JEFFERSON & CALLENDER.
From Federal measures Callender
turns to Federal men, and directs his
attacks against those most distinguished
for talents and virtue.—Of Mr. Mar
shall he fays, he was either a "knave
or a fool :" that Mr. Governeur Mor
ris was “ a bawler for monarchy,a ban
ker and agent for the French princes,
and a spy for Enfland :" Mr. Ellsworth
is stigmatized as " a 6 per cent, veteran
of the Senate ;" Messrs. Hillhoufe and
Sedgwick, he fays "made considerable
purchases in the certificates of the ar
my," an " audacious and detestable
tranfadion," and that the latter was
one of the " wretches who burnt the war
office." Os judge Patterson he thus ex
presses himfelf—"lt was his [Mr. Ad
ams] wisdom to have instantly sent a
pardon to Vermont [to Lyon] leaving
thecreature Patterson to wipe his breech
with his verdia;" he calls Kittera, Har
per, Sewall and Sitgreaves four " bank
rupts,who attempted to plunge the coun
try into desperate measures." Judge
Chafe he declares is " the most detect
able and detested rascal in the state of
Maryland." Mr. Jay he fays, " fold
the rights of the United States to Bri
tain ;" and of Mr. Bayard " that he is
if possible, the rankest aristocrat, the
most unblushing advocate for political
corruption, that pollutes either house,"
with much more in the fame style a
gainst many other gentlemen.
All this was truly deletable to our
good President ! our worthy President !
and it opened his philanthropic foul
to compliment and reward. For all
this he flattered Callender on the (core
of his talents, and he violated his
own nature so far as adually to pay
him money from his pocket. But it
is doubtful at least whether he would
have given so much for these sam
ples alone ; no : there were other men,
whose deftruftion he had more, much
more at heart. The great and good
Washington, with a character and
condud which exhibited a standing re
proach of his own, was the main pillar
of Federalism, and as conneded with
him, as his friend and adviser, on whose
" intuitive judgment ” more than that
of any other man he could more confi
dently rely, Mr. Hamilton ; and in one
ofhis last publications Callender ex
pressly fays, " It was a darling objed
with Mr. J. to destroy the character of
John Adams" his competitor for the
Presidency. Let us then fee how far
the " Profpea" went to gratify his wish
es.—We begin with Waffiington—
“ Mr. Wethington entered into a commercial
treaty with England. He got it accepted by
two thirds of the Senate. He then published it
a, the law of the land, before the fubjedthad
ever come before the Representatives. He could
net have committed a more pure and net viola
tion of bis oath to preserve the Constitution and
of hit official trust ; or a greffer perfonai infalt
or the Representatives." xz
properties of those commodities, to be
appointed by the Governor, with ad
vice and consent of the Council, to be
by them removable at pleasure ; and
who, before he shall enter upon the du
ties of his office, shall give bond, with
fufficient sureties, to the Treasurer of
this State, in the penal sum of one thou
sand dollars, for the faithful difeharge
of his duty; and who shall also be sworn
faithfully to difeharge the fame : And
such Infpedor, when so qualified, shall
h^v^ power to appoint and shall ap
point, Deputy-Infpeftors, for whom
he shall be answerable, and who shall
be removable by him at pleasure, in
Portsmouth, and in such other towns
and places within this State as may
accommodate the citizens without any
unreasonable inconvenience cfdelay ;
and each Deputy Infpe&or, so appoint
ed shall give bonds to the Infpe&or,
with fufficient surety or sureties, in the
penal sum of five hundred dollars, for
the faithful difeharge of their duty ;
and they shall also be sworn to the
faithful difeharge of their duty.
And be it further enabled, That the In
foe dor-General shall be entitled to re
ceive from any Deputy he may appoint
two cents more for each keg, cask or
firkin of butter or hogs lard, said De
puty may inspect and brand, according
to the directions contained in this ad.

