j^'vurrcs ofyour reason, nncl tormented!
the delicacy of your conscience, to per-
■fuitclc yourself that you belonged to Hol
land. The Dutch citizens who inclined
most to France were neglected and per
secuted, those who served the interests
of England were advanced.—Frenchmen
of all ranks have been expelled or de
graded, and 1 have had the grief of seeing
in Holland, under a prince of my own
Mood, the Frencli name exposed to dis
grace. But 1 carry so deeply in iny
heart, and have been able to bear so
high, on the bayonets of my soldiers, the
reputation k honor of the French name,
that it does not belong to Holland, or any
one else to slander it with impunity.
The speeches of your majesty to the
nation have been distinguished by a dis
affected disposition. There is seen there
nothing but allusions to France, and in
stead of giving an example of oblivion to
the past,they recal it constantly, and thus
flatter the secret passions and feelings of
the enemies of my government. But
what do these Hollanders complain of ?
wre they not conquered by our anus ? do
they not owe their independence to the
generosity of my people ? ought they not
to hless the generosity of France, which
has constantly left open their canals and
custom-houses, which has employed its
conquest only to protect them—and even
to this hour has used it? power only in
oonsolidating their independence. Who
thpn can justify the conduct of your ma
jesty, insulting to the nation and offen
sive to myself. You arc to understand
Unit 1 do rot separate myself from my
predecessors, and that from Clovis to the
committee of public safety, I regard myself
ns the responsible representative of the
‘whole, and the ill which is fondly said of
the governments which have preceded me
1 take a# said in the intention of insulting
Myself. I know myself. 1 know that it
lias become customary with some to eu
logise me and decry France ; but those
who do not love France do not love me ;
those who speak ill of my people arc my
greatest enemies. If I had no other rea
son of discontent than the sight of the
disgrace, into which the French name
laid fallen in Holland, the right cf sove
reignty permitted me to declare war a-
gainst a Frince, my neighbor, in whose
dominions such insults were permitted a-
gainst my people. But from this 1 have
refrained.
But your majesty is mistaken in my
character ; you have a false idea of my
kindness and of my sentiments towards
you. You have violated all the treaties
you have made with me. You have dis
mantled your fleets, disbanded your sai
lors, and broken up your armies, till
Holland is without forces on land or at
eea ; as if warehouses, merchants, and
committees could consolidate a nation.—
These make a rich association, but the
royal power cannot exist without fi-m-
cos, without a regular system of recrui
ting and without a fleet. .
Your niajcgty has done more. You
profiKed of the moment, when 1 was cm
barrassed on the continent, to renew the
relations of Holland with England, mid
tt) violate the blockade laws, the only
successful means of annoying her. 1
showed my discontent with this conduct,
by laying an interdiction with France,
and 1 caused her to feel that even w ith-
out the assistance of my armies, by clo
sing the Rhine, the Weser, the ShcIJt,
and the Meuse against Holland, 1 could
place her in u more critical situation
than if I had declared war against her,
end that I could insulate her to a ruinous
degree.
This blow wa3 felt in Holland. A our
majesty implored me to be generous, ap
pealed to my fraternal sentiments, and
promised a change of conduct. 1 thought
this would be sufficient warning. 1 took
off the interdiction of my custom houses,
but your majesty soon returned to your
former system. It is true that 1 was then
at Vienna, and had a heavy war on my
hands. Alt the American vessels which
on being driven from the ports of France
offered themselves at those oj Holland
were admitted by your majesty. 1 was
obliged a second time to shut my cus
tom-house against the Dutch intercourse
Certainly it was difficult to make a more
authentic declaration cf war. In this
state of things we may be considered as
actually at war. In my speech to the
corps legislatif l gave them to understand
inv discontent, and 1 shall not conceal
from you, that it is my intention to unite
Holland to France as a complement ol
Ifbe territory, as the most Fatal blo w 1 can
^Inflict on England, and as treeing me
from the continual insults which the
leaders of your cabinet are constantly of
fering me. In fact, the mouths of the
Rhine and the Meuse ought to belong to
me. The principle that the channel
[talweg] of the Rhine is our boundary is
u fundamental principle. } our majesty
wrote me, in your loiter of the 17th,
that you are sure of being able to destroy
sill commerce ol Holland w ith England ;
that y ou can raise finances, armies and
navies ; that you will establish the prin
ciples of the constitution in giving no
privileges to the nobility, in abolishing
the marshals, which is but a caricature,
and which is incompatible with a pow er
of the second rank, in line, that you
would scivc all the deposits of colonial
merchandize, and all that has arrived in
American vessels, which ought not to have
entered your ports. It is my opinion that
your majesty has promised more thau you
can perform, and that the union ol llol-
land with France is hut deferred. I al
low that 1 have no more interest to unite
the territories on the right bank of the
Rhine to France, than l have to unite to
it the grand duchy of Berg and the Han
seatic towns. 1 then can leave Holland
till the territory on the right bank ol the
Rhine, and I will repeat all my acts of
non-intercoursc whenever the treaties
already Oxi-ting, nnrf which sh ill be re-
neivod, shall be executed. The follow,
ing are my intentions with respect to it.
■1. Interdiction of all commerce and
intercourse with England.
/*• A navy of 11 whips of the line, 7
frigates, and 7 brigs or corvettes, armed
and equipped.
‘.-1. A land force of 25,000.
‘1. I be suppression of the order of
marshals.
‘5. The apolition of the privileges of
the nobility, contrary to the constitution
which I gave and guaranteed.
^ our majesty ran negocinte with the
Due dc Cadore, by interposition of your
minister ; but you may rest assured that
at the tirstj packet-boat, the first vessel
ivhich shall enter Holland, I will re-es-
tablish the non intercourse, and that at
the first insult, which is offered to my flag,
I trill cause to be seized by force and hung
at the yard arm, the Dutch officer who,
dares to insult my eagle. Your majesty
will find in ine a brother, if 1 find a
Frenchman in you ; but if you forget the
sentiments which attach you to our com
mon country, you will not complain if 1
forget those of the relations which nature
has placed between ns. In fine, the un
ion of Holland and France will he of the
utmost utility to France, Holland and the
continent, for it trill cause the utmost an
noyance to Kuglund. This union may
lake place either peaceably or forcibly.
I am sufficiently aggrieved by Holland
to declare war. Notwithstanding this, I
hall lie ready to agree to au arrange
ment which shall cede me the boundary
oftho Rhine, and by which Holland shall
engage to fulfil the conditions stipulated
above.
‘Your affectionate brother,

