V i *:e People of t/ir United States.
It w «originally intended, Ly the w er
< *»;< se paper*, to " unfold the histor),” a
v.-ell u* to " display the character,” cf
French lnfluerur upon the affidrs of the U
m«t< n Slat *s. This was orecisrly the pledge
which he gaye to ik Public. It was his
c-ie* t to examine in sucre sion the various
•*'suds and different dishes , r'the grer-t pol
i.ical entertainment whleh France has giv
en to the United S*".‘es—vb WJ es*/ue ad via
•a—foot the egg to the apple of Thomas
Jefferson’s noble feast of Embargo. But
the. ~ is a certain impatience and ardour in
the public mind which the writer must
suffer to influence his conduct, though he
will not suiter them to govern it. As a pub
lic writer, he knows his rights, and will
maintain them with a tVm and proud inde
pendence. The Public have their rights
also. They may manifest impatience, they
may exercise all the powers of criticism,
they may read or not read as they please.
But here they must stop. The writer will
listen to advice, but he will repel dictation.
Som * appear to require volumes in a mo
rn ut upon a subject which has required
the reflection of years in merely deciding
upon the proper mode to be pursued, and
every step in the progress of which, in his
own poor judgment, deman great delib
eration and great caution. Such shall be
disappointed. Such shall not be obey
ed. The author will, in this case, he gov
erned by one of the few Jeffersonian max
ims upon which lie now sets any value,
and will “ manage his own affairs in his
own way.” The cool judgment of the Pub
lic, however, will be greatly respected. In
deference to it, we now exhibit new, ex
traordinary, and most interesting informa
tion, to the American people.
Descending, then, at once, to the memor
able session of 1805—G, the reader’s recol
lection is recalled, for one moment, to the
(public) message of the President, Jeffer
a >n, at the commencement of that session.
It indicated, in terms the most unequivocal,
that the United Slates were on the eve of
war with Spain. Speaking of the injuries
received from that power, the message
said, “ Some of them are of a nature to be
met by force only, and all of them may lead
to it. I cannot therefore but recommend
auch preparations as circumstances call for.”
The message, indeed, abounded in that am
biguity of expression, and in that generali
zation of censure upon ” every belligerent,”
for which the lummons mind of that remar
kable man was distinguished. Spain was
particularly complained of—the genera!
censure upon ** the belligerents,” was evi
dently meant for Great [Britain—-but noth
ing was said of France. Mark this—net
one word p/ France ' Yet the President had
in bis pc^ession documents from General
Armstrong, announcing to him, in the most
perfect of all official forms, that as it re
spected the difficulties which appeared to
exi-t bet wen the American and Spanish rev
eminent*, there was in ('act, as Mr Randolph
soon after said in the H_»i i ot Representa
tives, '* no Spain.” Speaking of Spain a
rnong oilier matters, the President said,
“ Propositions for adjusting amicably die
boundaries of Louisiana have not been ac
ceded to.” In a private message soon after,
he said “ It i9 a policy of Spam to reserve
herself for events.” Yet this arch deceiver
knew that the reason why the boundaries of
Louisiana could not be adjusted with Spam
was that trance would not suffer Spam to
adjust them with the United States upon
any terms whatever l And he was guilty ot
xne most unprincipled conduct in telling
Congress (this he would not s-y to the A
rncncan people,and the world) that it was
The policy of Spain to reserve lierself tor
events, when his agents abroad luul inform
ed him that it was the policy of France to
reserve Spain for event*,’ (Tbe public raes
aago only three dnys after.) The M illustri
ous Jefferson,” The only man on earth of
whom the writer is at this time disposed to
sue., with severity, ami that he appeals to
his God for the truth of the assertion, tor no
private or personal reason, well knew that
font the very origin of the negociadons in
reference to the purcii?*e as well as boun
daries of Louisiana, the government of
Spain was suffered to take no step whatev
er without applying for the commands ot
France, and was in the constant habit, ate*
verv stage of the business, of sending to
know what those commands were,
facts which will not be denied by either of
our Ministers who have been concerned in
those negocialioiis, or ly tiicir p? is ate Hecre
taric*- And yet this Man oftne People—
tins President of the “ good old United
Mai’s”—told congress, in the private uies

