The conclusion from the whole

The peace party can view him and
his measures only with abliorrence.
The zcar party can have but one
reason for supporting him and that
is, that they are so determined to

no consideration will induce Mr..

If Mr.. Madison is re -clected, his

THE REPLY.

I" We are lost il concern and as
tonishmert," says the National In
teliigenccr, on the capitu!ation Of
Hull. Perhaps every man in the
Union felt something Of the same
sensations on hearing of this dis
graceful catastrophe. There are
some, however. who had eXperien-
ced so much Of them before hand.
that they may have felt them much
less in the end. than Mr.. Gales. 1t
I" looks SO extraordinary says he,
that we know not how to explain it,"
Willing 10 east in our humble mite
in assistance of Mr.. Gales, we give
the following explanatory hints.
4. Gen. Hull's army was mostly
composed of undiscipIined men and
were never reduced to the state Of
subordination, nor capable, during
their short term Of service. ofattain-
ing the achievements Of regulars.
9. Administration had appointed-
them general perhaps not very adj
equate TO the command.
5. IN consequence Of the inatten-
ton Of administration. the British
gained the first news of the war
reinforced Maljen-captared Hnl's
baggage and storcs-and took Mi
chilimackinak. place oithc utmost
consequence for the purpose OF ia
fluencins the Indians.
i. BY the same iaattentiOn, tho
enemy was left in complete command
of the lakes Eric, Huron and Mi
chigan--by reason whereof supplies
bv waterlo Hull we're almost impos-
sible, and -four be packed from a
great distance, on horses. and thro'
wilderness otabout so miles. haunt
ed by savage bands, and sbouading
with almost impossible morasses.
5. AT Brownstown is an important
pass which Hull did not remember,
or perhaps had not force enough to
occupy. Our enemies possessed
themselves of it-and consequently
q considerable force was necessary
10 escort the mail-much more the
sunpiies--both of which were inter-
cepted.
6. When Hull crossed into Cana
ia, he had not the means OF taking
mathematics the revolving Cana
dians could give them. His connec-
ton with these Canadians gave the
enemy every information OF mis-
movements &c. His cannon "ere
not mounted. Procldmdiions will
not always take forts.
7. Administrator had plunged In
to war unprepared. They could not
even make a diversion in n. York
to prevent strong :einforccments be-
ins sent by the enemy from the low
er country of Maiden.
8. By the time the gun carriages
were prepared at Sandwich, there
was a strong regular force at Nal
den-the Indians were insp!riicd ~
HuII's apparen; weasness-ourariny
was in a state very much resembling
insubordination%--i.s situation "as
probably betrayed by tie capture az
the mail by the enemy. Provisions
were almost exhausted (and amuni-
tiou also, as is said)-no adequate
supply at hand-a great part ofour
army sickly-a large force of sa-
wage and Canadians expected from
Makina.-The town Of Detroit like
