From tie Balrifnort WLiR
a democratic Pdper
EXTRAORDINARY!

Extraordinary things are constantly
turning up. On Saturday last the sec
rotary Of the treasury communicated
his budget TO the committee Of ways
and means, in congress, comprehending
his favouIite wh'skey tar, stanh tar,
salt tax, and several direct taxes, sc.
&c.
But what is most remarkable, Eos
ter, the British minister knew and
spoke Of the contents Of this budget a
fortnight ago. and seemed so delighted,
shat he said it would sfagger tie zvar
shirits when it came 10 be known, and
would paralize many who were SO hot
fsr war! Is it not wonderful that Brit
ish minister should be possessed of the
secretary's scheme before the cornmit-
tee OF ways and means This is a good
commentary on MS 80 conversation
With ErSkIne-What state Of things !.
People of the United States, while
such creatures as Gallatin and Eustis
are kept In place, you shall have no war
no recovery of rights or respect for
character. Nothing but ie8nitism, de-
Jav, crOokedness, intrigue. He 7yho re-
tain8 them mat &c as cad as they. The
president is accountable for the conduct
ct his secretaries.
Portland gazette and Maine advertiser., 1812-02-03

7ares.--We shall not be so unjust 70
ourselves as TO pretend that a govern.
ment can be supported without taxes.
RS well might an individual expect to
support himself and family without :
cent IN bis pocket and without any
means OF getting any. But what we d.
say, IS, that II i'll becomes those who
have been building up popularity b,
crying out agalnts taxes, to resort e
them IN the first difficulty that they
have met with, and to lay them on with
heavier hand than the federaists ever
did, without the merit Of having discov
ered any new item. They told The
people that sound principles wouI,
not justify taxing their industry 10 &C.
eumelate treasure for wars to happen
'hey knew not when, and which miqbt
not perhaps happen, but from the tenn.
iations offered by that treasure .
hese are Jeiierson's own words in his
hrst message. II begot him a world OF
popularity, and he enjoyed and lived on
me treasure already provided 10 his
hahds BY his predecessors, until he has
spent 1t all, and then he took bis leave.
'e+ihS congress, as lie went of, that
mere was such surplus Of money, thar
they must devise what to do with -,
All The tederalists could say, went for
nothing We told the people that this
was nothing but sham, but they would
not believe US: they went a whorinp
alter Their false Gods !" and at length
they are compelled 10 see the conse.
