THE INFLEXIBLE ENEMY OF TYRANNY. ON THE Peace between England and America. Botley, January 1, 1815. DEAR SIR,-When you, a few minutes after I was enclosed amongst felons in Newgate, for having written about the flogging of English Local Militia-men in the presence of German Dragoons, at the town of Ely, came to take me by the hand, and, looking round you, exclaimed, "Well! " I am seventy years old, but I shall yet ....;" when you " see [2 nuance until now; and, 3d, of the causes which produced the peace. When we have done this, the consequences of such a termination of the war will naturally develope themselves to our view. Happily this war has closed before its causes and its objects have been forgotten. We are yet within the recollection of every circumstance; and though I have, over and over again, stated them all, it is now necessary to recapitulate the material points, and to give them, if possible, a form and situation that may defy the power of time. All sorts of vile means will be used by those who have the controul of a corrupt press, to misrepresent to disfigure, to disguise, to suppress, upou this important occasion. 10 hirelings are raving with mortification at this grand event, the consequences of which they feel before hand. It is, therefore, incumbent upon us to place the whole of the matter in a clear light, and thus to do all that we are able to counteract their efforts. uttered that exclamation, little indeed did I hope that your prediction would so soon seem to be in a fair way of being fulfilled. The peace with America is certainly the most auspicious event that I have ever had to record, or to notice, since the first day that I ventured to put my thoughts upon paper. It opens to mankind a prospect of happier days. It has, by a stroke of the pen, blasted the malignant hopes of the enemies of freedom, baffled all their speculations, flung them back beyond the point whence they started in their career of hostility against the principles of political and civil liberty; burled them and their paragraphs, and pamphlets and reviews, and all the rest of their hireling productions, down into the dirt to be trampled under foot; changed their exultation into mourning, their audacity into fear. Let those to whom liberty and slavery are indifferent presed such men as they thought proper, FIRST, as to the cause of the war: though there had been several points in dispute, the war was produced by the impressment, by our naval officers, of men out of American ships on the high seas. The Republic wished to take no part in the European war, especially after Napoleon made himself a King, But she, at last, found, that, in order to avoid miseries equal to those of war, it was necessary for her to arm and to fight. We stopped her ships on the high seas, and our naval officers im talk about boundary lines, passages, fishing took them on board of our ships, compelled banks and commercial arrangements; you them to submit to our discipline, and to will look at the peace with very different fight, in short, in our service. The ground eyes; you will see in it the greatest stroke on which we proceeded to do this was, that that has ever yet been struck in favour of the persons impressed were British subthat cause, to which you have devoted your jects; and that we had a right to impress life; and struck, too, at a time, when almost British subjects, being seamen, find them every friend of freedom, except yourself, where we might. The Republic denied alstomed to have yielded to feelings of together our right to take persons of any despair. description by force out of her neutral A But, in order to be able fully and justly ships, unless they were soldiers or seamen to estimate the consequences of this peace, actually in the service of our enemy. But, we must take a review, 1st, of the cause perhaps, if we had confined our impress= of the war; 2d, of the causes of its conti-ments to our own people, she might not |
