A Proclamation,
for a Day of Public Humiliation, Fasting and PRAYER.
AS we are dependent upon the mercy of Almighty God for the present life with all its comforts; and also for his blessing on those means which we enjoy to obtain eternal life, it is our duty to cherish those institutions and customs that are calculated to remind us of this dependence.
For these reasons, and to perpetuate a pious and laudable usage, I do, by and with the advice of the Council, Appoint THURSDAY, the THIRTEENTH day of APRIL, next, to be observed as a day of HUMILIATION, FASTING and PRAYER, throughout this State:—and do earnestly recommend to all religious Societies of every denomination, that they assemble together on that day at their usual places of public worship, and with hearts of humility and repentance supplicate the favor and forgiveness of Almighty God.
And while we devoutly implore his Divine benediction upon our common country—let us fervently entreat him to have this State in an especial manner under his holy and superintending care, and direct and prosper the administration of its government.
And the People of this State are requested to abstain from all labour and recreation inconsistent with the solemnities of the day.
Given at the Council Chamber in Portsmouth, this sixteenth day of February, in the year of our Lord, One thousand eight hundred and nine; and of the Independence of the United States of America, the thirty-third.
JOHN LANGDON.
By His Excellency's command, with the advice of Council.
PHILIP CARRIGAIN, Secretary.
Traitors, the flying troops of Britain in Spain, give you a sample how far they would serve you, if you depended on their assistance in upsetting the general government and laws of the union.
No man is more a tyrant, than he who wants more than his share of Liberty.
To the people called QUAKERS.
His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate. Psalm vii, verse 16.
THE only matter for your consideration in reading this article is, whether what I shall say be true or false, reasonable or unreasonable.
I have remarked, that very great pains are taking by writers of the federal party, to induce you to vote at the approaching election.
If you come forth to vote as a body, your conduct must be held to the nation, either in proof of the sincerity of your profession, or their falsity.
You are all more correctly informed, on most subjects, than the people of other sects; your system wisely removes ignorance; you are all inquisitive, and must therefore believe that you cannot be in doubt, respecting the real matters in dispute between parties in this state or nation;
The approaching election is not to decide merely, which of two men is to rule over us, nor even which is most worthy to rule.
As this is the case, you must be able to decide at once on which side to vote, if you really are what you profess to be.
The federal party from its first visible formation in 1794, has constantly advocated measures subversive of civil and religious freedom: wars, armies, navies, taxes, and debts;
Their successors have for eight years kept our country in peace; crushed treason and rebellion, without using the sword; paid off millions of debt; acquired the sovereignty of a territory, one single river of which will one day afford more resources to commerce and to the carrying trade of our seaports, than all Europe, raised the value of property of all kinds to an unexampled height;
When, on the 22d June, 1807, the blood of innocent men was shed in our own jurisdiction, by British officers; when by this violence, according to the laws and customs of nations, ample cause for war was given;
If your sect held the reins of power, could it have guided our country more securely? more in the spirit of christian forbearance and love of peace—could it in such perils have better avoided the ruin, vice and immorality of warfare.
It follows, then, that if you are what you profess to be, you cannot approve the views and conduct of the federal party; and you must be, if you are actuated by the spirit of truth, friends of the present government.
You profess to hate controversy or interference with quarrelsome people: if you see them beating or abusing each other, you retire and will not be witnesses; but above all, you will consider yourselves justified in expelling any of your members, who should join one neighbour to beat and abuse another.
If these are truly and honestly your sentiments, you must of necessity uphold the government of your country, which is vilified and abused for obeying the very injunctions you profess to admire.
With the quarrels of France and England we have no concern; we do no wrong to either, and merely claim a merited good treatment.
In this predicament, we had but the alternative; to stay at home, or to arm our ships and force a trade.
Now if your sect had the national power in your hands, what would you have done, otherwise than has been done?
To arm our ships and force a trade to England was possible; but what would have been the consequence?
of the world that has adopted it. This, besides, would have been fruitless; the continent would have been shut, and you must all know that millions of our produce have been lying in England, unsold, because the market of the continent has been shut.