OF TTIE PLURALITY OF WORLDS.
Translated fttorn the French of Moil, dc la La.de.
Tile resemblance that is seen between the
planets and the earth has caused many great
philosophers to believe that the planets were
also destined to receive living beings, and are
inhabited. The idea of a plurality of worlds
is found in those ancient Creek poems at
tributed to Orpheus. The Pythagoreans
taught that the stars were so many worlds.
Many ancient philosophers admitted even an
liufluity of world* beyond ti;o reach of oar
eyes. The Epicurean* were of tile same o-
pliiion, and Metrodoru* thought it as absurd
to suppose there was only one inhabited
world, ns to suppose that only one ear uf
corn could grow in a vast field. There have
been some who would only allow inhabitants
to the moon. A much more ample detail
of the opinions of the ancients upon the plu
rality of worlds may be seen iiiFahricius, and
the Memoirjof Mon. Bonnniy. Hevctiuscnlls
the inhabitants of the union Sclenita*, and
he has examined all the phenomena observ
ed in this planet.
The plurality of worlds lias been since or
namented with all the graces and wit that
can be put in physical conjectures, by M.
dc Fontonelle; and >1. Huygens lias a dis
sertation, at great length, upon this matter
In effect, the resemblance is so perfect be
tween the earth and the other planets, that
if we suppose the earth made to lie inhabited,
ivo cannot well doubt but what the other pla
nets were equally made for the same pur
pose ; and if we conceive any necessary re
lation between the existence of our terrestri
al globe and that of mankind, we are forced
to extend the same necessary rel ition to the
other planets. He who would refuse to do
so, would be as inconsequent as one who,
seeing that one of a species of animals con
tains bowels,should believe that all others of
tin- same species might contain only stones
We see six planets around the sun ; the
earth is the third of them: they ha
movement of rotation like the earth ; they
have, like it, spots, inequalities, and moun
tains ; there are three of them that have
moons or satellites; the earth, one of the
three, has one moon or satellite. Jupiter is
flatted at the poles, like the earth. In short
there is not one visible character of resemb
lance that is not actinlly observed between
the planets and the earth.
Is it possible to suppose that tile existence
of living and thinking beings is confined to
our earth? Upon what can this privilege In:
founded, except upon the narrow and tirr.id
imaginations of those who cannot raise them
selves beyond the- objects of their immediate
sensations ? What is said of the six planets
that turn around our sun, must naturally ex
tend itself to all the planetary systems that
surround tile stars. Every fixed star ap
pears In be, like our sun, a luminous and im
moveable body. If our sun is made to re
tain and euligliteil'the planeti that revolve
around it, vve oliglit to presume the. same
tiling of the fixed stars tint appear to be suns,
and that they too have their phinets revolv
ing around them. And if we suppose that
the existence of inhabitants of the earth Las
xtny necessary relation with that of tile ter
restrial globe, we must suppose inhabitants
in all other planets. There have been wri
ters as timid as religious, who have reproved
this system, as contrary to religion. This
seems to be but badly to maintain the glory
of the Creator. If the extent oi his works#
announce his power, cm there be given a
more magnificent and sublime idea of it ?—
We see at the simple view several thousand
stars; and there is not a reginil of the 1 leav
ens, in which an ordinary perspective glass
docs not s*low many more than tin* naked a here
• ye ran distinguish. ’ When we use the great
telescopes we discover a new ol der til things,
k another multitude of stars, tluit vve should
not have suspected with the ordinary glas
ses ( ami the more perfect tin* instruments
ire, the more this infinity of new worlds
nulliplies and extoads itself: the idea pier-
res beyond the telescope, and discover* a
iww multitude of worlds, infinitely greater
than what our weak and limited vision ran
trace. Thu imagination goes still farther,
and in vain seek* for limits* to its range.—
Wliat an ustonishiiig spectacle 1
COMMERCE WITH ASIA.
From the. Kentucky Reporter.
Those who attempt nothing will accom
plish nothing; and wlirtt is smiled at to day
as a visionary project, may bo practised to
morrow as a familiar operation.
Wliat i* more familiar at this day than
the navigation of the Mississippi, **'*d the ex
tort of produce mid the import of merchan
dise upon that route ? \ eV ill the year 17111!
