with the perusal of most of them - we
were sorry to find some irritating and
inflamatory pieces, particularly one, which
censures the Government of the United States,
for attempting to Treat with the Indians,
under British influence, ungenerously
branding the whole of that Nation with
the opprobious epithet of Cut Throats. - all
the officers, that we have as yet heard speak
upon the subject, make light of it, and
say, it is but little more than what, at
times, appear in their own prints -
whither it is really their contempt of
such scandalous pieces, or their politeness,
which will not permit them to give us
uneasiness, that makes them appear
so indifferent, is what I will not determine.
