"Of Messrs. Moore and M'Kim's respec

/ has higher opinion than the editor. But
as these gentlemen have contributed tbeh
full share 10 dishonour this nation, al the
last session Of Congress, we cannot feiase
.pv communication which relates to then

Now we should like TO know how
| such food as this will SIT on the stomachs
ofthe sovereign heotile OF this country,
and especially of the State OF Maryland
Here's an Irishman, imported doubtless
for the valuable purpose OF. instructing
the benighted people OF the United
States in the principles OF freedom and
independence, about which we know so
little, and Irishmen so much. We'll,
the people Of This country have pamper-
ed this fellow, until feeding on some
thing better than potatoes, he has grown
antic, and kicks at those who have made
him a man Of consequence. I" 1hfs
aqua65ie," says Mr. Irvine," IS beneath
orr interference. WHAT'S I" this squad
bic" that the people of Maryland have
engaged in, which is so extremely de-
based, as to be beneath Mr.. b~U1ne's
interference" ? Nothing more nor less
than abe election of couple OF men,
bers Of Congress for the Baltimore dis
trict. 1t is probable that hereafter, no.
thing short Of Presidential election,
viii carry front enough to engage the
attention OF these dignified bog-tr
Let those who have furnished them
with opportunities to shcw their impu-
dence, put up with it. 1t is dish OF
their own cooking, and it is no more
than justice that they should swallow it.
In the same paper, Mr.. " jthig"
speaking ofthe electionsin New-Hamp-
shire and Rhode Island, says" As
things hare been 50 grossly niiSmanGged
BY nominal republicans during the three
last sessions Of Congress, zoe candidLy
confess, 7oe had rather see a fczv more feds.
IN the House-theu are preferable TO
qulds and dastardly Republicans" Now
this is exactly what federal:sts have al
ways predicted, viz. that the Jeffersoni-
ans, (for they are those whom Irvine
calls nominal republicans, guilds, and
dastardly fepuolicans) would misman-
age things whenever they took charge
of the government. The federalists
knew rirar TREY had not capacity enough
to administer our public affairs, even if
they had been ever SO honest ;-and
they also knew that they were not over
stocked with honesty, and Of course,
that the time would sooner or later ar
rive, when the democrats themselves
would, if they spoke the truth, with
MIR. Irvine, " candidly c0nfesS," that
they had rather see more .fcderalistS ia
Congress, and fetre'- Of The Jefersonians.
Bad as the situation of our affairs is, it
would not be irretrievable, If this senti-
ment were more generally felt, and
practised.-Ibid
