Dawis from ‘Briflol and Swanfey, in about 7 Weeks, by whom we have the foliowing ADVICES. In the Glocefler Fournal of November 15¢b are Ex trafis from Mr. Egatbeote's Letter to the Lord Magor, Aldermen, 5c. of the City of London, iz ewbich are the i Sentiments of this great Man, upon the Conce(fisme eubich O ‘8g,are Worw kx’un Be ahout to mak: at l!u tf:/m’.g Peace. \7&}1‘_}”;& relates to the Refiitationof Gorer, C\ swbich is teo long for tbis Paper. — Th: Paragraphs \ Jrelating to Newfeandiand and she Sugar Iflands, is as followns: =~ ~ .~y OTHING furely can equal our ~ generofity and charity, if there Jistruthin the preliminaries pub- lithed. A right of fithing in . our American feas for their home confumption, and an epportunity of enriching themfelves and augmenting their maritime power, by permitting them to e- re& ftages, &c. for curing baccolao for the ufe of Portugal, Spain and ftaly, which will enable them to drive us out of the fithery, is much too mean a prefent for the French King.....So trifling an offering is much be- neath the dignity of Louis le Grand. To render the m 1 prefent acceptable to him, it can be accompained with nothing Jefs than thofe valuable fugar iflands, whole whole produéts cannot be worth lefs than 1,000,000 l. fterl. perannumin France, to- gether with Goree. Which if we reckon the value of the Negroes, with all the other branches of that commerce, may reafonably be efteemed 1,000,000 I. fterl. more, inall TWO MILLION fterling per Annum. Alirich jewels worn from the crown ofFrance by that hard hearted, cruel, vindiétive, in- exorable robber, Mr. Pitt, who bearing an implacable hatred to Lewis the XV. for no better reafons than that Lewis the XVth, bore the fame implacable hatred toMr. Pitt’s Country, and had firft ftolen and feized fome of the jewels out of his royal mafter’s crown and was bent upon taking away all the reft.’s As no part of Mr. Pitt’s Conduc? bath been wmore warmly canvaffed, than bis ConnNEc- TIONS WITH tbhe CONTINENT ; #0r any Expreffion of bis more frequently animad- werted, than bis Affertion concerning AME- RICA’s BeinG conqQuerep 1IN GER- MANY ; we fPall bere prefent the Reader with Mr. Heathcote’s Explanation of 1hat Expreffion. f‘t_ilb‘ Expreflion was,if I am rightly in- . formed, That America can only be conquered in Germany.—~And where is the abfurdity or iniquity of this maxim ? Did Mt Pist ever avow, that {pending Britith blood and treafare in Germany, was the on- ly rnight way of conquering America? Dath not the expreflion imply plainly encugh, that proper meafuers would never be per- ' “mitted by fome perfons to be taken for the conqueft of America, unlefs the German war went hand-in-hand with it ? The ex- preflion is ambiguous, and mav be conftru- ed in the manaer it hath ; thatis, the only right way of conquering Amarica : but in this ambiguity confifts the great beauty of this ftroke of eloquence, and the perfect ikill of the fpeaker. At the time that he conveys, or rather infinuates, to the publick the neceflity heis under of fupporting the continental fyftem, he could not prevent, in order toinduce fome perfons to agree to ttempt the conqueft of America ; he ef- ' 23 22 & LE0EEEILUHS fe&ug]]y:gfiflds him{ if again®t any malici- ous eonftruéiion of hi words by thole, upon whofe fricadfhip he had perhaps little rea- fon to depend.