a majority of the people of the U. States
considered it impossible, and eminent men
employed their pons to prove it so. The
falls of the Ohio, the sawyers of the Missis
sippi, the length of the river, the rapidity ol
its current, were severally insisted upon as
fearful obstacles to its sale descent. To
come back was held utterly impossible. The
river was too long, to he re*88ceuded ; the
country between was filled with treacher
ous savages ; the only wav to gut hack was
go out through the gulpli of Mexico, and
mill tn riiiladelpli'ui, and cornu down to
the Ohio, by tbe Pittsburg road ; mid such
was actually the return route of some of
the first traders to New Orleans.—It would
lie amusing to read the publications of that
day, to seo how many insurmountable obsta
cles to the navigation of the Mississippi were
conjured up, anil placed in terrible array, to
p. event forever the progress of any trade up
on that liver. (Morse’s Geography.) And
then to compare these dogmatic opinions
with the spectacle at this day exhibited up
on the bosom ol that uohle si ream.
An equally formidable array of impassa-
■ obstacles may be conjured up to oppose
the navigation of the. Columbia and Missou-
i; to become in like manner tbe subject ol
idicule and contempt in the lapse of some
few years.
If'the force of habit did not reconcile us to
the. greatest absurdities, a merchant of the
valley of the Mississippi, who would think of
trading to the. East Indies by the route of
Philadelphia, the Atlantic ocean, and the
Cape of Good Hope, would lie held a in fin
out of Iii* senses, and unfit for the manage
ment of his own affairs.
Tint the line of the Columbia, the Miss
ouri and Ohio, will eventually become the
channel of the American commerce with In
dia, must he obvious to all who observe the
progress of human events, the march of the
American people to the west, and the facili
ty ofcoiniuunicating with Asia by tbe north
Pacific ocean.
The eyes of eminent men have rested up
on this obvious road to India.
In projecting an expedition of discovery
to the Pacific ocean, Mr. Jefferson was not
indulging an idle and barren curiosity. He
sought a channel for the commerce of the
Republic, ami a port on the Pacific, whence
the furs of America might be exported di
rect to tbe markets of China and Japan.—
Instructions to Lewis amt Clark.) Would
that lie were yet young enough to carry in
to effect the plan which his genius project
ed !—May be yet live to see upon his table
the tea* of China imported upon the lino
which bis patronage developed !
With the aid of the American government
the trade upon this route would immediate
ly begin.
That aid is not required in money, but in
government protection : in giving to an A-
incrican Fur Company an uctol incorpora
tion, with leave to forma port of entry at
the mouth of the Columbia, and to establish
a chain of posts and trading stations Iroin
thence to the upper navigable waters of the
Missouri river.
With these aids the. enterprising citizens
of the west are now ready 10 commence the
trade. In two years they would have it in
operation, and would begin a revolution in
commerce which would clue!, the drain
of gold and silver from the United States,
and revive upon the banks of tbe Columbia
and Missouri tile wonder* of Tyre a.id I’nl-
nivra, of Memphis and Ormus.
’Without that aid, tiie same revolution
will be eventually accomplished.
The valley of the Mississippi is filling up
with people. In the year CidOits weight
may be felt In the councils of the Republic.
A system of commerce may then be estab
lished, adapted to the geographical position
of the United States, bottomed’ upon ils
resources, and free from interruption Iro n
the arms nod the intrigues of European
powers. The island of Cuba may tlien he
occupied, because ilia the key to the Gulf
of Mexico, and because it will furnish coffee
to the Republic. The empire of Mexico
may become a commercial all)*, or a province
because from thence alone can gold and sil
ver be derived. The trade of India may be
carried tin upon the I’aciflc ocean, the Co
lumbia and the Missouri, because on that
route it will be free from the interruption ol
European powers, will have a shoit and di
rect transport, ami will be bottomed on the
furs and peltries exported from .America.—
The Atlantic states may furnish most of the :
manufactured articles now received Iriuiil
at one moment lie is hoard ofaf
Brighton, the next in the neighborhood
of Windsor, and at another visiting hi*
country relations. One account say*,
that ho has a frigate and two sloops of
war, t oady at his call to tako him to Han
oi or, if his nflairs with the t{uccn should
conic to the worst.

