CONGRESS.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Tuesday, November 25, 1794.
Debate on Mr. Fitzsimons's motion relative to self-created societies.
Mr. Sedgwick's Speech.
(concluded.)
Mr. SEDGWICK, to expose to the consideration of the committee the public benefits derived from the administration of the government, contrasted the situation of the United States before and since the adoption of the constitution. During the former period he said the American name was degraded and disgraced. The citizens almost intolerably burdened by taxes, and yet the revenue unproductive and public credit prostrate. The states employed in legislative hostility. Private confidence destroyed, and every friend of his country painfully agitated with apprehension of still more dreadful consequences. During the latter period the American name had been rendered honorable and glorious; without burdening the citizen, public credit and private confidence restored; manufactures instituted and navigation extended, and every man enjoying all the blessings of liberty and security. This, he said, was a state of society which ought not for slight or trivial causes to have been disturbed.
That altho' with respect to the measures of the government, and particularly the excise, there had existed a difference of opinion, yet there was a very considerable majority in favour of it. And although some uneasiness was at first expressed concerning it in several parts of the United States, yet cool and temperate discussion had quieted and almost annihilated opposition, when a foreign agent arrived in this country.
The moment that man set his foot on American ground, he attempted the exercise of the rights of sovereignty. In defiance of decency and the constituted authorities of the people, in violation of law and our duties of neutrality, he attempted arming our citizens and involving us in the horrors of war. This unwarrantable attempt was defeated by the vigilance, and the manly patriotic exertions of the President. During the route of this man from Charleston to Philadelphia, he was every where attended by the Hofannas of the disaffected, and whenever he could find a fit soil, he planted the seeds of seditious opposition and the produce has been abundant in the democratic societies throughout the United States; and wherever they have obtained a degree of prevalence a good disposition towards the government and the administration of it have been blasted.
The people had instituted their own governments; such powers as they pleased they had delegated and such as they chose, they had retained. They, too, had employed such instruments as their wisdom dictated to express and to execute their will. But the members of these clubs revolting from the state of equality of which they said so much, had assumed functions inconsistent with every principle of republicanism.
These societies self created, without delegation or controul, not emanating from the people nor responsible to them, not open in their deliberations, nor admitting to them any but those of their own political opinions, and of endless duration, have modestly assumed the character of popular instructors, guardians of the peoples guardians and governors of their government: These societies thus unconstitutionally constituted, ought at least to have been impartial in the execution of their assumed trust. What he asked had been their conduct? Was there nothing in the administration of the government which would admit of approbation? They had been either blind as to the discovery of any such acts or dishonest in the suppression of them.
On the other hand these societies had loaded the characters of every man in the administration of the Government and who had assented to its acts with every species of calumny and slander. Slanders which they knew to be unfounded and false. They had not even spared the character of that greatest and best of men which had been supposed to have been clothed with inviolability. Not indeed that paltry inviolability which exists in constitutional prescription; but one infinitely more dear to an ingenuous mind, founded on the public gratitude, and resulting from disinterested and invaluable services.
It would be tedious said Mr. Sedgwick, to go into a particular recital of
all the unwarrantable proceedings of the Democratic Societies—he should therefore content himself with mentioning only one or two instances—within the recollection perhaps of every man in the committee.
In the Democratic Society of Wythe County, the character of the President was directly attacked, and the people were expressly called upon to concert measures to prevent his continuance in office—perhaps this might be justified on the principles of our government—they did not however stop here—they expressly exhorted the people to resist the constitutional acts of government. Perhaps it might be said that these transactions were in an obscure part of the country, and that the members were contemptible in influence and information.—The same could not be said of the society in this city, the centre of information, and the members respectable for their rank in life and for their political knowledge. This society had expressly denounced every man who had assented to certain laws, as tyrants; and at the same time had declared that none would submit to them but slaves. Let gentlemen, said he, determine what effects might reasonably be supposed to result from such denunciations and declarations, issuing from the seat of government among the ignorant and unenlightened inhabitants beyond the mountains.
It ought to be observed, he said, that at the time of first instituting these societies; the flame of sedition in the scene of the insurrection was almost smothered, but on the promulgation of their sentiments, it kindled into a blaze which threatened to involve in a general conflagration the peace, happiness, and liberties of our country.
He said these were the facts which the consideration of the subject involved; and it was for the committee to determine whether the President or these pernicious societies should on this occasion receive the countenance and support of the representatives of the people.
