differences would arise which in their
fleets would prove highly injurious if
not fatal 10 the commercial interests Of
the United States. Mr.. Jefferson and
III the leaders of the democratic party
nave been the open s avowed enemies
of England, and the professed admirers
Of French liberty ard Corsican success.
If Mr.. Jefferson and his associates have
not SAID this in direct terms, the demo-
cratic papers, the organs Of The party
have been constantly proclaiming it for
them. Instead of adhearing to that
broad and impartial system which
ought to regulate the conduct ola neu-
trail government, it appears to have
been the disposition of the present adj
ministratien TO sucCumb to France and
10 90 10 war with Great Britain when,
if we examine the treatment we have
received from both powers, which has
been bad enough, TO be sure, we shall
find as much cause Of complaint against
the one as the other. But 1t always has
and always Will be the case that neutral
states must expect TO meet with some
interruptions from the belligerent pow
ers, particularly in their commercial
pursuits. have no idea of justlfying
the conduct Of the officers in the Brit
ish navy, in the impressment OF Amer
leans. If Great Britain should claim
the right, or make it general rule, it
would be a sufficient reason for going
to war. The government of England
have never Contended for the principle,
or justified the practice. Principally
from the circumstance of the English
language being spoken in common BY
the people Of both countries, impress
ments Of American citizens have taken
place but they have been readily civ
en- up when demanded, and proofs OF
their citizenship made. But this Is
not the great question now in dispute
between the Executive Of the Uni
ted States snd the English Ministry
The real point in contention, is, the
right which the English government
claim of taking their ciuzens from our
merchantmen. MIR. Jefferson contends
that the flag Of the United States shall
be a sufficient protection FOR ALL those
sailing under it. On this point the ne
gociation rests. The losses which the
United States have already experienced
in consequence of the present dispute,
and the suspension Of that friendly in
tcrcourse 50 essential to the interests of
this country, are immense.

Tenth Congress.

Tenth Congress.
This day is the time appointed for
the meeting Of the first session of the
tenth Congress. From the situation
Of our public affairs, it IS presumed a
quorum Of both houses will assemble
at the time appointed and the Presi-
dents message will probably be reCeiv-
cd in the course of next week.
That message and the papers which
will accompany ii we hope and expect,
says the CenHHei, will unfold every
thing in controversy not only with G..
Britain, but with France and Spain

that In the present distressed and alar-

people-who alone have the Constitu-
tional power to decide on PEACE or
WARS to suspect the President, If
not Of a traiterous design, at least of one
highly criminal against the best inter-
ests Of the American people and a
fragrant violation Of the confidence re-
posed in him. The times call loudly
for an ohen and nlagnanimous hoHcy-
+" The People" all parties-denlard
the display of this policy-They de-
mand to be made acquainted with the
real situation Of their affairs demand
hhe ruth, the 7Uh0le truth, and nothing
6Ht me truth," respecting it And
those who conceal the truth from them,
will not long enjoy their confidence.
They wish to know the truth, that if
WAR Is determined on BY +" their SER
UaHts," they may Judge whether it be
just and nrce8sary-For no other war
viii they support any longer than they
are consutuuonaliy obliged to- They
Will not continue war merely To est
ablish visionary theories, or new Laws
Of Nations, nor TO CRAFTY the ambition
or hatred Of any natiOn.-Ifa lust and
necessary War is unavoidable-and
their national HONOR and INDEPEND-
ENcE'be really at stake, the people wish
to know It, that they may in season
