Yesterday, .at 12 o'clock, the House of .
Representatives of this State, waited
on the President of the Uniied States,
and presented the following | ‘
ADDRESS : :
T 0 FOHN ADAMS,
PresipenT of the UniTep StATES.
’ Siz,
T this momentous crisis of our
A'_ public affairs the House of Re
presentatives of the State of Pennsyl
vania, at an early period of their
feflion, beg leave to express the high
sense they entertain of your condudt,
as chief magiltrate of the United
States, in fuppert of the honor .and
independence of this country:
We have viewed, with anxious {oli
citude, the wild projeés of dominion,
which have beea displayed on the
theatre of Europe. We hate seen,
that even that theatre is too small
for the unlimited ambition of the
rulers of the French people ;—that
the Atlantic itfelf gives no bounds to
their project of {ubjugation ; and that
the United States of America dre
threatened. Threatened, fir, not so
much with open hostility—or an im
mediate and bold division of their ter
ritory——as with a division by means
of a dark and insidious policy of the
people from the government of their
choice, and from the men on whom
the ponderousweightof administration
relts.” = ..
The vilest arts of political feduétion
have been triumphantly employed in
various governments, and especially
in those of republican form. The en
dearing language of sister has been
'utterpi in the moment of a deadly
embrace. That you,{ir,have been con
stantly aware of the effe&ts of this
-policy, and have, with an' uniform
dignity, proved against them and for
the public fafety; {o far as your con
stitutional powers permiited, must be
highly gratifying to the patriotic
pride of every independent mind. |
That in. this address we {peak the {
sentiments of the great bocl’y of our 1
constituents, as well as our own,
warms our hearts in the expression of -
that important truth, Yet we deplote
‘that there are those, who call them
selves by the American name, who
have daringly iMulted our. country,
by an- uitrpation of powers not dele
gated to them, by an obscure intefer
ence in our external concerns. . That
_you -have lately noticed this circum
flance, is an additional proof of your
vigilance for the general welfare. .
~ On this fubjet it remains for us to
fay, that as (notwithstanding your L
beral policy) negociation has failed,
we pledge ourselves in z solemn man
ner, as far as our constitutional
_powers extend, to co-operate with the
government in averting all foreign
influence, and . detetting domelftic.

. AIR SAILING.
The Paris papers speak much of an
acroftatic voydge, performed on the
12th ‘of -June, by the celebrated
“Garnerin, in company - with ‘a ‘very.
‘beautiful female They descended at
about three leagues distance from
Paris, the Munictpal Agent of the
‘place, where 'they landed, afket them
how they ¢ame to travel ‘in ‘the air
without a paflport ; and arrested
them as emigrants ‘who were endea
vouring to efcapedin a ‘balloon : but
“the persons who followed them on
horse back, {oon undeceived him, and
they were released., . = :
Citizen ‘Garnerin observed, that
when he left the earth, the barometer
'was at 28 inches 3 lines French, and
fell 'in the course of his voyage to 20
‘inches 3 lines. , i X 9
The following letter refpelting this
“voyage (written by the astronomer
Lalande) appears in one of the French
papers. o LOEIE
¢ Citizen Garnerin and Citizenefs.
Henry ascended magnificently, on the
“x2th of June. The Balloon was set
off at 29 minutes after eight, in about
-B.minutes they passed through.clouds
and were ‘enly {feen at intervals. - At
45 mimites after eight they were ob
~ferved -to .dé%;nd" rapidly. They
descended at Dagny, 5700 toifes to
the north of Monteau. . Their Bar
_ometer had fallen eight inches, which
_ corresponds to 146 to ifes of ¢levation.
«Such experiments as this " cannot
_be too often repeated, since by them

ations of the atmosphere and of the

before they could recover their true
station in the world.
There has not been a found mind
m ¥rance which has not always
regretted and lamented this foible in
his countrymen. Nor do I believe
there is a Frenchman in the world at
this day, who is really and truly
enlightened with the knowledge of the
true interest and honor of his country,
who does not bewail the infatpation
which is producing temporary calami
ties to other nations, and must pro
duce more lasting misfortunes to
France. ,
-'The insidious and malevolent policy
of dividing people and nations from
their government is not original :
The French have not the credit even
of the invention of it. It is borrowed
from the great nation of Persia, who
were taught it by the little republic
of Sparta, after the was debauched
and corrupted.—France onglit to be
afthamed of it, and the wor%d oiight
to make her repent of her servile
mmitation. '
Candor must own that our country
lies under a reproach which it con
cerns the nation to correé ; it is
that of producing individuals who
are capable not only of dark inter
ferences by usurpation in our external
concerns, but also capable of forget
ting or renouncing their principles,
feeling and habits, in a foreign coun
try, and become enemies to their |
own. The difgraceful observation |
has been made,; and with too much |
appearanée of truth, that there are
more Americans than there are of .
any other nation who change their i
minds when they change their skies. '
‘Scandalous and criminal proofs of .
this are licard and read almost every
day. Whether this is owing toa
want of national chara&er; or a want
of criminal law, a remedy ought to
be fonglie.” T e pem At
The folemr pledge you give to co- .
operate with the general government, -
in averting all f§re§gn influence and
detecting domestic intrigue, 18 very
important, to the common welare of
our country, and will give great fat-:
ista@ioni to-the Unjom. ~© . 014 7 T
I return, gentlemen; with great
pleafure,—my singular and earnest
wishes for your health, that your care
for the public good may continue, as
I doubt mot it will, and with it the

vania in particular, and the union in s
general.” JOHN ADAMS.
