Claims on France The following paragrsp !
conveying information Of vast importance to M
nv Of our mercantile readers, we find in ii
Richmond Enquirer Of Friday last. We pa
sumo it is derived from private letters from ID
Minister to France, Mr.. RIvEs. II from source
at the Seat Ut Government, it would we shOg
suppose, have been promulgated in the OGd
paper.
Negotiations mih Franc e.-It is said that
French Commissioners assert the conformity !
The Be,Ha and lillian Dec, tes rih the LGu,
Nations! and report favorably on other caa
amounting only to two or three millions.
We should deeply regret such result Oue
~ accoant. 1t would be an act OF gross i1la
tice to our plunde' ed merchants-and fro
whose hand does the blow come! Not from
Bourbons but from the resenerated Governm.
of France. In all their negotiations with
Gallatin in Paris, the BourbOns never dChe
that the Claims were fairly due. They nev
justified the DEGREES Of Bonapartc. As well
| we recolect. they never disavowed any resp
sibllity for his acts; but they principally rein
on their poverty, SC. sc. And DOW, wbel
more liberal Government is established amc1
tkem; when it ought to be supported, on
principles Of justice and good faith, we ar
be put off with frivolous pretence, that %
of the grossest outrages which were eyerPT
trated against neutral Nation, are cOnsl:a
with the Laws of Nations. The characta
France-the free and just principles on Vi
alone her government can be supported
deep sympathy which we have felt in her RED
strusg lps-tbe attachment of our cOuntr!yU
aud the justice of their Claims, should have
spired her commissioners with justcr spln'
We hope it is rot yet too late to repair then
rors. and that her Government will loose
time in reviewing her decision, and in dong
tce to our citizens. Richmond Enquirer
