1t is not good principle to encour-

being agreeable to foreigne The
example Of the French is, in this res

French, or they come among ourselves,
you hear them making no disagreed
BILE comparisons between our manners
and institutions and theirs. Is the subject
to be introduced in conversation, they
politely enu,neratea all the advantageous
points in our government and national
character, and what little they utter in
praise Of their own country, is said in
such manner as not to wound the ma
tional pride OF the Americans. John
Bull on the other hand, cannot encoun.
ter an American without getting into
an angry dispute with him about the
comparative merits Of their respective
governments and people. In this res

a circumstance has occurred at

the renewed harmony between France
and America. On the fourteenth the
american brig Bantam, loaded with
Turkish produce for Boston, set sail
got beyond the castle, when she was
forcibly boarded by French man-of-

men, armed, said they were in search
OF two deserters, whom they suspect

word Of honor, that there were no
such mon iathe ship, the French COM
mander commenced strict search: and
not succeeded in finding the deserters,
the officer ordered the American can.
tain to return to Smyrna. On this the
American hauled down the flag, and
abandoned tho vessel, and the French
brought her to anchor between the cas-
ue and the town. Captain Inglee then

said to be re narkabic trait in the
character of the Chinese. They are
peculiarly disagreeable to one another,
as two self conceited coxcon!,s, When
they happen to meet, hate one another
worse than they are hated BY any other
individuals.
The modest man can endure mani
testations Of self esteem in others, with.
a great deal more tranquility than a
proud man. It is sometimes said
that the bluntness of the English
and Americans in this respect, when
compared with the politeness Of the
French, is proof of the greater
sincerity of the former. For the same
reasons we ought to call all the polite
ness hypocrisy, and rudness sincerity.
This difference ought rather to be attri-
buted to the greater liberality of mind
in the French character. The French
have not ouly more politeness, but more
philosophical candor than the English
and Americans. They have more Of
that mental quality which distinguish
es a civilized people from barbarians
and philosophers from bigots. In
many other points, it may be readily
granted, that the French are excelled
both by the English and Americans.
If, instead Of initiating France in all
her absurd reinements Of fashion, as
we are accustomed to do, we were to
initiate her in the liberality Of her
speech and writings which we are not
accustomed to do, our national charac-
ter would be vastly improved. At
present so far Us we can be said TO imi-
tate tn: English a I'd the French, we
select for our imitation the most ridi-
culous points in International character.