So that to arm would not have secured trade, but must have inevitably produced war with one nation or the other.
Would you then, I ask have attempted to force an American trade, by arms?
Or, would you not have said, "our neighbours are quarrelling; each threatens to beat us if we enter the house of another;
If this is not the language you would have used, then you are falsehearted, and there is no faith in you;
You are soon to determine by your votes, for I repeat, that to vote for the federal party, now in particular, is to vote against all that our government has done, and for all that its enemies recommended—war and its attendants.
Take council, therefore, that the mischief return not upon you; you profess to hate the shedding of blood; you shudder at being compelled to become even militia-men, to defend against an invader;
But the moment it becomes known that you can vote for wars, that moment all classes must cease to regard your professions and scruples, and must unite in demanding that they who are so active for war, shall be as liable as others to engage in it, and to lose their property, health, limbs, lives, and to part with wives, fathers, brothers, and children.

The True Convert.
My Federal Friends, I have been in various circles, through different States, and have kept the best Federal company.
There is not one in a thousand, of those who think themselves popular with the Federal club, that knows any thing of their real plan:
I have been puzzled for two years past as to the fineness of my conduct: the scandalous proceedings of the federal party, in abusing Mr. Jefferson, the present administration and the Embargo;
There are six real Tories in New Hampshire, who have been such from the year 1775;
They have combined with them three classes of men, who are aiding directly or indirectly to promote their nefarious designs.
1. Lawyers, with their technical jargon and useless ceremonies, calculated to bewilder and deceive our honest and plain dealing Farmers.
2. The regular Clergy, with their pride, avarice and thirst for power; aiming to destroy the right of conscience;
3. The importers of English merchandise, who by their connection with Great Britain, and large credit, are enabled to circulate foreign luxuries through the country;
When I reflect on my past conduct: when I behold the deluded victims of my former perfidy, strutting in chains of foreign fabric, and ornamented with all the gew-gaw trappings of slavery.
How shall we reconcile such inconsistencies? In Massachusetts the people are called upon by the Junto to petition, remonstrate, clamor, and turn rebels against the government of their choice,

BY THE MAILS.
British Friendship and Justice!
Last evening arrived the ship Ann, Capt. B. E. Russel, from Madras, after a passage of 107 days.
The Ann has been absent nearly two years. Capt. R. was detained six months by the Arabs at Mocha, and after his release, not being able to procure a cargo there, was proceeding to Penang for information, when he was captured by the English frigates Fox and Caroline, and sent to Madras, and after a long delay was tried and liberated.
The condemnation of the Ann would have been too flagrant a violation of every principle of the law of nations or of equity, for a British court of admiralty; but it would have been repugnant to their principles, to have done complete justice; Capt. R. was obliged to pay the costs of suit, and even the store hire and carting of the specie which they took out on her arrival.
Capt. R. has been imprisoned between the English and Arabs nine months, and is at a loss to decide which nation is most entitled to pre-eminence in villainy.
Came passengers, Capt Newell and Mr. Cabot, late of the brig Creole, of Boston, which was condemned at Madras for having touched at the Isle of France, on her outward passage.
Also, Mr Charles Foulkes, late second officer of the Creole.
The Brig Creole was bound to Boston with a cargo of piece goods, having touched at the Isle of France and sold her outward cargo—she was taken possession of the afternoon she was to have sailed, by order of Capt. Balton Pellew of the English frigate Phaeton.
Mr Cabot, a passenger from the Isle of France who was returning to his friends and family in this country, after a long absence, was sent on shore to Poonamallee a depot for prisoners of war, about 15 miles from Madras, where he was detained five months.
The Creole's crew was turned on shore on the burning sand, without a shelter, or the means of subsistence—it was soon ordered by Capt. Pellew (a worthy son of such a sire) to turn them naked on the beach—after wandering about several days, one of which they passed in prison, they found relief in the charity of Capt. Edwards of the American brig Brutus, in which vessel and the Emina of N. Y. they have at last arrived.
The foregoing is but a faint sketch of the unjustifiable and unprecedented treatment towards the Creole, experienced from those unprincipled tyrants of the ocean.

