[ORIGINAL]
THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES.
IT appears that Gog and Magog are coming up
to battle of the great day. It appears at the pre
fect day that popular towns in general, -are fol
lowing the evil practices of human life, and if
reformation does not take place, we mult expect
to be used no better than our filler Sodom and her
daughters, from the hand of divine providence.---
They had fullnefs of bread and idfenefs in their
' Greets ; God overthrew them, leaving them ex
amples of his holy and righteous vengeance# It
appears according to the scriptures of truth, that
pride goes before dettruttion, and haughty spirit
before a fall. What I underhand by Gog and
Magog, is the enemies to the cross of Jesus Christ;
pride, unbelief, haters of God, and defpifers of
the right way. But God in his marvellous wis
dom and power, is vifitjng the country and wil
derness with the out-pouring of his holy spirit,
and is gathering his cleft from the four winds
under heaven. Tire way that he brings them is
this, he kills them by the law and makes them
alive by his-holy spirit ; he brings them from a
-wilderness date to a slate of light and favor with
God ; and they, bear the image of his son Christ
Jesus ; whereby they cry abba father ; the eternal
spirit witnefleth with them, and makes them chil
dren of one family, bound by the ;ies of love to
a glorious world of immortal glorfa—Amen. ,

TO REPUBLICANS.
This Work is designed to disseminate Tiuth a
mong the deceived and uninformed part of your
fellow-citizens ; to wipe off the mills of delusion
from the eyes of those who are led aftfay by the
foes of the Rights of Man; and lay open to view
the designs, arts and intrigues of such characters,
and to amuse and edify those who have enlisted
under the banners of Republican!fm, as defenders
of the liberties of their country, against arbitrary
and unjust persecution. Having already received
very liberal encouragement, the Proprietors flat
ter themselves that the undertaking will prove
ficcefsful, if patronized by you. whole hands have
been often outfiretched to support the foundation
of American freedom, againtt the intrigues of a
powerful Aristocracy, who have endeavored by
mifreprefeutation, unconstitutional and improper
laws, large bodies of mercenary troops, &c. &c.
to subvert the firft principles of your government,
and render the Conflitufion useless, in order that
one more confident with their wishes, might be
reared up on its ruins. The characters and con
duct of all ranks and degrees of Citizens, will e
ver be refpeCted, and nothing shall be admitted in
the pages of the Patriot, which may introduce
either to public view, unless their pursuits evince a
difpofitiqn to sap the platform of Republicanism,
when, every measure will be taken to warn its
friends of the approaching danger, and all re
straint dispensed with, in order that the foes of
Columbia, may feel the lath of a vigilant and faith,
ful Sentinel. Advertisements will be excluded
unlefs of real importance to the Republican inter
est. °
