tor that the plan of having onecourt heldat
Richmond and another at Frederick fburg,
which were not more than lcventy miles
apart, would place large portion of the
citizens at greater diRance from the {eats

advantages Of it.
1be/e 7vbe otte<ed the motiou obferyed,
that 1t became the government of the u
nited States to organize the judiciary in
tuch way as to indure an obedience to its
Laws; and to infure the faithful collection
OF revenue; that this lait object could only
be attained by the inRitution of federal
courts, not 10 remote from each other. as
to prevent the convenient attendance of
protectors, parties, witnenes, and Jurors
at the ieats OF the courts; that the reco-
very OF duties derived from this foupce could
only be made before the federal courts:
and If the places at which infraaions Of
the revenue laws took place were remote.
however ardent the patriotifm of the citi-
zens, they could not be expected to en-
counter the great expence and lois of time
that would be required in attending court
three or tour hundred miles dilfant: thar
the mott fold objection to an exteniion of
the courts was their expence; that in fact
the extenfion would probably be an econo-
mlcal arrangement as the facility Of re-
covering dues to the public would be in
created, and with it the produetiveneis of
the revenue; and comfortable fun would
be iaved IN the expences, betrayed by the
public, of grand jury, which from its
very nature mutt be drawn from all the
parts of each fate, by the contracted ize
OF the diftriet from which they were tax
en-; and that the fame remark would an
ply, in inaller degree, to common iu-
rors, witneiles, protectors, &c. that 70
tar from the ftatement made by gentlemen
being correct, it was underhood that fe-
veral TUFTS in which the public was inte-
refted, had been protraefed for feveral
terms; that the little buGnefs alledged to
have been brought before the federal court
OF Virginia, was the mott conclufye evil
dence of the inconvenience attending the
prefent plan, whereby, owing to the re-
mote fituation of the greater part of the CT
tlzens, they were induced to prefer an ap-
peal to the fate, in preferenen to the fede-
raj courts.

T. contrary, has a led throughout this
nea Sation W that franknefs and loyalty
which Can alor sniure that re-eitabliih
OF general trad Slility which his maieify
and his miniitry have 70 much at heart.
1t would be in vain to look for proofs Of
contrary intention in iome expreiions
contained in the official Communications
Of the French government to the allies Of
his majeey. More Especially if fuch proofs
were attempted to be drawn from one of
the laif letters written to Baron Thugut,
which the undersigned might have coulmu-
nicated himfelf, if he had found an oppor-
tunity that the French government, al
ways friend to peace, appeared to COM
plain of the intentions Of Great Britain on
~ becaule it had every reafon to believe
them contrary toa fold fyitem of paci6ca-
ton.
The undersigned has entered into theie
details only becaufe, OH the eve Of ncgoci-
ations which may be entered upon, it i, of
importance to the councils Of the two
powers to be reciprocally convinced of
the. hncerity of their intentions, and be-
caufe the opinion which they may have of
that iincerity is the only pledge for the
iucccis Of the negotiations.
With reipect to the fecond point in the
note which the undersigned has had the
honor ofreceiving, he is to refer to his let
ter Of the 10Th, in which he informed his
excellency lord Grenvillc that he was d.
re6ted to give satisfactory explanations re-
lative to the principal objections of the
Britlih government to the propoied arrnif-
tice, and entreated him, at the fame time.
to facilitate the means OF verbal comnuni-
cations with the miniRry. 1t was there
fore difficult to believe that the French go
vernment would adhere, without any mo.
diGcation, to It's overtures; for, in that
cafe, it would have been quite uielcis to 60
licit for aninterview, in order to give "a
tisfactory explanations.
Infpeaking Of the congratulations requi-
fife, in order to place the naval armifice
upon footing with the continental truce,
us maJeity's minlltIy think that there is
iome preponderance In the balance fettled
by the French government formal diff
cuaion upon this point would undoubtedly
be milplaced. After the various fucceiIes
of war which had produced 10 many ex-
traordinary events, it is difficult to doubt
of the moralinAuence of thoie events upon
armies, upon nations, upon governments
themielves, and the deductions which may
be drawn from it at preient, appears to
juRify the opinion which the undersigned
has felt it his duty to fate. If there be
any exaggeration in this opinion, it is Thar
ed with the enemies Of the republic them
ielves, who have employed every effort to
prolong the truce, and who have not fcru-
pied to ufe the means ofpretended negocia-
lions in order to gain time. The prelimi-
