REMOVED..
FOR SALE,
TUESDAY, MARCH 24, 1861;
The art and address you assumed, dazzled
for a time, in the eye of a sensible, virtuous,
and intelligent people. You audaciously
assumed a tattered remnant, and eulogized
it as the mantle which had fallen from the
chariot of an afeending Washington.
Men among you, who had rarely yifited the
dusty feats of public worship, burst forth in
a violent, but in an ignorant and untutored
zeal for the Christian faith. They rushed
into the parilh-churches, with a warm cry
of "make way, 1 am here," while the peo
ple who had usually attended there, ftaredat
the Grangers, and wondered where they
came from.—Men in feats of justice, who
had never made any public proteffion of the
Christian religion wept,over llluminifm, &
the prevalency of heresy. This was soon
divulged by a sagacious and wary People.
They very soon saw, that this was altogether
an attempt to render the holy Religion of the
Gospel, a bat harfc for politicalfraud. — IJef
ferson, because he contended on principle
against the unintelligible creed of Authana
tius (which is now renounced by the Episco
pal churches in the country) or rather, be
cause he condemned peffecutions for not be
lieving it, was reviled by you, as an heretic
believing in twenty Gods —and those were
the most abusive, who never gave evidence
that they believed inoNE.—The People of
New-England are, and always have been,
wifely and understandingly attached to the
Christian Religion —and therefore would
not willingly have ) president who is an a
theist or 'deift. These laudable feelings
were at bnce seized on; as the property of
your party, and because Mr. Jefferfon, in an
argument, to illustrate his petition, that all
persecutions for religious opinions were
wrong, and being then on the point of per
secutions and martyrdoms for not believing
the creed of Athanafids, said, that whether
a man believed that there was one God only
or twenty Gods, so long as he did not in
jure his neighbour, he could not be punifh
'ed by the civil authority, your party was all
in @n uproar. The alarm was spread, and
reached from paper to paper from pulpit to
pulpit, until tile People were compelled by
dint of noise, to examine the cause.
When a full and candid examination took
place, they saw that the sentiment was not
only philosophical and proper, but that it
had its foundation in the Christian Religion
itfelf.—“ Who art thou, O Man that judg
eft thy brother f" Besides this, they found
that it was their own voice, given in the
most solemn and deliberate mantier. For
in the Constitution, they had themselves de
clared, that " no fubjea (hall be hurt, mo
lested, or reftfained, in his person, liberty,or
estate, for wqrfliiping God in the manner &
season most agreeable to the dictates of his
own cbnfcience, Or for his religious prolef
fion or sentiments ; provided he doth not
disturb the public peace, or obftrud others
in their religious worship.'*

YOU may dress wrong in the habiliments
of right, and fraud and injury in the robes of
justice and mercy ; but you can never con
ceal the djfguife for any considerable length
of time. The sedition law wks quite an un
necessary one, because the incidental powers
of government are* adequate to its own de
fence and protection, or in fad, gave a deep
wound to the Constitution. If the Govern

no necessity for it : if it cannot, then the
Constitution depends on the will of the Le

and it was evident, that you considered the
Sedition-Law as an engine necessary to your
tyranny.

[I DOL. 50 CTS. PER ANNUM
The news of Mr. Pinckney's being difiniffed by
the Directory is confirmed. What an awful crilis
does this make in the affairs of this country ? Yet
awful at it is,it was forefeen and predicted by the
republicans the moment the infamous treaty with
Great-Britain was ratified. They sere certain
France would never tolerate such an explicit de
parture from pur neutrality and open violation of
our mbit sacred engagements with her. Solemn
as is the afpelt of our affairs, they are precisely
wh4e a wicked adminifiration have long wished
to fee them. -It war with France was not a fa
vourite object with ,lhe Prelident's ministry, why
was-J^y the greatest enemy France ever had, and
who'had just libelled the French Minister, lent to
Greer-Britain ? Why was a treaty made by
which America Sacrificed every thing but its hos
tility to that republic ? Why was government on
all occasions, so partial to the Britilh ? Why were^
tories every where promoted to office? Why °
has Morris so long ftept in France ? Why was
Munroe re-called ? Why was King, an English
man at he. rt, and a bitter enemy to France, sent
to the Court of St. James ? Why was Mr. Jeffer
fon opposed ? In Short, why was a thousand
things done which could have had no other object
than so embroil us with that nation ?
• Americans reflect? It is timeto express to the
Federal Government, in refpe&ful but firm lan
guage, your Sentiments on the alarming state of
your public affairs—let the President know there
is nothing you with for so much as peace and
friendship with France—nothing you deprecate so
much as war with France—nothing you deprecate
so much a& war with that Republic, or an alliance
offensive and defensive with Great-Eritain. —If the
British treaty muit be the price of the peace and
friendship, in God's name let it go—it was found
ed in iniquity, it was carried by art and corruption
and there is no way of healing our ^wounded hon
or, or repairing our violated faith, but in rescind
ing the articles of that execrable contrast, which &
haye^iven jyft umbrage to our allies.
trate ; and Jefferfon has laid no more o a
the fubjedf.
But Jefferfon has, from bones being dif
coyered of a lize too large for any fpeciesof
animal now on the earth, suggested that the
accounts given by Moses may relate to the
posterity of Adam only, and to a renovation,
of the world, as has been suggested by ma
ny pious and learned men, as well in the
former as in the latter times, and he has-been
barked at for this idea, which had been
published full a century ago; and he has
been mal treated by boys and (triplings who
never read the bible on any occasion what
e.™° This affeaation for the love of re
ligion, is now understood as gross hypocrisy,
and a political fraud, and your party are dai
ly losing influence as their plots are difcotei-
The people in this country ; who are ad
vanced in life, remember the earneff peti
tions, vehemently railed on all occasions for
the overthrow of the Romifh Church, that
whore of Babylon, and of the Pope, that
man of fin. When they have seen your
party lately in tears at the overthrow of the
Romifh priesthood, and at the subversion of
a religious tyranny, under which millions
have groaned for ages, and which has wash
ed all Europe so frequently with blood—•
they stand astonished at the mighty change.
When you contend against the IPrminati
and infidelity, you ought to reflect, that there
is no way in which the holy Religion of the
Gospel can be so much injured in the minds
of men, as by making it an engine for poli
tical purposes. The author of it would
have no concern in political difputes.-~
" Who hath made me a ruler or a judge a
mong you ? Give to C^far the things that
are C^far's, and unto God the things that
are God's"
The maxim of your party, which may be
Considered as the foundatoin hone of all your
politics, is that the Democracy will overturn
the Government ; that is, that the People will
run away with their own interest, and de
stroy themselves ; that they are not, therefore
fit to be trusted with their own concerns.
There is no evidence to maintain this hypo
thesis ; we have been under our own man
agement, in peace and in war for more
than twenty-five years, and for all that time
have been a great, flourishing People.
You conceive, that if you can, by a cun
ning mode of administration, contrive to get
the people out of their own hands, and a
way from themselves, and place them under
the Heads of Departments and your own
wife association, balanced by a Standing ar
my, that you could make them very happy.
When any of us have doubted of your Sin
cerity, your ability, your wisdom, or recti
tude, you have had recourse to abusive lan
guage, to noisy railings, and to open Slan
ders. FEDERAL'IS.
