BOTtEN, MARCH 13:

The fOlowitig farewell address of Andrew Hof-
fer to his countrymen, is now circulating in the
Tyrol :--

" Tyrolese, countrymen, all you who have
known me and witnessed my condua, but particu.:
lady you whom I have seduced to a participation in
my guilt—listen to we. I address you on the
threshold of eternity, and a few moments before my
entrance into the unknown world of reward or pu-
,nishment. What I say to you is sacred truth; I
stand on the brink of the grave, 'where no mot tal
ever uttered a falsehood. A heavy burden of
crimes—the greatest crime that ever a subjeEt com••.
mated. against leis Sovereign—presses like lead poi
my soul. What in particular lied heavy upon me,
is what I have done since the. Ist of August. My
secret summons of the 4th of August, which was
circulated from distria to distria, has rendered im-
mense numbers wretched, and made my passage
into the other world in the highest degree painful.
On the other side of the grave, I behold a rigor-
ous Judge, who takes account of our minutest trans-
gressions.

" Over the passage which I 'am just entering, I
behold inscribed *, in glowing chara6ters, ` What
have you done 2 Why did you do it 1' Those who
havefallen through my means, demand back their
lives. Multitudes of wives., sisters, children, ad-
dre,s me with bitter lamentations—' give me back
my husband, my brother; my father!' I :seethe
habitations and possessions of whole families a prey
to the flames, and the reflection---` this is your
work,' pierces me to the
,heart. I advance, with a
down-cast countenance, into the presence of my
Judge, *and confesS that lam guilty. I stand before
you, countrymen, as a criminal,' and beseech you;
to forgive the calamities I have brought upon you ;-
' but I more particularly entreat you to be at all times
observant of your duties, and never more to bran-
: dish the torch of 'insurrection, nor` again, unmind-
ful of your obligations, to strive ,against•your.Own
happiness. Iteligi"on, morality, and justice were
on all occasions the expressions wherewith I incited
you to resistance. Herein 'did I wrong; for reli-
gion enjoins obedience to Sovereigns "under all cm-
cumstances; morality prescribes order and subrhis-.
sion, more peculiarly in a situation of urgency; and"
justice deafly pronounces, that he wht,:has once
been justly putin possession of any thing, cannot,
without injustice, be despoiled of it. -
" It was I who aced contrary to religion, mora-
lily, .a.nd: justice; and all, who co-operated. with me
I are bound to join with me in this confession. Yes !
countrymen, it was a self-interest of the meanest
description that tempted us to forget our duties to
God; our Sovereign, and our Country, an..l not to
• represent our actual situation in a true. light. This,
and not the welfare of all, was What we had at
head. Each wished to make booty fo'r himself and
to despoil his neighbour. With.tears• of the bitter.:
eit sorrow, I take my list leave -of yen.; and en-
.
