Men compoilng Inch an infiiturion can have no at
tachment to the rights of the people, inafmuch, as
they are independent of them, and not accountable
torhsm.—In all ages ami at all times, have they
been inimical to the liberties of mankind. They
are engines by which the people have been deprived
of their birth-right and reduced tollavery. To you,
my fellow citizens, do I appeal, whether the gene
myre

tant idea of mv being in favour of an iultitutton, fo
dangerous and deftructwe. 1 dare r.ffert that it tie

• contempt would l reject ihe rffer of being made ge
nera li fit mo to an armament, fo detrimental to the
true interrit of Americans. Bat ftrongly as J re
probate on idea of this kinci, yet my country may on
all occafions command my lervices, either in re pul
ling foreign invafion, or Oippwfling inrernal inmr
yection. Unconftitutional oppofition to law, (hall
always be an inducement with me to exert my fe If
with the militia of the country for reducing thetur
bulent, and lor bringing u order the tumultuous.
As (bon however at the end for which we took up

the character of a Soldier. for that of a Citizen.

Fellow Citizens,
AT your refpective County Courts in April next,
you will be railed upon to elect a Senator to
represent the diftrict of which you are citizen*, in
the ftate legiflarure.
The people have a fight to receive early infor
ination of a candidate’s intention, who offers for an
office, to which they have the executive right of
election, that their choice may be confidered With
the importance of the truft. The moral and politi
cal character of the Candidate, is a fubject worthy
of their confideraticn, and one which requires time
• nd afcduiiy properly to inveftigate.—Under fheie
impreflions, and at a period earlier than the prelent,
1 have presented my ft If before my follow citizens,
as a candidate for their fuff ages, at the Senatorial
election) but wilhing to increale the publicity of
|ny intentions, 1 have reiterated my applicati
on through the channel of the public papers, and
pojie that in the exercife of the mind on the above
fubject, the event tnay be favourable to the Free
