are so much gv9rse, that the. people will adhere
to Us, as the least Of two evils. You ought TO
DC the accused instead of the aceusers. Your
rash, incorporate, headloDg measures OF last

York has taught you a lesson which you will
long remember.
In this state Of political deprayity, you pro-
fess to be the disciples Of WAsHISGTos,whilc

cend to the United States, purified, Gf purifi-
cation were necessary in the rich fountains OF
eternal love, he would weep over the foilies
and frailties of his children, who have wander
ed from his precepts. "Tbc United States,

no charms for me. Its gates, which were
Union, and its walls, which were strength, are
broken down. The stream is removed from
its place by The falling Of the wall, the thistle
shakes there its lonely head, the moss Whistles
in the wind, the fox peeps out OF his window,
and the rank grass of the wall waves around
his head. Such would be the effusion of a
heart, overwhelmed with disappointment at a
dereiction Of patriotism. But sir, amidst all
this decay of republican feelings, and republi-
can virtue in Massachusetts, think can dis
cover some glimmering hope that you will be
brought back TO revolutionary principles.
Should we obtain PEACE, your opposition
would be hopeless if not, you will find it ncc-
essary to unite agains; the power OF Great
Britain. Sir, we shall not be slaves. The sun
OF patriotism will rise, with healing in his
wings and majesty in his beams, dispe the
mists which surround US, warm and reanlmate
your country's friends, and scorch and con-
sumo the advocates of her foes.

In the Gazette de France, we read the fol-

" The delightful! name Of peace is heard on
all sides-Europe is awakened to the enjoy
ment OF its benefits. Negotiations have also
been opened to bring about The re-establish-
ment of good understanding between Eng
land and the United States, which has only
been disturbed by the effect of the disordered
system adopted by Napoleon. 1t is known
that the Penipo,entiaries of the two great
powers are TO meet at Gofen6urg, perhaps
even they may meet in London. We have
learnt with pleasure, that the Chief Of one of
the first tribunals in France, invited to his
house Lord Castlereagh, and Mr. Crawford,
the Minister OF the United Statess several
persons of consideration, both French and
English, were present. l. was remarked that

Peace was proposed TO them, and they ac-
cordIngiy replied to it,"
