ly nations send their ministers into republics on no 0ther business than to make reparation for past injuries, but who never satisfies the injured republic.

The enlightened age so far advanced as to result in the event of the two continental revolutions, by oppression exciting to action every political mind, the republican to push forward for freedom, and the aristocrats to oppose to the aid of kings with all their power; that while the distant revolution of France was going on, the eye of Columbian spectators had nothing to do, but to look on and rejoice according to their good or evil hearts. Hence arose from their words and action, a knowledge of distinction of honest men from rogues, consequently the leaders of the two great parties of Columbia became designated in congress, by their acts, arguments and actions, which become a lesson for the common people to study out, who were their friends and who their enemies,which this crisis is to decide.

As republican principles have no other views, than such as are consistent to peace with freedom, and to obtain which without war if possible; the present administration rather than go to war with Britain, bore for seven years all her tyrannical aggressions, under her edicts of destruction, during all which time did every thing to ward off the impending blow; yielded to every thing but recolonization; minister after minister, at a vast expence sent to solicit a reconciliation; but haughty Britain yielded nothing; and our solicitations, and the mildest of all petitions, were answered but with the haughtiest and blackest of insults; a history of which would be a history of lies and crimes; which lasted together with her tories among us aiding the ruin, for more than seven years before we declared, to our peo ple the 19th of June, that a British war of extermination was clandestinely raging, for destroying us, our elected administration, government and independence which Washington established.

While on the other hand, while Washington was extolling the French republic as in his answer to Adet the Hamiltonians annulled the French treaty, and went slily to war with France, unbeknown and undeclared to the republican world, and destroyed the

Freedom of the press that devils would rule, as soon as Washington retired in 1797. All this was done in 1798 one year from PEACE, to WAR with a republic in Europe; are these men peace lovers for pleading peace in the ears of the dupe; if they were in power would they not do just so again; give up Louisiana, Canada and these states, and all colonies to legitimate kings, ourselves to Britain, and then would we not have to continue in war with Britain as Britain always has been forever a stranger to peace, as before the revolution we know we were, will it do to trust such warhawks in power; who go to war in one year, instead of waiting seven or even twenty years in hopes of peace. Oh friends, beware of tories! Washington, had he lived, notwithstanding French aggressions,would he even in twenty years declared war against the French, to overthrow its republic. Would he not have sent a Gerry, and minister after minister, to seek out the devil of recolonization, between the republicans of two sister republics he so highly extolled, for continuing them our friends and freedom's magnanimous allies, that the republicans of both continents may persevere in freedom. But oh deluded, this on your account is not the case!!! The devil pretends that Britain is now our magnanimous ally; how is Britain magnanimous now, more than when Washington at the revolution was compellsed to thrush his sword into the bowels of her oppression; Britain has not reformed; no revolution has taken place in Britain for the government of republicanism. But her same old rusty aristocracy king and devil yet remains a curse to the unchanged land of steady habits of corruption. Yes and that aristocratical cor ruption has in the absence of Washington, became the reinstated personal ally of the secreted tories among us. Preaching up the devil's magnanimity, when all the national magnanimity that ever existed, was always a stranger to all but republics. What is understood by magnanimity nationally is charity, and not national conflagration, and paupers of slavery. Our Saviour was magnanimous, because he was a friend to the poor and weak, but British magnanimity is a friend to

Bb

the powerful and the devil, thus it is anti-magnanimity. No sooner than the return of peace after the revolution, tories recommenced their corruption, and were they not too sly for farmers to comprehend, when foreign office-lovers, and not generally farmers were thick, perhaps ten outs to one in, farmers being more attentive to their fields than to their public safety, few attending elections, as in all ages the inattention of farmers is always the road to slavery, as all countries have been ruined, and farmers retiring in peace to their fields of labor after the revolution, cared not for news papers on account of the cost, not dreaming of the least danger. When while on the carpet was Peter Porcupine's vassal's presses, weaving and circulating newspapers filled with indirect and clandestine cunning, incomprehensible even to politicians, and farmers who happened to go to meeting, thought that if they voted as Peter Porcupine directed, they were voting for the servants of God, while their votes were an invisible engine or ladder on which roguish wolves or tories in heart climbed to power, thus the devil went ahead unseen, in that peace which the people thought they were enjoying with safety. The sly aristocrats were in ac tion immediately after the revolution while the farmer was sleeping as he thought in a safe peace, consequent. ly in neglect and inattention; his rights as secured in his new constitution, he thought would save his liberty without acting, so he never even stirred to oppose sly growing devil which always rises up in posterity and steps directly into the shoes of the achievers of glory) while honest farmers who ought to be watchful every moment of their lives as christians warn us, and as Washington told us to be jealous of our liberties. But say office-lovers behind the farmers backs, you assist me and I will assist you to such and such farmers votes, telling them, that themselves are the friends of free dom, but when rogues get in they never pass a single plain and honest act to favor the mechanic and farmer, but all their acts are for their ruinous foreign commer cial kingly self, for the assistance of each other to all the loaves and fishes of the sea, not only of office Lut