Government—Look Out!
The brig Stephen, the property of a respectable mercantile house in New York, cleared out with a valuable freight for New Orleans in November last, having regularly complied with the formalities of the embargo laws.
The Stephen is a coasting trader, and her cargo consisted chiefly in dry goods. The above is given on the authority of respectable merchants in this city. [Pub. Adv.

New-York Patriotism.
The following Resolutions, introduced by the Hon. De Witt Clinton, passed the Senate of New York unanimously, and in the House of Assembly, 61 to 41.
IN SENATE, JAN. 31, 1809.
WHEREAS the unjust and multiplied aggressions of the belligerent nations upon our national rights; their obstinate refusal to render justice and to listen to the most fair friendly, impartial and pacific overtures; and their unrelenting perseverance in a system of violence, rapacity and insult, have rendered it the peculiar and incumbent duty of all good citizens, attached to the rights and honor of their country, to bury in oblivion all internal difference, and to rally round the standard of the government in opposition to the unjust pretensions and outrages of foreign powers. And whereas, in defiance of every dictate of patriotism and every consideration of duty, the most unremitted and reprehensible attempts are making, with uncommon industry and malignity, and by every art of misrepresentation, to enfeeble and destroy the exertions of the general government in vindicating our national rights and honor, by endeavoring to alienate the affections of the people by opposing the authority of the laws, and by menacing a dismemberment of the union: and the Legislature deeming it an indispensable obligation, at this critical and eventful period, to discountenance these daring and factious proceedings, and to bear testimony against the insolent encroachments of foreign nations, and being fully satisfied that the conduct of the national government has been calculated to secure the resources, to preserve the peace, to maintain the honor and to promote the interests of this country:
Therefore (if the honorable the assembly concur herein) Resolved, That we repose full confidence in the wisdom, patriotism and integrity of the national administration; and that we will, at every hazard, and to the full extent of our faculties, support them against the unjust attempts of foreign powers; and if a state of peace shall be no longer a state of honor, and a continuance of aggression shall render an appeal to the sword inevitable, we pledge our lives and our fortunes in defence of the just rights of our injured country.
Resolved, That we consider the union of the states as the palladium of our national safety the guarantee of our national prosperity, and pledge of our national glory: and that every attempt to violate or sever the ties which bind the confederated states together, ought to receive the most pointed reprobation, and the most decided abhorrence. And we earnestly exhort the good citizens of this state to be vigilant and active in discountenancing and suppressing all combinations and attempts to evade or violate the laws, to detract from the authority of the government, and to impair the stability of the union; and we solemnly conjure them, by the sacred principles of liberty and patriotism, to prepare themselves for the crisis which is probably approaching, and to be ready to co-operate with each other and with the constituted authorities, in resisting and repelling the audacious aggressions of foreign nations.
Resolved, That his excellency the governor, be requested to transmit a copy of these resolutions to the President of the U. States as the sense of this state, and that our senators and representatives in congress be and hereby are requested to use every exertion to put the United States in the best condition of defence, so that we may be fully prepared to meet the dangers which menace the peace of our country. By order, "S. VISSCHER, Clerk."
The faction seeking new means to abuse the People's government.
Alarmed at the danger of the removal of the embargo, their favorite hobby horse for deluding the multitude, they now resort to the mean, insidious story of "war with England, and an alliance with France;" when the wretches well know, that the delegated voice of the people, demands only, that respect to our rights as a nation, without which we can neither sail the ocean, nor possess our land in safety—for property and even life itself, are held by a precarious tenure, when insult and injury are only opposed by cringing cowardice.—France can do us neither harm nor good, and England must remember Lexington, Bunker-hill, Saratoga, and Yorktown, when with one third our present population, and one tenth of our present resources brave Yankee boys followed her up! [Detector.]
The federal tory junto men have completed their character for infamy. It must be a mad man or an idiot that can follow them any longer. What have they done for their country, in these trying times, when orders, decrees, and an ocean covered with commissioned pirates, have driven us from our wonted element? have they united with their country to demand our rights to the sea, or have they meanly abandoned its flag and honor, abused its authority, plead an enemy's cause, and urged submission to foreign tribute, invited insurgency at home and invasion from abroad, all to obtain a little brief authority, to use and to abuse. [Ibid.]
