Analysis of the Late Correspondence between Our Administration and Great Britain and France. With an Attempt to Shew What are the Real causes of the Failure of the Negociation. "Misera, dum cupit pacem, belli metu in bellum incidit" Florus. "Wretched administration! which, desiring peace, from a dastardly dread of war, plunged itself into the very war which it wished to avoid." "Cavendum slatem est, nequid fiat, quod prodat majorem favorem erga partem unam quam alteram, ne jesta detur parti unit de neutralitate non exacta servata, querela." "We should take care, that nothing by done which should shew more favour to one party than the other, lest we should give just cause of complaint that our neutrality is not observed."

Perpetual War, The Policy of Mr. Madison. Being a candid Examination of his late message to congress, so far as respects the following topics...viz. The Pretended Negotiations for Peace... The Important and Interesting Subject of a Conscript Militia... and The Establishment of an immense standing army of Guards and Spies, Under the Name of a Local Volunteer Force. "Tum"Jacobus Madison secundum Praeses"...gravior remediis quam delicta erant, suarumque legum auctor idem, ac subversor quae armis tu ebatur, armis amisity." Taciti Annalium Lib. III Liberally Translated "Then James Madison, a second time President, adopted a remedy for the wrongs of our seamen, infinitely more injurious to them than the evils which they suffered...he ordered out the militia, in contempt of that very Constitution of which he was one of the principal framers. In short, whatever he attempted to vindicate by arms, by arms he lost." By a New-England Farmer
