The conduct Of Bonaparts reminds me Of

Orators He declares himself in hne cue
for a warm debate, brandishes his debating

Bonaparts differs from O'Botherum In this,

When Congress shall again meet to exert
their SupcrIative wisdom In dGViSing ways

N, caR Of Csagress.--A letter from
Washiagtons published in the Mercantile
Advertiser OF this morning, states, that
a. no intention Of calling Congress exists
but, on the contrary there is almost Ger.
.ain.y, should nothing further occur, that
Congress will not convene before the con:

and the remarks Of some Of our brother e!
titorS on The probability of such an event,
we have never been Of opinion that Con-
ersss would be convened. We stated our
doubts on the subject when the report was
Rrst propagated. The executive can have
no motive 70 call Congress, in the present

now bedaubing this minister with praises
for his manly behaviour, he will probably J
justify Napoleon's next attack on our rights
by saying it was in retaliation for Mr.. Arm"

wOuderas the prompsitude Of the govern
meut in publishing this correspondence
they say they are in hopes that the old de.
crpdve system isSto be abandoned, and a
more honest, open, and csralld plan Of Po-
