PROPOSALS, By G. F. HOPKINS, No. 118, Pearl Street, New-York, For publishing by Subscription, in two handsome octavo volumes, THE FEDERALIST, ON THE NEW CONSTITUTION. BY PUBLIUS. WRITTEN IN 1788. TO WHICH IS ADDED, PACIFICUS, ON The Proclamation of Neutrality. WRITTEN IN 1793. The whole revised and corrected, with new passages and notes.
THE FEDERALIST was written in a series of numbers, under the signature of Publius, shortly after the promulgation of the Federal Constitution, and addressed to the People of the State of New-York, with the design of enforcing the propriety and necessity of its adoption.
It is principally the production of a man whose name will be held in sacred respect long after the pitiful attempts which have been made to slander his fame shall have sunk into oblivion. Two other gentlemen, of distinguished talents, occasionally contributed some essays, which will be marked in the publication.
All parties seem at length united in professions of regard for the Constitution; if they are sincere, the consideration cannot fail to enhance the value of a work, which, by employing in its favor all the energy of argument, and all the persuasion of eloquence, was eminently useful in promoting its general ratification.
Whoever is desirous of being well informed of the principles and provisions of our Government, and the manner in which they have been supported and vindicated, of the objections that were made to the Constitution by its first opponents, and how they were answered, will find these volumes fraught with ample and satisfactory information. The study of them must form an essential part of the education of the American statesman. Politicians, indeed, of every country, will here discover materials in the science of Government well worthy of their attention; a science, of all others, the most interesting to mankind, as it most deeply concerns human happiness. The Federalist contains principles that may be remembered and studied with advantage by all classes of men in other countries than our own, and in other ages than that in which we live. The People of America alone have afforded the example of a pure Representative Republic. In this work it will appear, that the principles of this form of Government have been well understood, and thoroughly developed, and should, unfortunately, the experiment which we have made, hereafter fail, it will be in vain to attempt the renewal of similar systems, as no rational hope can be entertained, that more correct notions on this subject will prevail than are here exhibited.
To preserve these papers, therefore, which have so much intrinsic merit, and such lasting utility, in a dress suitable to their character, is the inducement to their re-publication.
PACIFICUS is from the pen of the same enlightened statesman who was the chief author of the Federalist. These essays were written in defence of the first leading step which our Government took to preserve that Neutrality which it continued to maintain during the late Transatlantic conflict; a conflict which has annihilated the minor powers of Europe, and shaken the civilized world.
Now that the storm has passed over, and the angry and tumultuous passions which at that time agitated our country, have in some measure subsided, these papers will be read with profit and pleasure by the intelligent man of every party. Candor will probably wonder, that any should have doubted of the fitness of the measures which this writer has so ably advocated, and which experience has so forcibly proved to have been the best adapted to the interests of the country.
To give to these latter Essays a form which shall outlive the fleeting impressions of a newspaper, they are incorporated in these volumes. — Publius and Pacificus will serve to keep in just remembrance two very important events in the history of our country.
* The first gentleman here alluded to is General Hamilton—the other two, Mr. Madison and Mr. Jay.

FROM THE NEW-YORK EVENING POST.
THE EXAMINATION.
NUMBER VII.
The next exceptional feature in the Message, is the proposal to abolish all restriction or naturalization, arising from a previous residence. In this the president is not more at variance with the concurrent maxims of all commentations on popular government, than he is with himself. The Notes on Virginia, are in direct contradiction to the Message, and furnish us with strong reasons against the policy now recommended. The passage alluded to is here represented: Speaking of the population of America, Mr. Jefferson there says, 'Here I will beg leave to propose a doubt. The present desire of America, is to produce rapid population, by as great importations of foreigners as possible. But is this founded in good policy?' Are there no inconveniences to be thrown into the scale, against the advantage expected from a multiplication of numbers, by the importation of foreigners? It is for the happiness of those united in society, to harmonize as much as possible, in matters which they must of necessity transact together. Civil government being the sole object of forming societies, its administration must be conducted by common consent. Every species of government has its specific principles: Ours, perhaps are more peculiar than those of any other in the universe.
