fays We a few dys fmce challenged thceditors rf any p'per who denied the repeal of the Berlin and Milan decrees, to produce a lile inlhnce of. the detention of an American velTel, which hid arnved in France fince the fecond of Novn t cr. No inllance can be produced, and they are filent. But if they are 'repealed, fay iome of the pwpers, 4 it is done nirrc ly to embroil the United States with us ; betides let Bonaparte reflore to the Americans, property which was frized before the repeal." As to the motive of Bonaparte for doin'g a jufl action, we hive neither tiie abili:y nor the right to 'enquire into; moreover, We ought to htve fo much in-ignahimity as not .to permit the man we Uyle the robber and pdLger of Europe, to exceed us in arts of julVicc to neutral nations.

If plunder on the ocean v.ni be united with the cruflty of the tomahawk, then let freemen do their duty. Essex Register, The Britifli every day become bolder in their leisures of American property. They hardly offer a fpeous pretence. They at as if ti cy were told by ourftlvcs to tike who they pieafe, when they pleafe, and as they pleafe. -They report our dilVontents, to prove how feeble mud be our rciiftance, if we fiiouldever pretend to make it. They even tell us that fome of our citizens court not only their friendftr.p or alliance, but to be the I objects of their power.