that

of property till themselves are masters, to the exclusion of the rights of the common farmers, even to the land he possesses for the want of a voice in that government which would render the blessings of the sea and manufactures to the labors of all districts and countries, were tories not to usurp by deception their right.

For which exploits in favor of the devil, the editor of the Peter Porcupine really William Cobbet, before, he reformed from his wicked ways, Mr. Windham of the English parliament declared therein, that William Cobbet had earned a statue of gold for services done England in America. Curiously he twisted and turned honesty into roguery under the federal name, and which name aristocrats assumed instead of that of republicanism, for no other purpose than that it is so charmingly applicable to kings; for devils can confederate to destroy liberty as well as honesty, men confederate to relieve from oppression.

But of all iniquity after the establishment of our constitution the sly cunning of Hamilton and other a-t ristocratic lawyers, was so deeply and secretly concerted, that even Washington, much more Adams, could not in the time of it discover their delusions, and no hoBest politician could then tell their untried hearts, for the torrent had not become effectually before us; till when the devil's cloven foot fully appeared in practice, which dared not to act or show the fiend, in broad daylight till after Washington retired and Adams elected president, he being less influential and perhaps less wise than Washington; they then hampered the press of light, when full swing went the devil passing kings faws of darkness over a rejected community for the want of a free press which they enslaved, but honest. Adams was too honest and too wise, to be carried entirely off by the devil. And as iniquity is its own detector notwithstanding the concealed cunning of a Hamilton with all his cunning lawyers, Fickerings and elequence, honest Adams appointed good old Elbridge Gerry of his native state, as a minister to France, that the situation of the French cabinet as it respected America might be seen in its true light; when as soon as Gerry informed president Adams the truth of our cou

cerns with France, Adams dismissed disgraceful Ti mothy Pickering from his councils, who being secretary of state formed the organ of communication with fo reign nations, abused the power and acted secretly in favor of northern commercial British Hamilton, and threw us into a foreign commercial war, instead of doing justice in the domestic defence of his country's agricultural rights, thus went ahead the devil's offending ruin.

Hamilton notwithstanding he was the greatest foreign lawyer, perhaps ever found on the historic page, with all his aristocratical associates of NewEngland and nobility of Europe, became defeated of all his British royal entangled stuff; and which shows that Columbia was never intended for kings, for as the new world's Franklins, Washingtons and Jeffersons had been, they still are, and forever will be God's pe netrating politicians, always ready and able to unriddle the devils ever so sly plans of foreign destruction.

Quere Those who call themselves federalists,. extol Hamilton and our constitution equally to the heavens, yet Hamilton plead with all his power and voted directly against it, and acted for a kingly form of government, he wanted the president to be termed governor who with the senate be kept in power for life, for which he acted with all his eloquence, while the great doctor Franklin, ten thousand times wiser than was. ever ten thousand Hamiltons, plead against his rotten heart, and for a constitution still more republican than we now have it, yes by far against having a senate and governor in for life, from which we had just revolted.

Experience told honest Franklin, Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Gerry, Hancock and Adams, and all real republicans to act with all their wisdom, all their days against these devils, who wanted to kick us out of one red hot frying pan into another.

The great and good man dector Franklin, so much celebrated like Washington by all for his great wis dom, it may be said was the principal means by which we made out to get any constitution, he made the last motion and speech in the convention, which required. that all the deputies present should agree to sanction.
