So much fol the Noble Marquis : I shill now make a fe.ty cursory remarks on The Tihres itself, and con clude this letter by animalversions on the general tendency of Cie wiitings of V Lies. I have of!en been in doubt as to the politit al bias of The and wondered whether it was an impartial and independent journal, or a decided, though covert enemy to the executive power; but lately I have had every reason to fear the iatter, and in that , I had rather contend against The and its weekly supporters ; who at least coca e inanf!r!! - i'orward, and at once openly dee!are themselvc , .

In such cases, where the honour and reputation of fellow creature are at stAe, we should Only from }:roofs positive; and it' the Editor will give him v.ll the trouble attentively to peruse the American account 01 the engueentent, he will therein perceive that Captain DacttEs resisted as long as' his ship would swim, and that his having been overcome, was owing to his having to omlond with a vessel of superior force, mole numerously Manned, and, who knows, perhaps with sailors who had learnt to Conquer on board a British fleet. These remarks have so grown upon me as I wrote them, that f fear trespassing upon room, which I am certain might be much better occu pied in ycur . solumns.. I shall, therefore, contrary to my 175 intent lout at the commencement ofthis letter, say but a test words more to V ETTA. I will merely ask him to answer without equivc<ation, whether he be - a ►rue lover of his country, and if si‘, whether be thinks that by inflatniflg the public mind any goof.' is likely to ensue? At best. this is a - mere hypothesis, and iu making the expel invent, I would ask him, if be, and all tie veformers.

I trust much, it is title, to the good sense of the n..tion ; vet, as drops of water slowly, but ..'ontinualls repeated, will wear the hardest stone, so the constant clamours against the rulers of the country may so undermine the loyalty of the people, inflame the turbulent, give hopes to the interested, and handles to the inimical, ae• at length to level the fabric, which has stood for many years the pride and boast of every British heart,and the envy and admitation of every surrounding nation.