Mr. Rutherford. This alarm is owing to an overgrown monied system, with which the people are not entirely satisfied. But the money holders need not be afraid. The people will pay the public debt. Then why disturb the tranquility of the people? The President, in his speech, points only at combinations over the mountains. As to the character of the President himself, to praise him was like holding up a rush candle to let us see the sun. "I have known that man," said Mr. Rutherford, "for these forty years. I have had the honor of serving under him in the last war, and of frequently executing his wise and noble orders." The member declared that this amendment could answer no purpose but that of disturbing the public peace. He himself represented as respectable a district as any in Virginia, and he had as good opportunities, as any gentleman in that house, to know the temper of Americans. They were firmly attached to the present government, and the holders of paper need not be so much afraid of democratic societies, for the people, to preserve the public tranquility were determined to discharge the public debt, no matter how it was contracted, and therefore it would be much better not to harp the public mind with amendments like that on the table.
Mr. McDowell rose to make an apology for some words which had escaped him the day before. He did not expect to have been so smartly handled. He had been forcibly struck at the time, and had spoken from a momentary impulse. In substance, however, he adhered to all his former allegations. He still persisted to believe that the excise laws were shapen in darkness. He apologized for some part of his heat, from having seen and suffered so much by despotic government, during the last war, in which this gentleman supported, the character of a brave and able officer.
Mr. Hillhouse approved of the amendment as proposed by Mr. Fitzsimons. Constituents made no scruple to tell Representatives of their faults, and he saw no reason why representatives might not tell constituents of theirs? The resolutions of Democratic societies printed in the newspapers, had spirited up the people in the western counties to resistance. They had weakly fancied that the American nation would not stand by their Constitution and their President. But, for the publication of these resolutions, there would have been no insurrection. This was a piece of information which the people of the United States had a right to know. It was the duty of that house to let them know it. The President had done his duty. Mr. Hillhouse did not consider the present amendment, (of Mr. Fitzsimons) as an indiscriminate censure le-
velled at these societies; he thought it only a suitable answer to that part of the President's speech.
It was immaterial to his mind whether these societies were legal or not—he considered that the President would be under indispensable obligations, to announce to the two houses, the proceedings of any, and all public bodies so far as he conceived the public interest was involved.
Mr. Parker concluded this long debate by a short series of remarks. He did not think that Democratic societies were so far to blame as had been imagined. He suspected that the President himself, for whose character and services, he felt as much respect and gratitude, as any man in America, had been somewhat misinformed, on this point. It would be absurd to say, that the western disturbances originated from the publications of democratic societies, if it could be proved, to the satisfaction of the committee, that such disturbances had begun, long before any of the associations alluded to had a being. To prove this position Mr. Parker desired that the clerk might read a passage from the letter on that business written by Mr. Hamilton, and which has already been published in all the newspapers. The clerk accordingly read a part of the letter, from which Mr. Parker insisted that his inference was incontestible; and he then stated the absurdity of making the democratic publications the origin of a discontent, which existed before them. He was satisfied that the President did not wish this thing echoed; and that he would entirely disapprove of the proposed persecution. Mr. Parker said, that he had the honor of being an honorary member of a democratic society. Personally he knew nothing of the gentlemen, but he understood that they were respectable characters; and that they are friends to good order and the federal government; there could be no question, for when the embargo was laid last spring, and some vessels had been attempting to get off, these vigilant citizens armed and embodied themselves, and prevented the execution of the design. He mentioned another instance of their zeal for good order, but spoke in so low a voice that he was not, in every part of the house, distinctly heard. With all his respect for the President, he was not to give up his sentiments or opinions for the sake of any man. He was convinced that all this violent declamation and imitation in the house, would do a great deal of mischief when it transpired, and would have an effect exactly the reverse of what was designed by the amendment, as it first stood. A gentleman (Mr. Dextera) had spoke of town meetings, as the proper vehicles for the communication of political ideas, and had drawn a comparison between these and democratic societies. Mr. Parker requested that it might be noticed; that in the southern states there neither were nor could be such things as town meetings, because the population was too thin and too widely scattered. They were therefore to make the best of it which they could, and meet and deliberate, no matter where, whenever they found a convenient opportunity. Mr. Parker expressed in strong terms, the aversion that his constituents would feel to this species of censorship. He concluded with these words. "You love your government much, but they love their independence more."
(Debate to be continued.)
September 27.
The house took up the further consideration of the amendments reported by the committee of the whole to the address in answer to the President's speech.
The question immediately before the house for re-inserting the words "self-created societies" and "in Mr. Fitzsimons's amendment, which words had been struck out in committee of the whole.