LOOK OUT!!!
Wanted, two hogheads of Tory lies to be sent to England as a present for the starving manufacturers—they must be fresh, fat, of a good quality, and large size. As they are wanted immediately to go to England at the same time the cotton seed goes to France. The tory printers are requested to be active in providing the supply which his Majesty wants. A reward will be given for every satisfactory lie—the pay will consist of the wages of iniquity, the scorn of freemen and the curses of conscience. [Baltimore Whig.]
A handbill, circulating in Connecticut, recommends a connection between the New England States, Canada and Nova Scotia, for the protection of commerce!
A late 'London Courier,' very gravely and with much truth, observes, that the fanatics of this country are "Advocates for British connection."

COMMUNICATIONS.
Major General HENRY BUTLER is proposed as a candidate for Senator in district number two for the ensuing year—his patriotism is two well known to need comment, and it is believed he will be generally supported by his republican fellow-citizens at the approaching election.
The Federal writers persist in calling on us to remove Governor LANGDON; but they do not inform us of what act of mal-administration he has been guilty. They continue to recommend Judge SMITH, as a substitute; without deigning to disclose to us what benefits we are to derive from the change. As Citizens of New-Hampshire, we are to regard only the local concerns of our own State: as a member of the Federal compact, New-Hampshire will be most happy in cultivating Union, harmony, concord, and a good understanding with her sister States. If Governor LANGDON has constantly endeavored to promote these desirable objects he "deserves well of his country;" he is entitled to the suffrages of every free and independent American. If Judge Smith has assimilated himself with the advocates of British outrage; with the promoters of discord; with those conspirators who are plotting a dismemberment of the United States, who have seized on a moment of great National calamity to effect their diabolical purposes and are scattering the seeds of disunion throughout the country:—in short, if Judge Smith has consented to become the tool of the "Effex Juno," and to govern the State of New-Hampshire under the auspices of a faction whose motto is "better to reign in hell than serve in heaven;" then it may be truly said, (however amiable his private character) that, he not only does not merit our suffrages; but that (as a public man) he deserves the execration of every true friend to the peace, the independence and the honor of the United States. Should the efforts of this intriguing cabal be crowned with success, the time is not far distant when we shall exclaim, "Curse on his virtues: they've undone his Country!"
The Embargo they cry, 'the embargo.' 'Remove the embargo;' but, in this case, they leave us without a substitute. They would remove Governor LANGDON, and substitute Judge SMITH. Can he remove the embargo? Would he remove it if he had the power? Let him come forward with his plans and substitute. Is he for war? Is he in favor of submitting to British orders of Council and acts of Parliament; and French decrees? By what magic will he restore our commerce to its wonted activity? Since the election of Judge Smith, is the wonderful panacea which is to cure all the evils of the body politic; at least let us know how the medicine will operate. Many doubts are entertained of its efficacy. Many well grounded fears exist that it will, when administered produce violent convulsions, spasmodic and paralytic affections, bleeding at the pores, rapid decline and premature dissolution! CATO.
Among the many ungrounded and false insinuations against the present administration of our general government, which daily drop from the lips of our discontented anti-republicans, and which issue from our tory presses, is a base and inconsistent one which they presume to set forth, that our President and Congress are enemies to commerce. I would ask these penetrating jealous pates the reason they have for saying that our present rulers are inimical to naval commerce. If they answer me—because they have laid an embargo on all our vessels, and thereby stopped all commerce, they then assign what proves diametrically the reverse. I say their laying an embargo on our vessels at the then present crisis of our country, when the two European despotisms were, with the greatest avidity, robbing us of our vessels and men without which we were unable to carry on naval commerce, demonstrate that their object was, not only to preserve our property and seamen from those avaricious robbers, to wit, Great Britain and France, the former of which, not satisfied with stealing our property, but they have acquired to themselves the appellation of man-stealers, by robbing us of at least three thousand of our mariners; but it demonstrates also,
their pure regard to naval commerce, manifestly shewing to the two great belligerents of Europe, that we set too high a value upon our commercial rights to have them trampled under foot, abused and disregarded, as by them they have been. Had our government, instead of effectually preserving our means of commerce in the way they did, (which was the only alternative) remained silent, and suffered our vessels and men still to have gone out to sea, and be sacrificed to those menacing robbers, to support and encourage them in their diabolical course of rapine and plunder, the period would have soon arrived when we should have been destitute of both vessels and sailors, and our commerce completely annihilated. Those insignificant fault-finders who judge not motives from actions, but pretend to be so much skilled either in optical genius or magic, that they can penetrate the hearts of our rulers, and there view that they wish to destroy our commerce, when their conduct proves point blank to the contrary, might then have accused our executive of being enemies to commerce in very deed. [Hudson Ber.]
