During what's known as the XYZ Affair, President Adams sent diplomats to France for the purpose of attempting to negotiate peace with France. The end result was the Treaty of Mortefontaine.
The XYZ Affair in 1797 was handled by the then President John Adams by sending three diplomats to France to negotiate with the parties involved. The French demanded a bounty to be paid first, but the United States refused. Two of the men went home. The third stayed behind and ended the argument.
That was France in the XYZ Affair of the 1790s.

Sending a peace mission to France brought the full fury of the Hamiltonians against Adams. In the campaign of 1800 the Republicans were united and effective, the Federalists badly divided.
