0 News a scarce article —we have but |
few paragraphs; those are of trifling
import :— But,
Qgfr The Essay of the learned and pious
Dr. W atts, in the firfl page of this pa
per, must give pleasure, we think, to the
candid reader, whether a republican or
federqlift, whose catholicism induces him
,'to toijh freedom, happiness and " peace
on earth," with " good willto man."
CT The Canvasser, gives us information |
on a fubje&, truly interesting to every
man who glories in the honor of being
an American, and loves his country,
Tis of serious consequence, that we
form a just opinion of our Rulers :
While the honest man despises fyco=
phancy, he will pay due honor to those
in authority ; but will cautiously avoid
a hypocritical or blind veneration of
any man whatever.

faults, yea crimes, of which he is in-'
capable.—He is now by the Voice of
The Majority, by the commanding
Voice of "The People," constitution
ally placed in the highest office of our
government: He is amenable to the
fame law with 'the poorest peasant in
the country ; he is responsible to the
People ;— Let the Acts of his admin
istration decide his character; by them
let him (land or fall, in the esteem of
American's ;— Ifhe infringes the Con
nitution ; if his policy endangers Lib
erty; if he sets the Law and Justice
at defiance, by maladministration ;
the Representatives pf that Peo
ple who eleded him, .will impeach
him; the Constitution will thunder in
bis ears a judgment, far more terrible
than all the anathemas of a Britijkfac
tion ; and the Sentence of insulted
Freemen, the just vengeance of an
injured People, would hurl him into
oblivion, abd real republicans would
bestow on him the contempt he would
in such case richly merit.
While we do not fubferibe to the infat
libilit, of any man under heaven ; nei
ther Adams hor Jefferson— yet,
let us not pre-judge any—Let us ad
mit that a JfTfersOn md, possess ex
cellencies and virtues, as well as an
Adams-— And let Us, in honor to the
American Character; in justice to him,
;as a man and as a ruler. Confer Upon
:him so much confidence at least, as
Ihall “ give firmnefs and effe& to his
-legal administration" of our affairs.—^
All the REAL " friends of order,"
and all the true and honest federalifts,
who wish the prosperity of our coun
try and government, will certainly do
this; even tho' their prejudice ffiould
be too strong to allow them to grant
him their indulgence for his uninten
tional errors — errors consequent from
tie frailty of humanity..

