IR O : :
AT a crisis of public concern, the most {olemn, portentous, and
importznt, that was ever cxperienced by this, or any 6ther nation, -
Your candour will excule this address, upon a {ubject in its nature,
not less delicate, than interelting—and uuntil the fubje shall be
underftnod by the parties, this mode is judged 'preferable to a per
- fonal intcrview. :
You cannot {ir, be ignorant that the business of the Typography,
like that of every other profeflion, is truly a mere matter of mmsc}.
Every man had an undoubted right to enjoy his own ifentitments,
and make his own creed, s well, in politics as religion—yet the
Lawyer, the Apothecary, the Mechanic, Printer, and even the
Pricit, « labour for fees, and have arefpect unto the recompence of |
reward” They wilcly caleulate their performancesito suit the most 1
- generous employers—and regardleis of {peculative opinions, account
those their belt cullomers, who'duly appreciate moble deeds, by
pavment of high and honorable rewards: We despise every thing
that has the leait affinity to bribery—our objeét is very different.
‘The services, and commodities, of every man of talents and business,
are for the highclt market—we will deal plainly with you, and it
will be for 2our interest to understand us, and confider—that so
long as you thail continue to be cmployed by the Democrats, you
ean have nothing to hope or expe®, but poverty and disgrace.—
Many, very many Printers, who have hererofore been in the igno
minious employment, weary of dablingin filth at their ewn expence,
or for a pitiful living, have listened to propositions, withdrawn
themfcives from a painful drudgery, and have entered into the ser
vice of thole, who ate both able and williag to make prompt and
ample reward for services. Those Printers now appear like men
just delivered fram the fouleft bondage. They now find themselves
furrcunded by génticmen of integrity, corre principles and habits,
—and while they are honorably promoting the cause of truth, reli
gion, and the happiness of their country—they are, with rapid
Ttrides aceumulating wealth, You, fir, must be {enfible that in all
the Eastern States, the Democrats are divided among aand against,
themielves.. They are broken in theirown element, fudion. They
can never agam rally. Their lecaders are dismayed, and ready to
call on the rocks and mouatains to fall and hide them from {hame,
and from the veugeance of aninjured people. Federalists are every
-day waxing &ronger. Maflachufetts is on high ground—our tri
amph will be complete. The day is faft approaching when a jaco
bin dog will aot dare to move kis unhallowed tongue—when * the
very mame of repnblican will be rendered-unamiable as that of
witch” in the New-Bugland States:. When the federalifts had the
reins of government in Adam’s administration, the leaders were
timid—one bold stroke properly managed, would then have fixed
the federal canfe immoveably secure. - It cannot now be long before
a federal administration will be reinstated—when there will be
thorough work—none but those of correét pringiples and habits
will be allowed to held places, cither of honor, profit, or public
trust—when Dgmocrats, with their printers, must ceafc from bab-,
ling fal{chood. . They will fink into merited oblivion. We admire
your talents, bat regret that they are not more henorably employ
«d. In your present dreary employment, fwilt destruction must
await you— your dread fate is inevitable. Now, dear {r, is the
time for you to refeuc yourfelf from infamy-—and honorably to
muke your fortune, and reputation. Ifsyou will engage heart and
hand on our fide—on the fide of trath, jullice, and your country—
you will not only merit, but receive for honorable services, more
‘GUINEAS, than you ever did, or cver will receive cents from the
~ dinking Democrats. The Democratic babel must fall—never, never
more to rife. We have for a long time been systematically faping
and mining—our plaas are deep-——beyond Democratic ken—our
Tederal ramparts impregoable. A threcfold cord is not soon bro
kcn—we speak with confidence. The Federalists in New-England,
¢ like a band of brethren, are united asone man.” Think for
yourfelf, for we aflure you, the day is not far distant, when there
will be, we hope, an eternal SERARATION between the Northern
States, and the Nabobs and their slaves of the South. In Mafla
chuietts we have {fworn to support the ele&tion of a federal Chief
Magiltrate, for the next year. Had the honorable Mr. Gore, ob
tained his ele@ion for the present year; it would have been extreme-"
ly fortunate—and we think, cannot fail to obtain the next heat—
he certainly saved his distance, and would have obtained the prize—
~ but, for the perfidy of those who held the stakes. Tbhere are many
voters who must soon tack about. 1t is said, and believed, that as
agent ‘and truflee for individuals, and for commercial houses in
“England, Mr. G—+ hoids immense property in lands and other
_eftate, in trust—that his influence in this State on that account is
great, and increasing—which circumftanee, we conceive, would also
give him weight at the court of St. James's—and had he, have been .
