MORE FEDERALISM.
Unduly to bias the election, letters
have been circulated in various direc-
tioni, by the tory federalifts, contain
ing the jnoft unfounded infinuatiohs
against the republicans generally, and
the Candidates for office in particular.
Indeed, a leading federalift, who pro
feffes to be a follower of the meek and
lowly Jesus, a good, an honefl, avir
tuous, an honorable man—this man,
(who lives within an hundred miles of
this office, and who will read this Ga
zette,) who ranks high in the estima
tion of his party and of the executive,
has -addressed letters to some of the re
publicans, tampering with their integ
rity, by offering them offices and pro
motion if they would turn federalifts—
This is one way in which these men,
who claim all the virtue of the state,
sport with the honor and privileges of
a free people ! this is true federalifm !
this is the Order of the Old School !—
On a future occasion perhaps we may
point out this friend of order by name,
we thall if we judge it necessary, or
if some of the Republicans of Ando
ver should hot prove a check to his
nefareous career.
The good man, who offers prefer
ment to republicans who turn traitors
to jhe rights of man, had better flick
to the Law and the teftimopy he
will never beguile true whigs with his
paltroon offers of petty commissions!
Died, on the 12th inf. of the quinfey,
Caroline, aged two years, youngest
daughter of Nathaniel Green, Esq. of
Bofcawen.
Thus has the infant's blameless spirit fled,
Thus its fair form has mingled with the dead :
Yet all those know, who in our Saviour trust,
Such gain in death the blessings of the just.
“ Welcome ! fewest Cherub ?" th' Elysian choirs
resound
'Mongft Heaven's fair jewels, Carol,!ns is

—, In 'his town, Capt. Jos. East
man, ago about 80 — One of the oldest
men in town, and one of'the frjlfettkrs

