G. ID. Golden, Esquires--For the de-
PENDANTS, Adrian Hageman and James
Woods, Esquires. The libel was pro-
we'd, and the counsel for the defendants
did not attempt a justification Of their
clients, but endcayourcd 10 shcv, that
the plaintiff had sustained no injury hy
the publication, and was therefore Ell
titled to no damages. The jury were.
out but short time when they brought
in verde: for the plaintiff, one hum
dred and fifty dollars.
We learn that each man in the navy, for
one year Of Adams's administration, c0sk
fur hundred aud forty three dollars bur
each man in the navy during Jefferson's last
year, cost the enormous sum Of eighf hun
dred aud ninety one dollars. How are we
to account for this difference but from
fraud and Encouragement win this fact
convince the people Of their error, or viii

The inaugural speech Of lis Excellency
Gov Gerry, is much less exceptionable than
we could have right TO expect from the
general character of the political party to
whom he is indebted for his eles alton. rhe
principal objections TO 1t are, that 1t il lohgs
dry, and not particularly appropriate to the
occasion on which it was delivered. The
principles OF union which 1t inculc@tes Will
meet the appreciation OF every friend OF A.
merican Independence. All win readily
acknowledge the absolute necessity OF amor,
but the question viii still arise, on what
system Of measures shall the anon be for

to sublectIon 10 the tyrant of Europe, which
willunlte us with him IN the warfare -
gainst England ana Commerce, and give
him the entire cuntroul Of our destinies and
