MISCELLANY.
German Emigrants. '
It is now a little more than five years,
since a pumber of German families, fiyling
themselves “the Haimony -Society,” came
to this country with a view of forming a
diftin& fertlement. They soon planied
themselves in the wlldernefs of Butler coun
ty.io the northwefltern corner of Pennsylva
nia. The following account of the origin
and progrels of their settlement .will be
read with much fatisfaction It is topied
from the Mirror, a paper published in the
peighborhood of this frugal, inddftrious and
thriving Ppeople. :
“The association of Harmony had _its
origin in Germany upwards of 26 yeats agoy
and feeling themielves much appreffed on
accouut of their reiigion, they coacluded to
feck a country where they copld exercise
their retigion without hindranck or oppres
sion ~They chose the United States of A
merica. ‘
In theyear 1804, in December, about 20
families arrived 4t Zcelinople, in the neigh
boihood of which, Mr Geosge Rapp, with
some cthers, bought about four thousand
seven hundredacres of land, and during that
fall built nine log houses. ' T

clearcd for corn, 58 acres for mecadow--an
oil mifl was built, and a tannery, a blue dy
ers shop, and frame barn 100 feet long.
fn the year 1807, 378 acres were cleared
for grain and a meadow, a brick fidre house
buile, a saw mill and beer brewery ere@ed
and 4 acres of vines planted ; in this year
the society fold 500 bafhels of grain and
3000 galls of whiskey, manufactured by
themfclves of their own produce. i
- In.the year 1808 a »conﬁdcrable‘ quantity

FELLOW CITIZEN§, ; SOPRE T
_ WE prepefedin the close 'of our
G/€ cumber, to contrast the federal
and republiens pavtits-#This will be
attezipted in the followitg numbers.
~ Tbe republican paity is composed of,
the eplightened advocates, and sincere
friends, of the existing Conßitation
of the United States, taken in connec
tion with those amendments, which
may be conficered justly as a charter
of the public rights.
Muintaining the principle, and pos
fefling the spirit which produced the
Independence of our nation, they
have ever determined that the toils of
“the revolution, inflead of effecting a
~mere change of masters, should 'fe
cure & perpetuate the substantial rights
and solid privileges of the people.
The federalifts administered the gov
ernment for the term of ten years.
“During that petiod, the utmost efforts
> were made to accomplish the cardinalP
design of that party. ‘l’he revolution
in France was opposed, because, at
that time, its profeffed and apparent
obj=&t was, to eltabliftva republican govs
ernment ; and because, for thut reason
only; the sentiments of the friends of
liberty among ourselves, were strongly
favorable towards it.
Hence it became determined, by
those who. had imbibed such views, to.
refilt and to blalt the firft buddings of
the revolution in France, and 1o ue.
nite the American government in a
~common crusade again what was
then termed the liberties of the world.
- . It was wished that we should place.
-ourselves in the fame scale with the
secret proj=@ors of the treaties of Pil
- nitz and of Pavia ; and, by way of af
fordiog a suitable return to a nation
- who had 2flifted in effe@ing our Inde.
~ pendence, in less than twelve years be.
~came a party to her dismemberment.
~ General Wasnineron, who cone
- duéted our armies in the field, at thag
- moment _prefided in the Cabinet 3
though assailed by federal ministers,
and constantly exposed to their seduce
tive misrepresentations, his ear was o
pen to the truth, and his bosom swell
ed at the voice of freedom.—OQur il
