The Rhode-Island Republican — Newport, R.I., 1810-04-25 00:00:00, page 3

The recent election in this. state must
have conviaced the minions of power, that
azmocracy, though fettered for a season, will
never serviiely wear a shackle. Her emun
cipation has been sudden—=her triumph great
and glovious. Every braich of our legisla
wure will be republican. We congratulate
cur fellow-citizens in this state, and in the
the United States, on the election of a re
publican governour and lieutenaut governour
~=of a republican senate, and a majority of
republicans in the house of representatives.
Our encmies, feeling the pangs and con
torsions of disappoiated ambition, are deter
mined to persist in their envectives and scur
rilous remarks. We do not think it belongs
to our province to notice the ranting declu
mation of every bluckguard hireling that
stalks our street, and shall therefore pags o
ver their remarks in contemptuous silence.
As the legality of the election of Authaniel
+ Hazard, Esq, has been called in question, we
shall briefly notice it. We are very solici
tous of a legislative enquiry—we court ite
we challenge our opponents to meet us on
that ground. e are likewise anxious for a
judicial trial, if thought proper, to arraign us
at the bar of justice, for electing a man, in
whom we_ can confide. ¢ ’Fraud” has been
so often practiced by federalists, that it has of
late become almost synonymous with federal
ism itself. Is it not, therefore, illiberal and
unjust for them to accuse us of resorting to
their own measures. Facts, we believe will
shew that it was never more in vogue than at
the late election in this town.
The publick will perceive from reading
the above *letter Liow little it merits the epi
thets of vulgar and malignant abuse which
hava been heaped upon it in the Newport
Mercury.
The proofs of the intention of the leading
men of the opposition party in the Eastern
States, to effect “ a dissolution of the Union”
are before the people. They will judge
whether the resolves of the Massachuseits
legislature, of different publick meetings ;
numerous newspaper essays, and private
conversations, do not all combine to manifest
such a design. .
An alliance with Great Britain, is stated in
this letter, not as the direct aim of that party
but as “ the inevitable consequence” of the
war with France and her allies, which Gov
ernour GGore, and others, endeavoured to in
volve us in, by calling upon Congress ¢to
wifurl the Republican banner against the im
ferial standard.” Thus passing’ over the
numerons and aggravated wrongs we had
suffered from Dricain. and concentrating the
whole of our resentment towards France.
the gift of cop—=that gift made you by bis se,
cret council to will and to act, nor lorget a.
mid your rejuicing, that goodneu. of Provi
dence which has secured you such distinguish.
ed felicity—it merits your unfeigned thanks,
and by hearts,we hope,replete with gratitude,
The vaunting threats of legislative inquiry
and of jadicial trial, so threateningly announc.
ed in the last Mercury, against the election
of Naruawiei Hazarp, Esq. neither alarms
nor tervifies us. We invite rather than shrink
from such an investigation. Should an injuiry
be instituted, a secret then of fious frauds on
the part of fiious men,will appear,that will stige
m.tize and confound federalhonour and fidelity.
Wi could be explicit, but ‘we forbear, lest we
irr_/}\e:ce the publick mind upon a guestion that
mayde a aubject-both of legislative inquiry and
of julicial irial,
A call upon Repubiicans touse all honour

exceed the number of freemen. But suppose it true
that some voters put in more than one vote, does it
follow that they were for Mr. Hazard 2—No «~How
many double votes were that day put in for Federal
candidates without detection, we cannot say: but
we know that there were several detected.
The Boston Gazstte, has again come forward with
the lamentable story about tie officiousness of their
neighbours in Vermont and New-Hampshire. The
loss of (heir election is attributed to the circumstance
of a few men coming from New-Hamphire and Ver
mont. This is too ridiculous to be treated seriously
—~it is the mad raving of a disappointed faction. We
expect it-will be said a few hundred of these same
imtruders introduced themselves at our election.

Mr. Bayard’s bill, now before the senate,
enacts that a National Bank shall he estab

$20,000,000, divided™into 50,000 shares of
$4OO each—=and that supscriptions for shares'
be opencd in the different states on the Ist
day of Oct. next. The Bank is to be char

rectors. In voting for directors, stockhold
ers, actualy resident in the United States, and
none other, m«y vote by proxy. The corpo
ration is to be prohibited from purchasing a

established whenever the directors sce fit, for
the purpuse of discount and deposit only.
The 7th section enumerates the places a
which offices may be establishedin the Unit

is to have a capital of $700,000. The Unit
ed States reserves the right of subscribiny
for $4,000,000 ; which sum the Bank is t

the several states have alsoa right to sub