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, FOURTEENTH YEAR,
Advertiser
Oracle, anti
We proceed in our attempt to shew
what it really was, for which our wor
thy and well-beloved President reward
ed Callender. The Citizen and Na
tional JEgis, Mr. Jeffei fon's mouth
pieces, assure us that it was " to encoar.
age virtuous optyition to an - iniquitous gov
ernment and that the aft merits applause
rather than censure" - they have had the
temerity too to challenge us to (hew
that the charges for which Callender
was paid were lalfe. It is amply fuf
ficient for every American to fee what
the charges consist of; to exhibit them
is to (hew their fallbood. We havg
the charity for Mr. Blake and Mr.
Cheetham to believe that neither &F
them had ever seen the “ Profped be
fore us" when they threw the gauntlet
of defiance; for though they might
have thought it a decent and fit "and
virtuous oppoftion to an iniquitous govern
ment, yet we fufped they would hardly
have had the indiscretion to commit
themselves by publilhing that opinion
so as to draw the fubjed into open dif
(&^on.
= Without further remark we refumo
the fubjed ; and shall here fcleft
more of the danders directed against
General Washington.
" If Washington wanted to corrupt the A
merican judges, he could not have taken a more
decifivc step than by the appointment of
Jay" 34.
Washington attempt to corrupt! Har-
How pertinently does this come in
aid of the passage in the Mazzei Letter,
charging Washington with being at
the head of an “ angle-monarchical, a
ristocratic party ? a slander so base, that
after it firtt came to light, Mr. Jeffer
fon never could a(fameaffurance enough
to look General Washington in the face.
Before that time he was in the habit of
visiting Mount-Vernon to bestow an ob
sequious attention on its venerable in
habitant, and he seldom palled the place
without calling, or if not, he sent a for
mal apology for the omission ; but af
ter the mask was thus torn from his
countenance he felt so haunted and op
pressed by a guilty confeioufnefs that
he never more attempted to enter the.
house, but even went occasionally out
of his way to avoid it. But since the
death of Washington he has once dat
ed to introduce himfelf there again,
and under the pretence of paying his
lad refpeds to departed worth—yes, he
who Slandered Washington while liv
ing ; he who bribed the fell calumnia
tor to direct a mortal blow againlt his
fame, has dared, when his head was
laid low, to enter and disturb by his
presence the grief of the venerable mat
ron left behind him ; has dared taviolate
the decency of mourning—to trespass
on the fandity of sorrow.—Nay, he
went to the tomb of Washington, and'
there aded over the pageantry of high
wrought, and as he believed, well dis
sembled grief. A piece of conduct un
doubtedly dilated by the cunning de
sire of impressing a belief, that there
existed a real friendship between Wash
ington while living,and himfelf—Noth,
ing but this audacious display of base
hypocrisy, was wanting to render the
pifture complete in all its odious and
monstrous deformity.
" The picture drawn by Mr. Munroe is up
on the whole rigidly corred, and ifwc are T #
quite incurable, it must extir guifh our admiri
non for the .presidential talents of Mr. Wafhi=g
ton.''l3
" By his own account Mr. Washington ^?
been twice a Traitor. He firft renounced
the King of England, and thereafter, the ri:
confederation. His farewel paper contains &
variety of mifehievous fcntiments."i6
" By the way it is incomprehenGbie how Mr.
Washington came to chink that he bad any cJ.
to write such a letter.' ' “It was a bait for
pularity. Many fufpe& that Mr. WalhingL;
printed it on the fapyofition that be would h
courted to retain his fituation/W.
Delicious repast this for Jefferfon!
" The extravagant popularity possessed by this
citizen, refle&s the utmost ridicule on the difeero
ment of America. He approved of the funding
system, the assumption, the national bank, and
in contradiction to his own solemn promise, h;
authorifed the robbery and ruin of the rem
nants of his own army."i,.
How mult this passage have delight,
ed the foul of Jefferfon ? It was here,
I presume, he felt an involuntary emo
tion to purhis hand in his pocket, to
feel if he had not some change about
him.
" Under the old confederation, matters never
were, nor could have been conduced so wretch
edly as they actually are, and have been under
the successive Mroircb^ of Braintree and Mount-
Vernon."l2>.
