In 1776 the Count pit sen led another memorial, in reLlion to the manner in wbieh Franoe and Spain ought to eo&tetaplate the consrquenots of the quarrel between Great Britain and her colonies. Upon this we have the reflections i Mr. Turgot, to show the ideas then cnterUioed by the Cabinet of Versailles en the subject. He says:' "In going over with Monsieur De Vcrgennes tee various practicable modes which the Quarrel between Eorlfld.and her colonies may terminate, it has' appeared, to' me that the o? ent, the mo?t desirable for the interest of tha two orowns (Trance and Spain) would Cb, that England should conquer the resistance ef her colonif a and force them to submit to her yoke. The rcssons for this opinion are, if the colonies; should, only be subingated ty the ruin ot ail tneir resources, England would lose the' advantages she has hitherto drawn from them) during peace by tne increase of her eommeroe, and during war by the use she has been able. to make of their contrary, the vanquished. was the first persot men or woman, who had offered any resistance to his baa 4. They carried cT nearly all the valuable they eculd find, including fill ex ware and jewelry, six thousand collars La Confederate notes, and two breastpins, containing th piotsree ef Mrs. Me Hair's .husband and son; the Latter of w bora fell in defence cf his country on ess of ths battle fields of Virginia. The ooursge and determina tion of this noble woman aarois more of reman oa than reality, bat the incidents given ia this ar ticle are literally true.
