Rev. Mr, Worcejier's Address.
Mr. Davis,
In compliance with the withes of some,
you @re furcifhed with a copy of an
ADDRESS, by the Rev. Mr. Wor
cester, of Salisbury, to his people,
after other exercises, on the day pre
ceding their adoption of certain politi
cal Refoliations. It is submitted to
you whether the Address (ball appear
in the paper with the refolutiuns or
not. [The resolutions were published
kft week.]
M, Fallow Citizens,
A SENSE of duty urges from me a
tew words, to awaken your atten
tion to the business of the town meeting
to morrow. Truly intereftiog is the
prelent state of things. Our great, our
heaven bestowed privileges are outrage
ously beset. That impious, that bloody
nation, who have so loudly boasted of
their friendfhip, and afliftance, .have
thrown off the maft', and appear deter
mined to ruin us, Tteir groundless com
plaints against our government, their in
dignities call upon dur Envoys, their
haughty demand of more than a hun
dred tons of silver, and above all, their
artful, base, and as yet too fucceftful ef
forts to divide the people from our gov
ernment- These are naked designs a
gainst our national existence. ; Will you
stupidly submit to all this ? Shall our
best Constitution in the world be given
up ? Will you be no longer governed ac
cording to its principles, by men of wif
dom, humanity, .and religion—6, tof
your own cboofing ? Will you exchange
this for the government of foreigners—
of infidels, and plundering botchers of
^mankind ?— Tbit, O Americans I is the
question of the present momentous peri
od 1-r What is now the resolution in your
every breast ? Is it not this? If God
Should give me leave, I will come to the
meeting appointed ; and I will come de
termined to join in the adoption of reso
lutions, which, when published, will dte
chre to the world, that I have nothing
too dear to be faCrfticed when necessary
to Support our excellent government and
national welfare. Do this and shew your
feives men. Dotbit, and throw all your
weight into the right Side of the Scale.—
Do this, and animate Others with the
fame Spirit- For this done with perfever
ance through the continent, would clothe
cor enemies with Shame, and fil them
with defoair. If any feel the teafl back
wardness about this business, then con
sider well what is written in the Sacred
book*—Car// „ Mrct, (said the angel of
the Lerdj—cur/e ye bitterly the inhabitants
thereof—becaufe they came not to the help of
the Lord, to the help ^ the Lord again, the
mighty.
* Judges §. 23.
N. B. For the foregoing Addref„ the
author considers himfelf less deferring of
the public, ,than Thomas Thompson,
Esq. for a more leogthy, very judicious,
and Spirited Speech, made by him in the
Town- Meeting. After which, not one
citizen, of the many present, appeared
against the resolutions of the day.
MASSACHUSETTS,
Address from Andover.
To the Prefideot cf the Uaited Stalfl.
Sir,
YI 7E, the Freeholders and other in-
VV Habitants of the town of Ando
ver, in the Common wealth of Maffaebu
fette, beg leave to join the multitude of
our Fellow-Citizens in presenting you
with our warmest gratiinde for that wis
dom, Vigilance, integrity and patriotisms
which have marked your administration ;
and ia particular for ypgr perfeveriag fo
' licitude to preserve to these States Ihe
bieffings of peace and neutrality, upon
such terms as would consist with the pre
fervatioir of odr essential rights and in,
terefts. f ~ ?
Although repeated attempts to ac
commodate exiting differences with the
French Republic, have not produced the
effeft which might have been reasonably
expected, they may prove effeatiJ meaes
of political salvation, by unfolding the
designs and enormous demands of that
Government, whom we have been un
willing to conclude our enemy.
This difclcfure meft produce universal
conviction, that no hope of Safety is left
for us, without our own-united virtuous ?#-
ortions. —We therefore again thank you,
Sir, for your Solemn and repeated calls
on the proper department) to m?ke the
moft Speedy and effectual provifiun a
gainst the worst events : For youg firm
resolution, that you will never surrender the
Independence or ffntial Inters,s cf your
Country ; and for fummmoning the peo
ple to unite with you in Supplicating the
diredion and blessing of that aim git, Re
%e under who, patronage (if nat criminal
ourselves) we have nothing toft ar from an)
power on earth.
In the feme resolution, we hold it to
be cur sacred duty, with that of every Amer.-
ican, me, cerdfall, to concur.
Every attempt to detach us from that
Government, which is the w? k of our
hinds, and from whence we ha e al7 a?y
derived blessings far lurpaffing the high
est expectations of its warmest admirers,
wr repel with indignation.
To abandon such a goverortent, and
the invaluable privileges, civil and relig
ious, enjoyed under it, from any conft
derations whatever, feould be acting 1
part unworthy the descendants of our re
nowned Anceftors-rbring indelible in
famy on ourselves—be an ad of treache
ry to our pdfterity, and betray the bafett
ingratitude to, and distrust of that Su
preme Being who groe at theft blffogs.
^ With an humble reliance, therefore,
on this Being, whom we do and ever will
acknowledge as the only 66 Arbiter of
Nations,", and confiding in the wis
dom, patriotism and firmnefs of the cdn
ftituted authorities of our Country, we
are determined, at every hazard, to Sup
port those measures which they (hall pre

the ANSWER,
Os the PRESIDENT of the United States,
to the YOUNG MENof Rofon.
GENTLEMEN,
TT is impossible for you to
.4 enter your own Fanieul-
Hall, or to throw your eyes
on the variegated mountains,
and elegant islands around
you, without recollecting the
principles and anions of your
fathers, and feeling what is
due to their example: One
of their f rfl principles was to
unite in themselves the char
acter of Citizens and Soldiers,
and especially to preserve the
latter always lubordinate to
the former.
With much solicitude for
your welfare, and that of
your posterity, I take the
freedom to fay, that this
country never appeared to
, me to be in greater danger,
than at this moment, from
within or without ;--- never
more urgently excited, to afc
fume the functions of Sold
iers.
