one dammed up, by the united stand of the Columbians, and turned the storm to the east, and all the maritime wars would have been in Europe, for Britain, as she wanted our produce then more than ever, would have respected us for our union, for the sake of our trade to whip Bonaparte with, which union the devil would never disturb, consequently our flag would have been waving in all parts of the world, and our people enjoying peace and equal prosperity during all the wars of Bonaparte, and possibly overthrow Bonaparte, George the third and all the kings of Europe; but instead of so glorious a union, New-England must rebel against our first agricultural embargo, New-England could not stand neutral, as Washington told her, but must rejoice in the devil's war, and not engage in the Columbian war their same rebellion made, but submit to British maritime tyranny, acknowledge all her laws and her kings, and forsake our farmer's independence and liberty, for which our bloody revolution was undergone to get rid of a hidden warfare which is perpetual where civil kings are acknowledged, for the wicked rule, and the people mourn. A war more oppressive than sword and blood, for the people are filled with kings, aristocratical placemen, crying out peace, peace, when there is no peace where they are, and the cry lasts long as kings last, for making slaves submissive to royal masters, that they may continue their oppression, which they call government forever, really nothing more than a crazy aristocracy, of endless broils and discontented slavery, of continual war and misery.

The nature of warfare among humans is such, that without an obeyed government to prevent it, that if a superior has an advantage, he will make use of it. There is no honor in human commercial power. Hu man power is like bull's horns, always in use to the end for which they seem answerable. The British irony navy have now an advantage, not only to intimidate the coward, but to enforce the weak mind, vessels without guns are like sheep without horns, but what now must Columbia do, for evading British maritime vengeance? The lion that cannot devour is like a lamb. Union is like innocence in the top of the tree, laughing

at the furious mouth of folly beneath. Our distant Columbian union is not in all the British power, for power is on the side of union, confusion to the devil, notwithstanding all the British cannon of the seas. Britain must first give her own subjects freedom on seas, before she can conquer a freedom's heavenly union on land. Ourselves are our worst of enemies, look at home for salvation abroad, hold out to Britain a pattern of justice, and her own subjects forsake her. The degeneracy of the British aristocracy, augments rapidly the force of freedom's COLUMBIAN UNION. The lost state of man being of such a nature, that wherever salvation is offered, and by them known all will flee. Hold out Columbian protection, and whole armies are absorbed, all will flock over to our arms, if they were but godly, victory is not to the visible strong devil, but to the invisible God of true justice.

An injured republic, disdaining the foul practices of its aristocracies, in the black cause of kings, whose practice is oppression and manstealing, against his will, and unexpectedly arrested from his dear friends and home, to pine and die a dreadful death in unheard of dungeons, as thousands of Columbians, now dwinlling out their days in confinement, which alone calls from God a holy war, for the punishment of such aristocrats, as well of England as in Columbia, lost in rebellion to their God, from every sense of justice. Is it not the will of a just God, to conquer wretches of such unpardonable wickedness. Whatever may be the excuse of the guilty arrayed up for justice, who cries wicked war, wicked war, as the rogue damus the jury on trial, the crime must be blotted from the bar of revenge, the arms of national innocence is only laid down with retribution,

It is an incurable injury to Columbia, for Britain to maintain the practice of impressing even her own subjects, for in doing which a similarity of language, will be all the evidence wanted, for the decision of her maritime courts of injustice, for we are all English, and the whole Columbian nation as well as not only her seamen will soon share the fate of British wretched victims at home, and black slaves of Africa abroad,

which she sold in all countries, whose fate is no worse than those of our daily impressed seamen, a few years only of non-resistance and passive obedience, to the British clandestine edicts of rebellion, will be wanted for making slaves of all the Columbian whites, as she has of African blacks, get the fire kindled and it ras rapidly, and our liberties is soon gone, when the woction of the southern blacks, as well as all wates of Columbia, will only require complete tice, being executed against British false nobles, as has been the fate of royal France. No African slaves would have ever existed in America, had the foul royalists of Britain, and her aristocratical associates of Spanish and French rebellion, been faithful to their God, no human merchandize would have been thrown into Columbia as slaves; but her avaricious cruisers of disobedience at home and in New-England, could no more be checked from running to extremes with their commerce, than disobedient Massachusetts could obey an embargo act; that their inconsiderate avarice and ambition, shall prevent them from running their whole country into the like merchandize and slavery, for as anxious as they show their disposition, to have Britain keep up her manstealing trade, they add to the fury of its destruction, was the present administration of godly justice, to admit of the iniquity.

