[From the Rickmc.nd Chronicle
" IMPRESSED with the lingnlarity of
i dream I had lali<(iight. I am induced to
ommunicate the public.
I dreamed"l was in th? Federal City in

and magnificent house, the (lately, and loft)
pillars whereof drew my attention so much
that I was filled with amazement, and fee

concluded that he Has nothing less thar

queflions, as he stOod tliere for no othei
pnrpofe ihan to gratify the enriofity of al
Itrangers that came to visit the city.—En
cotlraged by his looks and kind expreffioits,
I allied him whose superb hotife it was : —
he told me it b< longed to the old ch:el

had amassed a large fortune, at:d was now
fwpervifor of the city, with all the pom

pity that ill this free and equal government
where it has been ulight us to despise kiag:
with all their pageantry,that our chief ma
gistrate should imitate them. Fie replied thai
it was not his fault so much as our forefa
thers, who allowed fuel] large salaries anc
erected i'uch magnificent buildings as thoft
are, pointing to three that I had liot ob
served before, which appeared to be equal
to ,my pa aces in Europe, the very fight ol
which filled me with, horror, and catiied
me to ejaculate in the following manner.
—O America ! this great and populous
city which thou prdeft thyfelf on, will
cause thy ruin—the very figi t of these
magnificent buildings carries with every
republican the idea of subordination—that
liberty and equality which our forefather;
ardently ffrusgled far, is entirely prepon
derated by ostentation, influence.and i.or
ruption—lliou art fti'.ed wife among the
nations, and thy manners are jpandid nd

of blood—Learn, Aneiica, before it is too
