FOURTH OF JULY.


THE Anniversary ofour Freedom and In
dependence has been celebrated in various
PAGES with more than common demonstra'
lions II Joy and festiyity. The Frightening
appearance which the political situation OF
our atsirs now exhibits, when contrasted
: Nth that "a the last year, rendered the ]u.
biiee OF the present. doubly dear to Federal
lists. t. st4a
On the 4th Of July, 1905, we beheld the
a operation OF system OF policy, arrestlng
not only the hand Of industry, but Irostrat-
rug that Liberty and Independence which
our Foreiathers purchased and sealed with
their blood. We were by arbitrary and ,y-
rannicaI laws, forbidden the use of many of
+. our natural and civil privilege; and the
fearful apprehension, that the courtry was
about to be plunged into still greater diff
culties, checked the hilarity with which
we were won't to hail the day which gave
US rank among the nations Of the earth.
Fortunately, change. of measures in the
general government. has reversed the
scene. FederalIsts now rejoice at the re-
newsl Of Commerce, & the prospect of bet.
ter times. 1t is not for men, but measures,
we contend. Let the principles of Wash
ington be pursued, then shall we be uni
ted and happy people.
The Federalists, ever true to the free
dom and independence of their country,
will perpstuate these first of objects by
cerishing the principles which led to their
establishment.
In this town, the birthday Of our Politi-
cal Existence, Wa noticed by the Federal
lists AS follows

/" fnericass N France" In our last we
published from New York paper, Captain
Folger's statement Of the oppressive and
cruel treatment he received from the gov
srnment of France, and the still more
shameful treatment he experienced from
Mr.. Armstrong, our Minister at Paris
After we had put this account in type we
noticed remarks upon it, in the Boston
Patriot "a democratic paper, which went
to invalidate the &c count published by Capt.
Fo,ger. We have long Witnessed the COM
pie,e subserviency of the democratic pres
ses in the Uni ed States to the tyrant Bona
parte, and ,heir constant endea,ours TO
palate every act of aggression on the
part of France. All we ask OK them in this
case Though we do not expect they, will
do it) is to express the same Indignation at
this conduct of The French government
and Minister Armstrong, as they would 1t
these acts had been committed by the Brlt-
ISL government, and the minister not higl,
toned democrat. We know that represcn-
taaions have lately been made TO the secre-
fary Of. State, of the cruel treatment, our
seafaring citizens who happen to he in
France, receive being confined in loath-
some prisons ss prisoners OF war, and al
lowed food scarcely sufficient to support
life
A letter lately received from a man that
sailed from this town, confirms this state
ment in every particular, whois with many
others in confinement ana represents has
suAerings to have been similar TO those
stated by capt. Folgsr.
He mentions hsving repeatedly written 10
our minister, but received no attention.
We hope and trust, under the new order OF
things, our government will enquire INTO
this conduct, and correct the procedure.
