For the Arcus.
Cheetham, in his life of Thomas Paine,
has gone out of me biographical track to
mislead emigrants in America, and also to
prevent emigration, but his own person,
al history is a sufficient refutation of his
falsehoods. He was a poor man s«me years
ago ; and now he is a rich printer. He
enjoys all kind6 of liberty too in his acti
ons ; rs a proof of which we need only teier
'to the mann«r in which he exercises the li
g. It is really surprising that
any brains at all stiould write
proves how liule he values
not a country on the globe
where emigrants have so many advantages
as wiey enjoy in tne uimva states ; ana, in
| proportion to ihcir nd-noera they occupy
more posts of honor and profit than tne na
; tivcs. We think that no distinction what,
lever ought to prevail; and that citizens
j of honesty and talents ought to be always
j preferred, no matter where they were
| corn. Besides, the objection in itself is
almost a nullity •, for the children born here
! of emigrants, being natives, the term for,
eigners is lost alter the first generation.
Ctieetham must think other people are as
stupid as himself wnen he publishes such
trash, and calls It biography.
His book, however, will go to England
and do him credit there ; for tnat is a conn- j
try where men in power give premiums
for profi.gacy. He may soon follow him.
1 self, as his performance is nothing more
than an advertisement that he is to be sold
to the' highest bidder. Hia statue of gold
he Will probably dispense with, and take
the amount in guineas. He has cunning
enough to know mat a public monument 01
any kind would-be a mark of infamy ; but
he cA* packet the coin and pass among
strange rs%« an boldest man.
I befovc that Cnyetham would sell him
self to any tarty for a gross sum in hand :
hut, in this ’counjry, tie is not a saleable
commodity. HeJs so enveloped in an at.
niosphere ofcorreption tnat it is enough to
dissolve any party that should take him by
the hand.
