There are two sorts of opposition, and two sorts of pride, the one innocent and the other rebellious; republicans may innocently oppose local justice, but an aristocrat will wickedly, knowingly and wilfully op-pose general innocence with force, if he cannot by delusion; wrong pride generates rebellious opposition; while innocent pride excites patriotic obedience; undeluded farmers are proud of their equals, and of their crops, and if christians, proud of their God; though. seemingly, farmers are hard to the poor individually, yet, collectively, they are the father of all their mer cies, with no respect to person of an unbounded people; for whose charity is without regard for part, but for whole; while the foreign aristocrat, is charitable only to the underlings of his neighbourhood, for his own po-pularity; he is proud of his superiority, of his underlings, of his bargains and of his palace, and power, chariots and human household, laziness, finery, luxury, superfluity, and of the devil, forever quarrelling and wrangling in war, opposite to government, agricultural right and humiliation. Republicans may innocently differ in opinion, concerning ways and means for conquering the devil, yet always agree in the general principle of right; while aristocrats are always in rebellion to the general principle of justice, wrangling and differing in secrecy, with themselves who shall be master, as well as with their God of equal rights.

There are two kinds of apparent minorities to one nominal majority, and two kinds of nominal majorities to one apparent minority; the democrats of Europe, though nominally in the minority, are really the majority; and the European aristocrats, who are their masters in royal palace to fools, are nominally the majori ty, yet they are really the minority. And though they

rob and oppress the democrats throughout Europe, and apparently pretend to govern, yet the very ignorant slaves of Europe, really govern their royal masters. Democracy although ever so much deluded or oppressed by robbers, has ever governed since the deluge; as much as a farmer's cattle governs their avaricious owner, or the negro slaves govern their masters; the farmer is compelled to delve through storms and mud to fodder and take care of his cattle, as a master is to the care of his indolent slaves, and foolish kings to keep his deluded subjects from rising in brilliant light, to the dethronement of crushing folly for the freedom of a shackled world of slaves. Who would all be able to take care of themselves, were they at liberty to learn the wisdom of God's glorious ways, thus democracy has always really governed the crazy avaricious aristocrat.

The opposition which now rises up in rebellion to the delegated power of the majority of their own votes, is this" artful and enterprising minority of the commu"nity" (which Washington tells of,) who are likely "in the course of time and things, to become potent “engines, by which cunning, ambitious, unprincipled “meu, will be enabled to subvert the power of the peo“ple, and to usurp for themselves the reins of govern"ment; destroying afterwards the very engines which "have lifted them to unjust dominion." And this cun-ning artful minority, penetrating Washington as plainly saw was then stepping directly into his shoes, which he was about to leave, as we now again behold the threatening cloud, and for no other reason did Wash-ington retain the presidential chair the last four years of his presidency, but to aid the people against the pending storm. But Washington could not always be president, at last retiring, the deluding usurpers rushed upon the forbidden throne, but they-destroyed their very engines which lifted them to unjust dominion; asthe devil is always a great self-destroyer, he hampered that very press whose unhampered freedom his cunning Hamiltons had first used, for a ladder to climb to power; and as soon as the devil and all his angels had got. fairly out of sight, put opake spectacles on the eyes of

their deluded, that the people could not see them stay there forever. But the poor devil destroyed the very engine, that is his great machine of deluded voters which boosted him to unjust dominion, and down came Hamiltonites, Pickeringites, and the whole mass of rot> ten hearts, as Washington foresaw and said they would. And now, since it is impossible for a king to exist in Columbia by the will of God, they are determined to try the power of the British sword, which shall cut and secure as it goes all the devil's delegated will, first NewEngland and then the rest, which the delusion of foreign commerce and false religion of the fast anchored isle and her gallies, shall entice to the cloud of rising darkness to keep what the devil gains, as the bulwark of our religion and king. And will not Washington's predictions prove true a second time in spite of the Bri tish sword P Did not the devil fall in Massachusetts? Though Connecticut delusion slighly construed into deluded permission only two thousand troops, to be kept on foot under the British sword of command, yet when Massachusetts, where wide opened democratic eyes were thicker, attempted to raise thirty thousand under the pretence that fish lovers should not starve under embargoes, but with which troops really to oppose their own elective government, for aid to the British preten ded government, and to augment the British military bulwark within the heart of our own country boldly to hold Chittenden a permanent office in rebellion to that justice which threatened punishment for his offences; as all aristocrats and kings are fond of permanent office, if not by delusion, by the sword, or both. Is this true federal republicanism? Because devils are the minority join our very enemies, so as together be the majority and draw the sword in foreign favor to crush the majority, as all eastern lords of iniquity have put kings on to the throne by the sword and held Europe in slavery, and pretend to be federals of our union, when really separatists in the grass to destroy us for the sake of being foreign masters. Oh shame to you sinnerswho lead the federal party.

