dasprited and womaalike population Of the most is
norant peasantry on the earth. 1t is not now at
tempted to be concealed, that the major proportion O
these invading expeditions arc Americans, and tha
all the supplies of every kind are furnished from oui

within the limits of Montreal will be uncomfortable
when the frontier retaliation, aggression, insult
and defiance must follow in the nature of things;
and the madness of few Americans will be con-
sldered as the prevalent feeling throughout ccGa
try In fact, it must be part of the plan of the Ca
madam patriots to embroil the two governments, as
the only means of fartherng their own interests, by
an identity Of purpose with the United States-to
wit: the expulsion of British authority from this
We do not see how this result can be avoided but
by the faithful adherence of government to its
protestalions, and by the moderation and prudence of
the British official agents
