WHEREAS, owing TO the multiplicity, VAR.
ETY. and Importance Of the objects, to which Tho
attention OF the government of the United
States has been necessarily directed, since til
commencement ofthe present war between the
United States and Great Britain. [ e povern
nent fthe United States has not vet prov;de,,
adequate means of defence, for the maritime
frontier of this commonwealth, against the
common enemy Of the Union; and whereas
there ~ strong reason 10 apprehend an invasion
of this commonwealth before the government
OF the United States can now provide sueb
means OF defence; and whereas, therefore -
Is deemed expedient and necessary that this
state, Wy IFS own authority, provide such means
OF defence trusting and expecting that the on.
yernment Of the United Sites will Reimburse
20 this state all reasonable expences incurred
m consequence thereof:
Be IL therefore enacted By fhe General A,s,,,

itg." BAsBiRGToN.
IN our fra number we commenced the
examination of the petition which was
pnbllhed with IT. The petitioners after
Eating the heavy expenies which executive
ly fall on the militia and their honorable
and unqueaionable CLAIMS on legfi4tive
relief, propole that "the whole If the
militia be furni lhed with arms and equip
ments at the expenfe of the fate, that each
folder actually performing duty n ould be
allowed one dollar per day and that in.
ftead OF four part days, be ihould be fub
jected to duty fix or eight whole days in a
year"
The fri con to the comm 1nwealth of
arming and equlping the different cops,
would on a tair calculation amount to
Q o,ooo dollars This however once paid,
is done with--the expenfe of keeping up
rtquiiite M mber of arms Afterwards would
be only in proportion To the increale ri in
hab ants liable t. military duy and would
b. very Il flng. The other contemplated
grant for the pay OF privates would b. IN
annual expente of about 100000 dollars,
on the calculation that 30 coo non.com.
millianed Officers and ptiydtes would be
returned as having performed duty fix
days IN the year, not half the fun now eX-
pended by thoie who dc military duty.
The mode fuggeaed by the petitioners by
which Comfortable portion of this money
might be RATED is calculated 10 leflen the
alarm which weuld be created in the
minds of many at the mention of luch large
fums. Whatever proviiions Handing laws
may have made, to protoe q uumberiefs civil
officers from military duty, We think, from
the letter and ipirit o. the contribution,
there are very few under this government,
and thnfe high m executive offices, who
are eogfifgtioqaGy exempted from military
duty. rhere ar thoic, 10 x .ure, to-
wards whom the cousteiey of the law
ought To be extended and they are public
and priTate teae GerJ. We do not contend
that judge ot the bench. members of the
leglllature, iheufs, iuaees of the peace,
&c. &c. ought 10 give their perional fer
vices; but that they ihould pay military
tax as an equivalent ;--iaalmuCh as all
theie receive 6 cOmpenialion for their fer
wees m proportion TO them. The tx
emption OF fuch, IS an eseiafve priVilcdge
obtained diiiinel from others of the cum
munitY, aid not warranted by the canfi.
