Portland gazette and Maine advertiser., 1810-03-31

Congress during the whole of the present
session, have done nothing but play and tri-
tie with the feelings and the zoishes, the hopes
and the fears of the people whose interests
appear to have been wholly neglected. A
midst the crooked and selfish measures that
they have from day to day adopted, to qul!
their constituents, and preserve their own
popularity. Soon after Congress met in the
month OF November last, Mr.. Callatin made
MS report, IN which, among other things,
he PLAINLY says the Non Intercourse Law
was useless IN its operation, as it could new
er be faithfully executed and he by his O.
pinion condemned the measure as unwise,
Ever since that Report, it has been the opin.
ION OF every one, that the law was childish
and nonsensical our administration knew
this ; and tits openly said by both parties in
Congress. WHY then has it not been re-
pesled Why Is the law continued in force
10 hamper and reiplex the merchants TO
derange their plans and destroy their hopes !
Several mo2ths have our wise Rulers had
the subject before then-and when our
hopes were raised BY the news from Wash
lngton, that the Law was immediately 10 be
repealed, that the Senate had passed the
Law these hopes were blasted--the house
o.. Representatives refused to agree with
the Senate, and 'tls understood that Congress-
have gwen up al idea Of doing any thing
further on the subject. The Layu SuiH not Be
repeated rs it possible to feel respect for
our Rulers, when they refuse to repeal a
law 80 distressing to our commerce, when
they openly acknowledge that the law is
useless ard pernicious {" Woe unto that
people whose Prince is a child" Our Ru-
lers are ashamed Of their own proceedings.
They tried the Embargo as long as the PEG.
PIE would submit to such folly and oppres.
SION they found Il injured no power on
earth but ourselves. Then they repealed
hat, and substituted the Non-Intercourse
That is found 70 be exactly as foolish and
restrictive As the other--It INJURIES ourselves
only : and vet our Rulers are ashamed to re-
feai y, because they are afraid it will ap-
pear to be an acknowledgment to the world
OF the weakness other heads as we'll as the
'mpurity OF their hearts. They have not
se1Se, integrity and INDEPENDENCE enough 10 do
right and having done wrong--committed
The most fatal mistakes and adopted the
most destructive measures they have not
caucor enough to retrace their steps and
tell the natijn the truth with trankness and
honesty. Shame We should never forgive
TINS meanness in an individual, and why
should the case be altered, because hun
dreds are engaged in the same course OF
deiusion--the same system OF ruinous ex-
pertinent and obstinate perseverance, In
spite of conviction DAVID.

The Trade OF Maine.
FELLow-C CITIZENS,


In calling your attention to the APP
preaching election, and requesting you
to support the federal candidates,it isnot
because we are contending for men, but
il is TO measures we look. For one mo-
ment take into your view the situation of
Maine-exanine It's natural and local
advantages. Call to mind the prosper
ity you enjoyed. when your general
government was administered by feder-
al men, and compare it with what you
have experienced under the adrninistra-
ton ofdemocratic rulers. When Fed
eralists were in power, your lumber,
your fish, and every article Of produce
commanded high price, and ready
market. During the existence Of the
Embargo, you were compelled to sell
all these articles at less than one half
the price you might have obtained, had
not ruinous measures been resorted to.
The endorsements OF the embargo
times are still fresh in your recollection.
Your sufferings are also fresh in your
recollection. You know that Gerry,
Gray, King and their associates did ev-
cry thing in their power to proIong tbs
Embargo and all the sutferings and pri.
vations you experienced under it. The
consequence would have been, not only
the produce, but even your farms would
have been sold under the hammer. The
mechanic would have been destitute of
employment and most Of The merchants
and traders would have been reduced
to bankruptcy and poverty. II this is
desirable state of things, 60 vote for
Gerry, Gray, King and those men who
made Skinner treasurer, who pIuAder-
ed your treasury of &c, 1000 dollars.
Go vote for such men who support
those men in Congress, who pass nom
intercourse laws, which prohibits the
citizens Of Maine from sending their
timber to England, which would now
sell for one dollar per foot, and other
articles IN like proportion. But when
you are called upon for the payment of
your debts and taxes, do not complain.
You will be the voluntary Instruments
OF your own destruction, il political
sense, you viii be self-murderers.
