FROM THE BOSTON GAZETTE.

Common SenJE agaigf Pacjfcu5-er
sold arguments to prove, that a
7var zvitb Great-Britain, zv9uid be
highly beneficial 10 our Country ! !
THE Britilh bireling, and old Iary,
Pacifcus, has underworld to prove,
that war with Grest-Britain, for
the claim he fets up to have her de.
ferters reltored, would not be juit on
our part, and that it would prove
Injurious 10 the United States
Now BE- rnvft Be 7ycak man indeed
who cannot reply satisfactorily to ali
which this Brityb Pdrtizan urges.
1T. AS to the queftion of right
Is it nor as plain as pike itaff, that
we, being in land of liberty, and
having efablilhed our independence,
ydLely for the PurPOfe Of giving an az
ylum to the perfecuted Of all nations,
have right to protect, encourage
and reward every rebel, traitor or
criminal, who fhall feek protection
in our happy land ?
Is it not equally clear, that we have
as much, or more right to all the
fubieas Of Great Britain, than (Ie
has What has DE done for them,
but to give them birth, clOthe, feed
and project them, and have they
not natxraI right, as foon as they
are of age to run away, Especially in
time of 7yar 1? Are they obliged to
fand and fight, or be aot at by the
enemy, when there is a kind, gener-
Gus nation like US, who open their
arms to receive them I? People may
talk about allegiance and treteffi5n5
being reciprocal. Nobody denies
this. SO they are, until the protea-
ed gets chance to run away. This
is the law Of nature, and natural
jufice. a man takes Pauper, from
the ftreets, naked, hungry dcftitute
He clothes; feeds and protects
him, and in return he takes his obi
cation to ferve him for one year, be-
ing only half the value of The gifts
As foon as he is comfortably clothed,
fed and nourifhed, he knocks his
benefa6tor down, and runs off. Is
not this natural and msra! equity.
Again-We are nela,a al nation,
making our fortunes BY peace and
neutrality. Great-Britain is a bell;-
gerent, y,Iy defending her exiitence,
her laws, government, religion, pro-
perty and lives. Can the baubles
for which fhe is fighting, be comPar-
ed to the Jacred interels for which
we are trading +? Are not neutral
rights hyperion to belligercnt, as
much as property is hyperion to exit
ence Have we not then an indu-
oi'able right, 10 coax, feduce and
Prote6, by force of arms, al her Jl6-
Jeff'' Especially thofe PR tsll97v5 in
Nffpai trvioe, who are engaged, paid
and Jge9rn to defend her exiRence,
sEsn At the peril Of their lives and