POSTSCRIPT.
LATE T FROM SPAIN.
The ship Diana, arrived at Charleston, on the 9th inst. from Havana, bringing the Aurora of that city to the 28th ult. the editor of which states, that the ship Fortune had arrived there (Havana) from Liverpool, in the short passage of 30 days; but the accounts she brought were kept a profound secret, and all her papers taken by the government! Still it was asserted, that the news she brought was very unfavourable; that the armies of the Spanish patriots had been ENTIRELY ROUTED, and in a great measure DESTROYED—and that the French army had arrived, with little opposition, before Madrid.
LONDON, Dec. 14. With this morning received Paris papers to 11th inst. containing the 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th bulletins of the French army in Spain. The eleventh bulletin is dated Aranda de Duero, and gives an account of the defeat of Castanos. The action took place on the 23d ult. at Tudela. It commenced at 9 o'clock in the morning, and ended in the defeat and dispersion of the Spanish army of which 23000, including 300 officers, were taken prisoners, and 4000 were left on the field of battle or driven into the Ebro. The remainder of the defeated army were pursued by the French cavalry, part in the direction of Saragossa, and part in the direction of Agreda and Tarracona, on the frontiers of Arragon. The pursuit was continued to the 23th inclusive, on which day a division of French cavalry arrived at Roa. The number of prisoners taken in the interval between that and the 23d. amounting to 5000 all of the line. No quarter was given to the armed peasants.
It is remarkable, that although the Moniteurs to the 11th have been received, yet the last bulletin, the 12th is contained in the paper of the 6th, and the following Moniteurs contain no intelligence whatever from Spain. At the latest date, the 27th, Bonaparte's head-quarters were at Aranda de Duero a town of Spain in old Castile, on the Duero, about 30 leagues north of Madrid, to which capital, the bulletin boasts, it is only a pleasant walk. Besides the killed, wounded and taken, in the disastrous battle of Tudela, the Spaniards lost 30 pieces of cannon. The French generals particularly engaged in the action, were the duke of Montebello (Lafesse) and the duke of Corregiano (Moncey).—Had the division of the Duke of Elchingen (Ney) been in its position, it is said, not a Spaniard would have escaped. The bulletins, previous to the 11th, relate chiefly to the operations against Blake's army.
In the battle of Tudela, on the 23d, the Spanish army, under Castanos, amounted only to 4500 men. Its position is said to have been absolutely bad, and that it did not make a formidable resistance.
From Washington Feb. 16.
The House of Representatives of the U. States occupied the whole of this day in discussing the Embargo and Non-Intercourse Resolutions from the Senate; and adjourned without taking the question.
The additional Duty Bill, which imposes for one year an increase of 50 per cent, passed the House on this day, and is to go into immediate operation after it has received the President's signature.
On the same day Mr. Giles introduced a bill into the Senate, the object of which is to raise the embargo on the 4th of March. It contains a section which in certain cases makes it imperative the duty of the President to issue Letters of Marque and Reprisal. [Mar. Adv.]
Latest from Washington.
A letter from a member of Congress, dated the 18th inst. says—"the bill respecting Non-Intercourse is still under discussion. We have taken but one vote this day, which was on striking out that part of the bill which makes the repeal of the Embargo partial. The proposition was lost by 4 was lost by 4 votes only, 53 to 57."
