mrLlsq LETTER 70 MR.. xAD1sox.

S1R-Just as / told you in one of my let
tiers good while ago; neither of my four
boys will list; because they say the intended
war is not righteous one. They say if mer-
cy is better than sacrifice in ethics, it will GER
tainly hold good in politics, and that if Jefer-
son and yourself had not been predetermined
to quarrel with England, you might have set
tied with her long and merry ago, and that
now instead of another ruinous embargo we
might be enjoying profitable trade in spite
of all Bonaparte could do, who being con-
frmed, acknowledged Freebooter, ought to
be treated like every other barbarian, by
stunning him where we can, and fighting
where we cannot and that if you have been
such a simple bird as to let him get his snare
round you SO snug as not to be loosened by any
means but by fartiaI, one-aided var, they
say the ID may fight your battles tor them.
And am apt to think others think so besides
my boys, for it appears nobody will list for
five years, and SO you are trying to get them
for eighteen months: but believe you will
have very little better success that way. |
know the reason of it we'll enough: The war
isnot popular. The young men OF this hap
py country have generally had opportunities
of learning q little of every thing: they all
know by newspapers and other things, what IS
going on in the world, and they can commonly
draw pretty straight conclusion. The talk
is, wherever have been, that there is always
awheel within wheel, that one story is good
till another is told that you, at the big house,
have not stated the business fairly that the
old fellows in the last war, made a solemn APP
peal to God and to the world for the justice Of
their cause, and as they cannot well make the
same appeal, they think they will not fight this
time, sc. sc. You appear to be going on
mighty strange. That willy scoundrel Henry,
humbugged you most miserably. Doctor
Henry knew precisely the state ofyour disor-
der, and to what means you would descend, to
carry your points. He then sat down and
made a bolus exactly suiting your case, told
you what it was composed of, and you swal-
lowed it in moment Although you gave
| $4,000 dollars for this, it will prove bitter
! pill to you! cant help comparing you here
to the wicked Raman, for this very trick has,
