 l suppose you have read the Message long afore this, and begin to think the time aint far off when we shall all on us be call ed on to give the Frenehmena stirrin up for not paving us that just debt they owe us.
 wish could write French as well as | can American, for then 'd sit down and give Louis Phillip my notions about this business, for am plaguiy afeard he and his folks don't know as much about the na- tur of this country as they ought to know. If they or any other nation think that be- cause we differ in opinion here among our selves on home matters, we are going to carry our differences into foreign matters, they are amazinly mistaken. #iiHH
 War aint kalkiiated to bring much profit to any nation, especially to our nation as things now stand, but 1t will never do to look to profit or loss account in a business of this natur.
 The Frencbmen owe us five millions of dollars, and they must pay 1t, or we must try and get 1t out of lem if it costs five times the sum. The mode of doing this is for Congress to say. If Congress says, .sacaa c speH," 1 for one of the people say, agreed. If Congress says, "take French property enuf to pay the debt,' say, agreed; and then if the Frenchmen do any thing in turn that looks like war, and Con- gress says, "go at 'em ao,r, bogs," l for one say, "I am ready;"--and If any man may think he can do more good at the head of a brigade of militia than can, he IS welcome to my sword and ceek'd hat, and I'll take his place in the ranks; l don't want better place to do my duty to my country than thar. s4 # sa ae,si