Why do not the apparent minority of republicans of Connecticut, raise the sword in rebellion to God for

office, they have hung involved in priest craft nets of dreary insignificance this long time, like insects in the webs of spiders. Were it not for the constitution of the United States, which guarantees to every state a republican form of government, Connecticut would have been far more miserable, but her aristocrats dare as well die as to go visibly too far with the devil, least his cloven foot would be so plainly seen in the other states, as to hurt their mighty popularity. All the republicans do to get into office when in the apparent minority, is to expose the devil by fair argument to the deluded, they like Strong and Griswold, never withheld the militia, when Adams' Hamiltonites went to war against France, nor threatened to raise the sword of rebellion to a holy war, to keep aristocratical governors in office against a God of liberty, that they shall not be brought to justice by the people whom they entice astray; nor never did a republican knowingly oppose a holy war waged against kings for their liberties, but they have always acted against the clandestine wars of foreign king's rebellion; for which reason they would not fight against the French republic, or against their own liberties and for the British king; which republic Washington so much extolled, but they will always fight ngainst the clandestine wars and oppression of the most powerful nation on earth.

No clandestine warfare whatever, except the British privy orders in council, is more destructive to a republic, than searching and kidnapping their sailors from their vessels, by a mother kingly nation, and the want of dissimilarity of sailors, and such nation already attained to endless means for doing it, soon destroys national independence, for it soon leaves us without men and without vessels. The abuse of the seamen, though of awful calamity, is no more to be compared to that of tending national injury, than a mite to a mountain; for it is on the strength of the seamen, that Britain holds the dominion of the seas, which is the very destruction of our liberty, and which is the cause of all sin and slavery of the world. Had she no seamen, her vessels, great or small, could give her ungrateful nobles of maritime ruin, no power for laying waste our sea

board, our commerce, and our very liberty. Let the Columbian farmer hold out to the world, a Columbian protection to free trade and sailors' rights, that truest of all law of nations, sanctioned by all the republicans" of Europe, and energetically maintain it, a few years would sweep from the ocean that awful maritime danger over our seafaring blessings. Those who want Britain to impress the Columbian seamen, want the British maritime assistance to help them on to the American throne of British rebellion, to be durable masters for the existence of British nobles and American devils; while on the other hand, the world to know that sailors in Columbia are protected, their enterprising millions' and bravest best will fast seek the asylum, and flee from the maritime abuse of their Britannic bondage, and soon we preponder over the power of wrong, and God grant

us success.

Supposing two kingly nations, on equal footing as to vessels and seamen, one using the injustice of impressment from the other, and the other not, every seaman wrested from the latter counts two, and the bal ance soon preponderates, and the former soon gets the ascendancy upon the ocean, as Britain really has, tho' it was never the case with us, that we were ever equal to Britain, and God grant that we never shall be in maritime tyranny; yet if we don't take a determined and united stand, as a rock against that tyranny, guard all the weak spots, we are overcome by it, and our liberties lost. A great maritime human tyranny is like a pow." erful river, bursting through the weak spots of its dam; a united stand of a farmer's government, without weak spots, is like an iron dam agsinst the gulf stream. It is on the farmer's products that tyrants are made tyrants by robbery, was Canada united with the states, the shorter would require our dam, have it in the farmer's power unitedly to enforce an embargo over all their granaries, and we should never want to enact one; had we all obeyed our first embargo, while we were encouraging our own manufactories, we should have turned the British foreign trade of deception elsewhere, and preserved our liberties out of the reach of her tyranny. It would have been like a lake with several outlets, with