4 th of July Proceedings.
WASHINGTON, JULY 6, 1810
THE anniversary of Indegendence
has been celebrated with the usual dis
tinguished honors. Salutes were fi
red ; and an oration was delivered in
the presence of the President of the U.
S. Heads of Departments, Gen. Wil
kinson,CiO\. Claiborne, 8ic. by Mr. Ro
bert Rolk.
About noon the spacious rooms of
the President were opened to a large
and brilliant assemblage of both sexes,
who partook of a liberal refreshment
provided.
The Heads of Departments, the
Russian Minister, Gov. Claiborne, Gen.
Wilkinson, and a numerous company,
dined at Long's hotel, Robert Brent,
Esq. presiding. The toasts on this oc
casion were loyal and courtly.—The
Russian Monarch wrcs complimented
by his French title, w the philanthropic
Emperor of the North.”—Count Rah
len gave u Perpetual friendship between
the United States and Russia."
The democrats dined at Lindsay's
hotel. Dr. J. M. Bi ake presided, and
had Patrick Magruder, Esq. for
his Vice-President. We find also by
the volunteer toasts inserted in the In
tclhgenccr, that of these celebrators
were Doctor Blake, Doctor Cunning
ham, Doctor Barlow', Doctor Green
field, Doctor Dinsmore :—But it is
not from this circumstance alone we
may conjecture that something sore at
tended the democratic celthration in
Washington. It had been intimated be
fore ; and we find many symtomsofit
in the toasts. Take, for example,
these—The Sovereign People—May
they learn to discriminate between real
merit and specious artifice.” What ?
have the People yet to learn this !—
Again, “ Our Publick Functionaries—
May they never feel power and forget
right.’ A stroke at the heads ot de
pai tments.—Again, “ The President of
the United States, may he retain the
confidence of his real constituents.”
\\ hat, is the President in danger thus
early of losing democrat ic’* confidence ?
But these symptoms are still stronger in
tlie volunteers.—We there find fre
quent allusion to a purse-proud w Aris
tocracy,” to“ political slavery;” and
“ 1 he People” are called upon duly to
“appreciate any DEFiATias from the
principles” which secured the elevation
of the u Great Functionary of the Na
tion,” [Mr. Madison,”] but the sort
place is pointed at, w hen these celebra
tors say, AA May our Democracy be
measured by our sincerity, nit by the
length of our purses. The celebration
of our National Festival may cost Tju,
five ciollas, Dick two ; yet the rela
, tive quantity of their Domocraty mav
; 1 e i l an inverse ratio of these sums, thai
to -in favour of Dick" Thus i*
k '
'tlit ciertmc relic k wigwam in
j cn troubled, The truth is, the Heads
'tf Departments, and the w Duke ol
Braintree's well born*' foiks in that ci
y have refused to celebrate with ilu
democraticl: mass, and have giver,
a preference to the company and fare ol
gentlemen. __
Celebration of Independence at l Vi,sc as
set:.
The anniversary of our national freedom
and independence was observed by the led
eral Republican» of Wiscasset with the cus
tomary civic honors and festivity. The ear
|liest approach of morn was welcomed b>
the discharge of cannon. At 12 o'clock,
'the citizens of both parties attended divine
service in meeting-house, which was per
formed by the Rev. Mr. Packard bv their
united request. Atone, the Federal Pepub
i licans moved in procession, attended by
martial music, from Mr. Tinkhanfs hotel
to YVashingtoo Hall, where they partook of
a sumptuous collation, provided with much
taste and elegance ; at which G*n. David,
Payson presided, assisted by Messrs. Brad
ford and Bailey, as vice-presidents. The
