has depauperated. demoralized, and
lisgraced our country. We might
nave resisted the DEGREES Of France;
and forced our trade. in every part
Of the globe where we found it pro-
iitable. Thus we should have escap.
ed the commercial quarrel with
Great Britain, which has ended in
this anhallowed war land, what is
gilmore consequence thar all besides,
I've should not only have enriched
and strengthened our country, but
have preserved its honor. All this
is asserted on the superstition. that
the friends Of the Navy bad exereis-
ed the government.
But il has been far otherwise.
The Navy has been discouraged and
depressed ;--our trade has been fct-
tered and hand. cutfed our re-
sources and wealth, hssipated and
destroyed ;-and the country plung-
ed int war, wholly unprepared.
The remains Of our little Navy, has,
almost against the will of those who
declared war. saved their characters
from utter blight and death. Like
lie scarf of Lucothea on the bosom
OF Ulysses, il has rescued the drown
Ing honor Of the nation.
The leaders Of the party in power
aew pretend, that they have always
favored a Navy. This is one of the
most unGounded and impudent claims
that human nature ever had the au-
daeit. TO make. Ii parlakes of all
the attributes Of falsehood, effronte-
ry, and fraud.
The majority, however, of those
who favor the present Administra-
ton, make NO such pretences. They
honorabIy confess change in their
opinions; and We congratulate, not
only them, but ourselves also, on
that change. We trust, we shall yet
find them uniting with us on other
subjects and shall combine our ef-
ioris, for the Homer and Glory Of
or Country.

For the Alcrandria Gazette:


A number OF the Inhabitants of the
town CT Warrenton, and its vicinity In
Fauquier county, having this day assem-
bled at ThompsoD's Tavern for the pur-
pose Of expressing their opinions IN re-
lalisn to the establishment OF a Bank
in Alexandria, part of the capital of
which is proposed to be subscribaoe in
the stock OF incorporated turnpike road
companies. The meeting after appoint.
ing President and Secretary, proceed.
ed to the consideration Of the subject,
and unanimously agreed on tho propric.
~ of encouraging and patroDizing by all
means in their power such an institu-
ton, and also agreed on the following
expression Of their sentiments, to witt
That they consider it the interest, and
believe il to be the wish, of the infabi-
tanls Of the country around, to establish
a moro certain and commodious inter.
course with the Distric, of Columbia,
and with Alexandria in particular, as the
most commercial part of the district.
That they view it to be no less the inte-
rest of that Town, to have established
such connection; as thereby very
considerable accession to its trade will
be ensured, which has heretofore been
lost to il, from tho circumstance OF the
roads to it being impossible in the win
ter and spring months. That therefore
any measure which will have the effect,
OF giving value to the stock OF the turn
pike read authorised TO be made, and
now partly completed, from the Little
Turnpike Road to Fauquier Court
House, highly merits the supporter that,
as we'll as this portion Of the comnnniY,
in carrying it into effect; ADD consequent
ly rendering successful the operations OF
Bank, which shall in its provisions con-
template the promotion OF an object, SO
important to their mutual .eitarc-
The known facility with which this road
might be extended to the intersection OF
the Staun,en & Alexandra road, with
saving oil the distance of more than forty
miles Of the present rout, between those
places, greatly enhances The importance
OF the subject to the public, and when
i, is further recollected that, this Turn
pike Road points out in 1t, direct CONT
nuation, the nearest possible rout, from
the seat Of government to the centre OF
the population of kentucky, leading
through the Kenhswa settlements, 1t
certainly becomes entitled to eonsidera
ton in national point OF view. Nor
can ,hi. meeting, lose sight Of the ad
y.n,aees to be derived TO the nelsbbor-
ing part. of tue state, from the opera
ton of such cause, on the value OF the
stock Of those other wards, which ere
