boast OF those acquainted with tue lie
and principles Of this gentleman, to
know that all the democratic reflections
on him, are absolute falsehoods. Lies
invented by gang of vile and unprin-
cipled factionists in this state, and cir
au!atcd merely for electioneering Dur-
oJses. Ask these libellers of virtue &
talents for the evidence they found the
charges agains, Mr.. Gore upon and
they are dumb or compelled to resort
tn sophistry As proof of his being
under British influence, they can say
The has been III England. But the DEM
ocratic printers dare not inform their
readers that In obedience, at the request
and by the appointment OF Washington
he went there TO prosecute the claims
Of American citizens against the Brit
ISL government for illegal captures
which commission he executed in a
manner which me, the high approba-
ton OF President Washington, and the
claimants.
Instead Of stating these facts as the
obiec, Of Mr. Cores going to England,
the democrats say that he was born and
educated in that country. During the
revolutionary war he shouldered his
muske, as volunteer in support OF
his eountry's rights and independence.
Instead of publishing this fact, the de-
mocrats have asserted that he was a
Lieutenant on board Mowatt's ship
when he burnt Falmouth. When the
federal constitution was under consie-
Grafton in the convention OF Massachu-
sets, he was a member, and ably and
zealously advocated its adoption. In
stead of stating his patriotic and honor
able exertions IN these situations, the
democrats tell the people he is an odd
tory" and an enemy TO the American
constitutions, These are only few
of the iilshoods spread through the
state, by those who are striving to get
into power and Office themselves by
defeating the election of Mr.. Gore,
who is, and has uniformly been the
firm and undertaking advocate of the
liberties and independence of the Uni
ted States.
But the part Mr.. Gore performed as
one of the legisla,u e the year past, will
forever insure him the opposition ofthe
enemies Of commerce and the parti-
zans of Jefferson, Bonaparte and Ty-
ranny. He disapproved Of the destruc-
ton of our commerce, OF the violation
of our constitutional rights and liber-
ties in the arbitrary and oppressive
provisions in the embargo laws. If
he had remained a silent spectator of
the unwarrantable encroachments Of
the administration of the general gov.
eminent, he would have been unworthy
the countenance of freemen. And for
this he is charged with a disposition to
divide the Union. But let the people
remember that only those are the true
friends of the union, who contend for a
wise and faithful administration Of the
Federal Constitution, whilst those who
approve of its being violated, are its
most deadly foes.

were DESTROYS of peace-,hat the mis-
sion OF Mr.. Rose failed by our admin

alarmed. Yet this was lately done IN
many places in the county where |
live. If the people submit to such
conduct, their boaslsd freedom is but a
name. They are slaves /; and soon
they will find to their sorrow, that they
will not be permitted to exercise the

freedom of election is thus violated,
our republican government must soon
fall, never more to be enjoyed.

racters, to be met with, and to them his
friendship WAS very dear. Notwithstand-
ing he could converse with great propriety
upon more learned subjects, and had no
small share OF political information, and well
understood many tie common occupations
oflife yet, 1t was abundantly evident, that
religious conversation was his darling topic,
and his pious friends thought, that in this,
he excelled most others. In sentiment, he
was a strict calvanist, and in attainment, a
scholar and learned divine. In his preach
ing he AIMED more to convince the under.
standing, andNnform the heart, than to de-
light the fancy, or awaken the passions
HIS sermons were greatly deficient in what
is calculated to please the taste of modern
infidels, but they were ever full of real in
struction, and real piety; and christians
were frequently ravished with the divine
truths he delivered. The first text he prea,
ched in this town may be found in the l.
Cor. Cd chap. and ID YER. and that was the
main subject of his preaching till his death,
for he often spoke with Misrepresentation of
those discourses which were chiefly on
vain philosophy, and chose rather to preach
Jesus Christ and him cruci6ed. During
the whole of his ministry, (for nearly forty
ytafS1 Tic was never aDstnt from PUBIC
worship, on account of i'll health, but two
Sabbaths. Through the whole Of his late
sickness he was remarkably composed, pa
tent and submissive, and appeared a living
evidence OF real religion, from which cir
cumstance lis visiting friends derived great
satisfaction. And he was heard 10 say, Just
before he expired, That he did not know,
that he had had a doubt on his mind, with
respec, to his own future well being, since
his sickness and we firmly believe, that he
had abundantly, the consultations of,hat reli-
gion he had so long professed, and so faith
fully and successfully preached.
Thus lived, and thus died, in good old
age, the Rev. MIR. GILMAN, our worthy and
beloved Pastor. He has left behind him
seven Children, and an siIeotionatc Church
and Parish, who will not cease 10 mourn his
loss. May the recollection of his virtues ex-
cite their emulation, and his example guide
their future steps in life.
