er tide, it would bare been ill timing oT matters
for them so to do. They, finding the iflaud of
England too warm for them, emigrated to Amer
ica. They complained bitterly of being peife
cuted on account of religion ; and went about to
ereft a pure church, that ihould have no head
but Jesus Cjirift. A few Quakers, or witches,
efpyed a little alloy or leaven in their creed ;
which to get rid of they hanged out right ; that
is to fay, right or wrong ; perhaps expeding the
inheritance would be their own. But, alas, how
little can any of us promise ourselves in this tran
sitory and fluauating state! A few, (whether
emigrants or born in this new land of light and
liberty, I am not able to fay) not thinking it cle
ver to Sacrifice human flefh to a God who delights
in mercy more than facrifice, sent an express to
England, defiriog them to stop the torrent of
blood that American fields were then drinking
and like to be gorged with. The paffiament of
England hearkened to their prayer, and perhaps
glad of an opportunity to regulate their family
matters, interfered and forbid the shedding of
blood on account of religion or witchcraft ; and
were so merciful as to favor and furnish such as
desired with a few of their orthodox church min
isters ; whether at their own expense or not who
ever amongst us has bad a quarrel wi h his min
ister, or has found fault with the manner in which
he was fettled, bad liberty to dissent and take his
money with him, in case he could procure a legal
certificate from the church minister that he at
tended ; and whoever by this stratagem has been
brought to acknowledge the Pope of England to
be more orthodox than the Pope of Rome, or than
our dissenting ministers, has had a chance to get
his will, and in some instances perhaps save a trifle
of money. But, to return from my digression :
When Americans had voluntarily put their necks
under the yoke and submitted to the authority of
England, their eoterprifing spirit and genius led
them to take a summary view of the country, and
confider its produdions and resources. When
they had done this, they promised themselves
much gain in the way of commerce ; and having
power, they monopolized it to themselves ; the
rapid population of America, its produaions and
resources exceeding all calculation, England grew
jealous of her, and fearing left the should soon
feel her own importance, in order to keep us un
der proper fubjedion, concluded they had a right
to bind us in all.cafes to tax, without reprefenta
tion ; and this conduct of England towards A
merica, roofed some few spirits who made use of
every art and stratagem in their power, to ftimu
-late their fellow citizens. I might have mention
ed that whilst those things were in agitation, ma
ny a remonstrance and petition was sent from A
merica to England, to which little or no regard
was paid.. CANDIDUS.

0 Republicanism of Rhode Island.
The late election in Rhode Island
has terminated most favorably to the re^
publican interest. Gov. Fenner, and
Lieut. Gov. Potter, republicans, are re
chofen ; a republican senate is elected
by an average majority of about 500 ;
Gen. Staunton, the republican candidate
for Congress, is chosen by a majority of
894; and Christopher Ellery, jun. Esq.
fytawblican, is appointed federal fena
he state officers appointed by the
■embly, are in unison with the
[Bee.
The New England State of Rhodes
Island is freed from her federal delusion
—at heriate elections the tory junto
was entirely routed and dispersed—no
speckled charader now bolds an office in
that state, the government is in the
hands of the whigs, the men of '76, its
only rightful administrators—Not only
her senators and representatives to Con,
grefs, but her governor, state legislature,
and all hetyudicial officers are purely
republican—Newyork also has follows
ed the example. The framer of the
British treaty is no longer to be governs
or of the extensive and powerful state
of Newyork. The Creolian Cataline
is defated in all his base attempts to pros
trate our liberties at the feet of the Bri
tish tyrant —The hoary veteran Clinton,
like the Roman Cincinnatus, is again
called to save the state from the de^
ftru&ion, with which a British faßian
threatened it. Her legislature is also
purged from the remaining leaven of
Toryifm—and the fame spirit now ap
pears to defend and secure our liberties,
which influenced the people of America
to acqire them. The short reign of the
Tories, has convinced the world, that
they will ever, when entrusted with pow
er, apply it to the deftruflon of the lib
erties of the people, from whom they
Derived it. Let them, therefore, be
protested by our laws, in the enjoyment
of their own liberty and property, but
never, never let them again be entrusted
with the proteHion of the liberty and
property of the people. [Bep. Ledger.

It is now reduced to a certainty that a
majority of both houses of the new Con
gress as well as the executive are truly
Republican. Os the Representatives
there will be at lead feventv two whigs,
and of course but thirty four tories at
the most, though it is said there will not
be even that pitiful number—What a
marvellous change, in so short a time ;
conversions were pever more rapid since
the days of the apostles, and it is to be
hoped that the dodrines of republicans
ism, will be as extensive as those of
chriftianity. [Re,. Ledger.