proceedings of the Citizens of the tow, of Hilfarougb,
on the fours bof Jul, ioft. and oblige bis bubl. ftrots.
“JAMES EATON,
" SAMUEL GIBSON,
" ASAPH WILKINS."
" At Hill Trough, the qlffi of July, the ever me
morable Birth-Day of America, was noticed in a
manner worthy of Republican Freemen. At 12
o'clock a procession was formed in the following
order ; ift, A troop of borfe, commanded by Lt.
Wm. Howard ; zd, A light infantry company,
commanded by Capt. Afaph Wilkins ; 3d, An in
fantry company, commanded by Capt. Wm. M'-
Clintock ; 4th, The Committee; §th, Clergy ;
6th, Music; ytb, Strangers ; Bth, Citizens. At
one o'clock, the procession moved to the meet
ing house, under marshal music ; after the per
formance of a piece of music, Col. Benj. Pierce
called the attention of the citizens and soldiers, by
an address, in which he took a review of the wife
and energetic government of the United States,
the most conducive to human happiuefs, by pro
moting public and private virtue, national power
and refpaability, and advancing the interest o'
piefy, religion, and morality ;—He noticed the
tyranny and oppression of Great Britain, which
led to the revolution, and to the independence of
the U. States ; recapitulated the distresses of war,
and the tribute of applause due to those veterans
who (attained the campaigns of that trying scene ;
—He pointed out the great utility of a well or
ganized and disciplined Militia in the U. States,
composed of the owners of the foil, in'order to
render every pretext for a large standing army, A
the bane of liberty, as contemptible as prep&d
rods ;—He concluded, with a tribute of refl
to the memory of our beloved Washington, q
the many heroes who offered themselves a fia
fice in the defence of our country ; and pgj
haodfome compliment to the troops prefent„r
their soldierly appearance and promptitude in dis
cipline.— —The rev. Mr. Slade then made an ap
propriate prayer, after which the rev. Mr. Barns
delivered an oration ; a piece of music was then
performed, after which the affepbly returned in
procession as before, to the green on the common,
where the citizens had provided a table covered
with excellent provisions, where nearly three
hundred persons partook of an agreeable repast ;
after which the following toasts were drank, un
der a difeharge of mufquetry:
lit. The 4th day of July, the ever memorable
Birth-Day of America ; May She triumph in
justice and plenty, till time (hall be no more.
2d. The State of Newhampfhire ; May (he,
like the fun, unobfeured, thine in virtue and pa
triotism.
3d. Thomas Jefferfon, President of the United
States ; May his administration be consistent
with the true principles of Republicanism.
4th. Aaron Burr, Vice President of the U. S.
£th. The memory of General Washington ;—
May his patriotic virtue be recorded and held
sacred in the breast of every American.
6th. The United States of America ;—May
their Union never be diflblved.
7th. The Militia of the United States; May
their promptitude to discipline be the bulwark of
Liberty, and may they never draw their (words,
nor charge their bayonets, but in a good cause.
, Sth. The faithful hwfbindmen—May they be
secured in the cultivation of their foil, and may
tyrants never have it in their power to wrest from
them the fruits of their labours.
gth. The heroes who boldly fought and fell in
the defence of American liberty ; May ages yet
to come revere their bravery.
ioth. the Veterans who waded through fields
of toil and blood, in support of the independence
of America ; May they feel themselves amply re
warded in the enjoyment of the firft prize in the
wor|d. 1
nth. Agriculture, Mandfaaures, and Com
merce of America.
izth. May the lovers of royalty be permitted
to emigrate,till they land in a kingly government.
Ij. Literature, Religion, and Morality ; Ma,
they be fufficient barriers against infidelity, and
every other oppofite.*
14th, The Constitution ; May that be the poo
ler star with all those in authority for their polit
ical condud.
i,h. Out Minihers abroad ; Peace with all
nations ; no alliance with any ; may we be just
to all, but duped by none.
:6th. The American Fair ; Ma, they never
bestow their smiles but on those who have forti
tude and spirit to support the independence of
their country.
" After the pronuciation of each toast, the fir
iagwas performed by each company alternately,
and the celebration closed with three huzzas. =
After which, the citizens repaired to their several
homes in peacg, without the least misfortune to
any one."
We notice, with the highest pleasure,
the manly triumphs of honest republic
cans, over the insidious arts And intrigues
of the enemies of rational liberty, the
disorganizing " friends of order."
Federalists their own Correctors.
Some of the federal printers, a few weeks since,
published io their pipers that the President had
sent a “ most cordial invitation to Thomas Paine
to return to this country, and offered him one of
the public (hips, free of expense," &c. No man
of common sense, took notice enough of this fitly
report to contradia ir, or even make it a fabje&
of a minute's conversation— The " friends of or
der" had to stand their own corredors, and in a
fit of their goodness, (perhaps " qualms of con
science,") the poor fouls declare the report to be
" An infamous lie !" got into circulation by ? omt
“ evil minded mifereant." They are at liberty
to exercise a similar candour in giving themfeives
the lie, for circulating another report, as fooliffl
as falfe, viz. that Mr Madison (the Secretary of
State) “ has ever been openl, and unt^vocall, op
posed to the condua of the Executive."
The federalifts make it a virtue now to oppose
the Constituted Authorities ; and some of them
Bogof the boner of being dismissed from office
hhe present administration—But it is a fim-
LoQonor to that of which the black angel
ECTbafted, when he was hurled headlong

smile ;" and the federal Oats (how their teeth.
PRECEPT and Practice.
Tbs Tories, or felf filed " Friends of Order."
In Prbcipt, they were wont to revere the
Constituted Authorities ; in frdaice, they belie
their pre ftffion#, and contemn, revile, persecute
and dtfpi'efully abuse the President of the United
States—Therefore, (as " by their Fruits ye (hall
know them) we set them down as falfe teachers,
babblers, hollow-hearted hypocrite#.
