GARKERIY-HIS PARZCHUTE-
AND THE DAILY ADVERTISER AND ORACLE!

•
To THE run etc.—lt is with much pain and re-
ltu!tance that I am obliged to obtrude myfelf—
even for a angle moment—upon the notice. of the
Public. When, however, a wanton aggrellion is
committed againfl an individual, it is the I.);etierotts
charaacrillic of the Britifli Nation to Ellen to the
vindication of the injured. Relying,- therefore,
upon the candour and liberality of that *Public
which I fo mach refpeß and diem), I fhall beg
lea're to offer ibme Remarks on a Letter figned
GARNERIN, as pnbliilied in the Morning Poll of
Monday. After watni.cring, with all the affetlta-
, tion (.phyfical learning, through the whole maze
of ,4 the Science of Parachutes," this wonder-working
Frenchman proceeds verbatim as follows :
" i think the reflections I have just made are important to
thefritece of Paraemres, and I confider my laft experiment as
the molt ufeful of any I have made, and as the one which will
render the a, t more perfed, though it was nut certainly the
molt agreeable onein vehicit I have been engaged.
4` All that is written upon a new fclence deferves to be re-
fated when it proceeds upon falfe calculations, or inaccurate data.
It is on this account that I ten compelled, not from a delire to
eritieife, nor from a fpirit of ilalignity, to complain of t7le in-
reurtcy of the twinning publi 7:led in Tit z 0 :tACL V of the 22d.
Tile dimenfions which the writergives to my Parachute are not
correct—nobody knows them but nlyflf, and they cannot he
procured but by fraud and :ender and means. I have my rea-
fons for not communicating them, an .1 no one will think it im-
proper that I referee to myfelf, for lonic time, the cxclufive
potlefficu of my property. This re•afonit,g, however, is from a
&Kul hand. Tu t Or. cct.r. has fornetimes reafoned en my
afeenfions in the molt filly and latizhable manner; every one
knows that it has made the verifying of the elevations, which
I afcertain from the fall of the mercury in the barometer, to
proceed frcm the fkilful maker in Piccadilly, who has Cutely
',ern a little mortified at Tut ORACLE'S hlVie& made him play
the part of a fwd. The gentlemin, however, has been reveng-
ed, by not difeovering to the writer, that the difference which
always exifts between his calculations and mine, proceeds only
from the difference between the Englifh and the French foot.
" The Editor of Tut ORACLE will not he offended at the
juftnefs of my reflections; he muft know, that in morals, as
in phyfics, the re-adtion is always equal to the action; he might
have expedled that his firft attacks, the continuance of fiis hof-
tilitics, and the innocent anecdote he has publifhed upon my
father's profeffion, my education, and the office I filled under the
Revoluticartry Government of the execrable RoREsPIERRE,
would be an'werect on the day on which the public should pro-
nounce their opinion. THE OR ACLI: mutt feel that the interview
before a 3.44giftrate, whom I refpea,cannot deprive me of a
legal juftifica7ion, and does not deltroy he menaces feet to me
in 'suiting by one of his writers, who was difappointed at my
refufal to participate in any manner in the puhlieation in Eng-
land of the tr aim] he had male of the account of my im

priformcnt a'mirg the enruic, of France, after the action of
Marchh nns, no•withftanding tie advantaiteau, tlfer he made
me, preferring, a, I do, the facritice of my interett to the re
viving of refentment,, which ought to be forgotten in the pre-
ral l'tace has been fo happily reftored, and which no
horelt man ought to attempt to triturb, particularly from in-
terceed motive,. The pet Lon to whom I allude ought to have
felt that it wa91).41 policy to publifh in the 0:1,1C LE a Fonda.
ou, anecdote, after having furnifLed me with a written proof
of It's hairnets.. If the mania of publithing famethi tig relative
to me had feized him, he ought to have done it with that delicacy
and candour, from whic:r a writer who rerpeets himfelf ought
never to depart. " GARNERIN.
I have thus given a fair and full Extras from
M. GARNEKINPS Letter; but before I attempt a
keview of its precious.contents, it may not, per-
haps, be amifs, for the fake of illuaration, to clafs
the whole under various heads. Firfl, then,as to