clected Governor, no doubt he could and would, before this day,
have made arrangements for an advantageous ALLIANCE between
the Eastern Srates and Great Britain—when, our commerce being
proteked, wonld again flourith—tregain its progreflive vigor—and
-the Embargo laws, with the promulgators, and supporters of that
nefarious fyfltem, would have been consigned to eternal oblivian ~-
- 'We are making his clection sure, Suilivan may “twist and turn"—
aid, or, endeavour to embarrass the choice of EleCtors, or pur
sue what mede of condué he pleases, the Democrats cannot obtain
. his ele@ion. The Federalits abhor his duplicity.” Take a view of
the other New-England States. In New.Hampihire, where, by
. misrepresentation, and intrigue, the majority were lalt year Demo
cratice—the Federalists have done wonders—cvery old staunch Fed
eralist has become a Hercules in the late ele@ion of representatives
to Congrefs—for, although their ticker did not contain any one
‘ prominm&l‘laja&cr, for wisdom or thining popular taleats—nay,
some of thdn were hardly up to firft proof, Jet the ticket was car
ried by a valt majority. -It was, however, a lucky circumstance, that
the Democrats had from neceflity exhibited 2 diéuﬁing‘liﬂ—t—fo that
by industry and preper management, Democratic delusion has given
place to truth and corret principies. Though trueit is, the friends
" togood goverament in this and other States, have by no means been
- idle {pe@ators in the glorious firuggle—no, we have exerted every
merve inthe cause, and we have not laboured in vain. -If you will
“now, beforedt be too late, join ns in premoting the salvation of our .
cause and country, yoi may with co'ngdc-nc_e rely upon an immediate
_ and ample reward. We arc enabled to employ agents, and to make .

!luc late Federal adminiflcation, and mo& admirably well calculated
“to aid the general goverament ia absorbing the petty State iguvcrn
ments, and to make a visible line of distinction, between rulers and
ruled, was carly undet the Democratic administration, unconstitu
tionally repealed. And thereupon sixteen worthy judges, and other
officers were turned to drift in the political fform for a living. Judge
Smith was, and as we have [aid, now is, ode of thofg judges thus
ousted. His salary was two thousand dollars per anunum-—-the {al
‘ariesof the other judges were in proportion to expected [ervices,
some more, others less ; a claim to these salaries has as yet been
“kept up, and demand of payment made ; the arrears of which for
#cight years are yet due, and must and ought to be paid, with
‘antereft for detention. And the moment a Federal administration -

originally produced the {yftem, will, with energy, apply the con

officers appointed under it, will resume their pristine energy and
fun@ions—we cxpect great aid from those much injured judges. It
is for their interest. = His honor Judge Smith, now Chics Juftic® in
New-Hampshire, with a {alary much less than two thousand dol
lars, cannot be ignorant of his fituaticn, nor yet indifferent to his

Farmers of New-Hamptfhire !
