COMMUNICATIONS.

The address Of Mr.. Adams, to the citizens OF
Washington, the 9TH of July, seems TO have
attracted much attention. They no were pre-
viously his friends, have considered it not only
as concise aud lucd Development of the caus-
es and principles of the revolution, but manly
exposition of those feelings of patriotism which
the occasion ought to excite in every American
heart. While they who were previously his
enemies, and who have been eagerly watching,
in vain, for an opportunity of attack, have
deemed 1t st occasion to spring from their
ambush, and reek their malice
They who are neither the personal friends,
nor enemies of Mr.. Adams, who wish neither
.o'supPort without cause, nor 10 debsse by I'M
fair means, his political character, and who are
governed only by that ardent patriotism which
every man ought to feel for his country, will
stanl aloof from the contest, and decide upon
its merits with calmness and imparislity.
1t was an occasion calculated to call forth
feelings peculiarly American--feelings in which
i could not be expected that the subjects of any
other nation could sympathize. II the feelings
expressed in the address are the genuine feel.

Mr.. .sdants's Grafton cgain.-The editorial
remarks of the Washington City Gazette of the
s2lst inst. reminds us of Cobbetts charge agains
Matthew Carey, that "Ihis is the third time he
mas obtruded upon me his hostile professions of
friendship" Notwithstanding the ingenuity of
the editor, his pen SO tends to bIots that he has
constantly TO employ his sponge to wipe them
of, but which in defiance Of his good and s'in,-
partial intentions unfortunately leaves the tai,
of the ink behind. None Of the numerous re-
marks seem to suit his palate, and ne appears I'M
able to make repast to suit himself from his
owne carving, unless he gets it cooked in the
"Missouri'' kettle, and boiled with the water OF

EsQUIaAUx INDIANS.


Since the arrival of captain Hadlock, with
those natives, much curiosity has been ex-
cited, and many thousand persons have seen
iheIr ms y of whom have expressed a be-
lief that they had been stolen from the coast.
Facts have now been developed, that in
duce belief that captain Hadlock bas taken
these poor creatures from their country, aud
brought them 10 a land of strangers, contra
~ 20 their inclinations.
The circumstances as related TO US are

Wan minister, called 10 see them, and being
acquainted with the language used on the
coast Of Labrador, be convefsed with the
man. At first be evinced great unwilling
ness TO answer any questions; but, on the
Rev gentlema. mentioning the name OF one
OF the Moravian missionaries, be caught
hold of Mr.. MortImer's arm. and expressed
much surprise. A full development was
soon after made to gentleman OF this city.
The mayor was applied to. who immediate
ly issued habeus corpus, and the man, NO.
man, and child were brought before him. -
The man stated. that be could speak Eng

captain sent boat on shure with Eve men,

the public as bis wife and child When
they were all on board, be told them that
they must 90 to Amerils and if they spoke
ahy other word in English than Yes, Yes, he
would Immediately Kill them; that it was
from fear they have been kept from speaking
English, since their arrival. The mayor is
sued a warrant for the apprehension of Had