It is a composition of the freest principles of the English constitution, with others, derived from natural right and reason. To these, nothing can be more opposed than the maxims of absolute monarchies. Yet from such we are to expect the greatest number of emigrants. They will bring with them the principles of the governments they leave, imbibed in their early youth; or if able to throw them off, it will be in exchange for an unbounded licentiousness, passing, as is usual, from one extreme to another. It would be a miracle were they to stop precisely at the point of temperate liberty. Their principles with their language, they will transmit to their children. In proportion to their numbers, they will share with us in the legislation. They will infuse into it their spirit, warp and bias its direction, and render it a heterogeneous, incoherent, distracted mass. I may appeal to experience, during the present contest, for a verification of these conjectures: but if they be not certain in event, are they not probable, are they not probable? Is it not safer to wait with patience for the attainment of any degree of population desired or expected? May not our government be more homogenous, more peaceable, more durable? Suppose 20 millions of republican Americans, thrown all of a sudden into France what would be the condition of that kingdom? If it would be more turbulent, less happy, less strong, we may believe that the addition of half a million of foreigners, to our present numbers, would produce a similar effect here.' Thus wrote Mr. Jefferson in 1781—Behold the reversion of the medal. The message of the President, contains the following sentiments: A denial of citizenship, under a residence of 14 years, is a denial to a great proportion of those who ask it, and controls a policy pursued from their first settlement by many of these states, and is believed of consequence to their prosperity. And shall we refuse to the unhappy fugitives from distress, that hospitality which the savages of the wilderness extended to our fathers arriving in this land? Shall oppressed humanity find no asylum on this globe? Might not the general character and capabilities of a citizen, be safely communicated to every one manifesting a bona fide purpose of embarking his life and fortune permanently with us? But if gratitude can be allowed to form an excuse for inconsistency in a public character, in The Man of the People ; a strong plea of this sort may be urged in behalf of our president. It is certain that had the late election been decided entirely by native citizens, had foreign auxiliaries been rejected on both sides, the man who ostensibly vaunts that the doors of public honor and confidence have been burst open to him, would not now have been at the head of the American nation. Such a proof of virtuous discernment in the oppressed fugitives, had an imperious claim on him to a grateful return, and without supposing any very uncommon share of self-love would naturally be a strong reason for a revolution in his opinions. The pathetic and plaintive exclamation by which the sentiment is enforced, might
be liable to much criticism, if we are to consider it in any other light, than as a flourish of rhetoric. It might be asked in return, does the right to asylum or hospitality carry with it the right to suffrage and sovereignty? And what indeed was the courteous reception which was given to our forefathers, by the savages of the wilderness? When did these humane and philanthropic savages exercise the policy of incorporating strangers among themselves, on their first arrival in the country? When did they admit them into their huts, to make part of their families, and when did they distinguish them by making them their sachems? Our histories and tradition have been more than apocryphal, if anything like this kind, and gentle treatment was really lavished by the much belied savages upon our thankless forefathers. But the remark occurs, had it all been true, prudence inclines to trace the history farther, and ask what has become of the nations of savages who exercised this policy? And who now occupies the territory which they then inhabited? Perhaps a useful lesson might be drawn from this very reflection.
But we may venture to ask what does the President really mean, by insinuating that we treat aliens coming to this country, with inhospitality? Do we not permit them quietly to land on our shores? Do we not protect them equally with our own citizens, in their persons and reputation: in the acquisition and enjoyment of property! Are not our courts of justice open for them to seek redress of injuries? And are they not permitted peaceably to return to their own country whenever they please, and to carry with them all their effects? What then means this worse than idle declaration?
The impolicy of admitting foreigners to an immediate and unreserved participation in the right of suffrage, or in the sovereignty of a Republic, is as much a received axiom as any thing in the science of politics, and is verified by the experience of all ages. Among other instances, it is known, that hardly any thing contributed more to the downfall of Rome, than her precipitate communication of the privileges of citizenship to the inhabitants of Italy at large. And how terrible was Syracuse scourged by perpetual seditions, when after the overthrow of the tyrants, a great number of foreigners, were suddenly admitted to the rights of citizenship? Not only does antient but modern, and even domestic history furnish evidence of what may be expected from the disposition of foreigners, when they get too early footing in a country. Who wields the scepter of France, and has erected a Despotism on the ruins of a Republic? A foreigner. Who rules the councils of our own ill fated unhappy country? And who stimulates persecution on the heads of its citizens for daring to maintain an opinion, and for exercising the rights of suffrage? A foreigner!—Where is the virtuous pride that once distinguished Americans?—Where the indignant spirit which in defence of principles hazarded a revolution to attain that independence now insidiously attacked?
