Upon this meature we fhall forbear at prefent,
TO make many Comments. The memorial has
not as yet been made public, nor has it been in
orr power to obtain the mott accurate know

with patience until the committee appointed to

Naall b. content to appeal to the fober good
lenie OF men of all descriptions, to requeft them
20 conlder and reflect what are the objects, and
wat will be the inevitable effect of this meafilre
"a meafure which we cannot heGtate to pro-
nounce inconfiderate and premature, fraught
with perniclous consequences, and calculated
eninently calculated, to diturb that harmony
and tranquility which have hitherto been our
PRIDE as well as our fecurty.
That the people OF Louifana have right to
remontrate Congrefs on the fubiett of any re-
al grievance no man can deny who merits to be
the citizen OF a Tree country; but in all cafes
OF popular remonttranccs the q.to amino is mat
ter OF very ferrous confederation. In the cafe of
Mr.. Livington's memorial it becomes queftion
OF no little curioGty to determine what are the
claims which the people, the very people who
have become fabicribcrs TO it, really with
mat the government of the U. States fhould
grant. To fay that Louiliana is capable of FORM
ing fate at the Drefent moment, according to
t!'e OF tbs r. 81 iiyiiig more
believe, than even M Bore could prove, AS
this great queltion however is predetermined,
and iince told that it is a truth unqueition-
able, that we have the right, not in future, but
at prefent, and that cangrefs have violated the
treaty of cenion, in not having given us before
tins the exercife of that right, viz. of framing
contribution of government for ourftlves and
becoming an independent fate the American
Union: We may certainly be permitted to en-
quire how, and what manner, is this fate TO be
torrncd!-Whati is 70 be the extent of its terrific
ry!-Where isto be the feat of its government !;
and what will be the annual expenie of its eta
bhhment! Ifthefc queitions cannot be fatisfaet-
oriiy antAvared, we mutt conclude that the au-
thors of this memorial complain of grievances
which they themielves NUT be confcious do not
exit, and demand rights, which if Congrefs
were at this moment TO grant, they would not
accept. In other words we mutt look for the
motives Of thefe fudden patriots, and determine
for ourielves whether they are not hazardng
the happinet3 and PROPERTY of this country for
the qualification Of their own private views and
Individual ambition.
