In the debate upon Fortifcations, Mr..
Talmadge remarked that he bad never been
disciple of the gun-boat school. as he had
always believed that Notifications would be
necessary to protect the gunboats. Wheth.

sold for so per cent. of the original cost, or
would net bring cent, would make no d:f-
ference in bis vote respecting Fortifcations.

The Manworshippers, put to their
wits end to keep up the sinking popu-
larily OF their IDOL, have recourse to
a multiplicity of arts. Among others,
they publish speeches pretended to have
been delivered in the British Parliament
But whether delivered in London, or
wrote by Frenchmen in New-York is
impossible to ascertain, neither IS 1t
very material. These Idolaters pre-
tend to deprecate every thing British !;
yet they are compelled to resort to
British testimony, as if the people OF
the United States were incapable OF
judging of the policy of their rulers,
without the assistance of foreign evi-
dence. For our part, we believe the
inhabitants of America capable ofjudg-
ing Of the internal policy of their gov
eminent without the assistance of either
England or France, real or imaginary.

Connecticut Prosecutions.

It is wonderful that it should be made a
question by whom the prosecutions for hbels
in Connecticut were instituted. Mr.. JEFF
ferson, in bis second Inaugural Speech, re-
commended to those who had leisure foy the
PURPOSE, to subject to the salafary eoerfior Of
fhe Tau, the libellers of himself and other
great and good men. Mr.. JeffersoA's Dis
trict Attorney in Connecticut, not being We.
ry much pcstered with clients, had ample
leisure, very naturally took the hint, and
went about the good work. Thus IT Is
nHMoNsrRArEp, that those prosecutions
were instigated. ifnot insatuted,by that illus.
trious enemy Of common law (no very good
friend either of common sense) the late
President of the United States.-Ibid.