LUCIUS CRAESUS.
SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES. Wednesday, Jan. 13, 1802.
DEBATE
On Mr. Brackenridge's motion to repeal the act passed last session for a new organization of the JUDICIARY SYSTEM.
JUDICIARY ESTABLISHMENT. [CONTINUED.]
Mr. Olcott, of New-Hampshire, said that this subject was of the most important kind, and though many able arguments had been already offered, he could not pass it over with a negative vote.
It has been suggested that the act, now proposed to be repealed, came in on the influx of passion, and that the influx of reason should sweep it away. He did not know that this was the case. Some gentlemen contend that it was adopted with great deliberation.
He thought the reasons for a repeal of this law insufficient. It is not said, that if the constitution vest a right to office in the judges, that we can affect them. He thought the constitution did vest the right, and he held it to be sacred.
The provisions of the constitution appeared to him so plain, that they scarcely admitted of illustration. He who undertakes to explain the text must find
more explicit terms than those contained in it. He could not find any.
After dwelling upon the different provisions of the constitution, Mr. Olcott went upon the question of expediency at some length, and concluded that a repeal was as inexpedient as unconstitutional.
Mr. Cocke of Tennessee, followed Mr. Olcott. He said he was sorry gentlemen attempted to make quack doctors of them, by saying we may give a wound, but cannot heal it. He wished the Senate to enquire whether the law now proposed to be repealed was constitutional or not. If it was not, we should act like honest men, acknowledge that we have violated the constitution, and restore it to its purity by repealing the law. Let us recur to the Journals of 1799, and see what was the understanding of these champions of our liberties, and whether they have not since changed. The Journals would prove that the judges were to mix with the legislature, were to be locked up in a closet, and to declare who was to be our executive magistrate.
[Mr. Cocke went into an examination of the arguments on the constitutional point.]
We have been told that the nation is to look up to these immaculate judges to protect their liberties—to protect the people against themselves. This was novel, and what result did it lead to? He shuddered to think of it. Were there none of these judges ready to plunge their sword into the American heart? He did not think it proper to be alarmed by the terrors held out. He wished to know no man; to take things as they are. But if gentlemen will attack, they must expect a reply.
Mr. Cocke then dilated upon the several points of the discussion, and concluded with the expression of the hope that the legislature would repeal the law, and that they would not give way to the ideas of gentlemen that the government was made for a chosen few—for the judges—to whom we are to look up for every thing.
NEW-YORK, January 21. The following, is copied from a Charleston paper of the 13th January, received by the sloop Eliza , arrived yesterday in 5 days.
The sloop Brutus , capt. Torrns, which arrived at Charleston on the 12th inst. made her passage from Havana in three days and nine hours. Capt. Torrns confirms what has already been stated, that none of the American vessels in that port, which arrived since it has been shut, have been permitted to enter; and in addition, he says, that it was the opinion of the American merchants there, at the time he failed, that none of them would be permitted to sail, and they thought it perfectly useless for any other vessels to be sent there at this time, in expectation that this privilege would be granted them. Those vessels which are admitted into the harbor, are obliged to pay fifty dollars for every 24 hours they remain there.
About the middle of December, capt. Torrns, left Cape Francois for this port, on the 24th, being then on the south side of Cuba, spoke ship Effex , of New-York, Johnson, master, from Jamaica bound to New-York, and supplied her with some provisions; soon after a gale came on, which continued several days; on the 20th he again saw the Effex , and at 2 o'clock P. M. had the unhappiness to see her go on shore on a reef a little to the northward of Cape Antonio, where she shortly after went to pieces, and he has reason to believe all on board perished; he saw some of the crew clinging to the rigging when the masts went overboard. The gale was so severe at this time that capt. Torrns could not afford them the least assistance. Capt. Johnson had his wife and three children on board with him.
A long red sided brig was also cast away near the ship, but her name, or where she was from, was unknown to capt. Torrns.

January 22.
Extract of a letter from captain William Johnson of the ship Essex of this port to Mr. Ijac Barr, jun. the owner in N. York, dated
Havannah December, 30th.
"I am happy to inform you of my arrival here this day, after a passage of eleven days. I find the place full of vessels, and markets much glutted. I met with a sad accident the day before yesterday in the afternoon: During a very severe squall from the northward, off the Coxcombs, one of my men fell overboard. Four men went immediately in the yawl to try to save him. They got him in the boat, and had almost got on board: but the squall increasing, the boat swamped, and it blowing so hard that I could not bear the ship up to them, I lost the whole five—which was a distressing circumstance to me."
