happy the people who call him to

Ihele remarks were brought to my
mind, by reading the Proclamation Of
The Prefdent Of the United States.
announcing that dangerous combina-
tons to defeat the execution Of the laws
for the valuation of lands and dwelling
houies, actually exit in the ta5e Of
Penniylvania, and have proceeded in a
manner fubvertive Of the juf authority
Of the government, bymijrebrsjenfafi9ns,
70 render the laws odious, and to pre-
vent the public officers Of the United
States performing their functions, by
openly threatening their lives. Ifthefe
people had any real ground for COM
plant, the mode Of faeking redrels by
petition is well known to them, and
could be eaGly relorted to. But the
fact is the reverfe. The laws were
made by the representatives Of the peo-
pie in Congreis ahembled, and APPROX
ed by the 6rlt magifrate Of the onion ;
rulers in whom confidence ought to be
placed, and who are lubied to the ope-
ration of them alike with their fellow
citizens at large. The PreGdent in
purfuance Of the powers veted in him
by the contribution and laws Of the u
nited States, has commanded the in
furgentS to dilperGe, and declared his
determination, in cafe of non -compli-
ance to call forth military force to fu1-
prels Guch combinations, and TO ca4is
the laws TO be executed. That the en-
ergy of government viii prevail, nobody
