A FEW PLAIN QUESTIONS.

To fsc Editors Of federal .Ntssshafers gener-
ally, 10 sphick az is errecfed an asssrtr syiH
nct te refused.
ist During the last election in Massachu.
sctts when the Presidents proclamation and
the correspondence between Smith and Frs
kline arrived, did you not tell us that Great
Britain had been always disposed to settle our
hiGercSces honourably- she had before
made the same propositions to Mr.. Jefferson,
which his hostility To her and freach inIlu-
snce had prevented his accepting!
ID. Do you not now tell us, that she never
tid make such propositions--and Go you not
censure Mr.. Erskine for acting without In
slraciions
Sd. Were you guilty Of falshood and mis-
representation then, or. arc you guilty now
and If you shamelully and base;y deceived
your readers at the election, do you really
think you are entitled TO their confidence on
any occasion Would any Of you employ
servant who had wilfuily received you when
his passions or his interest prompted him
4th. Do YOU not in your conscienccs believe
that you deserve the appcllation OF TORIES,
when,. to maintain the cause of Britain, TO cx-
tol her goodness and to emblazon her Justice,
in defiance of truth and regardless of con-
science, you sacrificed the reputation Of JEFF
ferson and betrayed the confidence OF your
readers
5th. Finally, do you feel that you have done
justice TO MIR. Jefferson in charging him with
French Influence for not according to propo-
sitions, which you acknowledge were never
made
Though you may seek security in silence,
and may hope for iorgctfulncss in this dread
full crisis of our fate, when the dcstincs of
our country are suspended by single hair ;
yet be not deceived, for the sentence Of your
guilt viii soon be pronounced by the voice OF
IN indignant people, who equally despisc and
abhor British hilelings, whether foreign or
domestick. ONE OF THE PEOPLE.

man can suffer II ia all fear there Is torment"
how miserable must be his state, who, by living in

ing upon himself to be surrounded with spies, enc

his heart throbs within from apprehcions of secret

So numerous and great arc the evils arising from

is more eligible 10 expose ourselves to occasional

y. This answcr his been dckyed for tco
:ohg time, and l ask your pardon for it.
This delay hes been wholly owing to an en-
oarrassmcnt in the translation of your letter,
the Marquis dc Ia Coste, my son in-law, be-
ing the Only one in my house who reads
little English.
These letters of the Marquis Of yerac to
Mr.. Dana, are so perfectly concordant, par
agraph by paragraphs, and almost word for
word, with the conversations, of the Duke de
Ia Vauguion with me, at the Hague, many
months before, that | have no doubt both were
dictated at Versailles by the Count de Yer
genncs and his confidential secretary, Mr.. De
Rayncval. 1t is to be regretted that those
conversations, were not reduced to writing at
the time. But the Duke cndeavoured to
avail written correspondence on the subject,
and had very powerful reasons for not fore
ing him TO it. will not venture to say that
the advice TO both was not wise, leave it TO
the Judgment OF more learned and cxpericn-
ced statesmen. did not see or feel the
force of it, at the time, and venturcd to pro-
ceed in opposition to it; and my temerity
was rewarded with success, even beyond my
own expectations.
In my next you will have the answer Of
the Court of France to the articles Of the

At a H,ee,ing of the citizens yesterday,
held in ST Michael's Church, agreeable to ad-
jourrimrn :, DIR. RAMSAY in the chair, JonN s.
CoeDELL Secretary.
The cor nmittec appointed at the meeting
of the 2et ult. reported sundry resolutions /;
which ben lg read by the chairman, were VI
nanimousl agreed 10, and are as follows ---
WlyEE E.9S it appears by the ProcIama-
ton of tn President of the United States Of
the 9th uh ;. that Tic arrangement lately con-
ciuded byk him and the Minister Of his Britain
nick maje, ~, has been disavowed by the Gov
ernmcnt { the latter, though tile United
States hat performed with the utmost promp-
titudc and good faith the stipulations incum-
bant on TN I'm (; IN consequence OF which, the
sincere and honourabIc endeavours of our
Goyernms IT 10 meet that nation on footing
of anlity land pacifcation have failed, and all
the evils fIcsulting from their Orders in Coun-
Gil are aC;Iin visited upon our peaceful and
rightful ctbmmerce, under circumstances pc
cuIiarIy Injurious and insulting, while the
other nu hncrous violations OF our neutral
rights am A national honour, Of which we
have so 10 ng and SO Justly complained, re-
main altoe ether unredressed And, whereas,
the arrans cment, so happily concluded, con-
taincd, i'm the. opinion of this meeting, no
more than this Government was in honour
bound to d enand and no more than the Gov
crnmcpt q, Grcat.Dritain was in justice o.
bligcd to rant, and has been rejected by the
latter, und ,r prctcnccs as affrontivc as they
are unjust III becomes our duty as free
people, "a nong whom publick sentiments
constitutes national strcngth) at so important
crisis, to inmate and confirm the resolves of
our rulers and representatives, by an express
sion of our confidence, and to proclaim TO the
world, that breathing this confidence, and
united 10 a man, in Tic love OF our inestima-
bic Covert inert, and our excellent Constitu-
ton, it is tour determinations to support, by
every sacr iijce and at every hazard, the hon.
our Of our country, and the just rights Of a
great and independent pcople--Ihercfore,
Resoipe, I. That we, the citizens OF Charles
ton and its vicinity, Of every political dcnom-
instion, in this meeting assembled, feel the
highest indignation and resentment ut tho
manner il which the United States have been
treated W ith in the late negotiation nor will
those feel ngs be alaycd by tho belief that the
conduct e.f the British Ministry in the trans
action was characterized by the guilt OF per-
fidy, for The prctcnces on which they have
acted wotlld not therefore cease TO be as un-
Just as they arc incompatible with the pride
and honour Of an independent nation.
Rcsoivsd, That we have the highest con-
6dencc in the virtue, ability and prudence Of
the President Of the United Statcs---thst we
highly approve Of the prompt and disnifcd
manner ia which he has removed the opera
ton Of the non-intercourse laws, and solemn
Iy pledge to him, to Congress, and to our
Country, pur lives cur fortunes, and our sa-