scended that part of the Oconee river) came
down from Putnam county through the

gretted, that while the. navigation uhovc and
below lias been greatly improved, nothing
has been done to remove the obstructions to
boating nearly opposite the town, between
Rousseau’s Bridge and the present landing.
The Savannah Georgian of the 81st ult.
says, “ commerce is again (and by magic a* it
were) reviving. The number of vessel* which
have arrived, together with the. number of
passengers, those of our citizens who have

“ In a conversation with Mr. Gallatin this

the direct tradu uf the two countries must

SPAIN'.
W e have it from such authority as ea-
lilies u* of tbe fact, that the King of Spain
has ratified the treaty with the United

we are also satisfied Unit the ratified trea

other bulwark of liberty is erected.—
This morning ut half past 10 o’clock, the
elegant ship of the line, the 1>lju\vai\k,
embraced her destined clement amidst
the roar of cannon anil musketry, the ac
clamations of thousands of anxious spec
tators, and the inspiring sound of martial
music.—Not an accident of any kind oc
curred during the anxious moments of
preparation for this cheering scent—nil
was perfect system and regularity, and
she glided with the gracefulness of n
Swan into the watery element.
Wo may congratulate our country on
the acquisition to its naval force of one
of the finest and bustships that over float
ed. This is no assertion of our own, luit
the opinion of the most experienced
judges. The Delaware is of the largest
class ofships which have been construct
ed for our navy, to which there are only
two others ofthe same size yet built, the
Ohio and the Noith Carolina ; mid uc
mention it to the honor of Mr. Francis
Crick, the Master Carpenter, and his
Assistants, that she is in several respect*
more perfect (a* far as a comparison can
be drawn between specimens which
might be held up a* models of naval ar
chitecture to tbe world) than either of

The scene which this interesting occa
sion conjured into view was grand and
enlivening beyond any thing we have av

verdant gruiiud and clustering trees—-nf*
