FOR THE GAZETTE OF THE UNITED STATES.
Mr FENNO,
Do give the Aurora Company a jog respecting the late treaties of peace with the Indian Kings; and also with the Emperor of Morocco—as these subjects may afford an agreeable change, or serve at least to illustrate the hackney'd observations respecting the misconduct of Jay and the 20 Senators. Treaties between Republics and Despots do not lose their malignity, from becoming numerous. At the rate France and the United States are going on, they will soon not only be at peace, but in friendship with all mankind—This is abominable.
"LEGION."