THE day approaches cn which we are called to vote for seven 1
suitable men to represent this State, as Ele@Gors of President and
Vice-President of the United States. It bechoves us to confider seri
ously and candidly who we shall appoint to that important duty.——
Which of the lifts of candidates publithed in the Port{mouth and,
Dover papers, deserve your {uffrages ? The Farmers or the Law
yers # The Republican lift eonfifts of JOHN LANGDON, the pre
sent worthy Governor of this State, five honcft Farmers, and a re
fpe@able Merchant : The Federal lift contains fix Judges and Law
yers, and one Farmer. What {ay you, Brothers, Farmers ! whole
bands would you trust your a/f into? I think you will fay #-ithout
any hesitation, into the Farmers hands. If you would not confide
your own interelt to Lawyers, will'you trust the Chics Magistracy
of the Union with them ? By no means. Rcmember the words of
our blefled SAVIOUR, “ Woe unto ye, Lawyers ! who lade men
with heavy burdens, grievous to be borne, but will not move them
with one of your fingers :” also, “ yec have taken away the key of
knowledge, yet entered not in yourfelves.”--1I think those words de
scribe the present race of Lawyers, who arc endeavoring to deprive
us of our rights by deception. What interest have the Fawyere
in common with the rest of the community ? None. If the mer
chants loose their property by capture or thipwreck; what harm
docs the Lawyer fuffer ? None. Iby froft, by drought, by blaf}
or mildew, the fruits of the earth are destroyed and the Farmer is
disappointed in his expected harve(t ; whatinjary does the Lawyer
sustain ? None--He is totally unconneéted with the rest of the
communin. His views, his wishes and interests are diftin& and
separate from theirs.© The Ricars and LisgrTitzs of this happy
country, are a nuisance and an eye {ore to the Judges and Lawyers. -
They wish to remove them, to overthrow them, to trample them
under foot, and on their ruins to eftablith a monarchy and an arif
, tocracy. For this purpose, hand bills filled with libels, deceptions,
frauds and mis-representations are circulated throughout the State -
runners are employed, to drive the poorer: class of citizens to vote
for the Federal Ticket, and to compel them by an arbitrary power
to yicld the dearcft right of freemeni ;. Collectors are bribed to take
by diftraint, after 14 days notice, thole who do not f‘pport the |
federal cause : Bank Diretors threaten Republicans with perfecu- |
tion ; and every art of menacc or persuasion is used by merchants
and traders,in town and country,to induce the honest Farmers and
Mechanicks, those bulwarks of our liberties,to abandon the Repub
lican caufe.~~—Farmers of New-Hampthire ! stand to the truerights
- of the Union. -By thistime your eyes must be open. Although you
in the back part of the State do not have so good an opportanity as -
we have to sec and hear the procecdings of the Union, yet I hope
each and every one of you that feels friendly to the cause of your
country, will vote for the Republican Candidates. Let not Feds {
and Tories overpower us. If they tyrapnized in fucl an arbitrary
manner when they expeced to get five Representatives, what will
they do if they get the President and both beufes of Congress on .
theip fide ? They will then rule us with a rod of iron. They will i
bring us under bondage, and deprive us of eur natural rights. You
may recolle& the proceedings of the latc President Adams with the 1
federal Congress in eftablithing sedition laws, ffamp acts and land
taxes, and appointing Collectors to colleét them, whose salary a
mounted to about two hundred thousand dollars'per annum. The
federalills thenfaid the times would got be good, until common peo
ple did not know what the bead-sien were about; and all the land
‘was onder Lordfbips, as it is in England. ~ When Mr Jerzerson
took the lead, those obnoxious laws were repealed, those useless of
ficers were displaced, and the supernumerary Judges were removed.
- A fine time_jt was for Farmers to grow rich nntil the Chesapeake
affair. ' The Feds told you if you would vote. on their fide, aqd
get in Federal R_cﬁ:efcntativcs, they would take the Embargo off in
tw) or three weeks, and money would be plenty. Havethey done
it ? No. Did not money grow scarce before the Embargo was put
on? it ccnaia_-l%; Soom after the Chesapeake affair the Feds
~ tried t 6 change the Government. The Bank Directors and .fcdcxral j
: ringﬂe’adcts in Boston consulted together, and agreed not to discount

dMefrs. Priniers—
I'L’ has ever been the case, that just
before our public ele&ions, some a
larming, wonderfal accounts have
been propagated by" the federalifts,
with intention to deceive the, people.
In the days of terror the history of the
Illuminati had its run, this was said
to be a dangerous society, confilling
of the most influential and literary
characters in Eyrope, which originated -
in France, with design to destroy all
religion, order and government in the
world. Since that period, previous
to the election of public officers, Tub
plots, Powder plots, or some ridicu
lousy fiorics have bern advanced to
terrify and dissuade the republicans
from performing their duty ; [pccial
care was always taken to introduce
those bugbear relations {o close upon
our elections, that a compleat refuta
tion would not always fruftrate the
design intended ; and when they were
fully refuted after the ele&ion, the re
publicans were laugh’d at as being
outwitted. One of the federal Prin
ters ‘in Boßon ae’kno"wiedgcd that
fometiMnes he published rumotive which
himfelf did not believe would bearshe
telt of truth, however the neceflity ¢€
the case juftified the deed, and the
propagation answered the purpose of
the day. The choice of Lle&ors for
Prelident and Vice-President will be
on FRIDAY NEXT ; as ufnal,
federal hand-bills are flying in every
dire&ion, with design to deceive the
Citizens ; one is headed ¢ Dire& Tax,’
in which is calculated what would be
the proportion of each town in New-
Hampshire to 14,000,000 dollars ;
with more propriety might the writer
have estimated the benefits that have
accrued to those towns by property
saved to the United States, in conse
quence of the Embargo ; this per
formance is compleatly answered by a
writer in the Concord ¢ American
Patriot” of Tuesday laff.* Other
- hand-bills are industriously circvlated,
~which are in f{ubftance, that Mr.
