QOINCY'S CANNON HALLS.
The morality, religion and patriotism of
Mr.. Quincy NAV b. well appreciated by the
pubic, when they are informed, that he is
n Carrying on q Foundery for casting
cannon Bats. and has contract at this mo
ment with Mr.. Secretary JONES for furnish
ing the government with ninc hundred fAou
sand POUNDS of Balls, tn annihilate the enc
my and very probably the very balls that
DESTROYED the enemy on Lake Erie were
manufactured at his foundery. Yet the m :
ralty OF the uan that furnishes the fatal IN
struments, will not permit him to rejoice at
the victory gainedby his own balls. This
is species of insrattude, absurdity and
folly without example. He certainly ma
nutactures good solid balls and thew tell
well he pockets the cash from the con
tract the government reaps a harvest of
glory, and the Bui7oark Of our religion is
iaid PROSTATE by his solid arguments--yet
ne hnds that IL gives great discomfort, and
ne VIII not rejoice. What will his friends
in England think of his morality, when
they hear this ? We wish the Secretary of
the Navy would purchase balls of some per
son that can heartily and sincerely rejoice
at the victories they gain, and the destruc-
ton they deal to the enemy. 1t would be
more becoming and better conport with
Mr. Quincy's religious feelings, if he WIS to
establish anufactory of Bibles, and put
them into the hands Of his followers, to i'm
press upon Their minds the immortality and
Injustice of the war against England. This
would be helping the Bniwark of his refpf
g'on to some purpose-but TO manufacture
cannon ball to- put them to death is most
horrible outrage. To hold up an idea to
the enemy that he will not rejoice at their
defeat, and at the same time keep supply
ing the deadly balls, is one of those neon
sistencies to be reconciled only on the score
ct avarlce. l will kill you with my balls
but mind, will not rejoice-I will insult
