This is new idea to the people oil
New England.
Did our j5mbeyn brethren fight the
battles of Lexington and Bunker hill ?
And was j: by their prowefs that Ii
conderoga was taken, and that
Burgoyne was compelled to furren-

AS to relieving our djarsDes, will
Mr.. Madiion have the goodnefs to
give US the lit Of debtor and creditor
States
Will to, lit fhew Mafachufetts
to have been delinquent IN its quotas
to the common defence ? And how
have they prepared to pay the balan-
ces due from the Southern States!
BY a fsoeeping as7, annualling all our
CLAIMS upon them
But Mr.. Madifon's writer does
not end here, he tells US "that with
out the aid of France our lndepen-
dence would never have been OBJ.
tained."
Put thefe two petitions together
and it will follow that France and
Virginia achieved our lndepen-
dence.
The New-England States-poor,
cowardly, feeble, owe all their blef-
fings to France and Virginia.
The twenty thoufand lives which
we facri6ccd, and FIVE millions of
dollars expended by US, Beyond our
quota, produced no effect, we are UNI
der obligations ne0er to BE- reqnited, to
France and Virginia.

Through the leaf populous parts of

|of 1900 prizes taken during the war,
eleven hundred Of them were brought

fay that three fourtb5 of the frigates

Tarleton with twelve hundred

This may be true, but 1t is a new

Of Mr.. Malbone, no business was transacted
in either House yesterday. The Senate
have adopted new principle upon this &C.

fifty dollars to the erection of monument

The reyerberations, from every quarter of

President spoke Of the British Government,
continue to crate harsh thunder upon the cars
of the leaders Of the majority, who, proba-
bly,, are destined soon to sink is,o the sta
ton of leaders Of feeble opposition. A
great effort, however, is TO be made to en-
able them to keep their ground, and for the
moment they will secure triumph. 1t is
indeed doubted whether even the limited
exclusion OF British armed vessels will pass
the Senate, but il is considered as ascer-
tanned that it will obtain a larger majority
in the House than was at first expected
