from Office He knows they did. The
Federalists attempted to commence
naval war, but the bcoph determined a.
gainst them, and elected them from Of
fee. This was a manifestation OF public
opinion a declaration by the bcoble
themselves against naval and offensive
warfare. Am | inconsistent, if | re-
nounce opinions-exploded by the people,
and acquiesce in their decision ?-But
how stands the account of errors with
the FARTER and his friends ? They Ell
ther misled the people on the subject Of
war, and procured them to eject the Fc.
deralists from Office without cause, or
they are now endeavouring to goad them
into a naval war contrary to their wei
fare and interest, and in direct contra
diction OF former principles.
But there is no inconsistency. We
have been invaded. Who will say we
have not been invaded, when our citi-
Gems have been murdered within our
own Jurisdiction by a national force :"
This is capital. 1t is in fact an admis-
sion that ii the attack on the Chesapeake
does not amount to invasion, then the
FARMER and his friends are not consist
cnt. What we have been invaded by
an attack upon the high seas We have
been invaded, but no hostile foot has
been set upon our shores N { have beer,
invaded by an enemy, whom we can on
ly find By traversing the ocean We
have been invaded. BY whom ? BY
what! Not by a land army, bat, gentle
reader, by the British frigatc Leopard:
and even she has not, Ike gun-boat No.

the government TO them individually. |
would require our foreign ministers and
consuls to point out to them, and assist
them in resorting to legal mode of re-
dress. The English claim no right to
impress native Americans. The officer
who does so, does it at his peril. He, is
like Gen. Wilkinson, liable to an action
for damages and to this action every
individual should resort under the pro-
lection Of the government. The FAR
NEa may think as he Pleases; but was
the case my own, should feel a perfect
confidence that a Westminster Jury
would give me ample remuneration.
Who gains by the carrying trade !?
The merchant, and the merchant alone.
The community at large have no inter-
est in i. Even the imPost duties are
drawn back. Nor is it of 2 durable ma
turc. 1t IS the " mushroom, the fungus
of war At the first dawn of general
peace it VIII be annihilated. The mer-
chants, if they felt the warm glow Of gc-
nuine patriotism, would not ask their
country TO wage war for this trade. That
patriotism which demands war In sup
port Of this trade, has been Justly dchn-
cd, " the hcroism Of truck and traffic
the public spirit Of sordid ayaricc.'
The FARMER does not understand the
doctrine of search. The right to search
for enemy's property, and TO sieZe it, if
found on board a neutral, is an acknOW-
lodged principle Of the law of nations.