[We give the first part of this extract with pleasure; as it shews the account of capt. Torrains (which we published yesterday morning) respecting the loss of the Essex, to be wholly without foundation.]
We learn by the Schooner Fanny, from Guadalupe, that the inhabitants were in hourly expectations of the arrival of a body of troops from France. The negroes under Pelage, had been quiet before the receipt of this news, which threw them into consternation, and they had made several attempts to assassinate Pelage. La Crosse, was still at Dominico. The whites and mulattoes were disposed for quietly receiving the troops from France. Business of every kind very dull, and an embargo of 15 days had just been taken off, for American, Swedish and Danish vessels; but was still imposed on French vessels, when the Fanny sailed.

Eliza, from Jamaica to Philadelphia, 3 days out—Ship Alexandria, of New York from Havanna to New Orleans. Nov. 13 was boarded by the Spanish privateer Schr. Devente, capt. Demars, and plundered of 1 hhd. rum, 1 box of sugar, 1 do
potatoes, 1 do. beef 2 do. pork, 300 wt. of new rigging, 450 bunches of onions, 250 wt. cheese, and every article out of the cabin they could lay their hands on. Capt. Tryon demanded compensation for the articles plundered from his vessel, upon which the captain of the privateer struck him, called him a dam'd rascal, and told him he might go to the President of the United States for pay.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 23.
The Lady Buonaparte of this port was bound to Guadalupe, but off Point Petre was boarded by a French and British frigate and ordered away in consequence of that Island being declared in open rebellion against the Republic of France, by Gen. La Crosse, &c. &c. and all intercourse being positively interdicted.
Capt. Hess was informed by the blockading frigate, that even clearances from the Island would not be respected, and further, that ships of war are stationed all round the Island, to enforce his Proclamation.
Extract of a letter from the American consul at Gibraltar, to a Merchant in this city dated 12th October.
"With the convoy arrived two days ago from England, upwards of 2000 barrels of American flour has got to market, and yesterday 500 barrels came in form N. York.—Further parcels are still expected from England and your quarter, so that this will in future, or at least for some time, be a precarious article."

TUESDAY, JANUARY 26.
In the Senate of the United States, on Friday last, the committee appointed for that purpose, reported a bill for repealing the act of the 13th Feb. 1801, for new organizing the Judiciary of the United States.
The bill is a short one; and is confined to a repeal of the above act, and a restoration to the courts, under the old system, of the business by it confided to them.
It was read the first time and ordered to be printed.
Captain Downey, of the brig Brandywine, arrived at Philadelphia, from C. Francois, left there the 31st of December, the sloop Rosanna, Bury, of this port.

IMPORTANT.
A gentleman belonging to a respectable mercantile house of Alexandria, now in this town, received a letter from his partner last night, dated the 21st inst. which says, "I am sorry to inform you Tenjain is no more. He has been caught by the blacks and burnt alive." The letter
mentions nothing further on the subject; but from the gentleman's connexions in trade at Cape Francois, there is no doubt but his information is from the most unquestionable source. His letter, probably came by way of Norfolk, where captain Ferguson, whose packet left there on Tuesday last, states that the same report of Toussaint being burnt was current, tho' not generally credited.
Toussaint was probably way-laid by some of Moyes's party in his usual tour from the Cape to Port Republican, which he mostly made without any guard. And as a retaliation for the death of their general, and to prevent, as they suspected, betraying them to the whites, it is not unlikely that they have inflicted this savage and excruciating torture.
Should this news unfortunately be true, a ferocious retribution will be made to the roops embarked for that colony, and much blood will be shed before the blacks can be subdued.
The Financial Report.
Mr. Gallatin's Report affords a very clear statement of our debt and of our resources to pay it off. We admit it is merit to exhibit facts without affecting the pretence of innovation or novelty. It will ever afford pleasure to the Federalists to find cause for approbation in the measures of the new rulers. The Report made by Mr. Gallatin shews how abundantly able the nation is to pay its debt honestly, and how little pretext a Rhode Island politician could have for cheating it out. The Report reflects no little honor on the wisdom and integrity of the federal administration. It shows, and from the pen of an adversary how very false and groundless are the million charges on secretary Hamilton, that he wished to keep the debt as a blessing. It shews, that all that could be contrived by his ingenious mind, has been enacted by Congress to bind fast the public faith, invariably to apply the surplus revenue to the extinguishment of the debt. Let the deluded Democrats, who have for years believed these flanders of the Federalists, retract their now confuted errors. Candor requires it, that is some thing; Mr. Gallatin requires it that is every thing.