- Pinckney, our minifier in London, has
effe&ted 2 compromise of the difficul
ties exilting between the two countries,
_ that he wrote Mr. Maury our consul
“in Liverpool, to forward a vessel with
his dispatches to our government, if
possible within elght hours, that the
' day after the vessel failed, a clerk from
the consul came on board and report
ed verbally, that accounts were then
“received of Trance having declared
war against America, had confifcated
~all the American property within her
territories and imprisoned the Ameri.
cans ; this Rtory appears to be anoth
. er federal deception, to influence our
fuffrages in the ensuing eletion.—
There is no official docoment in the
business. - That Mr. Pinckney, after
_effecting his purpose with the Britith
- ministers ﬁmﬂ}fi order the consul at
Liverpooly to febd:off bis difivatehes in
_eight hours (provided the business ua
this important event should be so car
iuﬁadby*’thhzdguvcfmn&.cw so
rapidly conveyed back to London and
averngoh and wversing e velitnis
- day after she had failed for the United
States, is very extraoedinary and will
be considered very improbable.

Antecedent to the late ele&tion, and
fince,—the federal papers have tzemed
with abule against the measures of our
government, and the rights of the cit
izens ; they have repeated over and
. over the flale charge of the President’s
~ partiality to Framce, and the tribute
. of the two snillions of dollars that have
' been paid to her : notwithstanding
_oilicial Agocumcnts lately publithed
' have proved the falfity of those char
| ges, yet those reltive {pirits tho’ con
’ victed of their intrigues and foiled in
| their arguments, they @il londly vo.
, ciferate against our government and
; its most wile and prudent measures 3
| indeed T know of no aft that ever
met the approbation of the federalifts,
—probably no a@ could be perform
ed by the present administration how
ever beneficial to the community, but
the federalifts would carp and con
demn it ; such are the sordid motives
of our opponents, and their aversion
to Republican principles, that an An
gel frcm Heaven could not give fatis
faction, should he administer to per
‘ section our happy constitution. What,
must be the opinion of an intelligent
for eigner that reads our public papers 2
could he suppose the federal writerss
men of philanthropy ? patriots that
would cheerfully facrifice private in
terest for the public benefit ? Surely
not. . Would he not suppose them:
worse than drones in the Americam
hive ?—lt is the opinion of many that
some of those writers with to defiroy
our constitution, and eftablith on its
ruins a monarchical government, in
hopes by the alteration, to raise them
selves and connedioms to honorable
ditin&ions and lucrative establish
ments. May Heaven frultrate their
intentions, and inspire the adminiftra~
- tion to those measures that %ll be hone
orabls to our country and promote its
real we¥ure. Itisa fa@ that Mr.
| Jefferfon and his political friends have
| been fhamefully abused for their rea
| publican pr iples, and their exertion
to promete the real interest of their
country. No afef onr administration
has been more excéptionable and ob
noxious to the federali than that cf
“the Embargo; they havécharged the
-administration as enemieS to com
merce, the Embargo as unweceflary
and confirmed as perpetual, ard have
asserted that unless the ad miniftr\i:tn
is changed, misery and deltru&ion ate
‘inevitable. It must be admitted by
ever%’cand!d,and intelligent miod that
commerce has flourithed uhder the
present administration beyond all for
mer example. That the Embargo
was a wife measure can be fully prov
ed by recourse to the fituatien of our
commerce dt the time it'was laid ; the
British orders of council, and the de
crees of France, with gthcr impositions,
forcibly combined to'the neceflity of
. the measure. The Embargo has fava
~ed from bankruptcy a large propor
