersoc was put into operation the whole of the New-England
States have transferred their political power to his political ene-
mies,—and the reason that he has still so many adherents is, that
those who consider the only true policy of America to consist in
the cultivation of peace, have still great confidence, that nothing
can force him (or his successor, who acts up tq his systeit, or
rather is governed by it) to consent to war. They consider all
the menaces, and " sices.dful note of preparption," to be a mere
figeose, intrnded only to obtain concessions from England oa
cheap trews. From every sort%f evidence, I confess lam myself
of the same opinion—and am fully persuaded, that the farce,
which has been acting at Washington, will terminate in a full.
proof of the imbecility and spiritless temper of the actors. A
war, attempted without the concurrence of both parties, and the I
general consent of the Northern States, which constitute the bone
and muscle of the country, must commence without hope, and
end in disgrace. It should, therefore, be the peculiar care of
Great Britain to foster divisions between the North and South
and, by succeeding in this, sbe may cure into effect her own
projects in Europe, with a total disregard of the resentment of
