Generals, Colonies, SC are atibottomsd
on that impartial principle of Democracy,
which puts up one, aud Sis down another !;
more especially, as it relates TO eCclesias-
tics, for if the hierarchy of the church had
prevailed (against' which Chauncy and
Mayhem contended) many of our modern
ID. DIS. would have been as subordinate
TO superior powers, as the respectable fra
ternity OF dissenters are now in England.
II Republicanism is not in estimation,
WHY are the United States so politely treat
ed in Europe. Our ministers at foreign
courts were never more highly notice d..
Our reputation has Increased under MIR.
Jefferson our character stands upon the
most substantial footing; and nothing but
the insolence of party, the chagrine oil fac
ton, the disappointment of ambition, and
the thirst for monarchy and aristocracy,
can interrupt that system of DEdoCRATIc
RRPuBLICANIsM, which heaven has ap.
proved and which our internal prosperity
has sanctioned. The expiring faction,
whose dissolution is announced by the
nicHrnerS about the streets, may for short
time delude few inconsidera'c young
men, and dupe number Of ignorant old
ones; d, that Being who drove out the
heathen, will never permit this country to
lall sacrifice to the insidious measures
OF avowed monarchists, or the more dam
gerous subtlety Of degenerate Republic
cans.

ON REPuBLICANISM.

ON REPUBLICANISM.
Government is founded on the genius
of the people; and their disposition is ex-
pressed by certain d fned hrincihles, which
are adopted as the basis of Their constilu-
lion. A republican form of government,
is conlormable to the civil and religious
habits of the Americans. The first set.
tiers OF this country, abandoned their ma
tive soil, to establish a mode of govern
ment analogous to those hriRcihles and
./eeiings which influenced them, while con.
troyerting the impositions Of the monar
chjcal and ecclesiastical constitutions OF
the British nation. They encountered e.
very difficulty and disaster to accomplish
the gTeatpurpose OF their emigration. T..
very measure adopted, every declaration
made, were founded on the hypothesis,
that society might exist under the mme
date patronage Of the individuals consti.
tudng the social compact,-and,i it is wor.
thy Of remark, that no body of men were
ever more peculiarly under the protect
on of Heaven, while prosecuting this i'm.
pOrtant object, than the band of patriots
who landed at Plymouth in 1920. What
history is pregnant with so many favora-
bic occurrences, as appear in every page
of the American annals The hand Of a
Supreme Conductor, seemed peculiarly
! disposed to dire6t our forefathers in the
sway in which they should go."-They
bafled every opposition, and rose in the
majesty Of their own strength, to become
/ a RefubhcaH Nation. even while under the
control Of monarchy Though few in
numbers, they appeared invincible in prin
! ciple.-They had early 10 contend against
the inroads Of civil and ecclesiastical op-
| ponents, and amidst a multiplicity Of diff.
fculues, stood firm and united in main
tanning the novel, and hazardous doctrine
of EqUai Rights.
If Republicanism is now reprobated,
would ask It's opposers, whether they can
