" The papers communicated to
Congrefs BY the PRECEDENT, are not
vet di(pofed Of nor in fact, have
they as vet been all read. From
what has appeared, and the opinions
Of thofe who have an opportunity Of
Judging the character Of the whole
budget, from the famples exhibited,
We mutt conclude they are but the
detailed account Of Plantations, the
merits Of which are already known
70 the public, excepting the MATE
RIAL Communications frsn, France,
which will nat be printed. The Pre-

public complaints ~ this communi-
cation; but the eyes Of the people
are TOO widely opened, to be deceiv-

t:2n afford no new lights to guide
them in the dark paths Of our nation
