HIGH FEDERALISM. '
THE muse unfofter'd, in this weftern clime,
UnfkillM in numbers, yet presumes to rhyme ;
The good she dares revere, the great refpe&,
And vice and fraud in every shape detect*
Should IIM— — — —'s infidel advance,
And prove his dodrines ratify'd in France,
Show that eternal sleep is there decreed,
And tell his faaion they have nought to dread,
She looks contempt upon the letter'd irawe,
Alert in scribbling, in sedition brave.
, When bold impiety usurps the foul,
Ambition knows no limits, no controul ;f
When foreign gold finds access to the heart,§ "^
The traitor fills his country at the mart.

the United States.
WRITTEN BY A YOUNG LADY. .
HAIL, Adams, bail ! Columbia's fav'rite sage!
Pride of thy Ctuotry, glory of thy age ;
No longer now by public cares oppreft, =
Long may'ft thou live, by sweet retirement bleft.
Long may thy virtues bless thy native plain,
Where heaven-born peace & independence reign.
To thee thy grateful country still shall bring
An incense fleeter than the flowers of spring.
Yes, it shall bring that praise so justly due,
And with revolving years thatpraife renew,
Though base detradors every art employ,
The well earn'd meed by falfhood to destroy.
Lyon and his confed'iates strive in vain,
To bring reproach upon thy honor'd name,
Nor can their }oh'ntus breath attaint tb, jpotlsjsfam.
Fame has for thee a deatblefs wreath prepar'd,
Thy brilliant deeds jhall meet theirjuft reward ;
Thy name by all the great and good rever'd,
Shall by Columbia's daughters be ador'd,
With that of thy compatriot Washington,
By whom such great & glorious deeds were done.
Innumerable toils ye both endur'd,
Till peace and independence were fecur'd.
And can Columbia e'er ungrateful prove ?
Can the her friend, her favorite cease to love ?
Forbid it heaven ! whene'er to this (he's led,
Msy tenfold vengeance burst upon her head.
The pangs that rent her breast what tongue can
' tell,
When her lov'd hero bade the world farewell 1
And when at length thy glorious spirit flies,
To meet our Washington io yonder Ikies,
Ah ! then again fall every patriot mourn,
And female tears bedew thy sacred urn.;

which prefixed in the be ain of the Postels,was not jo
malignant a one as that which dictated the jubfe

the Walpole Museum of March 3d. We lament
that an, min fauldthus profittuts bis talents and a
bilities, for the vile purpoje of disgracing bis conn

of the ablrft State/men which America can beafl, one
of the greatft Philosophers the new world has pro
duced. What a contrast tbeje federal posts male
between Adams and Jefferfon ! The on/, i, aim©ft
a Deity ; the other, quite a devil ! And fill, the,
and all of us, are nevertbelejs Brethren of one
Great Family ; we are all Children of one com
mon and benevolent Parent (And, after allsbeir
real and fancied excellence, Washington was a
man, (tbo' a" ver, great man,")—Adams is a
man —and Jefferfon, we presume, is likewise a man
—and, for the honor of humanity and our country,
be will prone a man ENTIRELY DIFFERENT
from what his calumniators fain would make him.
Why, then, Should we wrangle about names ! why
imagine that perfections belong to one, and imper
fections to another, which man cannot attain to, or
which men but rarely peffifs ! Though menjheuld

mand of the army of Germany, as he
approached the feene of action, he fell
in with a numberof wounded, abandon

want of horses to draw the carriages in

ordered the horses to be unyoked from
several pieces of cannon that were like
wise retreating, faying, that these brave
men were better worth saving than a few
pieces of cannon. When Gen- Moreau

we lay fix weeks, when we got Orders
to proceed to Jerusalem. We passed
by the land of Sodom, the 20th of Jan

upon the 2d of February marched into
Go, X wretch ignoble ! for thy crimes atone,
In deep remorse, unnotic'd, and unknown ;
In feme drear cavern, far from human ken,
Philofophifewith brutes, and not with men ;
Or, if a name thy vanity would choose,
Like Empedocles, with his brazen shoes,
Go seek some savage mountain's giddy height,
And unlamented drop from mortal fight :
Then shall Columbia's sons to peace return ;
No longer shall the brand of fahion burn ;
No longer shall thl mean, degenerate Gaul,
Be here received, to plot our country's fall !
No longer shall religion be decry'd,
Nor heaven arraign'd before the bar of pride.

that city.—The religion here is that of
Mahomet, and there are a great number
of pilgrims. The city which is about
as laige as Dundee, in Scotland, is 40
miles from the sea ; the 4ineft building
in it is a Temple, formerly dedicated to
the Sun, but now belonging to the
Turks. ' There is another Temple built
over the place where our Saviour was
buried, and an image of the Virgin Ma
ry of gold, to which the pilgrims pay
their devotion. There is to be seen,
likewise, the Cleft of the Rock which
rent when our Saviour gave up the
ghost.—We lay there three weeks, and
then came to this town, namely Bethle#
hem, ten miles from Jerusalem. This
town is about as large as Perth, with some
fine Greets in it, the place where our
Saviour was born, is now covered with
a chapel, (about as large as the steeple
of Dundee) where the Christians wor#
ship.
“ The most remarkable thing in this
country, is the cheapness of provision,
&c. Wine is to be had at two pence
per bottle, lemmons one penny per
dozen, oranges the fame ; figs three half
pence per pound ; butter, milk, and
cheese, also very plenty. It may, with
propriety, still be styled the Land of
Promise, a land flowing with milk and
honey ; for there is every thing in great
abundance; in short, this country almost
wants for nothing, money being very lit#
tle used. I got a chest made at Jeru#
falem, of the wood of Lebanon for two
shillings, which would have cost me two
guineas in Britain."
The advantages of such an Office will
be very great, both to feller and purchaser ; their
terms can be easily known, and the purchaser will
be saved the trouble of a voyage, and uncertain
enquiry for land.

in this country, may have their business done with
care and attention, and on moderate terms.
