To drag the dark demon Of Jacobinism

| To drag the dark demon Of Jacobinism
into day, is no hard task, to vindicatc fe-
deralism is easy enough, for ashington's
example and his address explain and fix its
character and creed. But to bind the Ia
Goblin demon in chains, and in order to do
it, to rouse numb federalism into life and
action, is task, not wholly to be despair
edof, but never to be accomplished, until
genius, learning and eloquencc, combine
TO fash light and fire from the press and
Congress hall and until the men who own
money, or farms, see and trenble while
they see, that Iacobinism will never deslsr
till it has despoiled them. It is IN vain
! that we have warnings, inasmuch as three
years experience, shews we will not take
them. Weseem predessined to SLEEP and
PERISH-aud that quickly.

THIS was an action on the cafe for prsIFag
the plaintiffs hand while carrying down dance
IN an sf .mbiy rom.
For tie dstendanti was urged tina he had bren
frequently III comr.oy with the plaintiff, ihas
ihc had ever treated hia, with very great civil.
~ and that he had poiityely ihewn, by her
manner, that The was tnutn chatmtd with his
locesy, and moreover that the defendant being
partial to had, and thought this favorable OPP
portonisy Of tcfi'ying h's aftttioa. by pfefiog
the hand OF the plaintiff.
To the former paft of the plea the plaintiff
replied that he bad ever been taught TO treat with
complaiCance tbole, Whole conduct and fituasion
jultly required it, but. hc was conf lent Che had
not given the Defendant any realonable ground
for fuppofing himdelf the ohjee of her peculiar
regard, and that bis luppcfi;ion amounted at beA
TO very feeble prefumpticn. A Demurrer was
put in the latter part ct the plea that the dc.
tendant could not plead in jufifcatior, what he
fayes So favorable opportunity" Of pre6ing the
hand Of the plaintiff, fuch condstf being in dirce
violation of;the Ratute in that cafe made and
provided. By the Court Civlity j, of very
great confequence in the female chara aer, but il

in directing and exercGag it ;land although is
improper TO prelume on the favorable opinion of

urged in his extcnuation. However it was

Senate, W,igbi.-.Is is said tina; citizen Wright
arrived tie other day in Baltimore, without the
Cas;iol which he had intended to carry off on his
.@eslafrs.--W afous conjeaures were made as tie
the cause Of this disappointment. So.Ae say that
Findley pulled il away from Wright, packed It
up in . laigc wooden box'' and actually set
outSo Philadelphia with it. O.h-rs insisted thsst
Beau Dawson has put il into his vidieule and with
Rando!pb's assistance, carried it to Mr. Jefferson at
the presidents House. But Others report, and THIS
agrees with the laEesr accounts We have had from
tic city, that an old gentleman by the name of
Public Faifb, laid hold of the Capitol and would
NOT suffer il TO oe moved from the spot where il
was originally placed, and notwithstanding ne
had been very much beaten, abused, manned, and
weakened Of late by certain men high in power,
he yet had strength enough to save the Capitol &
dive of all his enemies and that it still stands un.
hurt on Capitol Hill in the city of Washing
ton. where we hope and trust it will stand fore.
