For The Rhode-hiand RchH5HcaH.

Observing i'm an address TO III. Il. Gus,
wherein is mentioned Resolve agreed to by
? caucus of the British faction in Boston,
which in my opinion, is bareiaced menace,
thcv must know that the non-intercourse law
does not materially affect the British, except
In their manufactures il is well known there
are various sources by which they are suppl
ed with the necessaries of life and naval
stores in this country. la Spain and Portu-
gal. their armies and navies arc FULLY suppl
ed. I do not know an instance that an Amer"
lean vessel entered Spanish port that was
possessed by the French this brought to
INV mind what could induce the French to
suspend or repeal the Milan and Berlin de-
crees it was, suppose, to try whether the
British would repeal their orders OF council,
and take off the general paper blockade, and
finding il would have no effect on the British,
they, no doubt, will put their'decrecs in force
again not being ignorant, that all their ene-
mics are fully supplied from this country,
when their own armies suffer for want {;
therefore what favour can the United States
of America expect from France To do c.
DUAL Justice to the belligerents, all intercourse
with Spain and Portugal in Europe, ought to
be stopped, and that to any neutral islands In
tho West-Intiies, through which the British
Islands, their navies, armies and privateers
are supplied by which they are enabled to
cruise on our coasts, execute their mali-steai-
ing business, and plumber our vessels.
The violcnt and nsoient cabal IN tho town
of Boston apains the non-intcrCourse law
with respect 20 the British, arises principally
from ship-owners, who carry on trade to Brit
ain. who consist of British merchants, British
a. md
aud supported by lawyers and priests these
combined together make up troop OF un-
pr;acpled men, respecting the good govern
ment and happiness of the citizens OF the u
nitcd States, aiming to bring about diSsoiu'
tion Of the union Of the states, and to destroy
the most excellent government that ever was
formed for the happiness oil mankind, ana 10
introduce monarchy, nobility and an establish
cd religion, these creatures expect 10 form
new government, similar to the British gov
crnmcnt whereby they expect their seil-ih-
tercst and ambition may be gratihed, ana the
farmers and mechanicks OF this country re-
duced 10 as low state of living, as they are
in Britain, Ireland, &c. l'think thcy VIII DC
fully disappointed In their aim but due con
sideration ought to DC had oil the conduct oil
the British faction in the United States, espc-
Cialy that existing in Boston, whose menaces
ought to be checked, and wherever any direct
opposition is made against the laws oil the u
nited States, and insults Offered 10 puolick
officers, proper force ought 10 be employed
20 aid the enforcing of the laws, and to appre-
bend all those, who offer insult to publick Oh
fcers, or attempt to cbstruct the operation OF
the laws, that they may be brought to condign
punishment. If they should make any opposi-
ton to the force necessarily employed, the
republicans should be called upon To turn out
and cxterminate the British faction irom oil
the face of the United States. 1T such CIR
cumstancc should not arise, the only way to
lid this country of them, would be by war
with the British, when this traitorous faction
would shcw themselves openly, which would
cause their extcrmination, or punishment ior
treason
The British force is scattered, so that they
cannot furnish much aid 10 their faction here
They have large force in SPAN aHd Portu-
Gal, where they are making the utmost eXer-
tions in their power. They have garrlsons,
(which scatters their force) at Malta, Cape oil
Good Hope, Surrinam, Isles of Bourbon, OF
France, Martinico, Guadaloupc, sc. ri! this
con sidered, with their not being able 20 hire
foreign troops, shews they cannot do much
here never was there q better time TO re-
sent the vile, abusive, pratical and murder
Gus conduct of the British. l hear British
fee; is expected in this country this may be
TO unite their force with the British faction to
enforce their caucus resolves.