P.S. The bill has passed the House of Representatives in committee of the whole: So that the Embargo will certainly be raised on the 4th March.
We have seen a letter from Surinam to a respectable commercial house in this city, dated January 13th, which quotes Flour at 60 dollars per barrel, herrings 20 ds. salmon 48 ds. mackerel 6, fat 16, oil 3 ds. per galon, tobacco 80 cents per pound, rice 24, codfish 20, pitch and tar scarce, and no lumber to be had. The produce of the island is quoted at the following prices:—molasses 16 cents, sugar 3 ds per cwt. cotton 62 cents, per lb. coffee 28. cocoa scarce. [N.Y. Mer. Adv.]
Military patriotism in Boston!
In consequence of the seditious and disgraceful insinuations thrown out in Massachusetts to dissuade the militia from doing their duty in this critical state of affairs, the officers of the legionary brigade in Boston assembled and passed a number of excellent resolutions declaratory of their determination to support the laws and government of their country in all cases against foreign enemies or domestic traitors. Their proceedings are published, with the signatures of twelve captains and twenty other commissioned officers.
The disorganizing spirit of the Essex Juno has routed the whigism of the country. The militia of Boston and Charlestown have determined to maintain the empire of the laws, and the surrounding and remote counties are coming out with a boldness, that will check, if not appal faction. The towns of Saco, Gray and Dorechester, have passed strong resolutions against the efforts of faction to disunite and distract.
The spirited resolutions passed at Albany have animated the whole state of New York, and from every quarter we receive the most patriotic proceedings.
In a late number of the Boston Repository, published by John Park, is an article, copied into other tory papers, containing among other declarations of similar import, the following expression, emphatically marked by italic:
"Our own worst enemies, the present government of the United States."
In speaking of the conduct of France and Great Britain, to stigmatize our government in this manner, is a species of crime that cannot long go unpunished—and would not now, excepting in a town where toryism is triumphant, sedition and rebellion are openly encouraged, and murder itself parades the streets unpunished and exulting.

GENUINE PATRIOTISM.
MARBLEHEAD RESOLUTIONS.
At a very numerous meeting of the freeholders and other inhabitants of the Town of MARBLEHEAD, duly qualified and legally warned at public Town meeting assembled, at the Town House in said town on Monday, the 6th of February inst. at 10 o'clock in the forenoon-to express their opinions of the measures which have been pursued by the General Government, to take into consideration the extraordinary proceedings of certain towns in this commonwealth, &c. Voted, That Mr JOHN SPARHAWK be Moderator.
Voted, That a committee of five persons be appointed to prepare suitable resolutions on the present occasion, viz. Thomas Williams, William Story, John B. Selman, Nicholas Bartlett, and Edmund Bray.
Voted, That this meeting be adjourned till 3 o'clock this afternoon. At which time the town met, and the committee introduced the following Preamble and Resolutions, which were approved with the exception of only two dissenting voices.
WHEREAS, by the Constitution of this Commonwealth and the U. States, "the people have a right in an orderly and peaceable manner to assemble to consult for the common good," and in times of public danger and alarm it is peculiarly the duty of good citizens to stand forth in defence of the rights and laws of their country, and to enforce them against foreign violations and domestic conspiracies; and whereas by the Constitution of the U. States, it is declared, that "this Constitution and the laws made in pursuance thereof shall be the Supreme Laws of the land."
Therefore Resolved, That we are firmly attached to the Constitution of the United States, believing it the best security of the liberties of the people, and admirably calculated to promote the prosperity and happiness of the whole community. That, in the language of the illustrious Washington "it keeps steadily in view what appears to us the greatest interest of every American, the consolidation of our union, in which is involved our prosperity, our felicity, safety and perhaps our national existence." That it was "the result of a spirit of amity, and of that mutual deference and concession which the peculiarity of our situation rendered indispensable," and that we ought to "frown indignantly upon the first dawning of every attempt to alienate any portion of the country from the rest, or to enfeeble the sacred ties which now link together its various parts."
