these papers) they announce officially two
important battles, which took place on the

great obstinacy, Courage and ntrepidity by
both armies, and terminating in the com
plete defeat of the French, who lost 1000
men killed, amongst whom was Gen CODE t.

THAT spirit of ennity towards Eng
land and Of devotion to France, which has
long animated the rulers of the United
States, which they have successfully labour-
ed to transfuse into the bosoms of the pec-
pie, and by which the non-intercourse law
was dictated, did not exhaust itself in that
favourite measure. 1t continued to mani
fest itselfin our councils, and its influence
Was consequently felt in the negotiations
Between the two countries
The personal attachment Of our late min
lister at London, to the President OF the u
nited States, is of public notoriety. 1t was
formed in his youth, and is one of those
principles which have steadily guided his
political course. 1t is not to be expected
that he will disclose his full knowledge on
this delicate subject; yet his conmuaica-
tons evince his opinion, that had a real spir-
1t of conciiiation existed on the part of our
administration, an accommodation of all the
differences between the two nations might
certainly have been accomplished, in man
ner which ought to be perfectly satisfactory
70 the American government. Indeed, it is
impossible to contemplate the real situation
of Great Britain, without feeling the con-
viction, that TO the United States, viewed as
friendly power, nothing could be refused,
which ought to be asked. As friendly

while defended by her hitherto invincible
fleets, he sought to unman them, BY dr,ing
up the, sources of her revenue. One Of tire
most operative means Of cHecting this end,
was the prevention of the use of her manu-
features in foreign countries. The violence
of the measure, the injury it inflicted on
those whom he had no pretext for injuring
and no right to control, when weighed a.
gainst the qualification of vindictive and
unlimited ambition, was as dust in the ba-
lance.
From the cabinet Of London, the object
of this extraordinary decree could not be
concealed, nor could its consequences be
Disregard by them. If permitted to 90
quietly into operation, it would necessarily
transfer the whole commerce that was car
