For a while, Mr. Adums was deludéd,
his suspicions raif=d, his prejudices ex--
citéd, and his warmth epkindled ‘a.
gainft the republicans of America.
_His proginent and confidential coune
fellors were federal, and he was im
perceptibly carried to the full length
-of federal measures. Yet we arenow.
to trust that his intentions were not
difhonefi 3 and, perhaps, he was incon
- feioufly carried into a desperate federal
/-heme, which, so far from knowing,
he -did not comprehend. The
proje@ of a French war was then
r=folved upon by those who had de
t:rmined to supplant the Prefidiat, if
‘they could ot absolutely control him.
-M. Picketing, then fecietary of (tate,
‘had the hardihood and difbonefly, to
keep from Mr. Adams, when Prefi

The federal party, during its ten
_years admioiftration, increased the
,public. debt vpwards of ten millions
of dollars. - They borrowed pearly
twenty-fix millions, and, 'fhortly be.
fore the people took the adminiftra
tion from their hands, they paid eight
per cent, mterelt ; They introduced
excise and a famp a&t. Before they
.2 opted the prodigality of borrow.
irg, they had resorted to the
‘greatelt extremity of taxation. In
aidition to an ‘ increasing debr,
an prodigal expenditures, -they had
alrsady proseeded to every pradlica-
Ble “exrent of exa&ion Carriage,
house and land taxzes were intra.
‘deced 5 and it was perceived that
“seafmres, {o Rrongly resembling the
‘deipotifm from which we had but re
cently escaped, were intended as a pre
tude to a more rivetted {yftern of op
preflion. The republicanparty com
plzined. Foreigners, who had efcap
- ed from defpotigb. saw what was ap
proaching. But' these malt all be
filsnced. To' accomplith this obj-&,
they passed a sedition law and an.alien
bill. But all this federal intrigne
was ip vain. The community at large
felt the evils. The dangerous and
violent measures of the federal ad.
ministration excited the jult appre.-
henfiop of the people : Mr. Adams
bimfelf abandmed the war party,
and by a fighal a&t of spirited juliice,
dismissed Mr. Pickering from his
councils. ¢ b
In 1800, after an ardaous Rrugele,
républicanifma prevailed ; Mr Jeffor.

only by his great taleuts, but by his.
early and inflaxible attachment to lib

of New. Orleans, with ths whole of
the extensive provinée of Louisiana,

affe&ions of our western brethren, and
removed the discontents, which, fom

‘parate an extensive and rapidly in
crealing portion of our country from
the Union.
§ Instead ofincreafing the public debt,
as the federal administration had either
designedly or improvidently done, it
appears by the regular and official re
ports of the Secretary of the Treasury,
that notwithstanding the total aban
donment of dire&® taxation, and an.
entire reliance upon the revenuds ar
ising from commeice, the republican
administration has alrendy paid nearly
f.rty millions of dolars of the nation
al debt’; and, without exaggeration,
‘it may be fufely stated, that the ac.
quifition of the immesnfe territory of
New. Orleans and Louifana, bas pro
duged public property full adequate
to discharge every remaining claim

_-&pch, fellow citizens, permit-us to
fay, is an imperfe&®, though feithful
and dmpartial sketch “of the relative
merits of the federal and republican
adminiltzations. Under the fi:lt, we
have expeyienced exccflive taxes, an
increasing debt, and cangers to cur
hiberties. A
This system is flill] advocated 2and
fupperted by the federalifts in the State
Legiflitures and in the Congress of
the United States. If rhis fiffem and
sack management correspond with your
wishes, you will vote for federnliffs to
poto Congress ; otheswile you will
not. .
The republican adminiltration, on
the contrary, has abolished taxzation,
and while it honestly applied the pub
lic refounrces to the discharge of cwvr
public debt has never loss fight, or
attempled one single measure irjuri.

The federalifts, with all theirin
