The recorder. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1802-1803, 1803-03-09

JeHtrion. In coniequence OF the pre-
tent alien law, MIR. Bayard has been
thrut out Of his feat in Congreis by
rabble OF foreigners, in defiance Of the
opinion of an immcnlc majority of the
oIdett inhabitants Of Delaware fatc.
Bayard was an advocate for the fediuon
law, and therefore we are none of his
friends. But rhs is no reaion why he
fhould be turned Que OF his feat by de
mocratical perjury, which is believed
60 have been the cafe.
Formerly, the democrats complained
thar, IA Tome lnitanccs, the fees OF the
federal ,narlhali were exorbitant. They
complained Of his power in packing
jurjcs, as in all the trials for ledition, OF
which nolone delerved thc name ola tri-
al. The demos have got in. And nowrhey
find ii very convenlehl to havea we'll
paid marlhall, who will go all lengths to
lerVl his party. The power OF pack
ing continues in has hands, as much as
ever.
InCoopcr's cafe the demos complain
ed thar Chaic and Peters would not
COMPEL Mr.. Adams to attend as wit
neis, But Gnce they got in, they have
not taken ehe tnnallelt itep TO prevent
the repetition Of this infufFerabIe rnor
nifty. Adams, who quarreled with
every BODY, who turned his thrce iecre-
5aries, Mcl4enry, Wolcot5, and Picker
ing ouc OF Office, Adams, thar cowardly,
unfeellng ryranr, refuted either TO con
fets or deny that he wrote the paper in
queition before the court. Harper, on
the floor of Congrcfs defended this out
rage upon Jutfice, and We really believe
hln 10 be man OF almoit as much prin-
clPle ana probi5y, as either Chait or
Adams.
Have the demos made a better Of
the buiinelss They have not. The mon
itrous fab inflicted upon the coni9itu-
ton remains without falve, and Cbale.

thence amounts 70 al appreciation. Mr..
JeHerion knows very we'll that he NAV

thar he may find it very inconvenicDr.
IN his rt1rn, either co COMETS r dcny tho

attorney general of Virginia: and in
