some of the Representatives belonging

X. Williams and Mr.. Taylor, both of

that though they were, at the time of

account OF the outrage on the Chesa-
peake, they would how, in consequence
Of this letter, consider it an improper

Peace with An1erica.-The question
OF most general interest is what is to
be our future connection with America
Are we to have peace or war?
1t IS to be feared that upon this sub
ject, the public feelings under the man
agement ofparty, and the lamentations
Of somewhat of the old Ieaven, is in
dreadful state Of irritation. What is
the vulgar cry--Let us have war with
America! 1t will punish her insolence,
destroy her commerce, cripple her fu-
ture attemPs at rivalry, and throw her
back whole century in her national
growth.
She has been dieted from the imbeci-
lily Of her infancy to her present mature
strength, upon the industry and manu-
features ofEngland. She has no wealth
but the wealth CT merchants no civil
sustenance but what she draws from us.
Let us make her feel our supremacy and
confess our power, by this pressure up
on her necessities
An American cannot shave or clothe
himself without the aid of Sheffield or

our heeces he must be racked with the
rheumatisms and agues. Have we not
a whole continent in check,
Is. it possible that America could sub

Such is the popular cry; it is the old
delusion, a scion from the same stock of
prejudice which originally lost us these
colonies.
In every crisis Of danger and Difficult
ty we have never hesitated to speak
the truth-we pronounce it therefore

and by crouching, invite the approaches
OF the Tigers, and second edition of
Junots proclamation would shortly be
addressed:
" Inhabitants ofthe United States
My army is about to enter your
country-we come to save you from
England {. &c.
The Great Napoleon, my master,
sends me to protect you: Twill protect
you"
But without coming here to protect
our persons, the Great Napoleon, in his
zoay, is protecting our property within
his immense dominions. Declaring
war for us against England, having in
his opinion no right to declare war our
selves, his Majesty has "ordered that
American vessels, &c. should remain Sc
gueStered."
War says this horrihc note, exists
then in fact between England and the
United States and his majesty consi-
ders it AS declared from the day on
which England published her decrees."
November.]
Is this then the first time that his ma
jesy's consideration has been mention
ed to Gen. Armstrong?
Shall we suffer the Great Napoleon
thus to declare war for US?
But if, allowing we are degenerate
enough to admit Bonapartc to declare
war for US, the orders of England are
in themselves just csuse of war, is not
the decree Of France, which one Year
qfier it z0as bassrd brought those or
ders into the world, also just cause Of
war ?
We are now to determine whether we
will maintain our freedom and indepen-
dence.
Without yielding either to French
Establishments or French force, we
should at every hazard honourably and
satisfactorily settle our affairs with
England, or not settle them at all and
without surrendering an iota of our
rights to England,we should with mode
ration and dignity resent this most inso-
lent attempt on the part of France to
subdue US.

IN his proclamation on entering the CITY
of Lisbon
=" Inhabitants q Lisbon,
My army is about to enter your
walls-We have come to SAGE your har-
6our and your prince from the influence
Of England.
" This prince, so respectable for his
virtues, has allowed himself to be bias
sed by the advice Of evil men that en-
compass him, and has gone to throw
himself into the arms of his enemies.
6 They have made him fear for his
personal safety: to his subjects he has
paid no regard, and your interests have
been sacrificed to the cowardice of
few courtiers.
" Men of Lisbon, be at rest in your
houses, stand in no fear either of nv
army or OF me. We are terrible only
to our enemies and the enemies of viz
tue.
"The Great Napoleon, my master,
sends me to protect you: L will protect
you. TUNor."
With this palaver-this reverend
ing & never-failing syren of France de-
struction, Mons. Junot, a principal
butcher of the g Great Napoleon" en-
tcrs the city of Lisbon to save its poor
inhabitants from the " influence of Eng
land" and to protect them " and L Will
protect YOU"
Now for his protection.
Having entered Lisbon to protect
the inhabitants, he issues the following
bulletins.
Dec. 8. The use of arms, except
by the French military, is this day pro-
hibited under severe penalties. The
inhabitants shall make a declaration of
English property, under the penalty Of
paying ten times the amount and suf-
fer besides c0rboral punishment.
Dec. 70. Tavern keepers and sellers
of wines and spirits are ordered 70 close
their doors at 7 O'Clock.
Dec. 8. The inhabitants are prohi-
hited meeting together under penalty Of
suffering death"
This is admirable protection. "The
Great Napoleon, my master, sends me
80 protect you will protect YOU"
Junot Immediately strips them oftheir
property.

him to order, which, however, had no
effect on Mr.. Randolph"
i must candidly acknowledge. that
never read an equal quantity of igno-
rance and Misrepresentation, in an G.
quail number of lines; and as the Post
editors justly declare the article to be
passing strange" in exposing some
OF the falsehoods, will explain the
apparent mystery.
Some daysprevious to adjournment,
MIR. Randolph had determined to re.
turn home on horseback, and to that
effect, forwarded his principal trunk by
stage. On the evening of the oath,
he was informed, by letter that his
trunk had been cut from behind the
carriage, but had been found in wood
adjacent to the robbery; but, whether
rihed or not, his informant did not
communicate.
This circumstance, doubtless, excl
ted some anxiety in Mr.. Randolph !;
but, forgetful of it, he attended the
whole Of the first sitting Of the last
day." and closely took care of all che
unfinished business, in which he had
previously interested himself; norwas
1T but a short time before the close of
that sitting, that he obtained leave of
absence.
In the evening when the members
were collecting, and before a quorum
was formed, Mr.. Randolph appeared
on the floor, shook hands, not with
''each, without a single exception"
but with many ofthe members, and en-
phatically pronounced, Good bye, Sir,
God bless you---a pleasant Journey
home," &c. During this gentleman
ly and affectiouate" farewell, the
speaker twice asked if there was
quorum in the house, which there then
was not; and the writer of this being
in a situation both TO hear and see, in
the gallery of the house, during the
whole transaction, is under the strong
est impressions, in which he is iustif-
ed by those present with him, that the
word order" was not mentioned bv
the Speaker, until after Mr. Randolph
retired.