THE SERIOUS PART,
Which confitts of a direa charge againft The
Daily eldvertifer and Oracle—for M. GARNER'S
ought not to (peak of it by halves—refpe&ing an
inflance of moral turpitude, for which, if true, I
ought at once to be expelled from all Society.—
Attcr tome idle jargon about action and re-aetion,
-M. GARNERIN boldly infinttates, that I encourag-
ed a writer belonging to the Oracle to fend to him
feveral MENACING L:•TTERS. To this charge I
plead Not Guilty. Nay, I will farther maintain,
that I knew nothing of the letters in gut/lion ; that the
evrifer alluded to hes promifed me a vindication of his ron- •
dud to-morrow . that he never was commiffioned by me
to make any application to M. G4RNRRIN ; and that he
has no conneition whatever with the ORACLE. If this
potitive and unqualified negative be not fatisfac-
tory to M. GARNERIN and his friends, let him put
the qu'ettion in any other fhape, and I'll give him
a dire& and unequivocal anfwer. I am much
obliged by M. GARNER IN's reference to " the in-
terview before a Magistrate." He may well re-
member, that at that very intervi,:w,-after lillening
to my difavowal of any knowledge of the letters,
and after admitting the truth of my declaration,
he candidly and voluntarily acquitted The oracle
in there remarkable words—" No ; the Oracle NE-
vER fent any menaces to me!" If therefore, it be true,
as was at that time admitted, that The Orack! NE-
VER fent ANY MENACING LETTERS to M. GARNE-
RIN, then why now attempt to fix on it an oblo-
quy, which he himfell acknowledged was totally
groundlefs ? The Magilirate, his Son, and I, law
4nd examined the laid menacing letters, and they
neither mentioned the Oracle, nor rade the fmallg alluflon
to it. " 0 ! but (ftys M. GARNCRIN) the author
of the letters Rates that 'he was a writer in 7 he
Oracle. Admitting, for the fake of argument, the
truth of his being lo informed by the writer, M.
GARNERIN ought to know, that I am not refpon-
fible for the condut of any man who clinics to
make a particular affertion without my confent or
authority. But of what nature is the dreadful me-
nace, about which M. GARNERIV is pleafed to re-
quett the attention of the Public ? Was it a me-
nace to aliaffinate him ? No. Thank Gou, loch
diabolical aas are unknown in this country. Was
it a menace to extort money from him? No. The
vile reptiles who about twenty or thirty years ago
difgraced the Engin Preis are unknown in mo-
dern times. NEWSPAPERS art now under the con.
dua of men of a very different dcfcription, and,
without atfuming any perfonal arrogance, I may
affirm, that an Editor of a London Newfpaper is
as tmacious of his charader as M. GARNERIN, or
the proudeft Frenchman in the New Order of
Thing.. Then what was it ? Learn, Gentle '
Reader, that this terrible menace, which has totally
unnerved the gallant Aeronaut, and at which his
noble mind revolts as one of the moll infamous
:lets that ever difgraced men, was neither more
nor Iris than the atrocious menace to pub/o—in a
Pamplid—fuch materials, with no:es or comments,
refpeding the renowned GARNPRIZI as were in the
writer's polfeflion—ux LESS M. Garai ERIN himfell
would deign to lama him . with more authentic
Documents, for which, it feems; he loffered this
1,,i2t apniati dip nor la:i
_of t ;,e nrofas, I ! 1 _But

why thould T entleVour L 0 extc.rmate• Avutned
menace_—this/S:king outrage—this &mid violation
of every principle of moral obligation ? The au-
thor's own account of the affair will a7pear to-
morrow, figned and faationed by his name and
addrefs. I am, however, under great ob:igatiaw.
to M. GARNEvis fur his reference to an inter view
before a Magiarate for whom I have as great a re-
lpe& as M. Gaat:ERIN or any other man. That
worthy Magiarate is a Gentleman of finch inflex
ible integrity and honour, that, although I am
vrond of being ranked among
.his friends, he
would he the very lira to reprobate and abandon
me, if guilty of the charge now advanced by M.
GARNEAIN. The Roman virtue which charac-
terizes the conduct 0f Mr. BONO—he will 'pardon
me, I hope, for mentioning his name—will, I
know, always operate fo powerfully on his mind
as to prefer the faithful difeharge of his public
duty to any improper partiality for a friend,
however dear to him.

But what will the Reader think when he learns
that M. GARNERIN, who thtun attempts to traduce
my chara&er and that of the Oracle, is at this time
under fome obligations to me, which, on any other
occafion, I fhould have not thought worthy rd
notice. He will be convinced of the truth of my
affcrtion on the perufal of the following letters :
Dully Advertifer and Oracle Olfice,
33, Fleet-ftreet, Monday Morning.
Dear Sir—ln confequence of your very friendly reprefenta-
tions of M. GAR u I was apt to believe him aduated by
thole fentiments or liberality to which you attributed his ge-
neral conduct. What mutt therefore be"my furprize when I
find him huffily labouring through two columns of the /1//a-Ning
p,/7 of this day.tn violate that chareter and to corset-Ala thole
motives, which you fo handfomely nicntioned as defcriptive of
hie difpofition. It appears the more ftrangc and unaccountable,
when you know, that, at your particular and earnelt facita-
don, I have for fome days been aiding you in the arrangement
of a Plan for the effential improvement of his intereft. At-
tacked as I um in this wanton and fcurrilous manner, I beg
leave to decline any further interference in his behalf. I hop?,
however, that you'll pr'oceed in your laudable endeavours,. 4s
I have no hefitation to fay,that aman who has afforded fo math
public amufement dcfetves better encouragement.
• I am, Dear Sir,
DUNCAN GLASFURD, Efer. Your's, truly,
Richardfon's Hotel, Govent Garden. P. STUART.