N. E. Palladium.
THE DREAMS OF A PHILOSOPHER.
"May our Constitution never fall a sacrifice to the DREAMS of a Condorcet."
HAMILTON'S TOAST.
These words seem to have been dictated by a spirit almost prophetic. Alas, what a succession of "dreams," have we witnessed since the decision of the late election of President of the United States. Scarcely had Mr. J. been installed in his high office, than he began to proclaim his dreams to the Congress and the world.—He dreamt that "we were all republicans—all federalists"—that his measures would restore harmony to social intercourse... But very soon after he dreamt that there was a "political sect," in possession of all the places of trust or profit in the country—that this "sect" would neither "resign nor die," and therefore, he would "correct the procedure," and for the accommodation of republicans, "he burst open the doors of honor and confidence." He next dreamt that the constitution had authorized him, without the consent of the Senate, to displace faithful officers for a "slight shade of difference in political opinion" with himself and his friends, in order that he might make room for leading characters of his own party.—He has lately been dreaming that a "government, is founded not in the fears and follies of man, but on his reason and sense of right, may be so free as to restrain him in no moral right—and so firm as to protect him from every moral wrong."
N. B. This seems to have been one of the most flighty of the Philosopher's dreams, and he certainly must have been dreaming when he committed it to paper.—For as a certain master of logical argument, (Mr. G. Morris) observes, "It has been said, and truly too, that governments are made to provide against the vices and follies of men. To suppose that governments rest on reason is a pitiful fallacy... If mankind were reasonable they would want no government."... And we may add, if private interest and party attachments, did not so bias their "sense of right," there would be little need of laws, courts, or executive officers, to enforce the performance of duty.
But these dreams of our Philosophical President, have been airy, speculative, and
comparatively innocent. His more recent dreams, which are about to have a practical influence on our national concerns, are more alarming, and in their tendencies more pernicious. His visionary scheme of abolishing "now" all the internal revenues of the national government—of "discharging the principals of our public debts in shorter periods than the laws or the general expectation had contemplated"—of getting indemnification for losses abroad, without providing the means of asserting our rights—of preserving the nation in honorable peace without being prepared for war... and finally, and above all, his plan of dismissing judges from office, whom the constitution has rendered independent of the other branches of the government, are dreams to like the revolutionary visions of French Republicans, and partake so little of the sound discretion and common sense of awakened Americans, that we cannot help exclaiming with the illustrious author of Publius... "May our constitution never fall a sacrifice to the dreams of a CONDORCET."

A valuable Tract of Land in Northumberland county, two miles from the court-house, and near the bank of the Potomac, containing 1163 acres. This tract is divided into two plantations, on the one there is a brick dwelling house 50 by 33 feet conveniently divided, and two brick offices, 24 by 16 feet. A farm-house 29 by 16 feet designed for an overseer, and other out houses.
The conveniences of this place are equalled by few, and the prospect excelled by none in the state. The house is situated on a high hill and commands an extensive view of the Potomac and the Chesapeake bay. There is a creek abounding with the finest fish and oysters, which terminates the flat land of this tract, that is navigable for bay craft, and affords an excellent landing place within half a mile of the house. On this part of the tract there is an excellent bearing apple and peach orchard, and a variety of other fruit trees. It has a great sufficiency of oak and hickory timber, for the use of the plantation, besides a large quantity of pine.
On the other plantation there is a frame dwelling house 32 by 16 feet, and a few out houses, such as tenants generally have about them. This part of the tract is as well situated for farming as any lands in Virginia. It is well watered, has a sufficiency of timber for its support, and flourishing young peach and apple orchards.
As it is presumed that no person will make such a purchase without viewing the premises, all that is necessary to add is that Mr. Spencer Ball, living thereon, will shew the whole, and is fully authorised to make sale thereof. JAMES V. BALL. N. B. Any person purchasing may be supplied with stock of all kinds necessary and sufficient for the plantation. Feb. 19. 1aw.
