GALLATIN's BUDCET.-By the report CT
the committee ct ways and means, in the
House of Representatives, OF the y. States,
inserted in our last it will be seen, that Mr..
Gaiiatin's budget of Stamt Iares, sc. has
received the sanction Of that committee
This proves, ,at least, thai a man may elevate
himself to power by his opposition to a sys-
tenn, and may afterwards, when in power,
come forward unUlushingly and recommend
the same system, ard still find even some o.
his former associates in opposition ready to
partake with him the odium Of his inconsis
tency and derelicton Of principle But, thank
God, there is a redeeming spirit i'll the peo-
pie which will yet purge the national councils
of apostacy, hypocrisy and intrigue! 1t is
vain, for the advocates of CallatiD's system to
tell as, that the crisis demands this sacrifice
Of their former opinions and principles at the
hands Of the republican interost.-The same
crisis existed when John Adams's Congress
proposed the same measures, that IS the pros
pect of foreign war, and yet the republican
party to aman opposed the Stanlh .4ct--and
their opposition was founded in the eternal
principles Of justice, and the sacred feelings
inspired by the revolution which gave birth
10 our national freedom. The people arc
ready to meet war if necessary, and they are
willing to bear the buithens of it, if fairly and
equally imposed---nor is there any doubt that
an enlightened cabinet, uninhuenced by the
dark spirit Of Jesuifism, may easily collect AID
combine the resources necessary for the main
tenance of our national rights and homer
But Sfa"h .dct vii! never receive the sane
al nd Ifc CT
expect to lose the confidence Of their country

The same letter adds, " English vessels
have passed the Dardanelles under their own
flag, and have, on entering the Euxine Black
sea hoisted the flag of the United States, and
with eounterfeited papers. have entered the
Russian ports. They have thus carried on an
extensive trade beyond belief. Through this
medium they have not only introduced the
products of the West Indies, but the Cottons
of the United States SO much the better for
the Southern Planters which has been re-
balea to resemble the Leyant bales, and sent
overland into France as Levant Cotton. The
charges on this transmit trade are paid by the
French merchants as insurance, and the trade
is profitable" 80 This may all be. true !;
but it fayors much of being another specimen
of the rgmarolery which is written liz France
for circulation in the United States, to amuse
the people, and to apologize for the exorbtant
sums Of money which are expended on mis-
sons to France.
