animated them, now iweeps over A.
merica, dearoying its happinels and
waiting its conifitutional itrength. -
The inlatiable fpifit of Innovation
omniverous innovation, which, like a
certain animal, proereates eternalEy,
and then devours It's offspring, now a
gitates the union. With change after
change it is un.atis6ed. Tacobinifm,
at this moment as much alive, though
not TO- actively languinarY, in Amer-
ca as it once was IN France, has now
brought this union to the lalt ifation OF
that political anticlimax-the lowelt
Aep in that ladder by which it brought
down that great country to the gralp
Of foreign ufurper, and by pretty
much the fame means, o. the differ
ent ranks, which, in fpite of mans ef.
forts, Nature ereets, and ever will e
reef, in every country, by means Of
her bounteous gifts of talents and vir-
tues, Iabobinifm ever aims at the de-
Rruaion Of the hlghe.f, and contrives
BY cunning ilratagem to enlia all the
inferior ranks sgainR it, and BY ex-
citing all the bad pafions, jeaiouiy,
fulplcion, and envy, to beguile them
into one common cauie, as if againH
a common enemy No looner has ia
cobini(n completely effected this than
it creates further divihon, and lepa-
rates from the mails the next rank, who
are little to be pitied, as they had
joined in deltroying the 6rlt: Thus it
fucceeds, cutting off piece by piece,
till gets the dregs OF the loclety to
the top. When that is done, then ia
cobinifm is triumphant, for thofe are
her own appropriate inaruments; and
with thoie, The, or lome of her favor
lite minions, in ihape of a depot,
rules the whole, and rules thole very
inifruments themfelyes. In the proie-
cution of this. plan, ihe calumniates.
or eulogizes jui as fuits her purpo(e,
truth being to her alien and abhorrent.
In depreciation of thole ihe wills to
put down, there is no fallehood, how
ever glaring, no ealumny, however
infamous, that fhe will heitate to ut
ter. To advance thole whom fhe |
wilheS to fucceed, there is no eulogy
however falfe, falfome, or bloated,
which fhe will not beftow, and zeal the |
gift with the facred Ggnet Of an oath.
Thofe whole praile ihe trumpeted and
fwoe to yetterday, to-day ihe will ca
illuminate on oath in their turn. And
thus go, calumniating one let Of men
out of office, and eulogizing another,
and a worie, into it, in endlefs fuc-
cefioh, till ihe accompanies her pur-
pole.
IF the reader will look to the north

plihed and foon fee the denouement
