BE the only apology offered for this
long fIence, While rniquity abounds
il will ever be time to fPeak-
While vice, irreligion and hereby are
gaining ground 10 rapidly in this
country it is certainly proper time
for the friends of virtue TO take deci-
ded ground, and rafting their warn
ing voices, proclaim the truth to a
wicked world. But fhould any ak
with Pilate, what is truth ? Then
hear. 1t is truth thar all men are in
fate of natural alienation from
Cod-that they eguaiy need the re-
newing influence Of the Holy Spirit
TO well grounded hope Of happiness
hereafter 1t is trath that men are
accountable for their actions, inaf-
much as they at freely, and hn from
choice and not from necefEty. 1t is
truth that way Of reconciliation is
opened between Heaven and earth +,
that the mythical ladder is made man
ifeit on which there is perfect fafety.
1t is truth that righteoulnefs exalteth
a nation, while fin is reproach to
any people-that no nation is in real
fecurity without The bond Of religion
| liberty and law 1t is truth that the
more people fpeculate on doctrines
or principles without anfwerable
| practice, the farther they reccds
from true virtue and happiness. II
is truth that the only real teit of the
merit of actions is the motive tina,
however men may plead for pra6fics
only, il fill remains truth that a
corrupt fountain canaot fend forth
waters bearing a fweet favor to the
throne Of God. Ii is truth that an
experimental knowledge of things per
taining to the kingdom of God is alb
! folutely necefary TO talvation. 1t i;
alto truth thar the day is at hand
when ali things will be made mani
felt, and every fecret thing brought
into Judgment, whether it be good
or whether it be evil. Theic are
fome of the truths which it is ths
duty of all men to know and declare
Thefe are fome of the fubjc6ts which

The indisposition to hostilities with
Great Britain which our administra-
ton feel, arises from no virtuous, or
meritorious source. If Mr.. Madison
believed be could go 10 war with Great
Britain, and preserve his hohuLarity,
we have not the least doubt he would
do it with all his heart. We firmly be-
lieye, that both MIR. Jefferson and Mr..
Madison, had they the power, and conld
do it with safety to their own popular.
ity, would blot Great Britain from the
catalogue of nations. That they have
malice enough towards her to do her
all the injury in their power, as far as
is compatible with the safety of their
dear idol, SELF, we entertain not
doubt. But that idol stands abreast of
all other considerations with them.
And at the same moment that we as
cribe 10 them SO yindictive a spirit as
we now have, we as firmly believe,
that IT they thought they should by
such measure promote their own po-
pularity, and perpe,uate their power,
they would without hesitation abandon
their second sef, France, and form a
strict alliance with Great Britain.
Popularity is Mr. Madison's pole
star, as it was Mr.. Jefferson's. Mel
Their of them have the least particle of
public spirit, or love of country. All
the efforts OF MIR. Madison are directed
to Que object-and that is, HIS RE.
ELECTION. Robert Smith has thrown
his camp into confusion, and reduced
him TO the necessity of placing his
hopes for success on the skill and tai
cnts OF Gallatin. Mr.. Monroe has not
been brought into the Cabinet for the
purpose Of adding 10 its strength. The
object was, to silence growing oppo-
sition in Virginia, and to secure The Suc-
ce8sion 10 me Old Dominion. Smiths
friends were weak enough to think,
that he nigh, III time mount the throne.
This daring ambition cost him his
place. Robert Smith was not dislnis-
sed tor the want Of abilities, nor for the
wanI OF integrity. Defects Of this ma.
ture are not objections in the minister
tai arrangements OF our court. Sur
rounded by the tumult which the cab
ihet schism has raised, at his wits end
10 know how to allay il, and probably
engaged IN deep consultation with his
Master Jgfferson--the Hercules of de-
rnocracy-does any rpan of sense and
reelection believe, that a man of James
Madison's temperament would willing.
~ super-add to the whole the horrors
ofwat? Ii any federaIist believes this,
ne has not carefully studied the black
pages Of democratic history. But he
may, in the midst Of his approximations,
console himself with the thought, that
if Mr.. Madison wilfally drags this
country into war with Great Britain,
il will cost him his throne, and his par
ty their supremacy. A short war will
throw the affairs Of this country back
into the hands of lederalists. The de-
mocra.s have neither integrity nor ca
pacity to manage them in time ofwar.
rhey can plumber treasury, and des-
troy government, but they cannot
commend armies, nor build up nation
on the basis of honour, justice, and yir-
tue.-CoHn. Mirror.
