They ar- 'dently desire as well as all Europe, to see ran order of things established in t hat country mnp fntn-ivti'ililp. with its own hD0in;s; and with th.2 security of the surrounding nations'; but if that wish cannot be accomplisiied, they are fully authorised by the strictest princi ples of- personal defence, to endeavour to cHppfcthe exertions, to distract the opera tioiis,.andto confound the plans of a govern ment whose system of warfat e, as acknowled ged by. itself, is not only to distress the com merce, to diminish the power, dnd to abridge the dominions of its enemy, but alio to carry diVistation and ruin into the very heart of the British Empire. In the application of these principles his M ijesty has commanded nie to dtfClueK be sides, that hr government have never autho rised a single act, which cot!d not stand 'the . tes.tot.the strictest pr nciples of justice andil sages lecognised and practise I in all ages.

Commercial A--gents of France have done towards the disaf fected indifferent parts of his M ijestySi ter ritory ; that, in carrying on such a corres- p in li ice, he would not have in any manner viohted his pu dicdu'y. A Minister in any foreign country is obliged by the nature of his oliice and the diticsofhis situation, to abs'.ain from all communication with the dis affjeted of the country where hs ii accredit-' e;l, as well as from every other act injurious to the interests of that counlryS'but he is not subject to th i sain:; restraints with respect to countries with which his Sovereign is at war. Ilia actions to fhem may be prai -,e-wurthy or bhmeable, according to the nature of the ac tions themselves ; but they do not constirute any violation of his public character, except in as far as th :y militate against the coCntrjr, where he is accredited. But of all the governments which pretend to be civilized g verniiints, that of France is J the one which his the least right to appeal to ij the liw of nations. With what confidence j can it appeal to that law ? u government il which, tro.n the commencement oi nosun- ties, has never ceased to violate it ; It promi sed protection to the British subjects residing in France. i.nd who niiifht be desirous of re- ij maining there after the recal of his Majesty' embassador. It revoked that promise witii tut any previus notice; it condemned those same pcrons to be prisoners of war : and it clctians them still in tint quality, in contempt of it own engagements and of the usages Universally observed by all civilized natons.
