From THE APOLLO, a paper printed
at Chejlertown, Maryland.
The man who fvvears against his will,
Is of the fame opinion (till.
HAIL ye full bred Tons of America !
ye ativoc tes foi the Rights of Man !
and iillen to the voice of teafon and hu
manity ! let not the unspotted nations
character of America be Itained with in
gratitude, nor her political with a breac
of public fiith, solemnly pledged by trea
ty ; but ast 'he grate uC and the hornlt
par', and treat, with 'he molt foverei ,r
contempt, those animals among us, vr/ui
dare i(h if to disregard our facted o'oli
nations to Fra c•, a d via ate our treaty,
as enemies to the hutiun lace, fit tools sot
tyrants.
O,fi ler their conduct, with refpeft ti
the French revolution, and you will fin.l
them only re-acling their p-»i ts in the glo
rious American revo ution ;an , that t 1 <
still retain the slavish doftri cs of p.dfiv
obedience, and non refill rice and hol<
the divinity of kings, coiitrat v to the ex
p-efs declaration of this enlightened em
pire : but we ought not to expe&. Jigs
thorr.s, ox grapes ol th\jl>es.
To hear them v I fy the French, wit*
every epithet that malice ca i lugged t<
their poisoned fen es, you would btliev.
th y had btirll th-*ir galls ; to hear the:;
reprobate the poverty of human language,
for not inventing words like fwo ds aiu'
exectate the ati hor of thtir nature, sot
not making them ventroliquilts, to throw
those wor'ls across the Atlantic ocean, a 1 >i
flay the gallant sons of France, you would
conclude they wer "refuge- p r inces of
France—But were you to hear them exe
crate the Na ional Convention, for tiie
tria , conviction am: execution of Louis
Capet, you would swear that he was a di
vinity, the National Convention a band of
villains, sent by Pontius Pilate to murder
him, and that they were sent bv Hraven
to avenge the facriligeous aCt—But, when
I tell you they wer enemies to the gre it
American rev lution ( hat event which
fills the 11 obi> ft page of history, and will
flnkr the molt distant ages with sftonifh
meiit) t eir conduit will be p.rfe&ly ex
plained. They are as certainly attr Aed
by the magnet of a crown, as the needl.
bv the loadltone, and again fall down and
Ivorjhp he golden calf, beca fe he wears a
crown, that etown which w s vrrefted by
the arm of power from the head of hts
own r lauon, the descendant of the mur
dered Charles-—To be idolaters of a jalje
God, who shines in Jlolen plumage, mult b(
idolatry indeed.
Can any n n juftify the principles of
tV>e merican revolution an I condemn
the revolution of France ? Have not the
p ople of France the lame natu-al right ; s
A r.ericans ? re not all mankind i>y na
tu'e ■ qual ? Have we not expr fsl de
c ared in our Bill of Rights, " That all
government is de ived from the people, is
founded. :n compact only ?' and, ' * V hat wc
have the sole right of regulating our internal
government " Is it not exprtfsly declared
to be comrary to th laws of nati n3, " Far
one n tion to interfere with the internal go
vernment «•'another ?" Yes, and they have
the exclujive ight, to deci e on their own
r lutions, 'and form goveinments for
i'jtmfelves :—But. the trial and execution
of Louis is 7, political crime never to be
forgiven, nor expiate ', but by the boo!
of the Convention of France, as murderers
and ajfftns. Let us c or.fider th'S charge,
and who they are that ..rofecute the Con
vention for it—They are that herd of little
heroes who (tuck to George the 11 Id in
the American contejl for libei ty; who forget
the murdered Charles ; who, but the other
day, we rejoi ing at the fate ol Louis
becaufe he aided America in her glorious
struggle for liberty, to whom they have
onlv attached thtinlelves, since the usurper
o' Britain has taken a part in i er cause,
her natural enemy, because he wat a ting,
and because theflames of liberty, unless fpe -
dily extinj;uifhed, would certainly melt
every crown in Europe
It dare not be contended, that Louis
was not guilty of the crimes for which he
fnffered death, after the conviction by the
national convention, who alone had that right;
crimes, by the of Moses, expiable by
dea h alone, " He who sheds man's blood
by man «' shall iis blood be shed But
Louis was a king and the sacred chara&e
( f kings, the divinity of his title, ought to
have secured him from the pollution of hu
man punifliment ; kings have a divine right
to Jacrijice human -victims on the altars of
roya.ty :• —But, oh ye sacrilegious Franks,
y u mud be scourged for this iniquity. —
How would the shepherds conduct them
selves towards a crowned wolf, who had
an unlimited jure divino, right, to kili
their sheep with impunity ? Would they
not risk tie provoca'i nof divine ■vengeance,
and sac ifice him on the altar of Signine
Liberty ? Would not reason and humani
y p laud the ast ? and, would not na
ture, and nature's God, declare the jultice
of that judgment, and every lamb cry oui
/fm n ? And shall man be condemned for
consulting his own fafety; by th deduc
tion of the tyrants of the earth, those de
stroyers of the human race, and the (hep
her s be applauded for the protection of
th if flocks.
Whst, let me affc, would have been the
fate of George, in the fill of 1776, by
wh -ft' command a num er of his innocent
•■I jeets had been murdered by the fwortl,
an by 'he more 1 v go confinement in
pr son (hips, an unnt-c-fTiry rigor of war,
inadmiflable by the usage of civilised nat -
ons : Would they have tried him by a Con
srcfs, and executed iin with a Guillotine:
No,tliey would have given him martial law
they would have confi lered him a tyrant,
a usurper anl afpv tried him by a court
martial, and hung him on a gibbet ; he was
a tyrant or we were rebels ; and shall we
bear the Franks to be condemned, Fot
putting I,'iuis Capet to death by a civi.
trial and a Guillotine, when we v ould have
tried George Whelps by a court martia
and hung him on a gibbet ?
But, if therfc is any thing so sacred ir
the character 'f kings, that they are
above the law, and ma commit, by t eii
fia , murders wit 1 impunity, it is a crimi
to be a king, for which they ought to fut
rcr death : And I do not find in all the
laws of Moses, that kings who commit eti
murders are excepted and by the law o!
nations, a. d of God, tyrants and murdercn
may be put to death.
Let us .letermine to ast an honed part,
preserve our tnaties, and be obedient tc
the rulers of cm land, as long as they con
full the public good ast agreeably
to our conftitijtion : but when they vio
ate tlte one, or the other, let us, Ameri
cans, who deposed k ; ngs, who dared be
free, use the knife freely, that terror tc
tyrants.

n he 3 /thofjinuary sermon, preached
by the Lord Bishop of St. Davids, was 2
matter ofjefuitifm.lt conlilted oft", c
parts, politics and religion, the latter being
always kt pt n due fubordinati 11 to the
former. He preatl e from the text, " Lei
every f ill be ful jest unto the higher pow
ers" ; from which he drew as perfect
Ivft m of non refinance to crowned head:
as ever graced the days of Charles the
second. In this extraordinary discourse
ihe prear e attempted to prove, that
John Cilvin tho' unquestionably a repub
lican in theory, was not p'ac'ictdly an ene
my to the government of kings It ap
pea red to most of the auditors rather die
to lug in Ctivin's politi s. As a divine
he was in some points as orthodox and ra
her more explicit than an English bishop.
H> scorned to interpose a prevarication
between the foul of Serve/us and the mer
cy of his creator. He thought the furefl
way of saving him from being burnt to all
eternity in the next world, was to burn
him in this — and he burnt him according
y g° 'hon, Mr. Bishop of St. David's,
ind do so likewise !
