The excellent and patriotic Address to the Re-,
publican Citizens of fynefylvanja, and which
is equally applicable to every State in the
. Union, deserves the attentive perufa| bf every
honest American, and of course cannot but,
meet the approbation,of pyr readers, the length
•of which obliges us to omit a variety of inter
esting matter prepared for this day's Ledger^
Attempts farm lately made to impress the pub
lic mind with & belief, that the republicans of the
United States had instigated the late corifpiracy
of the nOgroesii the neighbourhood of Richmond
Virginia. Income of the papers it was asserted
that Jfam±M#wete likewise concerned §4<ta
the negroes had confeffed it on trial.
At the fame time firmed letters Were publiihed,
feting that a similar coofyiracy had extended to
Sonth-CaroliD#,'add that several white petfons
bad-bro already massacred, and a military force
callGdio^What is the traM in each of these par
^Ti&, reporteof ac'onfpirac, is wholly fa/fe, and
in Virginia there was not so much as the flighted
foundation for futpefting any republican Ameri
can, boroy Frenchman.,
On the contrary — one of the negroes did afttu
all, accuse Mr. WILLIAM Young of Henrico of
having been concerned ; and more, of having
bromifed to advance each % the negroes fee dob,,
lari te g* to Upon. This declaration was made
by the negro a-few moments before he was sauna
ed totoeterhity. ':':,,.
This Mr. William Young,to ivamed fflfo
federdift,
.Whatis the condu& of, the republican on this
,What would &ceodu& of the federalist have
tang had this.negro accused a Republican in the
faKiGircumfoce? : ^^ > ?
Tjiefe qaeftions are important, because the ans
wers will defecate the moral ^ political char-•
after of the 'two parties. ' P. A.
The Philadelphia Ga±tte gives the following
neat rub to itsown party : “ it is all the feme to
me, whether there are twenty devils or no devil.
Many of Jefferfon's warmest friends would have
their confclences greatly lightened, if by his philo
sophy he would prove to them the truth of the
latter part of the above aphorism. An
essay proving that there is no devil, would
gain more votes on MrJefirfon's fide than any
public exertion of 6nffi.' Nt.^ft the in
ference— Mr. Jefefon has strongly infilled oh the
, exigence ofpfoftQ^ &de&te of rewards
and punishments—and he h sure of receiving the
whole of the, democratic interest at the next e
lettion.-his greatest enemies will not deny this.
Yet if he will demonflrate the reverse of what be
has hitherto held out in writings, he will gain
more votes—and from whom could he gam,trim
but from the grateful federalist ?—from Dayton,
Pickering and othrnT fcp^rf
I The following um,og other Anecdotbshas been
related of Dlr# Jefcnpn, in proof of his infideli
ty and of his ^n tempt and even hatred of Chrif
tianity—“Warn the late. Dr. Tobn B. Smith resid

inudei principles'.ln the course of conversation
he remarked to Dr. Smith, “Why your great phi
losopher and statesman, Mr. Jefferfon, is rather'
farther gone i^ infidelity than f arn'tyand related,
in confirmation, the following anecdote —“that as,
he was once riding with Mr. Jefferfon, he express-,
ed his furp-lzethatthe people of this cotidtry take'
no better care of their public buildings." “What
building^, exclaimed Mr. Jefferfom %?W
that a church ?" replied he, pointing; to a decayed'

aftohifed, (said the other) that they pertnit.it to
be in fo,uinou, a condition.". “Z, is good, enough,

the Manger !.! Such a contemptuous fling at
the Blelfed Jffil, could Iffde from the lips of no
other than 4 deadly foe to his name.abd his catife.
“This <tory, (adds tire writer) I. had more than
onlfe from Dr. Smith, and he told it to I know pot
how many, lapplied to one gentleman whom!
knew had heard it ftgm Dr. Smithland we agreed
in the relation. There is no poffibillty of con
tradityw it, -except by the improbable fappofi
tiori thatMazzej told a; downright fallhood, (a
malicious dne too, about his friend. “ Dy. Smith•
was one @ltbe mott Gkhfal, zealous and rucceff
rot minivers in all this country. His memory
will long be precious to all who knew him."
?<ONTRAST=from the fammt Gazette.
The anonymous author of a late publication in
New-York, entitled, “ 'Serious Considerations on .
Eleftion of a President, has perverted a tiuth; hon
orary to Mr. Jetferfop by mistaking the words bf
the Rev. Dr. Saltth. I That venerable 'character
told the truth of the story as fallows ; Mazzei on
puffing a church, which the Episcopalians had fuf
faed logo to decay;' after being debarred the
privileges of forcing other denominations to fop-
Dort them, addressed the phitofopher Jefferfon thus
"Why do you leave your churches in so mean a
condition 1 Our Italian ' ptiefts would not conde
feend to enter them,!" Probably they would
not,^pli,4 thefage ^ Ulofopher, "and yet meaner
places were deemedgihnd enough to diftence truth
in by him who. was faV in a manger." Were Dr.
Smitfralive, lie wouw, it is presumed, bear testi

A CARD.
Dr. SPALDING,
Gives Information that the Kine Pox has
had its usual course upon two of his patients,
who were firft inoculated. The disease, it
it may be called one, has been so flight as
not to prevent their usual occupation, nor
cause a lingfe complaint of indifpofition.l—
—bf those had a single puftulc. If
there had not been that particular appear
ance of the inoculated arm, it would have
been very doubtful whether either of them
had been inftaed ; as no other character
ittic of the disease appeared.
Ha has twenty other patients laboring
under the different Hages of the kine-pox,
any of whom may be seen on application.
One of these has felt some flight indisposi
tion, but not fufficient to prevent his usual
adivity: He has but four pocky eruptions.
—Two who are far advanced in the disease
have experienced no indisposition and will
not have a tingle pustule.
' Dr. Spalding feels an assurance in faying,
that these three leading fads are well eftab
lilhed by innumerable experiments. r.The
kine-pox is a sure and effectual preventive
of the small-pox. 2d. The kine-pox is in
comparably lighter than the inoculated small
pax, seldom attended with any indisposition.
3d. The kine-pox is not contagious, it can
not be communicated to one person from
another, except by inoculation, therefore
any one in a family may fafely have the
kine pox, without any fear of inte^ing the
others. ^b 1 ' ;# "
