In monarchy, the goodness of the gov

prince in a republic, on the wisdom and

therefore affirmed, that though a monarchy

lie must be destroyed by the immortality OF
its own citizens.
Whatever some may think of the business
OF this reasoning in theory, there can he no

from what has actually happened in the

virtues of their inhabitants, were elevated
to the greatest pitch of human perfection [;

GENT ITO our friends in America we

that they would act with full conf ience

act in unqualified hostility to them, is not
To be endured.
Upon this subject, our ministers, to say
the best OF them, have been very equivocal.

must be shortly settledsslnd ave think that
those will act wisely, who act upon this
