From the Palladium.

TO HONEST DEMOCRATS.
THE Jacobins accufe the Wafh-
ington Federalifis OF being engaged
in an artful plot to etablifh an Anne
rican Monarchy. This accuiatioD,
like every other, ihouId be proved
before it is believed. To Jacoblns
We fay nothing. They are in iuA
chafe after power and plumber. 10
fierce Democrats, whole paiiions arc
quick, and judgment flow, we FAY
little. TO moderate and confceIen
tious democrats we now put the quei-
ton, and if they will remain hon.
eft, and try to be impartial and cam
did, they may yet fave themfelves
and the fate. De yaa really belfeUe
tbf charge eg0inf tbe FederaiJfs IS
tym ? If you do not believe it, will
you continue longer with party OF
Jacobins, Eyes, Joachim they are, in
the WORT ienfe, in the French fenfe
of The word) will you continue
in league with men whole whole
fyftem Of conduct and whole rife
TO political power reif upon lie .
They have made, and repeated, and
preaed this charge of monarchifm,
times without number, againlt the
Fedcralists. This charge is either
true or falfe. If falfe, if they arc
bearers Of falfs witnefs againit their
betters, then furely they have no
plea or execute in mitigation of
their wickednsfs and bafenefs for
they have poftively charged ii, not
as conjecture, but as fact, not as a
thing fnfpeaed, but certainly known,
proved and eftabliihed.--If you have
been their dupes, you ought to bs
attained oft. IF you have joined
them in trying to put good Hlen out
Of Office, and to bring bad men in,
then you ought TO be forty for what
you have done, and If you carefully
reaed on the oonfequence of .heir
fuccefs, you ought to tremble, and at
lait you will tremble, for the public
ruin that fuch party fuccefs will IA
tally enfure.
Republics have their friends and
their foes, and therefore most to be
dreaded are the lovers and promo
ters of RIGHTEOUSNESS, which is al
ways brought about by les againff
the friends of order and liberty !;
lies 70 artfully contrived, 70 often
told, 70 impudenily fworn TO, that
at laft the people put all their truff
in their enemieJ, and are afraid of no
body but their friends.