fally discharged the duties of agood mem
ber of society, a kind husband, a tender
parent, he has departed to that better and
happier world, in peace with heaven —•
leaving a numerous offspring, to rejuice
in the well grounded hope of his eternal
felicity with the faints above.
WAR! WAR ! WAR! WAR!!
On Monday last, a Rumour was
in circulation among the federalifts in
this town, that FIFTEEN THOU-
I SAND men had embodied in Ken
tucky, with a determination to march
in and take possession of New Orle
ans, &c. that they bad sent a special
messenger to the President for direc
tions how to proceed—and that they
were resolved to proceed, whether he
gave directions or not—that they de
termined not to wait the issue of ne
gotiation-hut to take possession of
New Orleans and open the port of
deposit there for American produce
coming down the Miffiflippi.
This is the substance of the rumour,
as we heard it. We do not at present
believe it to be so—though we know
that federalifts wish it —that the lead
ers of the party in and out of Congress
Ihave used all their art, all their talents
j at inflammatory declamation, to blow
lup the paffi'ons of the Weftern peo
; ple info a flame, to urge them on to
I rash measures—to bring the country
:into a War with France and Spain-—
I this the tories and apostate whigs have
long, long most ardently fought; this
theythink would bring us to a closer
connexion with Mother Britain, to an
* alliance offenfae and defenJive ! this
would consummate the fondeft wishes
of the tory federalifts. But we trust
• that the Authorities and the Govern
ment of America will long be direct
ed, in relation to ouf foreign connec
tions, by the wife and magnanimous
policy of a Washington arid a Jef
ferson, Negotiation before War-
and that the favorite motto of every
honed, genuine American republican
will forever be, " Peace, Commerce &
honest FriendJhip with all nations—
entangling Alliances with none."
Every man will readily fee the best
interest of America embraced by this
mild pacific policy—and no one, but
such modest men ashave declared they
have no confidence in the executive,
will doubt a moment, the determina
tion of our government to protect the
rights of our citizens, and to extend
the avenging arm of justice in their
defence, when their rights are infring
ed'and justice is denied, by the rash
ness or caprice of any nation whatev
er—Spamfh, French or English.
The denial of the right of deposit at
the port of New Orleans, without as
signing another place, is an undoubted
infraction of the treaty with Spain ; —
. but it is believed to be the ad of an in
[ dividual, unauthorifed by the King of
'Spain— and shall the U. States fly to
arms, and then negociate? No—they
will firjl attempt negbeiation—if that
fails, it will be time enough then to re
sort to war!v
{ Were it not a serious fubjed, it is
I truly laughable to fee the pleasure viji
[ble on the countenances of our ardent
\ federalifts, on the report of the Ken
!tuckians embodying for war ! Query
—is it absolutely confident for these
religious men to love war so ?
I In contradiction to the reports free
:ly circulated refpefting the contempt
in which President Jefferson holds
all religious institutions, we copy the
following extract of a letter written to
a friend in Mifflin county, Penn, from
the Rev. William Parkinson, Chap
ilain of Congress, as it is given in the
Lancaster Intelligencer :—— 66 I have
moreover the fatisfa&ion of faying,
that the President, notwithstanding all
the clamour about his Infidelity, has
never miffed but one of my meetings
in the Capitol while in the city."
v-.
The last accounts from France as
sure that every thing looks favorably
to our country there. What a pretty
figure we should make,if we proclaim
ed war, we did not know for what, be
cause a few fellows were clamorous,
and who would be the last to fight, or
, perhaps would take Shelter in foreign
countries till the war was over, and
then would only return to govern us.
The conduct and publications of
the Federal partizans are calculated,
if not designed, to excite the ardent
Spirits among our Weftern Brethren,
to ads of reprisal upon the Spanish or
IFrench poffeflors of New Orleans.—
;inconfiftent with a state of peace, and
! to the inturruption of the pending ne.
I gociation. Such mad policy deserves
not merely censure, but execration.
The individuals authors apd abettors
of it pught to be feafonabFy and par
ticularly pointed out to the public.
No rational man who examines
the political state of the Union, can
doubt, as to the re-election of Mr.
Jefferson to the Presidency.
When that event takes place, it is to
be hopety that federal oppoJition will
peafe to agitate the public mind, and
disturb the tranquility and happiness
,of society. Until that period wemuft,
perhaps, expert that the prefect or
ganized opposition will continue with
^1 fs bitterness and rage, unless the
State Elections should previously be*
pome so Republican as co furniffi an
effectual check. 4
An intelligent gentleman, who has
lately travelled through Connecticut,
assures us that the Republicans in that
State are united, determined and fpir,
ited ; and notwithstanding all federal
impediments, it is generally expected
that they will eventually triumph.
Tharisthe opinion ofthe well-inform
ed of both parties.
Wajbington, Feb. 16. On Monday
Mr. Ross made a long speech in the
Senate on the situation of the coun
try as affeCted by the measures pursu
ed at New-Orleans. We were not
present ; but from the information we
have received his objed appears to
have, been the adoption of measures
for immediately taking possession of
New-Orleans, without any prelimi^
nary negotiation. In the course of
his remarks he alluded to certain res
olutions he meant to propose without
reading them. He had spoken on
the fubje& for more than an hour
without interruption, when he made
some remarks and alluded to circum
stances which Mr. Wright considered
as confidential. He accordingly
moved that the galleries should be
cleared, which, in obedience to a rule
of the Senate, immediately took place.
It is very much to be regretted that
this speech was not fully taken. In^'
deed we hope that Mr. Ross will pre
sent it to the public. If we are not
mifinformed, its publication would
speak a language too intelligible to
be misunderstood. It would then
unequivocally appear whether there
is noc a body of men—that body who
have loft the national confidence—
who are bent on war; and who, in the
desperation of their misfortunes, are
ready, nay anxious to plunge the
country into ruin, to gratify party
ends.
But, thank God, the people of A- 1
merica are firmly attached to peace
and good governmebt. They will
preserve peace so long as national
honor and the public good require it.
But should unfortunately the period
ever arrive when national honor and
the public good shall demand the a?
venging arm of war, the energies of
the people concentered in a govern,
ment rich in their confidence will
constitute the strongest and the fafeft
barrier to invaded rights.

A most melancholy and heart rend
ing feene took place near Dover in
England, the latter end of Nov. last.
A Dutch transport, having near 500
fouls on board, was driven on shore,
474 of which perished, includging 29
women and children ! Imagination
cannot describe the horrors attending
, this disaster. The floating bodies of
the fufferers, especially of the women
and children, were as distressing to
the eye, as their shrieks were to the
heart of humanity.
