TO THE F.DITO*. .OF THE tONtON TIM".
Sir,
I believe von to be too wise to consider
yourself ns infallible, and too liberal to be
offended by contradiction. A paragraph
appeared in your paper of Tuesday, on the
right which this country has to prohibit a-
ny neutral intercourse with France, or the
countries under her dominion, to which I
aw by no means disposed to accede. As I
have not The Times by me, I cannot enter
into an examination of your arguments in
detail. I shall confine myself to combat
your conclusion.
When any too nations happen to be at
war, each has the right of prohibiting, in
its own way, the importation of the manu-
factures and commodities of the other; and
the mariner, of whatever country he be,
who infringes the laws of the country at
which he arrives, subjects his vessel to all
the penalties which those Uws impose.—
Nr fear
of an accident) provided it would answer the'
same purpose of defence.
It may beargued by some that such a law
would make no difference generally, inas-
much as we are all growing out of military
date in succession, and each would fare and
share alike in his turn ; but this I think is
not a fair calculation, unless we anticipate a
perpetual war. When a great -work is to be
performed, great force is necessary—and a-
greeably to an old adage, many hands make
light work.
My "wealthy ancient readers must not pre-
sume, from these remarks, that I wish to re-
lieve myself at their expence—far from it.
The blow I aim at them, endangers my own
knuckles ; having counted more than 45
winters I am exempt both from military du-
ty and military tax, by the present la>v.
1 know not whether there is, or is not, a
majority of our honouiable assembly at this
time, exempt from military duty, by age ;
nor if there is, whether it would be possible
foi even the overruling passion ofselfinterest
itself, in so virtuous a body, to obstruct the
passage of such a law,in despite of legisla-
tive discretion! provided they conceived, the
public good required it.
GUSTAVUS. .
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 26.
A letter from a ger.tlemas at the Canton-
ment near St. Louis, dated October 17,
1807, to his friend in Pittsburgh, says—
" The Majidan Chief, (who accompanied
capt. Lewis on a visit to the city of Wash-
ington) left this place on his return to his
nation in April last, escorted by Ensign
Prior of the United States army, and a de-
tachment of 15 men, together with interpre-
ters, hunters, &c. Mr. Chateau with two
trading boats & 30 men, accompanied them.
They proceeded without interruption or mo-
lesutiuivaliQut 1600 miles, and within aoo
miles of the Manrlan nation,when they were
attacked by the Recari Indians and defeat-
ed, with the loss of 4 men killed, and 8 ot
10 wounded. They retimed to this place
on the 13th inst. and Mr. Prior (jives the
following account.—That they landed at a
Recari village, and, when unsuspicious of
danger, were attacked by a large party of In-
dians, supposed to be 700, most of them
armed with guns ; that they returned the
fire three times before they retreated to their
boats, and it is supposed, killed 2-0 of the e-
nemy, and that they were pursued 6 or 8
miles down the river, the Indians keeping
up a constant fire pn them.
" It is said that the Recari's are at war
with the Mandan's, and that it was their in-
tention to kill the Mandan chief.
' Mr. Prior adds, that from the best in-
formation he could collect there are about
300 Spanish soldiers with the Indians high
up the Missouri, and a great many more
were expected,and that they had built forti,
and were endeavouring to sour the mindset"
the indians against the United States."
