Every art is tried to fever this country
from France. It is now said, in order to
excite us to a deteftat'ibn of the last revo
lutionary movement in France, and of the
present rulers of that Republic, that
those opposed to them, were executed, be
cause they were of opinion that a federal
governrhen;, was best ; insinuating, that
confcquently our general government must
be abhorred by the men at the head of af
fairs there.
Notwithftaoding forr.e c'louds in our po
litical horizon, I trust we (hall continue a
neutral nation ; for altho' we receive in
justice from all the warring nations, yet
war, would outweigh all those evils ; and
as republicans, we must calculate upon the
scale of iiilerej}. Kings, will go to .vtr
from ambitious views, hut we must ast on
more-enlightened and solid principles. It
is happy for us we have men at heim who
have extnifive andjuft views of national
interest. I cannot help entertaining a hope,
that the crooked and narrow-minded men,
may ast with more candor and patriotilm,
this session, than heretofore."
" Events, and communications, since
the meeting of Congress, have nearly si
lenced the wretched few, who have for
some time pad, clamoured against the mea
sures of the Federal Government. The
Prcfident's speech, and the answer of the
two Houses of Congress, have been a
clincher.
We learn' tb at information has been re
ceived at the War-Office, from Major
General Wayne, of his having pollened
the field of battle of the 4th November,
1791, by a detachment undttr the com
mand of Major Burbeck, who eftabli&ed
a redoubt on tin/ spot, which he named
Foit Recovery—having recovered the
cannon loft there—and collected all the
b >nes of the slain, which were interred
under the" discharge of three times three
rounds from the cannon which had been
lelt on the ground.-

Sunday last, a subscription was opin
ed in this city, for raising a fund to de
fray the expense of building and equip
ping a Frigate, to be presented to Con
gress for the purpose of afllfting in the
protection of the American trade. A
confiderahle sum was immediately sub
scribed which, it is hoped, will be fol
lowed by ftich liberal subscriptions as
wiil effectually accomplish a measure so
iinfoitant and efientral to the interests of
the American commerce. Subscriptions
are received by Mr. Thomas Martin, at
the corncr of Bay and Tradid-fttreets.
Oil this account, America is perhaps
more indebted, for h<?r happiness and free
government to her present rulers, than for
all their exertions in the field—fince the
prefervat'wn of liberty,' peace, and fafety,
is a much arduous talk than their acqn'ifi-

To be faithfully served by those vrfio
are freely elected by the people, is the di
rect way to incur the malevolence and a
buse of men, who never gave any other
evidence of their patriotism than their
own declaration! Surely there is more
glory in remaining firm at the poftof duty
when the arrows of detraction aH.il the
fliield of public virtue, than in braving
death amklft a ihower of the leaden nitffcu
gers of fate.
To build up, enlarge, strengthen, sup
port and defend the government of the
people, is surely the work of patriotism
in every country, and in every age—but
the reverse of all these is the test of repub
licanism with some who are not afhamcd
to dub themselves friends of " the rights
of man."