Resolved, That we view with the utmost abhorrence and indignation the conduct of a party among us, who are continually endeavoring to excite the good people of this Commonwealth to a disobedience of the laws of the Union, by false and libelous publications, respecting the motives and measures of the General Government, and gross misstatements of the sources of our present embarrassments, that the real object of this party is to separate the U. States, and excite Rebellion and Civil War, for the purpose of establishing a Monarchy under the pretence of a Northern confederacy, or to force us into a destructive war with the continent of Europe, consequently a fatal alliance with the corrupted monarchy of Britain "whose embrace is death."
Resolved, That the real cause of our present embarrassments are not the embargo, or any measures of our own Government, but are wholly owing to the unjust and oppressive conduct of G. Britain and France. That the orders of the former and the decrees of the latter have destroyed all neutral trade, or rendered it not worth pursuing. That these Orders & Decrees are destructive of all our commercial rights, and cannot be submitted to without national degradation and national ruin; and therefore 'tis our opinion, that the administration have acted a highly honorable part in vindicating these rights and opposing the outrageous aggressions of foreign nations; and we are ready to meet all the consequences of war, if it shall be necessary to support them with the Sword.
Resolved, That the conduct of G. Britain in the impressment of our Seamen, adds a deeper dye to the injuries inflicted upon us by her. That her claim to force our innocent seamen into her service under the false pretext of their being her subjects is an outrage upon our national sovereignty which ought to be resisted at all hazards; and the men who publish to the world declarations that Great Britain has done us no essential injury, when thousands of our seamen are confined on board her Ships of war, are unworthy of the name of Americans, and should receive the pointed distrust of all honest and honorable men.
Resolved, That we behold with mixed emotions of pain and abhorrence the proceedings of certain towns in this Commonwealth, convened for the express purpose of eradicating the National Government, and scattering the seeds of discord and contention among the community, as pregnant with the most pernicious consequences, inflaming the mind of individuals against their Rulers, enticing them to an open Rebellion against the constituted authorities, and which if persisted in, will produce scenes from which the mind recoils with horror.
Resolved, That "in the times that try men's souls," we deem it a solemn duty to express our gratitude to those Patriots who have forgotten all party distinctions in their zeal to sustain the rights of the nation-among their number we are proud to record the venerable John Adams, late President of the U. States; the accomplished scholar John Quincy Adams, the intelligent statesman William L. Smith, and the first merchant in the U. States, William Gray, a friend whom the inhabitants of this town have long known and respected, eminently entitled to the confidence of his country-When the petty factions of this day shall be buried in oblivion, these truly great men will receive the homage and applause of an admiring world.
Resolved, That we are determined never to yield our Liberties and Rights, purchased by the best blood of our country, either to external foes or domestic traitors. That we are determined: at all hazards to maintain the Constitution of the United States and all the laws made in pursuance thereof, and we do most religiously, and solemnly pledge our lives, our property & our sacred honor, for their support through every peril of insurrection, rebellion or invasion.
Resolved, That many of our honest and well meaning citizens have been deluded from the path of political rectitude by the artful insinuations of the traitors and Tories of our happy country, and that the continuance of the evils which we as a People at this moment experience, are in some measure owing to the public and private machinations of our domestic enemies.
Resolved, That no reparation has been granted for the murderous attack on the frigate Chesapeake, nor any offer of satisfaction made. That one of the unfortunate seamen taken from her has been carried into Halifax, had a sham trial and barbarously hanged, although he was believed to be a Native American-if not he was under the protection of the U. States-to these unparalleled injuries they have added insult by sending a minister to make infamous proposals to Government, and encourage the British Faction among us.
Resolved, That as we hold sacred those invaluable privileges purchased by "the best blood of our country, and - resigned to our hands by a numerous class of brave and hardy Townsmen who sacrificed their lives for the achievement of our glorious independence; that in order to protect and defend these privileges ever to be held sacred by Americans, we will arm and equip ourselves, in such a manner as our circumstances will admit and do hereby publicly and solemnly declare, that "we will die Freemen, and never live slaves" Atts. JOSHUA PRENTISS, Town Clerk.