correct sentiments of seventy-five appeared
to animate every breast ; and it was a sub
ject of the warmest gratulations, that otfr
j country was yet Free, Sovereign and Indepen
dent. After dinner, the following toasts
• were drank :—
1. This glorious and ever memorable day:
I Let neither “ shades nor darknes, rest upon
lit”—but may its honors and its joys be per-'
petual.
2. The genuine spirit of Seventy-five:
When our lathers declared themselves in
dependent of 6. Britain, they never dreamt
that their sons would tamedy submit to the
tyrannies of France.
3. The government and people of the U.
S.—-May they ever be inseparable ; and
may the former, supported by the latter,
never ingloriously retire either from the
ocean or the field.
4. The Federal Constitution : While its
principles are revered, and its obligations
enforced, our liberties will be inviolable.
5. The memory of Washington : May his
wise & magnanimous policy be as a “ cloud
oy day, and a pillar of tire by night,’ to
guide our ruLrs in the paths of prosperity
and glory.
6. The President of the U. States : Like
the great Washington, may be ever * prefer
the public good to the popular favor.*
7. American Commerce : May it spread
its wings over every part of the globe, and
sailer no restrictions at home nor abroad.
8. All real Republicans ; YVhile they con
tend for freedom in their own country, they
will never apologise for oppression and ty
ranny in foreign governments.
9. Bonaparte :—Gov. Gerry's Goliah of
Europe : Should he ever visit our Ameri
can Israel with hostile intentions, may he
meet a fatal foe in some Yankee stripling of
a David.
10. Our Envoy at the Court of St. James :
To whatever party he may belong, while he
advocates our commercial rights and meets
the pacific overtures of England with sincer
ity, we will say, * that be deserves well of
his country.’
11. Our Envoy at the Court of St. Cloud :
To whatever party he may belong, while he
vindicates the rights and honor of his coun
try, we will freely bestow ujkyn him the
meed of praise.
1?. i he Secretary of State^^Hnde he
pretends to defend the honor Si^^Hksis of
the nation, let him descend to no anQpwhich
truth and candor must condemn.
13. The Slate of Massachusetts : * God
save the Commonwealth.*
14. The Memory of our Fathers : May
we never forget their services nor abandon
their principles.
15. The true Patriots of America : Tho’
their principles arc misrepresented, and
their characters defamed, they will never:
cease to seek their country's welfare.
16 The literary and religious institutions
of New-Englantl : as long as these are sup
ported anti revered, our citizens will enjoy
the means both of ireedem and virtue.
17. The Farmer* and Mechanic* of our
country : May neither mddews blast the
prospects of Uie one, nor embargoes paralize
the efforts and labors of the other.
Tke following toast was reciprocated with'
the citizen* at Liberty-Hall:—
When dangers thicken abroad may unan
imity increase at home;
VOLUNTEERS.
By the President.—The Militia of Massa
chusetts : May they ever prove as patriotic!
as in f75.
By Mr. Bradford.— Christopher Gore :
the same in private as in public life ; a pat
riot without tear ; a magistrate without re
J proacb.
By Mr Bailey —The Emperor of France :
[ May his late matrimonial connexion prove
• abortive—Monsters ought never to propa
j i,ate iheir species.
After the President had retired—by Mr.
B — I hc President of the day, Gen. David
Payson—That citizen's patriotism cannot be
doubted, who braTely fought for his country
in its struggle for liberty and independence.