If the British subjects are enticed by the invitation of liberty, to flee to a Columbian assylum, for the recovery of their rights, so much the more inconsistent to justice and equity, is the practice of impressment, for sailors will always flee to such nations, as respects their rights. But where a nation is oppressive and tyrannical to their sailors, as the British are, very few are voluntarily recruited from their own nation; a nation like Britain always at maritime war, make their sailors fare proportionably harder, than such nations who respect their just rights; a nation respecting the rights of all its citizens, not only affords sailors amply for its vessels, but more than is wanted to carry on a proper commerce, for balancing its manufacturing and agricultural business; but the British nation being a manufacturing nation and not an agricultural one,

P

raises less seamen, and her number of vessels being se much advanced, beyond all her possible power of manning them, is the grand reason as wicked as it is, that she carries on manstealing from other vessels, to man her own, overwhelming weapons of usurpation, from her own citizens as well as from the common citizens of all nations.

All kinds of unjust advantages, of whatever name or nature, any one or more nations get over others, by whatever means of clandestine war and rebellion, against their God and his people of other nations, are the wickedest of all sins, for it is sin in the greatest scale.

Was there no rebellious persons among republics, no parties there would be, whose bone of contention is the favor of kings, but freemen would only inquire, is this, or is that man to be chosen, for the protection of freemen? but so long as all men are legislators, division and rebellion against the majority, is the fate, because the conceit of the deluded, is superior to the wisdom of the chosen; one act never suits all office hunters; a shower waits not for all haymakers. Every law of restraint to the avarice of foreign commerce, for which all law is wanted, is always obeyed by christians, but disobeyed by sinners; government was never for any other use than for the regulation of trade, to check that broad road to ruin, to which foreign commerce ever tends.

Government is the simplest thing in nature, so simple that fools might understand it. Even the most dejected beasts, govern themselves, far more regular than the cunning aristocrat; for the wild beasts, are never lost and harassed like man. Let aristocrats have their own head, unopposed by republicans, and they immediately destroy themselves and all others besides. And the whole difficulty of governing man, arises from trade being not properly regulated by science. If trade between the parties, was regulated by the interest of the labourer, who produces all things to sell, it would be the domestic trade of order and equi ty; but irregular trade is the foreign commerce of the robbing ruin of idle speculators, it is equally foreign in

the same neighbourhood, the same as though carried on with the most distant city. Foreign commerce forever consists in rebellion, because it is foreign to the rights of all men; whereas from domestic commerce, all have their artists, and all enjoy their equal rights, and trade is then every where, equally advantageous to

all.

Let commerce have its own natural course, unthecked by the governiug voice, of all the agriculturers of the world, and so long as there is more than one nation, and allowing the individuals of the different nations, to carry on trade together, without any restraint, by either agricultural government; the number of traders will at first increase, and times will be good, and all will thrive, but soon the number of merchants lessen, rogues thicken, few will get rich and the many get poor, necessity put on the armour, and the club of the poor will defend the rich, the richest will offend the poorer with the force of the needy, till at last only one great false royalist with his weapons, and one city will exist on the globe.

Whereas on the other hand, regulate trade by go vernment, corresponding with the natural wants and mutability of the different nations, and different individuals, according to the agricultural interest, and the speculators of each nation, being obedient unto the will of the majority, of each others tillers; order and harmony will prevail, and every sea and country will be covered with domestic commerce, and manufactories will be every where.

Each nation will be like the happy family, obedient unto the faithful parent, whose produce will be in the best order, sold for the best price, and the avails will equally feed, clothe and enrich all his family; and such a government will multiply and replenish the earth, with the necessary sustenance of life, as well as with equal people.

The government of an obeyed nation, derived from the will of the majority of all annually elected, is a hea venly guardian and protector of each other's rights, like the prudent parent whose government is simple, and the laws few; but if the government is derived from fo