Tuesday, a duel was fought on Salisbury near Hereford, between Thomas Esdaile Esq. an Irish gentleman, lately become resident at Aramford and the Rev. Hugh Morgan, one of the Canons of Hereford Cathedral. After the ground was measured Mr. Morgan received the fire of his antagonist, which wounded him in the head, and he immediately fell; he was immediately taken home, and there are great hopes of his recovery. It is conjectured that this duel was in consequence of some family concerns. Mr. Morgan lately married the half sister of Mr. B. After places, which belongs to the Rev. Mr. Pelham was built by the impious Cardinal Wolsey; in his bed chamber remains in perfect preservation as when first slept in. The tapestry finely wrought with his arms. Cardinals hat and all other ensigns of church dignity is as glowing as fresh as to colour as when first placed there by the haughty Prelate; whose self-promotion of disgrace were communicated to him at this most favorite mansion. The whole building is in perfect order.
Some philosophers have contended that in general there is no precise quality in crimes; at least that certain acts which are opprobrious in one country may be indifferent in another; and in another meritorious. In many countries it may be deemed criminal in a man to "run from his wife;" in a Latin West-India paper, a poor negro teller is accused of "running to his wife;" and a reward is offered to any person who shall catch him with her.

NEW-YORK, Nov. 24.
REVOLUTION IN FRANCE.
The preceding remarks are designed as introductory to an explanation of the Executive branch of government.
Many people, whose minds are easily alarmed with analogies, and not very susceptible of just distinctions, are extremely jealous of the Executive Power in a State.
A monarchy is a form of government where all the power, Legislative and Executive, is lodged in one man...
In a monarchy, the power of the monarch is all his own; in a free state the Chief Magistrate has no power but what is given him by the nation.
The distinction therefore between monarchy and the Executive of a free state, consists in the different degrees of energy or strength in their respective powers.
It is always to be presumed that a free nation will make good laws; that is the public will aim at the public good and happiness.

The conclusion is obvious; in strength or energy, the government of a monarchy and of a free state ought to be the same...

C. W. PEALE.
EVER solicitous to render his MUSEUM still more and more an object of rational entertainment, and subservient to the interests of useful science, has on the suggestion and with the advice of a number of his friends, provided a Book, which will be always open for the inspection of those who visit his Museum, in which Book it is proposed to insert all such discoveries, inventions, improvements, schemes, observations, experiments, projects, hints or queries relating to the arts or sciences, as any of his visitors, or correspondents, may from time to time communicate. Such as may chuse to conceal their names may either send their communications anonymous, or at their desire, C. W. Peale will insert their names, with the number or signature of their respective communications in a private Book which he will keep to that purpose. The advantages of such a public register are obvious. It will rescue from oblivion many useful hints, which might otherwise have died with their authors. It may secure to inventors their just claims, and prevent others from taking the honor or profit of a discovery to which they are not entitled, and as the Museum is now visited by persons from almost all parts of the world, such a register, it is presumed, will soon contain and be the means of communicating a vast fund of useful knowledge, and promote that spirit of enquiry and invention, for which the people of the United States are already so justly distinguished.

A SUBSCRIPTION is opened for Printing the Theological Writings
OF Emanuel Swedenborg, At Francis Bailey's Book Store, No. 119, Market Street, Philadelphia. WHEN a sufficient subscription is obtained, a meeting will be admitted to consider the most eligible mode for conducting the printing of such of the Works as are thought to be of the greatest utility to the first instance. The following Treatises may be now had of Mr. Bailey's:
The Doctrine of Life, or the Spiritual Sense of the Ten Commandments. The Universal Theology of the New Church; which was revealed to Lord in Daniel, chap. 7, v. 5, and in the Apocalypse, chap. 21, 2, 3. A Summary View of the Heavenly Doctrine of the New Jerusalem Church. As various opinions have been entertained respecting the nature and yet on person by rational argument been able to refute them, but instead of invidious calumnies and groundless reports have been industriously prepared to discredit the honourable and candid Author, as well as his Works, it is the earnest and sincere inquiry of the Truths of the highest importance to examine these Works for the purpose in which it is to be hoped, that the purport and love of the Truth will be found in its native excellence, and to regard them as they truly deserve, and to the end receive both profit and delight.
