• V days in a year, and his com- i
, u .yon Jhtk lts>’ 545 l*,c Argus says,! \
fh.f two hundred dollars A man of!,
, . 4l» !0 3 ca;»u. hf and of a correct Kng-J
|i,4, education is thought to tx- fit for a!
j^ i.-e at Probate. How correct this
pinion may i>c, I shall not enquire.
Now for Judge Sedgwick '1 h rough
t the f A>mmonwe.;!di there are held1
; ,.y.seven regular terms of the Su
rrem Judicial Court : in many of the
rot-nt’c* there arc invariably adjourn
ments, making at least thirty-three
lerms in a year. Seventeen, of these
te’nib may be supjxjsed to be a fort
jvei't each ; the other sixteen, at least
0iu> week each, making three hundred
d >vs, during which some of the Justic
es are io the act of holding Court. But
us one justice may hold a court for the
t;id of Jury causes, while three or
mot e justice# are holding a cour t in a
notht r county, trying questions of law,:
it follows, that each of the Said Justices
would not be actually employed during
three hundred days ; at the least calcu
lation, however, each justice must pass
om hundred and fifty days inthe Court
house. More than this, they must
travel from one extremity of the Com
monwealth to the other. Judge Sedg
wick is liable to travel from Berkshire
countv to Castine in the county of
Hancock, a distance of four or five hun
dred miles ; and last fall actually did
hold all the courts in the district of
Maine. Thus, in addition to the time
a Judge is actually in court, if we calcu
late the time he is travelling from one
county to another, the sum cannot be
less than two hundred days. Consider
ing the time and expence necessary,
and actually incurred by our present
Judges to qualify them to discharge
the duties of their highly responsible
offices ; the expence they are unavoid
ably subjected to, while on the circuit;
can any one capable of judging, say this
compensation is too great ? v\ 1 tie at
home with their families, if they do
their duty, all their time will be occu
pied in examining the laws and differ
ent cases, that may be applicable to ca
ses to be decided at the ensuing term.
A judge of the Supreme Judicial Court
in this Commonwealth has not a single
day out of the year to provide for his
family. He must wholly depend on
his salary—And yet, this candid writer
in the Argus, compares the compensa
tion of these Judges with that of the
Judges of Probate. As there can be
no comparison between the magnitude
of these respective offices, nor of the
burthens they impose : so neither can
thtre he any just comparison between
their respec compensations. And
this was the opinion of the framers of
our constitution as well, as of the first
legislature under it, who granted the
Judges of the Supreme Court their sal
aries in the first instance. As to the
jury law, it will be in time t® censure
our present legislature for repealing it,
when they shall have repealed it.
The law creating the county Attor
nies is repealed. But all the county
attornies, appointed under Gov. Sulli
van’s administration have been by the
courts continued in office. Does this
savour of that invincible bias to appoint
federalists to office, of which this demo
crat accuses the judges, who are fede
Talists. Even the Attorney of this coun
ty has been re-appointed by the Court
of Common Picas.
But to prove that democrats will find
fault, even when there is the greatest
cause for praise, see how the snarler in
the Pittsfield Sun condemns the ad
ministration of Mr. Gore, because it
"has made a law prohibiting the curren
cy of out-state Bank notes under five
dollars, done expressly to shield our ci
tizens front imposition by counterfeits.
But because Berkshire bounds on the
state of New-York incommodes them,
Jiot having the liberty to take bills of
the New-York banks under five dollars
they therefore, as this Writer says have j
Associated and agreed to take the for
bidden bills, and hence from the abuse
of a highly beneficial law he argues the
inutility of it. RUSJL ICUS.

’I cannot well dismiss the subject ofgtne
i truth, without noticing iwo particular
branches, which, though implied In the pre
ceding remarks, yet deserve a more distinct
consideration. These are sincerity and Jidel*
tfj’. Their indispensable importance to the
due administration of government, none
* '•til deny. Beginning then with the first,
*incen+y * let us observe,that it '•» opposed to
hypocrisy in all its camehon-like colours,
*nd serjientine forms and contortions. In
stead of making any mere professions of pat
holism, or political friendship, it is rather [
cautious about a frequent and full expres-1
*i')n of this Sent'mem, at least in words,!
even when Hunt genuine and ardent. For
the existence of lids, as w ell as every other
'urinous a lection, it directs you to the ten
'»uro: a man's conduct, as the only test that
®a;» justify t.’ie smallest dependence.
Infatuated freemen ! it this be not a soli
•cism—H iw long shall wt see you content
e<‘ to leed up m the breath of false hopes, J
l empty promises, tiished and served up t
I4/ pretended “ friend* of the people.”
1 »ve you njt Heard boasting enough oi an
• •■fKiuis ts ic attachment to your interest, to
pn' y a <p-y\ you;- gu.*rd ? But, I forbear *— ;
v*V <os--Vvi' gieat Hie temptation, ‘
i
'o to grow wirni ; but rather !o preserve
he c.iim and deliberate manner with which
this discussion was commenced. My only
new has been, in this par agrapli, toimpre»s
Lhe idea, that the very bustle and fever of
public spirit affords a rational ground for
suspicion
Scarcely any thing is more obvious, or of
lenei* made the subject of remark, than the
fact, that a hypocritical friend is worse than
an open enemy. When an adversary takes
the field before our eyes, we have a fair op
portunity far providing the means of defence.
Hut, the man who speaks hraceably to his
ntighbour, %»Lilc war is i« his heart, may do
incredible mischief, before his conduct shall
excite the smallest alarm. If this subject
possess great ik. manifest importance in the
limited affairs of individuals, what interest
must it gather from being applied to the
concerns of society ? Deception is the same,
in Nature, wdiaiever be the circumstances
which accompany it, but is more or less en
hanced hy the different consequences which
it mv lives Now it is easy to discover, that,
where a multitude are deceived in the high
est objects cf their present existence.the
result must be far more pernicious, than i
cases which affect merely the commerce of
private life. The illustrious king of Israel
nfien experienced the malignant nature ot
hypocrisy in those who surrounded hia per
son and throne. He was disgusted in con
templating its hideous image i he suffered
from feeling its destructive influence. He
has left a portrait of his mind on the occa
sions, for the instruction of posterity. It is
calculated to excite a just abhorrence of that
monster composed of flattery and falsehood ;
and gives at the same time a lively impres
sion of lhe amiable and sublime virtue, sin
cerity. "For it was not an open enemy that
reproached me, then I could have borne it,
neither was it lie that hated me, that did
magnify himself against me, tl n I would
have hid myself from him. But t was thou,
a man, mine equal, my guide, j d mine ac
quaintance We took sweet cou tel togeth

