For he National MtciHgencer.

The address of Robert Smith, Esq. to the
people Of the United States, has placed me
in situation where silence would give sane
,ion 10 imposturc. My relative official posi-
ton with regard 10 the late Secretary OF
State, may have impressed the publck mind
with ideas Of tho gratitude which ! may be
supposed 10 owe him anc, certainly, there
has been no period of time at which have
not cndcavoured to respect him. 1t is for the
world TO decide how lar personal motive
ought 10 weigh against tho performance OF
publick Justice But II appears 10 me that no
obligation Of friendship imposes the duty OF
concealment on one party, when the other
has perverted facts, and employed that per-
version for an improper purpose. Without
pretending 10 satisfy tho scrupcs Of men
~bo have haircds TO crafty or views Of ann
bilion to accomplish, must call the attention
Of my fellow citizens, to this simple truth,
that it has been the voluntary act OF Mr..
Smith himself, that he has placed me IN
dilemma which compels me TO speak, or 10
be fa,hless TO the government which have
sworn TO suppori.---It is to me, ] can assure
him, the most painful Of all tasks and in
executing ii with every possible tenderness,
do it with reluctance that gives pang to
my heart.
I declare, then, to the American people,
that the letter inserted at page IL OF tho
pamphlet Of Nlr. Smith, addressed TO Gen.
John Armstrong and the letter inserted at
page % Of the same pamphlet, addressed 10
Gen. Turreau, were written by myself, with
the exception Of one paragraph in the latter,
which understood was written by Mr.. Mad.
ison that they are without any particular
dictation from Mr. Smith the production OF
my pen that the motives and the views con-
nec,ed with the letter to Gen. Turreau, con-
comissp,ly declared by Mr.. Smith arc known.

THOMAS PAINE.

That infamous string of libels published b-
Cheetham, called " the Life of Thomas Paine, %
30 disgrsceful to our country, is not yet forgot
ten, although it is fact descending down the tide
/ of time to the ocean of forgetfuliness. While
collecting materials for that work, he addressed
letter to Mr.. Joel Barlow. This drew from the
mastery peno that writer the subjoined sketch
kor the portrait of Paine. A more precise & el
egant outline of character has not often been
drawn. Theastrokes are few but they ere ex-
act {; faithful to truth clear, strong and impair
tial. How different from the daubng Of Cheet-
Eam that miserable man, now more, was
unknown to Mr. Barlow, who seems to have
distrusted his fidelity well as his talent for
the work he had determined 10 execute. He e.
cidently wishes to dissuade Cheetham from wri-
ting; but If he cannot do this, he desires at least
Go trace out path for him TO pursue, that the
yorld may not be too grossly led astrsy, and
deceived as to the real character of Paine.
We have been obligingly favored with copy
of Cheetham's letter, and the answer of MIR.
Barlow.-We submit them both as records of
." the passing tiding of the times" The known