Celebration of the 4tk of July.—A large and
respectable collection of the Federal arid Re
publican citizens of the town of Minot, as
sembled at the dwelling-house of Major
Cyrus Clark, where, at 11 o’clock they form
ed a procession, accompanied by a military
escort and martial music, under the com
mand of Maj. Clark : in which order they
proceeded to the Rev. Jonathan Scott*s meet- j
j ing-house, where the exercises commenced
| by excellent vocal and instrumental music,!
followed by a devout and appropriate prayer
by the Rev. George Ricker. An oration was
then pronounced by Doct. IV. F. Bradbury, in
a stile of elegance which was highly grati
fying to a large and respectable audience.—
After which the procession again formed

first started, where a large number partook
of an elegant dinner provided for the occa
sion. Major Jonathan Nath, officiated as
president, assisted by capt. lchabod Reynolds,
as vice-president.—After dinner tbe follow
ing Toasts were drunken, accompanied with
platoon firings and martial music :—
1. The honors a free people pay their
rulers : the tribute of honest gratitude to
the wortli it is so eager to acknowledge.
2. Agriculture and Commerce, Arts
and Manufactures—Mutually dependent,
may their interests never be separated.
3- Office and promotion—may they nev
er be the rewards of faishood, nor the
price of political quibling.
4. The Judiciary of Massachusetts—may
the people’s rights ever find security in the
learning, integrity and virtue of their rulers.
5. The Clergy—may they be fountains of
truth and purity, wiien streams of love shall
make glad the c<ty of our God.
i 6. The people of America—may their u
nion return like the verdure of spring, and
discord fade fike the leaves in autunm.
| 7. Senator Pickering—weighed in the bal
ance and found wanting ; his days are num
bered and finished, and his Bishop wreck ta
ken from him and given to another—may lie
no longer deceive the people by his exam
ple, precept or letters !• [.See note.]
. 8. The Ladies of Minot—May iney be as
much admired for their attachment to Lib
erty and the rights of man, as they are re
, nowned for their beauty.
I 9- The nations of Europe—may their
swords be turned into ploughshares and
their spears into pruning-hooks
10 The Day—May the enemies of Liber
, ty in seventy-six, never be esteemed the
1 friends of the people, till they have changed
their principles as well as their names.
11. Agriculture and Manuiuctuics—May
they soon make us independent of alihauoiis.
12 The Martyrs of Uie Revolution—Lu^e
them we’ll refuse submission to the lawless
, claims of any tyrant
13 The American Fair—May their mod
esty, like a flaming sword, ever keep vile
men from the paradise of their chastity.
j 14 The President of the United States—
renowned for his wisdom and integrity ;
m«y his name be ever precious to freemen.
15 The memory of Washington.
16 The Governor of Massachusetts—The
patriot, the statesman *
17 The Lieutenant Governor—one of the
first in the state, (in point of property,) may
he be the first in the cause oi Freedom.
19 Our American Land—Like the hell
ish serpent from the garden of God, may
every invader be hurled therefrom with
ommcienl precipitancy.
i
* Lest it might be considered by
! some, that by giving place to the fore
going toast, we approve of the senli
1 meat it contains, we would remark that
i it is neither true in spirit nor in fact—
and we regret that a toast so obnoxious J
1 should be applied to a man who for 35
1 years has been a faithful servant of his
j country.—Col. Pickering was the!
j friend, companion, and fellow-laborer I
j of the immortal Washington in the
establishment of that independence fc*
those civil institutions which ate a just
cause for joy and congratulation on the
4th of filly. The ingratitude of Re-1
; publics is proveibial, and the manner
in which Col. P. has long been treated
by the country in whose service he has
grown gray, proves the fact. Boys
and those whose whole stock of know l
edge is derived from a democratic
newspaper, may be excused *, but those
who have any pretension to general in- !
formation, know, that Cel. Pickering
has uniformly supported the character
of an able officer, and of a faithful and
enlightened statesman ; that he is nei
ther dismissed, nor will his term of
Senator of the U. S. expire till next
year—Ao. Gazetti,
T
Toasts are said to give a rair view of
the principles and wishes of those who
drink them. At a celebration party in
Virginia, one of the regular toasts
was—
* * * Less politeness in our minis
ter at the court of London.”
This is a very honest confession of
what is required of Mr. Pinkney, and
of the nature of his offence.
These slaveholders likewise drank_
While we cry aloud lor liberty, to our
selves, may we carefully guard against
oppressing others, and not only publick
ly, but privately, observe the divine
maxim—“ To do as we would be done
| unto.”

We learn by the schr. Weymouth

tire, two Spanish and one English 7i
w ith a transport, having on board 8oJ
French prisoners, arrived at SantaCro?
from Cadiz, which place they left the

the inhabitants cf that piaoe Werem
high spirits, and under no apprehen

to the French.
We further learn, that the Seven
Canary Islands were immediately to
be placed under the Vice Koy hy* of
the Duke del Parque, who, with a
number of troops, were hourly exper.
ted at Santa ( * iz.
It is further stated, by our informant
that so much were the inhabitants hv
censed against the French prisoners at
Port Batavia, and the upper town, that
they had embodied and* threatened to
massacre all they could find ; and that
two respectable French inhabitants of
the place had been put to death by the
populace. About 100 of the regular
troops came over from St. Croix and
quelled the rioters.

Afore Democratic Grumbling”
\V e have often heard ourmeek, modes'
, democrats complain at the freedom of
the remarks on the sagacious and pat-'
riotic proceedings of our dennoctal
Congress, declaring that if the federal
presses were silenced, the great men at
Washington would be considered the
wisest anti best tnen in the world. A?
present we think it wholly unnecessary
for the federal printers to trouble them
selves in collecting evidence to expose
the misconduct of our rulers. One of
; their own side is doing this work in i
| manner which would not be quite «o
i safe for federalists. The Editor of tU
Baltimore \\ hig, once the advocate oi
all the democratic measures, says*
“ One thing is certain ; the J»*
tyigue, Delusion and Corruption ot thq
House of Representatives of the Coi
led States, effected bv the Cabinet, a* -
more dangerous than ail our foreign
enemies.”
The violent democratic papers aro
constantly urging the itcal of Mr. fink*
ney from London. The real objection
! to his continuance appears to be because
he conducts like a gentleman.