company. The words of his i mth were
smoother than butter, but war was in his
heart ; his words were softer than oil, yet
were they drawn swords. But thou, O God,
fthaK bring them down into the pit of de
struction, bloody and deceitful men shall not
live out half their days.” KLCLUS&.

FOR THE GAZETTE.
\Tr. Shirley,
IF ‘ Aristides’ had attemptedtodemon
strate the fallacy of my objections to a sys
tem of bankruptcy ; it might have been ne
cessary for me, in reply , to have adduced
some arguments in their support. But so
ob oush do the most serious evils, mention
ed .n my communication, result from tlie a
doption of a system of bankruptcy, that lie
has thought prop r to pass them over with
out comment. 1 shall therefore in this pur
sue my former method of reasoning, with
out particularly noticing the subject matter
of his communication, or the manifestly un
charitable spirit in which, it was written.
If I know the desires of my own heart, they
are for the relief of the unfortunate poor—
And will venture to hazard the presumption,
that, let * Aristides’ go as far as he will, to
accomplish so desirable an object, I will go
further. Yet I cannot, in conscience, advo
cate a law, which will enable the dishonest
to practice villany at will with impunity.
True the law has it penalties—but their be
ing enforced depends entirely on the oath
of the person taking the benefit of the law—
And is it not obvious that the person, who
is base enough to conceal, from his honest
and bona fide creditors, property, which in
equity belongs to them, will at the same
lime cover his turpitude with an oath. W are
such law en.icted, that class of our citizens,
who are insolvent, would be very small,
co:h| :«re4 with the number, that would lake
advantage of ii — When the national bank
ru t system was in operation many became
bank opts who have since accumulated
wealth, f uSicient, at least to discharge their
dents ; (w!it ther from .» concourse of tbr
tuna* events, <»r from a ca; ital concealed,
I n u unable to shy)—but the disposition to
remunerate their creditors has been want
ing—Some few instances there are of men,
wm, alter having been declared oaiiKrupts,
V» ive repaid tm ir creditor. —And these are
the men, for whom such a law might with
safetv and propriety be made.—The pi opos
eil c in (if considered areal benefit) is not
a equal law —It does not affoid equal ad
v am age to different classes of citizens.
The merchant, the trader, the speculator, are
to receive all its benefits ; while the poor
fanner who is equally indigent and deserv
ing, may be harrassed,. and op pressed with
out remedy—Die poor labourer, how is he
assisted by this law ? If, ‘ Aristides* doubts
the truth of my assertion, that * the whole
nation was convinced of the inexpediency
atnJ impolicy of the national bankrupt law’
and requires other proof, than the universal
sentiment of people uninterested and unpre
judiced, every day expressed ; I would re
fer him to the doings of the national legisla
ture in 1803 — He will there perceive, that
thejre weie buf thirteen in the House of Re
presentatives opposed to its repeal; and but
twelve ill the Senate. Was it Virginia that
effected such a unanimity in Congress ? No,
it a thorough conviction that the law was
radically and intrinsically base—The south
ern States were not more heartily disgusted,
than the northern. It was a member from
Massachusetts that first moved its repeal—
It is true that the * English have for many
vears emluted a svstem of Bankruptcy,*—But
this circumstance will have hut iiule weight
when placed in competition with that of nor
own nation’s having made a.i exjienment of
tne measure and found it deficient. It has
»een urged that the experiment made by !
onr own country was not & fair one. Be that
as it may ; it was a convincing one—A he
law was to have expired by iu own limita
tion in about 18 months, when it w *s repeal
ed j but so overwhelming was the current of
(tuptflir opinion against it, thai it became ne
1
eessvy to e»n«th U a* once—And it was tie*
stroved almost without a Iriend 1 conclude
with ooserving thut the sentiments I have
expressed in this and a fVnit-r commuuica
tion, are offered without prejudice or par.
tiality fur 1 shall not gain oi lose one cent by
the passage of the propost d law
HONESTUS.
dj’We are authorized in saying that the
sentiments advanced in two communications !
in the lu9t Freeman's Friend, relative to an i
insolvent act, are by no means co incident j
with the f .elings and opinions of the insol
vent debtors of this town. They deprecate
the idea of such heavy charges as ve bro’i
forward against our Legislature and many
respectable gentle m* n of ‘he Federal party.
