Extrdct from the american letter.
'You may be fully assured that perfect un-
Outstanding subsists between our government &
that of france, and that measures will be taken
accordingly indeed it has been roundlv stated
that the project has long since received the sane.
ton of both parties, and list our government on.
ly waits intelligence from Europe, to take that
stand which, i much fear, will end in the des
tructiOn of our Federal Constitution We have
much foreign trade, but it is a losing concern
and am grieved to add that the war party is
daily gaining new accessons of strength Your
Orders IN Council, your impressment, your vio-
]ating the liberty of waters, and above al,
your arrv system of blockade, forbode no good !"
The following is The paragraph alluded to
Fren the Mes.1ork Eveniag Post, Aue.st 8.
FoRE1oN AFTA1Rs.-From the late ar.
counts from Europe, it appears that there is no
longer hope that our affairs with foreign pow
ers can be settled by negotiation. We must now
sit down and acknowledge that we mean to sub
init to every indignity which can be heaped upon
as, or we must grid on the sword and defend
ourselves. We must prepare for war or for sub
,Jugstion there is no avoiding it Meanness will
shield us no longer. The public mind ought to
be prepared Tor energetic measures They must
be resorted to. And should another session of
Congress pass over in continuing much and per.
forming nothing, the country will be nearly ruin.
ed IL viii be almost too late to think of saving
the nation.'
Remarks BY the Editor of The Statesman.
There is some difference between the writer
OF tiIe paragraph and that of the letter vet If IS
not material, Tor they both plainly tend to shew
that the Americans do not expect any accommo-
dation with England. And indeed, how can

nisters adopted towards the u States, What
insult have they withheld their hand, or their
heart from offering to America Impressiner her
