both countrics.-He is decidedly Of
opinion, that war mutt take place
between the two countries that the
Spaniards are only waiting for Bona
parte to get little leifure, 70 that he
can turn his attention to this coun-
try, and then they will take pofef-
fion Of LouiGana that the Span
iards will enter into no negotiations
that will be binding upon them, but
will infuit, negotiate, and inlult, I'M
til Bonaparte is ready, and then him
and theSPaniards can have pretence
to declare war. The French in this
country are not, nor will they ever be
at ached to the American government.
They think it too weak and finfy,
indeed, it has that appearance here /;
they neither love nor relpect the gov
ernor, and he has not 6rmnels c
nough to enforce either. They II
was informed by this comnander)
have petitioned Bonaparte to take
them under his protection again ;
that they were and would at all
times be ready to join him; he an
fwered that their wifhes fhould be
fulfilled, 70 foon as Europe was quiet !;
that he would ftrictly comply with
every promife he had ever made to
them, &c"
