" Yon have often been addrefTed relative to
the: libertics of your country ; and many
" who addressed you' were, doubtless, actu
-« ated by felfith motives. =To diftinguith the.
- woice of the patriot from that of the disor-.
gnizer, it is'neceflary to examite for your-
Ives, and not trult implicitly to the decla
ration cf otherr, : |
T have but seldom attempted to address
fny fellow citizens, from the consideration,
that a juvenile mind was not fufficiently
matured to aunthorife the belief, that I could
contribute to the public good; but manhood
has arrived, and Heaven grant it may be
deyoted'to my country. 5
In beholding the- critical situation in
which this cduntry is placed by the un
warrantable policy of foreign wnations; -
and in contemplating the consequences
which will probably result from the destruc
tion of our liberties, the mind of the patriot
and the philanthrophiit experiences an ua<
conduerable solicitude. 7
Every man who is not totally indiffcreat
to the welfare of this country, must be sen
sible that the time has arrived when its
friends should be its friends isdeed ; when
every citizen, however obscure may be his
fitwation, thould ¢aff bis mite into thr fuale of
825 libestics. ‘
That the liberties of this country are al
failed, no unprejudiced mind can doubt.
By whom they are assailed is a question to
be decided by -the people. ' Bat let the de
cision be founded,not upon every flying report,
but upon serious reflection —The [ubject is
serious; the refle@ion (hould be mature,and
the decision prompt and firm.
~ The liberties of this country must stand
or fall. They hang upon the voice of the
people.—* ob.sbat the people wwere wife y=that
they wouldsonfider their latter end?” We live un
der a free government ;—The only rational
government which the world cver saw. This
government is threatened with destruction :
~-Agaialt our republican institutions, is di

The constitution of this country is an in

ceftors—yet they derive a consolation
from witnessing the gradual ‘extirpa
tion of federal power in other parts of
the union, where eleions have been
recently held. North Carolina, now
represented by niné republicans and
three federalilts, will have ten of the
former and two of the latter in the
12th Congrels. Kentucky has dis
carded M. Lydn, and thas purged her
representation of federal infection. It
is ffot yet known what is thé result of
the eleion in Vermont, which was
held on Tuesday laß—but we enter
tain very sanguine hopes of the tri.
umph of republicanism. Toryifm has
prevailed in Rhode-I{lind b’g a small
majority., Maffachufeits eledtion is
held in November next, which will
probably augment the numbers of the
already powerful republican phalanx
in Congress. Seeing that administra
tion is daily gaining firength by the
approvatory voic¢e of THE PEOPLE, We
cannot but hope that the energy and
decision of the s2th Congress will in
some measure efface the Rigma calt
upon‘ our national charaéer by the
tameoe(s (of the majority ) and treach.

If they find the people have discarded
those who-succumbed to the clamors

to retain popularity—it is to be hoped
they will banish that fzar which, ad
